The way our politicians appoint SAs and SSAs is crazy.

Obasanjo that Tinubu and ACN/APC insulted met inflation at double digits and left it in single digit. That man is still the best president we’ve had since return to democracy.

MetaMatrix:
Funny mind this old tribalist' traitor. He's never ashamed of his old age.
He's the chase of all these. Never want anyone with glory but himself alone. Been parading himself as Yoruba rather than Onitsha prince

You and I know that Obj is a far greater, better and more accomplished leader and person than Tinubu can ever be. Tinubu himself is aware of this.

phemray:
But honestly he did all u mentioned. And it's natural to brag about what you can do very well when others can't. No lies. The issue is to get the economy right back to bearable level and we moved on. No gain with no pain but unfortunately Nigerians didn't want any pain but magic in economy. If dollar at 1k plus will be the rate that will make nigerians prosperous, why not. after all, dollar was once lesser than 1 naira in Nigeria before some people forefathers derailed the democracy and introduced coup and curruption started since then till today.

He built Lagos? Obvious lies.
He made Lagos economy 5th in Africa? There’s no available fact or proof to back this up. The closest Lagos got to was projected to be 6th biggest economy in Africa; that was in 2016 during Ambode’s reign.
He tamed the Atlantic Ocean? Eko Atlantic City? How has that stopped annual flooding in Lagos?

Omoawoke:
You wish you peter obi could do same, unfortunately nothing to brag about

Tell me if all I mentioned are not lies. To show how lowly you fanboys think, everyone that speaks against the calamity called president is a Peter Obi supporter.

That’s what he’s best at doing. Bragging.
I tamed the Atlantic Ocean.
I built Lagos.
I moved Lagos economy to 5th largest in Africa.
All na lies.

Oil boom help our GDP 1999 - 2015

You have a phone and can access google. Do a quick search and see for yourself.

joseph1832:
... Nobody held Buhari to order, or is it ransome when Sanusi was deposed by Ganduje, eh?

Soldiers were not deployed to Kano to protect Sanusi when he was deposed. He left quietly and peacefully even when he was exiled to Nassarawa.

SlavaUkraini:
What was done to Binance executives ?

Their Platform was been used to manipulate the national currency and you expect the government to keep quiet ?

Nations around the world are banning Binance from operating there and you want Nigeria to become their IDP Camp ?

That would not happen

If Total energy invest 10 Billion dollars in Nigeria and we later discover that they are into crude oil theft or other illegal activities, then their executives must face the laws of the land.

Naira has gone back up after the arrest of the executives. Who’s to blame for the rise again?

Customs charge 1500+ per usd as duty fee.

Rivers state

You should thank El Rufai and other northern governors that stood firmly behind Tinubu emergence as flag bearer.

These two Emirs should settle this in the old fashioned ways. Challenge to single combat. The winner keeps the throne.

PressMyButton:
Sanusi wasn't the choice of the kingmakers, Bayero was.

Since there are 2 families, Late Bayero’s can’t take over from his father as it has to rotate to the second family.

BondRiv:
This is not a compliment. Tinubu is making a lot of political mistakes. When he will need to stamp his authority, it will be of no effect. Change course now. Nothing like non interference. Stay on this course and regret it.

Buhari that is a Fulani man did not interfere when Ganduje deposed Sanusi III in 2019, you expect a Yoruba president to put mouth?

Xenob:
I like Honda too, but my friends keep mentioning Honda’s Leg issues.

Two days ago I saw a Mercedes Benz ML350 with torn legs while trying to make a u turn.

How you maintain your car goes a long way.

You cannot beat a child and still tell him how to cry.

Why ask for 615K naira in the first place?

You gave these government officials chance to take you as jokers.

I hope those saying 100k is too small aren’t business owners that pay staff salaries. Because you will have to pay 100K naira monthly to your least paid staff.

kunle4toyeyaho:
So,If you find yourself in the situation Tinubu found himself at assumption of office,you will continue borrowing to pay for oil subsidy? Would you continue to rely on paltry $3.7b external reserve to defend Naira?
Yes,I agree PBAT was hasty at taking some economic decisions but those decisions are necessary.
Well,you sound so pained that PBAT is ruling you and your family,I feel your pain bro.#Wounded obidient!

But this government is still borrowing and paying petrol subsidy. Even more than what previous administrations paid.

We need to modify the constitution that allows traditional rulers to be appointed and deposed by governments.

The constitution should provide guidelines and modalities for traditional rulers and stools but not give governors power to appoint and depose as they wish.

Appointment should be done the way it was always done, by king makers.

Those of us that do not like the old anthem because it was composed by the British have no other reason than that.

In terms of unity and diversity, the old anthem recognizes that in its lyrics much better than the current one.

Since we want to completely erase our colonial history, why not change the country’s name from Nigeria to something new.

The govt should pay $100 equivalent then. GEJ paid 18k which at that time was over $100

Why do some people feel the president needs or have to intervene in state matters?

Kano people aren't complaining, just as they did not complain when Sanusi was deposed, there is no civil unrest in Kano state, why should the president intervene in the state's matter?

It’s 2024 and fuel is 600+ Naira and over depending on location.

The same men that were against the subsidy removal back then are now telling Nigerians to bear with the current administration and that’s the only way to progress.

When these people are called out by the young people, the young people are tagged bitter and disrespectful and other vile names. These older guys clearly displayed hypocrisy and you expect the young people to respect and see you as a person of honor?

C’mon, you should be a man of your words come rain come shine.

These people too Dey misyarn.

The first world countries that preach global warming and less emissions of greenhouse gases emit more greenhouse gases than the African continent.

Personally, I have always preferred this old one to the new one.

GDP is not a measure of wealth.

You dey expect who you no pay for?

Just let me be alone.

Na wa

Home and abroad na frustration.
