If students in the university that are supposed to be more knowledgeable and enlightened are celebrating “loans”, then a lot can be questioned about their education.

Since I’ve switched back to spectranet, I’ve not had issues of data exhaustion anyhow.

TopBanter:
You are the one decieving yourself. After all the noise and drama, I will be here next year to tackle you after Tinubu wins easily.

Tinubu can’t win easily, if at all he wins. Next election will go into a second round.

Peter Obi, take a step back and stop granting interviews every time.

That coalition of yours and Kwankwaso I knew would bring clash of interests.

Kwankwaso was anti subsidy removal but you are for its removal.

It played out in your interview. You should have remained with ADC.

9jatriot:
He may have been successful in other areas but was clearly unsuccessful in running his supermarket. Do you want to entrust a whole nation to such a person. The state that once did that had nothing but insults for him, I think we should listen to them when they were saying the truth.

Who praised Tinubu when he was governor? The only governor that got praises from the people of Lagos since 1999 till date is Fashola.

Tinubu is a terrible administrator and leader. We all can see how he’s managing the affairs of Nigeria now.

Imole 2.0.

If Una like make Una collide into unaselves, na Imole we want.

If Tinubu’s administration is the best thing to happen to you as a person, just say that and not say it’s the best thing to happen to Nigerians.

That’s a blatant lie and the statistics are there to prove that.

Motivational speaker don talk.

They’ll keep saying these to keep bright minds tied down in a system that’s not designed to help them flourish.

Japa is you have the means and stop listening to these rich folks who give their children dual citizenships or solid western education.

No one is saying you can fix decades of rot in 4 years, I don’t think Obi ever said such.

What we need are purposeful leader(s), president, National Assembly members, governors, chairmen that would redirect this country in a new and better direction than what we have.

We can’t keep doing one thing a certain way and expect a different result.

Yet, you wasted it.

Stupid mentality of I don’t care if the next person gets to eat so far I’m full.

9jatriot:
Even as a trader, he is not even known to be successful.

In the small supermarket he was running in the UK, he could not even run it successfully, but somehow the same person who could not run a supermarket wants to convince reasonable people that he can run a country.

Like someone said before, if Obi was a Lagos politician, based on competence, he would not qualify to be an LCDA chairperson. LCDA is a subset of LGA for those who do not know.

Maybe they would have allowed him to run a LAWMA truck business as compensation but definately not a leadership role in a place like Lagos.

Peter Obi is not successful?

Come on, not even Tinubu will open his mouth to say such.

The same Lagos state politicians? How’s Sanwo Olu any better than Yaba-Onike LCDA chairman?

REDshouse:
Lol ...this should be thrash .... ATIKU that squandered 16b naira power sector money said he had a blue print ...he should have actualise the blue print when he was in power ....

A failure will always seek to clinge on nothing

Una don change am from dollars to naira.

LOL.

He’s part of the old order. One Nigeria keeps him rich.

gigabyte13:
Unlike the devil in the DSS den
This what true political healing means.
Make l see the devil wey go stop Uba in 2027

The same Uba is currently running a Muslim Muslim ticket.

nairalanda1:
15 billion for 39 SUV's

Make we do the math.

1 suv costs maximum....45 million naira.

40 SUV would cost 1.8 BILLION Naira

Yet...15 billion naira for 39 SUV...

APC members, we need an explanation.

More math.

You really think these guys will buy a brand new SUV probably Land Cruisers, Prada or Lexus for 40M?

Those cars sell for as high as 200M naira.

In fact you can’t get any brand new SUV for 40M.

I know a Special Assistant to the president that drives a 2022 Lexus SUV and it costs about 20 for that when he bought it.

LordIsaac:
At the very least, this Baba should employ a stylist.

Even a personal groomer sef.

Buhari that was older looked 10X better than this man.

Well, no peace for the wicked sha.

press9jatv:
lies of the highest order here. Not true at all.

Even with a video to back it up? LOL. What more do you expect from an APC supporter.

Personally, I’ll like a President that’ll come and declare state of emergency in Southwest states and phase out these agbero menaces.

Tinubu cannot do it.

This people should better know that power will leave their hands.

nairalanda1:
Most of you guys do not pay a tax to the federal and state government, and refuse to pay cost relfective tarrifs for electricity...AND THE government is bad because not paying an income tax means that people are not incentivised to hold the government to account(and the government likes it that way too).

And the result is the mess we have in our system

Unless you want government to take loans exceeding 20 trillion naira annually to give you good electricity, it is better we pay a cost reflective tarrif so that we can attract like amount in investment, without taking a loan, which would bring down costs of power, and make it more PLENTIFUL.

Most of you don’t pay tax to federal and state government. Nairalanda 2026.

See why I call you theory economist, you just say anything to feel good without any data to back it up.

7.5% VAT charged on all purchases and airtime is not tax?

Everyone in Nigeria today, so far you shop, use airtime, board public transport, buy fuel, eat at restaurants etc pay taxes in one way or the other.

What are the government doing with all the VAT they announce they receive?

The same you that said electricity is cheaper in Nigeria than in the USA went mute when someone pointed out the lie in your statement.

Theory economist.

Mrchippychappy:
Comparison of the cost of commodities from 2021 , 2024 and 2026.

You don't need to tell people if you are a good or bad person, Them go feel am by themselves.

The Data has been accumulated from a very short period of 4 years, yet within that period you can see the disaster and free-fall of the Nigerian economy. As of today we have witness an increase of 582% on commodities compared to their prices back in 2020

Corn boys will say Nigerians weren’t paying the right prices then.

I remember when I spent almost 70k on groceries in 2023 shortly after this man came on. I look at what I bought and compared to the last time I shopped similar things, it cost about 25k, this was same 2023 but under Buhari.

Now it seems it’s gradually becoming a norm to spend hundreds of thousands on groceries.

PulaPower:
Pdp government under Obj promoted NURTW..

NURTW has been promoted even before Tinubu became Lagos governor..

You can go to google to read about when NURTW was created then you’ll know Tinubu is even far from it..

LOL.

How many times have you seen any Agbero or NURTW chieftain call Obj their father or leader?

Have you ever seen Obj take group photographs with NURTW members?

otipoju:
And the ingrate of a man said on his swearing in " I belong to nobody and i belong to everybody" and proceeded to appoint members of his ethnic group to all vital positions and sideline the very man who helped him win.

Don’t spread lies.

Fashola was the only minister to hold 3 portfolios in Buhari’s first term and 2 portfolios in his second.

Power, Works and Housing.

Fashola is Tinubu’s man and he’s not Buhari’s kinsman.

There are several more.

LZAA:
You just heard what a business owner said yet you still stick to this your theory?
Smh

You Dey mind that one? He’s always trying to sound smart but keeps saying rubbish.

Theory economist.

Government failed to provide electricity, good roads, adequate security, sound insurance policies, single digit loans. Yet they tax factories 52% of every product coming out of their chain, pls tell us how such factories will be able to compete.

They will not copy the good things China do for factories in their country, but will want to collect taxes equivalent to what China collects.

And what do they do with all these taxes? They lavish on themselves.

What exactly do you expect him to tell you on ending insecurity?

He said he will end it. How he goes about it shouldn’t be your problem, your concern should be he ends it.

Parties haven’t released manifestos yet, when it is time, take a copy of his party’s manifesto and read it extensively.

The Tinubu you support didn’t tell us how he’ll achieve all he claimed he will achieve.

He only kept saying “Look at Lagos”. “I built Lagos”. In fact he delegated questions asked him at Chatham House to El Rufai and others.

You guys cheered him on as a “master strategist”, you shouldn’t be the ones condemning another person for acting as Tinubu acted now.

Of course.

If both choose to work together.

ratcock:
His finance minister Taiwo or whatever he answers will soon come up with fabricated figures and lies on how the windfall did not reach the coffers of government

That guy go answer questions when Tinubu is booted out of office next year.

This one is only writing this to keep food in his mouth.

Legislative aide isonu.

seunmsg:
lol. Bring on the fight, we are waiting.

You are not part of those they’re calling to fight. You can’t fight.

Igboho ran for his dear life when Buhari came after him.

Richtaiwo:
Payment of over 17 Trillion subsidy? From which budget? From the 51 Trillion?

So you didn’t bother to study the budget the man you claim to have tamed the ocean and built Lagos submitted? Didn’t he tag it budget of renewed hope?

What I know for certain is that those of you who hailed Buhari throughout his 8 years as president as fixing Nigeria but turned against him almost immediately he left power to say he destroyed the economy will do the same to this Tinubu in the future.

ogmask:
Climate change is a scam...nothing like that.

I know right? Cause the countries that scream climate change have shown they are the largest emitters of green house gases.

USA and China alone emit more greenhouse house gases than the entire African continent.
