PoliticsRe: The Most Developed Region In Nigeria According To Grok AI by shortgun(m): 8:21am On Aug 02, 2025
Akinfemmy:
It's you people that don't have peace. Honestly, you claim your land is better, yet you can't stay there. You even have to use AI for validation in a country you're living. I really don't know by what standards south east is better than south west but i do know if that were true, you lots won't be running away from there. It's just common sense.
This doesn’t make any sense at all.
Using your logic, that means a farmer who leaves his house every day to go to the farm must hate his house and prefer the farm?
That’s ridiculous.

People leave home to work, trade, explore opportunities. It doesn't mean the home is bad

Predictor3:
Show us the evidence that he has borrowed more than the presidents before him
Obasanjo took Nigeria from $28 billion debt to $3 billion in 8 years.
That's a president who fixed problems.

Tinubu in just 2 years has borrowed a staggering $70 billion and counting.

He even borrowed $800 million loan to "cushion" the effect of subsidy removal... the same subsidy removal we were supposed to save from and that was meant to reduce spending?
If this isn’t madness, what is?
PoliticsRe: No Tinubu Supporter Has An Answer To This Question by shortgun(op):
Factcheck0001:
what was d exchange rate under Buhari n what is d exchange rate now?

So someone borrowed 500 dollars with an exchange rate of 400 = 200k

Another borrowed 250 dollars with an exchange rate of 1600 = 400k

But u lots believed the second person have borrowed more?

No problems if u can believe Buhari was cloned without knowing the meaning of cloning then I am not surprised u believed this, after all agenda must agend

So when d Naira was floated n it reflected the genuine price, do u expect it to come down?
You're confusing yourself with exchange rate gymnastics.
The simple truth is; Tinubu has borrowed more in dollars than all past presidents combined, that’s a fact!
Whether the dollar is ₦400 or ₦1600, it doesn’t change the volume of debt in USD.

In reality, since the dollar is now worth 4x or 5x more in naira, borrowing in dollars today should translate to even more naira not less. But you're twisting it like we’re somehow borrowing “smaller” because of a high exchange rate. This is cheap propaganda.
Debt is debt and this government has taken more of it than ever before.
Stop misleading people.

The question remains why is Tinubu government still borrowing billions of dollars when he's not paying subsidy?
PoliticsRe: No Tinubu Supporter Has An Answer To This Question by shortgun(op): 12:53am On Aug 02, 2025
Raskimonojendor:
This is not true to begin with. Debt has reduced massively and not increased. How did you think the government was able to increase FAAC to state government?
How did debt reduce when Tinubu has borrowed over 180 trillion? He has accumulated more debt than all previous presidents combined. Other presidents before him were paying subsidy and borrowed less but he's not paying any subsidy.
PoliticsRe: No Tinubu Supporter Has An Answer To This Question by shortgun(op):
helinues:
How much debt have been serviced?

Even if you want to do copy and paste, comprehend and reason it logically.

We read daily about development news in Nigeria, just today, a random Nigerian was selected for one of the Federal government job. Una can never see all those.

Those that have been shortlisted for this new FG job, would you tell them that this government hasn't done a thing without receiving a dirty slap?
What are you even saying?
How does One or two people getting jobs while the economy bleeds cancel out the skyrocketing inflation, hunger and starvation,naira free fall, fuel price madness, insecurity and the ever rising debt.?
PoliticsRe: No Tinubu Supporter Has An Answer To This Question by shortgun(op): 11:04pm On Aug 01, 2025
FreeIgboho:
Can you please elaborate
So if you remove subsidy you supposed to borrow less money?
So make I understand the madness
You remove subsidy to “save money”…
But instead of saving you go and borrow even more than before. How's that making any sense?

Removing subsidy means there's more funds available!

This is nonsense. You actually pay more with this this system.

I knew this tax reform will be messed up from the beginning.
There's nothing Tinubu will ever get right, this is why the country is in a big mess

WizardOfNG:
Abeg take your GEJ noise elsewhere. "Looking for sympathy" from who? Is iit not your ethnic group still carrying GEJ matter on our head while Jonathan himself is cordial today with Tinubu while you lot continue to cry more than the bereaved about some alleged misdeeds of Tinubu against GEJ.

Jonathan himself, and his inner crew to include his wife and many Ijaws, have chilled today because they know it was his attempt to renege on a pledge to do one term alone, out of what was already a contentious situation of cheating the North of power, that led Tinubu etal to act.

Many Northerners, after Jonathan had been substantive President for one year, supported him to win the 2011 election to get a four year term as Preaident, a total of 5 years as President for Jonathan, and then leave the stage at that point because he would have enjoyed 5 years as President that would never have been his or the South had Yar Adua not died.

If you are not a kid you'd know about Chibok girls saga and the terror and bombings deployed to ward off GEJ from contemplating a second term that would have given him in 9 years in power, had he won, in a period the power-obsessed North felt was their legitimate slot.

Yes Tinubu and other leaders should have stood by and watched Nigeria burn because GEJ did not want to be honorable.

If you and others do not know, it is awareness of the inside story that has made Patience Jonathan, GEJ'S wife, and many influential Ijaws, to include powerful militants like Tompolo etal, rally behind PBAT today rather than view him the villain you all ignorantly keep touting he is.

Take your cue from Jonathan himself and his Ijaw people. Stop embarrassingly crying more than the bereaved.
Regurgitating the usual distorted facts and propaganda and assuming no one will bother to fact-check.
What we will never forgive is the hypocrisy of those who weaponized terrorism, blackmail and gang up to remove Jonathan from office.

show us the legal document where GEJ signed to do one term. Every Nigerian president has sought for second term and it's a constitutional right. Suddenly GEJ doing the same became a crime?
