Shame!
While citizens grapple with unbearable living conditions and the Naira tumbles to an all-time low of N1,600 to the dollar, Bola Tinubu appears to be only focused on personal luxury, a N5 billion yacht at the expense of taxpayers.
This is exactly what we warned about.
Tinubu is not just unfit to lead, he’s dangerously out of touch and detrimental to the survival of the Nigerian state.

lol . I wish that your so-called leaders are patriotic and great leaders, making Nigeria great, but unfortunately they are only competent in taking citizens from frying pan to fire, so what is the benefit of their political positions, that normal citizens can be proud of.
North, south , east and west, Nigeria political elites are the same, because the region that they emanates from makes no difference, as they are clearly united in corruption .

Exactly, I expected someone from the brainless comments on this post to name at least one meaningful achievement the country has seen since Igbos were pushed out of political leadership as they claim .
Unsurprisingly, no one did. It’s clear their aim isn't development and progress of the country.
If excluding a section of the country from governance hasn’t helped the country, then what exactly are they celebrating?

Politics › Re: The last Time A President came For Commissioning Was 2012 For A Brewery - Soludo by shortgun(m): 8:18am On May 09, 2025

We all know Soludo is playing politics and is targeting Peter Obi because he erroneously thinks he will be chosen for president. His constant jabs at Peter Obi lack objectivity.
Most of the roads commissioned by former presidents have all deteriorated, yet we continue to see products from Peter Obi's brewery all over the country. The fact that the brewery has remained successful and sustainable over the years is a testament to Peter Obi's visionary leadership.
If the only thing Soludo can mock Peter Obi for is a successful, functional business that still employs hundreds of people and has remained profitable over the years and not that he stole billions of naira like other former governors . It speaks volumes about Obi's qualifications to lead Nigeria

Politics › Re: Western Education Just A Formality - Bauchi Governor, Bala Mohammed by shortgun(m): 10:27pm On May 08, 2025

lol, that's a myopic view.
Yes, some individuals became successful without formal education. But highlighting a few exceptional cases , maybe 1 in 10,000,
like truck drivers who “made it” ignores the overwhelming evidence that education remains one of the most reliable paths out of poverty. Relying on exceptions does not make a sound national policy or societal vision.
Also, Countries with high literacy and school enrollment rates like Finland, South Korea, Rwanda consistently outperform others in health, innovation, productivity and governance.

Bauchi has one of the lowest literacy rates in Nigeria. For a sitting governor to publicly call education a "formality" is not just irresponsible it’s dangerously demotivating.
Young people in marginalized areas already face barriers, this message adds a mental wall to those barriers.

Formal education isn't just about degrees, it promotes:

Critical thinking

Numeracy and literacy

Civic understanding

Health awareness

APC is an evil Party.
Nigerians can no longer afford food and other basic necessities since the evil party snatched power in the country.
Before APC:
a bag of Rice was sold for less than 8k.
Dollar was less than 300 and petrol was less than 200.

Tinubu came with his senseless economic policies of floating the naira and removing subsidy to save trillions of naira weekly, yet there's no visible benefit the average Nigerian can point to as the gains of subsidy removal.
The only thing APC is good at is propaganda angry

Politics › "You Sound Like Peter Obi"—presidency Blast Adesina Over Claims Of GDP by shortgun(op): 7:56pm On May 07, 2025

The Presidency has faulted the recent claim by Akinwumi Adesina, the outgoing President of the African Development Bank (AfDB), on Nigeria’s GDP per capita.
In a recent report, Adesina was quoted as saying that Nigerians today are worse off than they were in 1960. The AFDB chief was also reported to have said that Nigeria’s GDP per capita in 1960 was $1847 and $824 in 2025.

Reacting, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, in a statement on Monday, tackled Adesina, saying the figures he quoted are not correct.Onanuga blasted Akinwumi, saying his conclusions were based on inaccurate figures and an incomplete understanding of Nigeria’s economic progress.

According to him, significant progress has been made in various sectors since 1960.

Dismissing Adesina’s claim, Onanuga said Nigeria’s GDP was $4.2 billion in 1960, and per capita income for a population of 44.9 million was $93 — ninety-three, not even one hundred dollars.
He said, “Our country’s GDP did not rise remarkably until the 1970s, when crude earnings ballooned. In 1970, our GDP rose to $12.55 billion. In 1975, it was $27.7 billion, $64.2 billion in 1980, and $164 billion in 1981. Up until 1980, per capita income did not exceed $880. It rose to $2187 in 1981 and dropped to $1844 in 1982. In 2014, after rebasing, it reached an all-time high of $3,200. These facts raise questions about the source of Dr Adesina’s figures.”

Although the presidential aide said his response is not aimed at poking holes in Adesina’s figures, he aimed a dig at him, saying the African banking president “Spoke like a politician, in the mould of Peter Obi and did not do due diligence before making his unverifiable statement.”

Very rubbish Gen Z thread. Millennials like us cannot put up this nonsense. Morning erection is something confidential and shouldn’t be discussed in public but trust Gen Z, they are so shameless and perverted. The most wayward generation ever!!!

Your mentality is one of the major reasons why STIs, teenage pregnancy, sexual abuse, and exploitation continue to rise in society due to ignorance.
There’s a boy somewhere who has just started experiencing morning erections, but he is confused, distressed, and feeling guilty about a natural sexual development.
Posts like this will help teenage boys like him, especially if they have a father with your mentality.

I heard about the contract scam currently going on in the Ebonyi state civil service. All the workers there at the Ebonyi state tax office and ministries are involved..

You are right, they are like that all over the country.
Nigerians are quick to blame politicians and law enforcement agencies for the rot in the country but the root of corruption is in the civil service. There's no kind of unimaginable corrupt practice they don't do...inflating contracts and awarding it to themselves, forgery, some of them even work in up to 4 different places and collect salaries from all, they have houses and investments abroad.

Afrojuju2017:
But this is a consequence of our social evolution, we've evolved from a more vegetarian diet with sparse consumption of protein in form of insects and small lizards, rodents, fish to carnivorous mammals who can't even digest raw meat.

We are rather hopeless in the animal kingdom without the technology and advancements we've made, if we do meet alien races in the future we may find out we are not even as advanced as we think we are.

Indeed, your observation aligns with anthropological and evolutionary biology. The human digestive system, dentition and enzymes suggest an omnivorous ancestry, one that likely began with a predominantly plant-based diet supplemented by opportunistic consumption of animal protein, first from insects and small prey, then increasingly from larger animals as the use of tools and cooperative hunting evolved.
My fear has always been that technological evolution has outpaced biological evolution in humans, creating a species heavily reliant on external tools for survival. This could be interpreted as a risky adaptive strategy,resilient in some dimensions and extremely vulnerable in others...
