What you are defending does not make sense, Politics is a game of numbers. What is the population of English speaking yorubas and Arabic speaking Yorubas?

You want to govern a yoruba state, you are speaking Arabic? How does this make sense?
He had just scored an own goal.

What you think I am defending is not what I am defending.

Definitely not from a Nigerian restaurant. A lot of "African restaurants" abroad are not owned by Nigerians, but they wanna make as much money as possible so they list Nigerian food on their menu, whereas they don't have chefs who can cook them.

I will be careful eating these things there. That poundo yam people are eating that doesn't have any yam in it. They gonna learn!

The foreigners are cashing in on our laziness and greed. Because we chase the money, they will cook for us. Every man must eat but authentic Nigerian food is not easy to make because it's 100% natural but the Chinese are already stepping up. Finding ways to use machines to mass produce our food. Who did this to us Our governments have not made things easy so the cost of quality African food is more expensive and our food comes in variety not menu type you have in Mc Donald or Arab shawarma stores that give fish, meat or chicken kebab. It's tough but the worst thing to happen to you over there too is bad health so spend money on good food. Food is your first medicine.

It won't be a surprise to me if this happens to be true. Sanwo has proven to be a weak and irredeemably liberal Governor to the detriment of the indigents of Lagos.

Don't forget the President refused to physically commission his projects and sent the Senate President to represent him, while he commissioned projects in Bayelsa State. Security was the excuse given.

I already knew this would happen. By the way, Sanwoolu and Hamzat are not really best of friends, but the deputy has just been matured not to be dramatic.

Do you remember how Tinubu finished his first and second term? Do you remember how many deputies he had and why some of them had to be impeached instead of resignation (for pension)? I will not be surprised. Just yesterday, the Achimugu woman or what's her name went to Channels for an interview to say she had nothing to do with Sanwoolu.

If Sanwoolu resigns, it means Hamzat can only do one term. For Baba Sope it has nothing to do with performance, it's all about calculations. Let this one do one term so that ________ can enter in 2031.

Not true. When he wanted to make that yeye move for Fashola second term, he shifted. And we can see it was all for Fashola not to take shine off him as Lagos Governor because there was no sensible reason to give other than someone who loves to be worshipped. You can't please such people. They always want to play God.

It's people who suck up to him that give him power but make no mistake, Tinubu changed his deputy governors at least 3x when they challenged him. Only that woman who knows him inside out, Kofoworola Bucknor has not gone to him. He made his former deputy an Ambassador to Australia. That one was removed because he wanted to be Governor without his consent. Ambode too came back but these politicians, they don't have principles so don't waste time with them.

people posting in english to criticise jandor for a post in arabic

there is freedom of religion. nigeria and the internet and twitter is not for christains only.

these are the ones who will be wailing about religious intolerance tomorrow

It's amazing how a language scares us as a people but we can speak Hebrew, Latin, French and any language but ours. What a people.

Look at this picture below. What does it say? 👇

Meanwhile in a country called Nigeria, what was the headline for this weekend? Obasanjo says NNPC refineries cannot be fixed 🤡

Iran never said let's wait for this war to end.
They never said maybe US will attack it again so let's not repair it.
They never complained about the sanctions. They never complained about world economy and all those nonsense those people smart by half come to preach to you online or on TV. They went straight to business.

This is the same government people abuse here meanwhile their own government in Nigeria doesn't give a damn about their welfare. The failure of a power minister says we should appoint a coordinating minister of energy after failing to restore power in 2 weeks he gave himself. President disconnected his own residence from national grid and went solar. Eeeeeeddddddoooots

cyril10:
This guy has really lost it, i don't think he knows what he says this time. This hypocrite is systematically supporting Tinubu, he doesn't want to come out open.

Read this post and you'll slap anyone who prays for our politician. The latest I read last week was that Iran has promised to fix the refineries that were attacked within 2 months. In all of these, Iran has not used the US sanctions or the war as an excuse to slack. I mean these people have all the excuses in the world to tell you why they don't have light and why their refineries will not work. God, why? 😢 If you think our politicians are not working with the devil himself, think again. 👇

SixSeven:
When Trump posted that he would bomb Iran to ancient civilization by targeting their bridges and energy infrastructure, the only thing that came to my mind was energy infrastructure. I've given up on bridges because in Nigeria, mediocrity is celebrated. 4th Mainland bridge is still on their mega plan while the Lagos-Calabar highway is completed since Obidients, Wailers and enemies of the State are already selling gala on its highway, hide your face!!!🙈

In this ongoing war, Iranian officials announced last week that they have restored electricity to their people despite attacks from Israel/US. 👇

Iran restores power to most parts of Tehran and Karaj after suspected attacks on infrastructure

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLGojjLbXKU?

It makes me ask the question, are we living in any civilization if we can't have light

A country at war cares so much to restore power to its people, they even provided updates on the power situation in their country, they didn't use the war as an excuse but in my own country, these wicked people use all manner of man-made excuses to put us in darkness, pain and suffering. Every Nigerian becomes an analyst, analyzing waterfalls from Kainji Dam to river sediments of Bakassi peninsular. May woe betide una 👐 It's not a curse. It is what you need because what you have shown us is that you are ungrateful. We are ungrateful people in this country and we should stop insulting God. Nigerians are the most ungrateful people on earth because God blessed us with abundance of resources and wealth but we insult the creator by giving weak excuses and ensuring that people suffer while we take care of our own immediate family and friends. We don't like ourselves, we just pretend we do.

In other countries, they make sure people are okay first. Here, we want to steal everything for ourselves and family, most people don't care about the state. They send their kids abroad, no excuses. They holiday abroad. They show off abroad. What kind of people are these? I can't just speak for God because if I were the one who created this kind of people, I would be so irritated because I see how you take pride in making your own people suffer but stash the money abroad. The president is in power, the supporters are more interested in peppering Obidients. If the president does well, isn't it to everyone's enjoyment and benefit? What sort of tomfoolery makes you bothered about opposition when you have the opportunity to use the goddamn power to fix things? I see in the war threads how people support either side but they don't reason. That country is a terrorist country as they claim here on NL but they have light. They have freaking light. No excuses. They are under sanctions. Here, they give all manner of excuses, sabotage the country, cache out our money, only for it to be used by their oppressors. Clowns 🤡

Nigerian incompetence thrives on world chaos so they can have something to justify their dirty bottoms. It's such a shame and a disgrace that Libya and Iran can have light but in Nigeria, we are ready to blame the world economy. Hisses

Read for critical understanding and proper comprehension not for rage baiting and emotional brickstone.

The videos are doing what the uploaders want it to do but you have to take a backseat and ask some questions
1° Do you think the government is not aware of these things? These guys are bold enough to record their crime and share it online. Think about the effrontery. Most criminals want to hide their crime, that's why they hate CCTV, daylight and any secret recording.

2° Who is sponsoring these people?

There is no way you can convince me some people don't know what is going on and they know the games they want to play.

Sowore you do this every year. Get a grip. Tell us what you want to do for your own party. Can anyone tell me what party Sowore is contesting on

Angelfrost:
Hmmm... The level of senseless distraction is something else.

Every single year, especially election time, he starts this brainless rubbish.

Look at him here again. I notice he speaks to the press almost everyday. I won't be surprised if he's behind some of these other outfits that are not SR. Who's funding him?

Again, I believe Sowore has his nuisance value but some things are so glaring.

Angelfrost:

Yes, I think he likes to take attention off the main issues and turn it to himself. That's why I said it's a distraction. Sowore has been in activism and media for long so he knows about this.

Angelfrost:
Sowore, apart from hugging the media space every year, wetin you really come this life come do?!!

Not hating, just curious.

He is a media mogul

These people are just distracting us from very important issues.

noting that defeating him—even under free and fair electoral conditions—would be a significant challenge.

"Even" says a lot about how popular the mandate really is.

Here is the brief, factual list of Nigeria’s presidential election winners since 1999, including each winner’s name and the percentage of valid votes they received.

1999 – Olusegun Obasanjo: about 62.78% of valid votes.
2003 – Olusegun Obasanjo: about 61.94% of valid votes.
2007 – Umaru Musa Yar’Adua: about 69.60% of valid votes.
2011 – Goodluck Jonathan: about 58.87% of valid votes.
2015 – Muhammadu Buhari: about 53.96% of valid votes.
2019 – Muhammadu Buhari: about 55.60% of valid votes.

2023 – Bola Ahmed tinubu: about 36.6–37% of valid votes.

fact: tinubu remains the most unpopular president to have won the Presidential elections. He is the easiest to kick out. Back then, PDP told AC, CPC and opposition parties when they were reigning that to kick us out, you need to unite as opposition. That's what they learned in 2015. A United opposition will defeat tinubu before the election begins. With a wiiiiiiiiiiiiiide margin. There is no need to argue about that and I thought a lawyer should know the facts upon which he wants to submit his prayers on.

AdolfHitlerxXx:
Tinubu already knows those who wouldn't vote for him. He didn't even bother to campaign there.

They "un-smartly" indirectly crowned him with their hate by taking away Atiku's vote.

That's a masterstroke I doubt any other person can ever replicate in Nigeria

Imagine, he was funding Peter Obi's campaign without that one with his 3rdyy knowing.

You don't know what the word means. That's cowardice and weakness but I won't bother arguing with you. There are no ethos or virtues from those who don't have it so in life, everything is a game to them. It's all snatch snatch snatch, grab grab grab...

You are calling someone who is violating the electoral rules of funding a masterstroke move. No wows left.

About a decade ago, WhatsApp did the same thing on blackberry devices. It stopped working on several blackberry devices. What they're saying is that users should upgrade their phones if they want to continue using WhatsApp

That's unfair and while they all tout security this and that, it is a way of making the industry keep getting funds. I wait for EU to step in. Microsoft is notorious for these changes which are all to make us spend more. Messaging should not be this hard. WhatsApp today is no longer simple, just complex like you're on IG. I hope someone else introduces another simple app. If it was the simple things we used to have on WhatsApp, we would not need these updates but now only WhatsApp:
1. Challenge stickers
2. Status updates from pages (WhatsApp was supposed to be for your closed circle)
3. Group video calls (WhatsApp can now do zoom type calls)
4. All, Unread, Favorites, Groups, Updates, Comminites, Lists etc
5. Status Views that are influenced by algorithm. Before you will just view status based on time of post, now, chat with someone, the next thing is to see their status next. The status view is now like the endless scroll online. All these things of course will make us upgrade it. I always knew Meta buying WhatsApp will create a bad experience because to them, you are just metadata

We didn't ask for these things, they made something simple difficult to use.

I thought the pant was a symbolism for a prostitute, I don't know.

You cannot convince me that our politicians are not wicked and darker than darkness with the way they leave us in darkness.

Same way I got the information, they all can.

You are being clever by half then. Give us the full information since you started to educate us.

Flangelo12:
You tried.

Most of them don't really care to know nor ask with good intentions.

Watch how they'll start disputing what you've posted.

Leave most of them. End this thread by telling us what is the status of the project today and our generating capacity.

Flangelo12:
You can ask Google.

I did a search that all of you can do.

That's how you know what happened to the project and if it's working as intended. You attempted to give the OP information, then complete it. The OP even put it in bold so you can see it clearly 👇

for context, the deal was signed in 2018 to add 25,000MW to our electricity generation. It's been 8yrs since that deal was signed.

Flangelo12:
The $2.3 billion Siemens-Nigeria Power Deal (Presidential Power Initiative - PPI) is active and in its second phase as of early 2026, aimed at modernizing Nigeria's power grid and improving reliability. Following a period of stagnation, the project was revived by President Tinubu's administration. It has successfully delivered and commissioned multiple mobile substations and transformers, yielding roughly

in additional capacity. The overall target is to reach 25,000
, with projects ongoing to reduce grid outages.


Key status updates include:

Revival and Status: The partnership was stalled but was revived and accelerated, with, as of early 2026, the project is moving forward under President Tinubu, having seen increased momentum.

Infrastructure Progress: [/b]Siemens has delivered and installed 132/33 KV mobile substations and several 75/100 MVA and 60/66 MVA transformers nationwide.

[b]Phase 2 Goals: The project is currently focused on upgrading seven lines and installing 10 transmission lines covering 554 km to boost capacity to 7,140
.
Key Focus: The deal seeks to mitigate grid failure, increase electricity access, and upgrade key transmission substations.

Timeline: The project timeline was extended, with some critical project components (substations) expected to be finalized around 2026.

Few things to consider is that children don't know what life is so most likely, everyone will say their childhood was great. Why? Because they were eating free lunch. They were taken care of. They were not paying bills! Cocoon life is sweet.

The development came following the singer’s recent attack on Wizkid’s DJ, DJ Tunez at a Lagos club. The incident further led to an online fight between Wizkid and Burna Boy.

Reacting to the controversy, many Nigerians criticised Burna for always getting physical with people, tagging him arrogant.

This is where you need a man in your life.

Fathers, good fathers play a vital role in a child's life especially when a man is maturing in his late 20s to early 30s because once he loses that mentoring, the proverb,

"A fool at 40 is a fool forever"
becomes profound.

"The wise person, knowing that all things are transient, finds no reason for pride or arrogance".
