Stop looking for achievements where the is none.

For inflation rates, they were basically just rebased.

Is that not normal practice? Was the previous rate not at one time also rebased? Does rebasing the inflation rate, necessarily mean inflation must automatically come down? Can't it also trend upwards regardless of rebasing?

Some criticisms make no sense.

Amerengues2:
Unfortunately, thats what a lot dont know....

I would have easily tipped Liverpool to 60% chances of winning the league considering their start to the season....

people even fail to realize they havent gotten to the middle of the season and even Chelsea is a strong contender...

I will start taking any team serious after 20 games

That's a sign of poor ball knowledge. No offence. Because it was obvious that Liverpool were very lucky at the beginning of the season and fans were already complaining about Slot.

It works for those who are patients . It prevents them.from.transmissiom but doesn't prevent from contracting

That's not true. It is used for pre-exposure prophylaxis.

He's not making any sense. Mahmoud was discredited by who exactly??

I understand some section of the public may hold the view that he engaged in electoral fraud. But until a court of law pronounces a verdict on such or some other credible body declares so, there's absolutely no reason to deprive him as a Nigerian from any opportunity available to other Nigerians.

Basic salary is quite deceptive as a measure of of the income of any staff of the ministry of foreign affairs on foreign assignments. They receive numerous dollar denominated allowances.

Bobloco:
Tinubu gives a directive, and those who are expected to carry it out flaunt it with a bold face. Tinubu sees that his directive has been flaunted yet moves on as if nothing has happened.

It is obvious that Tinubu is not in charge of his government. In fact, Tinubu’s regime is the most lawless in the history of this country.

"Flout" please.

Reference:
Photos with people that he cannot direct, order or command. People that are not answerable or accountable to him. Funny country.

The rumpus in the Legislature yesterday and on the airwaves this morning about the Abaribe inquest into who ordered the withdrawal of security officials just before the the mass abduction at the school is enough proof that the structure you see represented in the pictures above is not fit for purpose.

Till now the governor of that state has not gotten an answer and may never get one. Will Mr. Sanwo Olu get an answer if as they say 'the s**t hits the fan.

Well this is one of the areas where Lagos is simply different from other states. In Lagos there is what we call the Lagos State Security Trust which is a pool of private funding that goes toward equipping and taking care of security officers under this body. This helps to ensure that they are usually well motivated to respond to the security needs of the State.

sweerychick:
I thought drones have replaced fighters, why going for obsolete jets

Drones don't have the same capacity. A fighter jet can do much more damage.

What the man said was twisted in order to create a more sensational story. At a time like this I really wish media houses could pause this profits over facts style of reportage and let Nigerians read and decide for themselves. We all know the vast majority of people won't read beynd the headline.

Xscape1993:
He is one of my mentors before now. He has lost my respect already. This is a man I hold to a very high esteem, but because of one known drug baron and certificate forger he lost himself due to tribal sentiment. Any educated man who sees things from the perspective of religion, tribal and political is a waste and a burden to humanity. What a country!

Wole Soyinka has said several times that Tinubu is his friend. Thus, this is one of the hypocrisies that one can easily understand and overlook without taking succour in unnecessary tribal theories.

SmartyPants:
By his co-founder and early major investors obviously. If they were sensible he would have been asked to take the CTO position and stay out of the limelight. Eventually, you will see that he will be asked to step down and this should have been done sooner. Period.

DaddyJapan are you still arguing?

Dogalmighty17:
Does their language matter? A terrorist is a terrorist.

It can point to underlying issues and potential solutions. If you find out that a particular terror group recruits from a particular ethnic group, the question becomes what is drawing them to terrorism. You can then strategize to solve the root cause.

VOsimhen144:
For the past decade, no terrorist has been sentenced to death by the Federal Government.
Since June 2022 till date, no arrest has been made over the Owo massacre that occurred in the church.

#Bring back our children

Tinupoo

While I agree on the insecurity issue, please note the bolded is false. People were arrested and the case is in court.

Maxymilliano:
How many times have they made this order

Well, this is the first time it's coming from the president. Let's see if it makes a difference.

DMerciful:
President pulling the string is Yoruba. Attorney General pushing the trial is Yoruba . Prosecuting lawyer is Yoruba. Judge is Yoruba.

There's no way an igbo man can get justice in a Yoruba govt. It was always a fait accompli

Are you saying he didn't do what he was accused of? Let's out sentiments aside. Did Kanu direct people to kill others?

MrSly:
Do say that. Don't human voices accompanied the orchestra just that the voice back up was largely small. Signalling massive rejection of the song among the judiciary.

But the question is why was the song not stopped as such hypocrisy should not have marred the judiciary s programme?

Stopped as in, the judges should have gone to squabble with the presidential band as the president is on his feet? Why do you people just reason in a one dimensional manner?

PlasmaTV:
Anything they defend is TRUE!

If they don't deny you would also then say "They kept quiet, therefore it's true!"

We know your antics. You are best advised to rest.

Abemy:
Congress (APC).

Top sources within the Presidency told SaharaReporters on Friday that the ongoing wave of defections from opposition parties to the APC is being powered by jaw-dropping financial packages, coordinated directly from the Presidency and supervised by senior government officials around Tinubu.

According to the sources, each state governor who has recently defected to the APC got a total package of N250billion.

"This money is released in two tranches; there is a N100 billion “grant” upfront once commitment is shown, and a balance of N150 billion after the formal defection ceremony," one of the sources revealed.

“So, the state governors defecting to APC get a total N250billion, senators N1billion, and members of the House of Representatives N500million,” he said.

So the answer to the question was Sahara Reporters. That's all I wanted to know. Thanks.

Abemy:
Politicians alleged. Who else would?

Which ones? They don't have names?? You brought incomplete information, and suddenly you're getting defensive when someone is naturally probing further - why?

Abemy:
It is alleged that each defecting governor is given N5BN and automatic ticket for second term governors, N1bn for senators and N500m for house of reps defectors. Allegedly.

Who alleged the allegation, allegedly?

musa234:
Very matured response from a matured man

Yes, he just gained my respect.

Nigeria Judges are now singing “On your mandate” while standing at the 2025 Nigerian Judges Conference..

don't see any judge singing. The only person visibly singing is Woke Olanipekun, who is a lawyer, not a judge. The judges were merely standing which is protocol because the president was on his feet. The only question is why that particular song was played by the band, at that moment. That was out of order but leave the judges out of it.

mightyhazel:
Vdm can't swing a punch in that position, he was careful not to escalate the fracas because of ppl and structures around. The other dude was flapping his wings like a hen about to lay

Precisely what I'm saying: Swinging is an amateur/street way to throw a hook. You can land a powerful hook within a 45 degree angle if you understand the technique.

mightyhazel:
Space no dey that aircraft . Otherwise one better hook from vdm would have ended that other clown with his flurry of weak feminine punches

You don't need that much space to land a powerful hook. He just doesn't have the technique.

mastermaestro:
Omo that shit was beyond mere snack. It was an addiction for me. The taste en...

I sight you comrade

Fish biscuit collected all my pocket money that year

Don't bring it back. It's a dangerous sturv.

Dogalmighty17:
I'm not sure we need him. The squad played well without him.

In what game was this that the squad played without him? Someone that has played every game under Chelle?

Mrexcell:
Not true the Congolese govt is promising and motivating their players with $1m each if they qualify that's surely going to be one hell of a match.

Fake news. This has been extensively debunked.

humberjade:
I beg to differ. A walk over against a semi-finalist at the last AFCON? And they were only pipped by the host country and eventual winners, Ivory Coast.

They will be a hard nut to crack.

That is how you know people who barely watch football. DR Congo has always been a top 10 African side, with numerous experienced players.

Ttalk:
If you say this then you haven't worked as security aid to top government officials, it is part f the training, even as an aide,the are things you have to do to protect the image of your boss

Mention one example of an incident involving a verbal altercation like Wike's own, with respect to a high-ranking official - anywhere in the world - where his security aides bundled him against his will away to protect his image.

You won't stop and think before typing and you want to force everyone to be like you. Why?

Ttalk:
Read the article again, all those aspects are covered, security aides goes beyond escort, it entails managing the boss temperament so as not to cause public embarrassment

This writer is talking for the sake of talking. You know fully well no one in Nigeria or even anywhere else in the world can willy nilly bundle their boss away from a scene just because they think he is embarrassing himself. You'll be out of a job the next day.
