JimRohn:
Your reply exposes not only the emptiness of your argument but also the deep-rooted prejudice Tinubu’s blind supporters hide behind when logic fails them. Reducing Nigeria’s future to tribal insults is the last refuge of those defending failure. Leadership is not about Yoruba, Igbo, or Hausa — it is about competence, vision, and results. Tinubu has none.

Nigerians are not suffering because of tribe; they are suffering because Tinubu imposed reckless, anti-poor policies that destroyed livelihoods, collapsed the naira, and deepened hunger. That is not tribalism — that is failure.

And let me educate you: power in Nigeria has never been permanent with any man or region. Jonathan was removed, Buhari was rejected, and Tinubu will also face the people’s verdict if he continues to multiply suffering. No arrogant defender of failure can change that fact.

Keep chanting tribal slurs if it consoles you — it does not feed Nigerians. It only proves what everyone already knows: Tinubu’s defenders have no defense, only hate. Nigerians are hungry, angry, and awake — and when the time comes, no propaganda, no arrogance, and no tribal card will save Tinubu from the judgment of the people.

You will pass through this phase, besides Obi or any Ibo man will never be president. Keep up with the epistle. I dey here for you.

JimRohn:
Repeating “you will pass through this phase” like a broken record only exposes the emptiness of Tinubu’s defenders. Nigerians are not asking for fortune-tellers, they are asking for food on their tables, security in their communities, and value for their hard-earned naira. Tinubu has failed to deliver any of these.

Obi, El-Rufai, or whoever is irrelevant to this discussion — the real issue is Tinubu’s catastrophic failure in office. Hiding behind “phases” is nothing but cowardice and propaganda. Poverty is not a phase. Hunger is not a phase. Collapse of the naira is not a phase. They are the direct results of Tinubu’s reckless and selfish policies.

And let me remind you: no president is untouchable. Nigerians voted out Jonathan, they rejected Buhari, and they can and will do the same to Tinubu if he continues on this path of destruction. Power belongs to the people — not to arrogant politicians and their blind defenders.

So keep chanting “Obi will never be president” if it helps you sleep at night. The truth remains: Tinubu has failed, Nigerians are suffering, and no propaganda will erase that reality.

You will pass through this phase and Obi nor any Ibo man will ever be president of the country.

JimRohn:
Your arrogance only proves the bankruptcy of Tinubu’s defenders. When a government has no results to show, its supporters resort to threats, insults, and empty prophecies about who “will never be president.” Nigerians are not interested in your fortune-telling — they are interested in survival, dignity, and leadership that works.

“Passing through a phase” is not an excuse for multiplying hardship. Poverty is not reform. Hunger is not progress. Tinubu promised Renewed Hope but delivered renewed suffering, and no amount of political arrogance will blind Nigerians to that fact.

Obi, El-Rufai, or anyone else is not the issue here — the issue is Tinubu’s catastrophic failure in just one year. Nigerians did not elect excuses, they elected solutions. If your only defense is “endure the pain,” then you are openly admitting Tinubu has failed to govern responsibly.

Mark this: the people who put Tinubu in power can also remove him. Nobody is above accountability. Nigerians endured Jonathan, rejected Buhari, and if Tinubu continues on this path of reckless suffering, he too will be thrown out by the same people you now insult.

You will pass through this phase and Obi will never be president, seeh!! No that and know peace.

JimRohn:
Your entire submission is a classic case of propaganda dressed up as “progress.” You cherry-pick figures, twist half-truths, and expect Nigerians to clap while they are sinking deeper into poverty. Let’s be clear: no amount of cooked statistics will change the reality Nigerians face daily — hunger, joblessness, insecurity, and despair.

You boast about the naira “stabilizing” after crashing beyond 2,000/$ under Tinubu’s reckless watch. Who caused that chaos in the first place? You hail petrol “down” to ₦860 — is that supposed to be an achievement when it was barely ₦200 before Tinubu’s ill-prepared subsidy removal? A 50kg bag of rice at ₦60k is still a nightmare for millions who can’t even afford ₦10k. And don’t insult Nigerians with minimum wage talk — how many states are actually paying ₦70k, and does that wage buy half of what ₦30k bought three years ago?

You talk about “trade surplus” and “foreign reserves” as if that feeds the poor or lowers transport fares. Go to the markets, go to the streets, go to the hospitals — Nigerians are suffering more today than ever. Tinubu has delivered nothing but deeper hardship and fake economic jargon meant to distract.

Legacy projects? Nigerians don’t eat bridges. They don’t cook gas pipelines. They need affordable food, stable power, secure lives, and real jobs — all of which Tinubu has failed to provide.

Stop insulting people’s intelligence. Nigerians are not blind. The verdict on Tinubu is clear: he has failed, he is failing, and no propaganda will erase that fact.

Whether you like it or not, you will pass through this phase because Nigeria needs to be structured. Obi will never be president and Elrufai doesn't give a damn about you.

Streetinvestor2:
Malam is doing the good work. He will finish SW president up north before 2027.By next yr he will be sharing the massages in hausa and fulani language to spread all over north. And for performance, he is the best governor of kaduna after makarafi.Then the best minister of Abuja.
How is the free laptop and hunger induced monetisation begging from naira land.
I hope SW president does not go beyond BP with what mallam is doing as he is in hospital in Europe

See how you're projecting and trying so desperately to voice your evil wishes on Tinubu because you can't compete with the SW. Your candidate will never be president and Elrufai will continue to suffer defeats and disgrace.

This is becoming seriously disgusting. How can Gentle Yahoo be killing people and this hypocrite refused to say "pim" but would quickly jump at anything that happens elsewhere?

babztee:
These people are fucking lying.Do not believe any information that comes out of the mouth of these retards.

They’d be trying to fish out positive information ahead of the next election.
Bro,these people are just after their pockets.

The desperation behind your comment says it all. It shows that you would go to any length to cover or disregard good news just because you're sore losers who think the only way to get presidency is by bullying.

floss:
The reason is because one tribe believes that they have more to lose if the other tribe leaves,

While one tribe doesn’t mind leaving everything behind and get a country of their own, they’re not scared of starting afresh because they’ve done that in the past.


No matter how you look at it, one tribe among the two needs to leave because they’re not one in

Ideology

Cultural belief

Level of integrity

Tenacity

One tribe is devilishly cunning, and cooks with tribalism and bigotry

The other tribe is always playing the victim card

Because your preferred candidate was beaten in the presidential election by a Yoruba man doesn't make Yorubas devilishly cunning, tribalistic and bigoted. You who is Ibo voted for an Ibo man, why is it wrong and tribalistic for a Yoruba person to vote for a Yoruba man? Is that not cheap blackmail and witchcraft?

Bakare is still talking? After hobnobbing with and foisting Buhari on us? He is now talking about new breed of leaders?

Big shame on you.

No!! A big shame on you.

jmoore:
Peter Obi pressing their necks.

It's obvious the thing dey pain them very well.

You're being delusional. Of what essence is pressing necks when it won't get you anywhere?

yemre:
Rather than hold their state governors and local government chairmen accountable even after getting the information that they get these allocations in billions on a monthly basis no!, they must keep asking "where's the money going". They keep dreaming that Tinubu will come to their street from Abuja to do stuffs for them. And it will never happen.

The earlier we know how and where to channel our questions and requests, the better for all of us.

Right now, all the political leaders are keeping quiet because they know that they could no longer sell the narrative of "Abuja has not released money", but we fail to ask questions!

The bottom line is that they want Tinubu out at all cost. If a bag of rice becomes #2500 tomorrow, these banshees will still scream.

oluwaseyi0:
Lol, you people must weep about everything even so called normal news

People that don't have joy. They always want to be hearing bad news so they can jeer and rejoice.

Nteogwuija:
You're not in Nigeria, if you were you won't be saying this. This didn't happen on Nigerian soil. It happened in Benin Republic.

Ribadu and O'mockery said the country is safe. We dare not second-guess the words of our master. There was no line crossed, since this wasn't on Nigerian soil, so Ribadu has nothing to worry about.

I know you are happy because this happened because it's a discredit to the government of Nigeria. But you will all be shamed by God's grace.

Arapmoi22:
Ambush = Ambush.

Time of Ambush = 10:30pm

Some weapons can take out an escort vehicle with everyone inside once.

They entered the trap because they were also too late on that route. They weren't given room to react.

Kidnappers are most times trained by dismissed police and military officers.

Thank you o. I just don't know why people can't use their imaginations. They just talk without thinking. If all the kidnappers, whose number we don't even know,were all armed with double barrelled shotguns or pump action shotguns and pistols, they would still be able to wreck the same type of damage that they did.

kcute:
Have you seen the quality of guns the give this nscdc officers?. I believe is left over from police force. Chaii. Rip to the dead.

It's not about the quality of guns. Assault rifles are assault rifles. Even if you're armed with M50 Cal machineguns, if you're ambushed in a moving convoy ( keyword is ambush) you'd be bested by your assailants. I don't know where you guys get your ideas from. If you see what civil defense officers carry, you won't be talking anyhow.

TechCapon:
Omo they killed 8 officers? I thought nscdc officers carry guns. How are they able to kill 8 armed men without losing anyone on their side

That is the handiwork of ESN/IPOB miscreants. It's only them that can operate like this. This is not the work of any Fulani man.

Therepentant:
Opportunity for government to squinder public funds

No be only squinder. Na squirrel. Very negative mindsets everywhere.

muyico:
Where the money going ?? We still borrowing loans, from foreign national

I don't know why some folks are fond of asking inglorious questions. I just don't know.

seunmsg:
Oh, it was Awolowo that started it and not Tinubu. So tell me, how did Awolowo start the bigotry? I really want to learn.

When you prevent them from stealing from you or taking what belongs to your people they label you a bigot. I have never seen where bigotry is a criminal offense, even at that.

Brendaniel:
And those that supported Buhari for 8 years and rewarded Tinubu by supporting him for his role in supporting Buhari to destroy Nigeria will now be called what?



The bigger question people like you should be asking is why a whole state government is agitated about an unknown person's tweet, terrorists are throwing party with threats on Tik Tok and the government isn't concerned, a lady tweets her own opinion without threats but they are agitated and you people are here t o promote it.

For those who have been mentioning me

The girl never mentioned any state in the first place not even tribe, go back and read it and see, she was specific with just 2 cities that are close in proximity but the SSA saw it to drag the whole state for comparison and Yorubas decided to drag the whole tribe...

Any useless opinion will be dragged. Why is it that it is only a set of people from a section of the country that are always opinionated? They never have opinions about what is happening in their enclave but must poke their distended noses into what belongs to others in the name of voicing and opinion. Words have a propensity to attract praises or backlash.

bal4real:
No be by issuing a warning.

Arrest him if you can.

It's because of people like you that the warning was issued publicly so that when it eventually happens you won't come out to be creating a ruckus and try to politicize the arrest.

Penguin2:
Lol!

They are warning Elrufai.

Final warning or what? You will arrest him?

Arresting Elrufai will be the worst mistake of APC. Because that’s what Elrufai wants and has been courting.

I pray they make the mistake.

Hellrufai is not above the law. Neither was he an untouchable general. He was brought into prominence by OBJ. He will be dealt with and nothing will happen.

AMINDA:
CAN is now a political party. Even Bishop Kukah is now a Federal government appointee and a defacto spokesman for Tinubu. He was very fierce in his criticism of Buhari. It's now obvious that all they wanted was settlement, Just like Elrufai said.

Elrufai showed no favoritism, he "hated" everyone equally. Like he said yesterday, Elzakzaky and his Islamic movement were not Christians. They hate him too for reasons known by all and sundry. Muslim-Christian crisis and waylaying and killing of innocent commuters used to be rife in Kaduna long before Elrufai became governor. He ended it with an iron-fist. They knew he wasn't bluffing so they hated him for it. You may hate his method but it was all about picking your poison. Someone had to do it. Elrufai just happened to be "that guy".

Lying is not your calling. You're not good at it. Find another profession. Koba aakaba?

creolehunt:
Useless rhetoric. What's the point of the long hogwash? Who is the writer trying to impress?

Did ypu pay bandits or not?

If you still can't glean out, deduce and coagulate a response to that silly question of yours from the long write up,, then it calls to question your ability to comprehend the simplest of things. Your wish for the country to be in turmoil because your preferred candidate cannot become president has come to nought.

Apcshit:
What can they do? Nothing .Empty threats from empty heads

How would you not wish for other people's spaces to be in chaos when you have destroyed yours. You will always back evil against good as long as the originator of that evil is against president Tinubu. If you want to find out if it's empty threats, go to Kaduna and move mad. You will know that khaki is not leather.

TOMMYS:
Oya make them employ this gunsmithing first. Look for them. Send them to china. Russia. USA. Teach them.

Bring machines and then produce this modern International standard guns.


Nigeria government and army no serious for the matter. That's all I am saying

There is DICON producing guns already. No need for that. The government doesn't need your approval before it works.

gidgiddy:
I dont think the half a million people in IDP camps in Benue State alone, due to insecurity, care much about Simon Ekpa

So did he tell you that he is from Benue State or that he's a Northerner? Hand go soon touch you because na una remain. The cases of banditry and terrorism in the North really emboldened you people from the SE.

lol. Stop kidding. Deji can defend himself so no problem about they. However, Deji is not the only person that will be going to court to defend his claims o. Peter Obi, Serah and all other obidients that have made defamatory claims should start gathering they’re evidences, the court cases will go round.

Including the silly guy you just quoted because he just called the president a drug baron. He must provide evidence when we pick him up, Kadoso.
