I saw something on X yesterday. A someone made a point on AIT that I buy into. The president is been lied to on a regular.
If tv stations must invite people for interviews, they should invite people without political affiliation not all these jobbers looking for a way to defend their party or defaming the other.

Btw, shame still dey catch me for that photoshoot first lady did with Ugu leafs.....

That one.
That is obsessed with power, that can not tell her husband the truth
If his aids are lying to him ,she has a duty to let him feel the true pulse of the nation,not her ,she is only interested in the rasmataz of office
Very arrogant and unfeeling

Nigeria is very easy to govern,they don't ask for much and are very appreciative, they are just unlucky to have leaders like Tinubu who have nothing to offer
90% of the comments here spoke well of the minister because of his track record, no politics, no tribalism
If Tinubu had been like this,if he had faced the job he was elected to do with dedication, and not embark on owambe in office, the nation will have been behind him
There would have been no protest

Throwback:
Good to have a pro-democracy activist like Tinubu as President.

As we have been informed, the Tinubu government has promised not to deploy the army like OBJ, Jonathan, or Buhari did when they were in power.

Even the Police Force has been very civil with its engagement of the leaders of the protest in a way Nigerians have never experienced, and have promised to provide adequate security to keep everyone safe during this period.

The OP has helped to remind all Nigerians that we have a man who had the courage to lead protests and warn the government not to perpetrate any violence against the protesters.

Even the protest he led in Ojota signified a turning point in peaceful protests in the annals of Nigerian democratic resistance.

And finally in 2014, same Tinubu called for a democratic revolution that will sack the PDP from power and bring about change. He accomplished it the very next year with the supoort of Nigerian voters.

so why has the courage failed him now
He is doing everything to frustrate the protest
He has over a year to rethink his stupid policies, he was forming jagaban, listening to court jesters and sycophants

flokii:
Sowore should not just bother to come back..
He should continue promoting anti-democratic groups from his hideout in US because he is seeking validation and cheap popularity.. the people of South West will never forget.

You see that democracy M.K.O Abiola fought and died for.. our people will do everything to preserve it.

This emotional blackmail can only work on low life agbero with little education, not Nigerian youths that know what's up,abiola is not in the league of your divisive leader Tinubu, who with his party has driven Nigerians futher apart than the country have ever been just because of inordinate ambition, you guys have destroyed the,love ,peace and tranquility that has existed amongst all the tribes in Nigeria just because of power that is transient
The wrath of God will soon decend on the perpetrators of this heinous crime .

RepoMan007:
Why didn't they demand these under Buhari govt?

Oil money is not so much anymore.

The problem during buhari was not as suffocating and killing like this ,Tinubu to do,he over did everything forming jagaban, thinking he can get away with anything, may he thought the other leaders were not as smart as he is, meanwhile he is the greatest fool
The other leaders before him were gradual and measured in increasing prices of forex and fuel,and did not dump higher taxes and higher energy together on the people at the same time like Tinubu, so it wasn't about tribe but the leaders acted more wisely than Tinubu, who was behaving like someone under the influence

Salewa97:
It's quite interesting how people are quick to point fingers without considering the broader implications of these economic decisions. Floating the Naira and removing subsidies are bold moves aimed at long-term sustainability, even if they come with short-term challenges. The president is trying to steer Nigeria towards a more self-reliant economy, and that's commendable. We need to support these efforts rather than just criticize. Change is never easy, but sometimes it's necessary for growth. Let's keep pushing forward!

it is dumb or insincere supporters like you that are the problem of the country, did you read what he wrote, he did not say Tinubu should not float,he actually gave a road map on how Tinubu or any government can succeed
He is a better patriot than you,a zombie, Mr follow follow

idealogical:
This insurrectionist and anti Nigerian element is cowardly in the comfort of his home with his wife and children in the US, but beating chest while sending other people's children to disobey laws , confront the government and risk their lives. This serial loser is pathetic.

you don't have sense ,the kobold kobold, they are paying you will not let you see road,sowore has track records, you small boy of yearsterday, who's only real job has been asslicking cannot discredit him
His heroic deed during buhari is still fresh in our minds
Cowards like you cannot lace sowore's shoes
You are always establishment guy because of what you want to eat, zero integrity

ytdivine:
Until we become a production nation, this fx issues will continue to fluctuate our economy.

Not only that until dollar cease to be a store of value for the politicians and the elite,there will be no respite for the naira
What happens to allocating forex to those that really need it in an efficient manner it will reduce the demand and supply will be adequate which will reflect the appropriate prices
But buying from mallam is a distortion, keeping dollars under the bed for bribe during primaries and elections,prevent governors and government officials from converting allocation to dollars ,and stopping businesses in the country from charging dollars for consumption within the country
All this will ease the pressure on the forex and the cost will come down dramatically, the present rate is not realistic, it is caused by distortions which is deliberate, because it favours those in power

raskymonojendor:
That makes sense. The guy I voted for in Lagos last election, but truth be told, no one can wrestle power from APC in Lagos at least for the next 20 years.

Dey play

ElSudani:
Nobody is stopping anyone. We just don't want the return of Chinasa.
To some people, it is not a protest if nothing is burnt to ashes. If no one is maimed or killed.
Unfortunately, if we have to go by precedents, then this one is not going to be different from others.

ode you have been disowned, very uncivilised people, looking for more enemies for the government, with your illiterate behaviour
You can see a decent young professional unlike shameless 70yrs old man bayo onanuga

RZArecta:
you see that you guys are really evil, your hearts are filled with wickedness 24 hours a day because you completely lack empathy. What of those who have their lines linked already but were blocked too ? Wicked man

my brother that is why I avoid anybody and anything apc because they are as you described them,I don't know why people still associate with them,they are capable of unimaginable evil

Difrent:
Mass burial of people that died all over Lagos , yes over a period of time . It happens from time to time to decongest the morgues.
Abi you want us to believe people no dey die again

Una go just dey make issue where there is none

They were specific with the period
You can't spin this,that was the reason they suspended it and later did it secretly

iLegendd:
There are two sets of criminals here. The old and the new. With the old criminals, the masses benefitted: cheap fuel and food.

With the new criminals, the politicians alone are the ones benefiting because fuel and food are expensive, yet the money has been shared amongst politicians, judges, highly ranked men and some parts used in rubbing corruption on our faces by buying vehicles, planes, yatch, etc. for their leisure.

Some bought houses abroad, put some in crypto and paid their grandchildren's school fees even before they were born.

When they want to do projects, the give the contract to someone who belongs to their cartel and bloat the price so that they'll make profit and share it behind the scene in exchange for a poorly done project.

you said it all,despite this you can see many morons still supporting them as if their own life doesn't matter or is inferior to that of their leaders, how they benefit from being tribal beats me,they refused to use their God given brain

franchasofficia:
My man, the one man army, the man whose silence is louder than thunderstorm



Kenneth Okonkwo want Peter Obi to encourage Obidients to use violence to grab power like APC Moslem party.


Kenneth Okonkwo want Obi to become a party hijacker, another Bola Tinubu. Nigeria cannot get it right through our usual politicking by lies, propaganda, thuggery, use of agberos, Boko Haram and Fulani terrorists to grab power.


Kenneth we understand that you are in a hurry to end the evil operation of APC, but remember that you cannot use corruption to end corruption. You cannot use thuggery to end thuggery. We must embrace Peter Obi's new way of playing politics which shuns violence and political thuggery and hijacking of political structures using money and whatnot.



We wish you all the best in your new future political endeavors, we the obedient family will continue to stand solidly behind Peter Obi the rock, we mueve

your points are valid,part of what okonkwo did not elaborate is obi support for a fraud of a chairman of Labour who is corrupt and incompetent, that he placed opposition supporters in key positions deliberately in Labour party knowing well they will sabotage the party and indeed the sabotage the party,e.g salako in lagos
The same abure refused to recruit people into the party up north and elsewhere so he can have agents if there is no money to be made from nomination forms
This was evident in their case at the tribunal, they did not have results from many polling units to prove their wins and he still trying to romance such a man ,thinking he is humble, that's weakness not everyone can stand that

TheGift:
The problem with this unnecessarily long post is that it failed to do two things:

Acknowledge the role of Tinubu's suddenly implemented policy in throwing Nigeria into a needless crisis, from His very first day in office.

Tell us exactly which policy we should be patient with Tinubu about. (The hasty fuel subsidy removal that is still being paid through the back door? or the hasty floating of the naira in a country that has borrowed against its future oil reserves which is its main source of foreign
exchange?

Which particular policy, exactly ? I am waiting

P.S. As you are pointing out countries that are doing badly, also point out countries with leaders that are not as incompetent and clueless as many of ours.

They will never do that ,always looking for excuses to do evil and avoid at all cost any opportunity to treat the people right
You can see the deliberate lie in the write up,bode George never wrote that shit,but their usual satanic propaganda has included the name of a prominent opposition figure to make the useless write up look authentic
Very deceitful people, nothing good can ever come from their camp, they just don't have it ,because they are not honourable people, both leaders and followers

Difrent:
Audio regalia

As you yourself had admitted, no evidence.
You and that policeman go explain tire

you be mum,nothing is hidden, lagos state latter exposed themselves when they budgeted huge funds for their mass burial
Just be alive to your environment to see when karma will arrive for these people

FreeStuffsNG:
Smh. Lagos will not allow anyone prepare ground for another round of lekkilies again o.

Jeje Lomo Eko Nlo o .

May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

mumu

ceejayluv:
The guy is not getting any bread at LP. Feels it's Better he joins the bigger leagues and prepare for the next three years. There's Freedom of association .
Though I feel it was so immature of him to cast aspersions on Obi. He could have just stated that he's leaving due to the perennial crisis at the party And he's seeing no end to it.
The guy just dey shalaye like woman wey wan Comot for marriage but looking for excuses.

you are right, but all he said about obi and labour party is the absolute truth

Nvestor02:
You cannot eat your cake and have it. If these people go on with their madness, the government will neutralize them.

And if they manage to destroy FCT, the president will use the federal money to rebuild it. All my prayer now is that the federal government should remember my company in rebuilding the FCT.

mumu,what if you are not around to benefit from your evil desire
God rules in the affairs of men
Be wise

ALTERNATEID:
Do we have governors in Nigeria at all? What exactly are they doing to help the people? How come no one ever talk about state governors who collectively collects about 48% of all revenues accruable to the Federation Account?

you all try your best to shift attention from Tinubu to governors to make them the fall guy for an offence Tinubu has committed
Tinubu is responsible for the hardship the people are facing he should solve it,his policies are responsible, the governors can't do much in that regard, they have no control on monetary and fiscal policies, which is the cause of the problem
You see that when the center was better managed during the pdp years ,you will observe that no matter how poorly the governors performed in their respective states, no where in the country experienced extreme hardship like we see now

naija4life247:
Emilokan Tinubu Jagaban has outsmarted all laws of Karma and even nature. Take a look at his journey to the Presidency.

We have kicked out Goatluck Jonathan, Goatluck himself later became Buhari's friend and he is now also Tinubu's friend, you are still crying over Goatluck's kick out from Aso Rock, now I see why your are stagnant in life

for maximum effort karma happens to people at their pinnacle, see as things unfold, and don't let the lessons be lost on you

Selfish man,he wants to protect his pipeline safety contract worth billions of dollars, he has abandoned the people after he has been settled
Mr tantita

Nazgul:
I'm not a Tinubu supporter. In fact I detest the man.

But this protest is pointless cos it's definitely going to be highjacked.

by people like you to achieve your predetermined position but he go shock una say una go score own goal
Una think say una wise, ogbon sodiki

OneCandleAway:
I'm suprised the leaders are taking it serious because to me the people aren't serious yet about protest. They are still enduring the tinubulation

you are right, giving that long time notice of protest shows they are unserious

Jostoman:
Una Oro self go run when Oro see crowd.

Don't mind them, except people don't want to protest, what is the use of oro that is powerless in helping the people except when protecting the oppressors
Oro self go respect itself if people come out
Beside the oro na scam ,its like a scarecrow used for protecting the farm, it has no power and magic

Enugurangers:
"No name" government official. This is dead on arrival.

Name and shame. Name the official so that EFCC can investigate. If the EFCC can't, report to Canadian authorities.

Do not protect your criminal friend if true.

Even your government has refused to name the sponsors of terrorism in the country

Kingsmeal:
They should manufacture the report from WHO, UNICEF about the protest.

We dey wait😂

Even from WTO ,

IAmHim1:
Hmmm

This is just the First: to discourage borrowing and reduce the fractional reserve ratio of commercial banks so Opay and GTB doesn't multiply electronic money from customers deposits and loan it back to them again while still charging the same customers interest on loans and hefty collaterals

But what happens to the excess money already in circulation, Cardoso?

Remember, the minimum wage has already been increased even though it wasn't adviced

https://www.nairaland.com/8107351/nigerias-govt-alternative-minimum-wage

The excess money in circulation has to be paired with good LOCALLY PRODUCED
IF NOT, THIS ACTION SOLVES NOTHING

https://www.nairaland.com/8101772/nigerias-inflation-introduction-subsidy-old

and yes, a bag of rice can become #15000 or #5000 if and IF the rice is excess and the money in circulation is few.


https://www.nairaland.com/8069458/wealth-series-pt-2-nigeria

Damgte refinery can reduce the price of transportation of food from where it is produced to where's it is eaten and our naira won't be used to chase imported food

people are sabotaging your efforts Cardoso.

Heads up!

if your cost of production is high there is no magic that can make you sell low or cheap except you want to incure losses
Production input ,raw materials high,cost of borrowing high,cost of transportation high,taxes high
Wages low, purchasing power at the lowest ebb
How is this action of CBN going to curtail inflation under this circumstances

kingbee90:

You Tribalistic murda4kas did not say this when you pulled down GEJ, a southerner in 2015 and supported Buhari, a Northerner.

GEJ was growing Nigeria's economy despite the little curruption in his Gov & Nigerians could afford basic things to survive yet u protested and voted against him .

Tinubu is doing a bad & poor job, he is inefficient with hunger & massive corruption in the NNPC, CBN & insecurity everywhere yet you want us to support him.

This is not southern presidency but Tinubu's presidency because many sensible yorubas didn't vote for him during the last election .

They think Nigeria is still like before when you can use this type of nonsense deceit to rally round an anti people government like this under the guise of ethnic solidarity, look Tinubu is everybody enemy due to his hunger spreading administration

MasterJayJay:
USA have around 2 million farms in 2017.

What are you doing with 50 million large scale farmers? Do you have a population of trillions?

you see why the country is in trouble, that's how an average APC person thinks
And you expect them to move the country forward

Savedday2:
I know Tinubu will send soldiers to shot the protesters!

This I have seen! Who no know Tinubu?

That will be game over for him ,I know he is smatter than that ,the only place he can do that and get away with it is his conqured territory lagos
