badoh: Criticize Tinubu from now till they Kingdom come, that doesn't erase the fact that you're a failure in politics. It is not a must you must be president, you lack national appeal both in the north and the south and you think you can become the president. If truly you want to make a change, start as a councillor, local government chairman or at worst house of rep member and let's see your impact. If you can mobilize people in your senatorial district to vote for you and win and you can give those senators wotowoto by exposing them and their atrocities, that's when people will know you're actually fighting for them. However, this name calling and using derogatory names on the president of your country as if you're not cultured is what I don't subscribe to. You're free to criticize the office of the president and his policies but calling him useless is uncalled for and no one in his right senses will support you on this. Typical Nigerian, miseducated Nigerian. What is your definition of someone who succeeds in politics?😂 |

DrRasheed: See Previous thread https://www.nairaland.com/8513830/why-northern-food-mostly-disliked Despite you crafty speech like a demagogue, I still maintain my stand. Not swayed by your wordcraft. Northern food are not hygienic, and not delicious as you think. I based in Abuja. I see the way the road side northerners food seller make their food and how some of my guys who have tasted it complaining unlike their Southern counterparts. This is where you get it wrong, it's not about prejudice or hatred. Most people are accustomed to their prefer taste in food. Lest I forget, are you an APC member? Your piece looks like something an APC member could have written. |

When your Tinubu was complaining, making mockery of GEJ government that time, what should we call that? You guys are just funny, you all think you are the only one that can ditch insults. Funny lots. |

CoronaVirusPro: God bless you patriot!
People are just hate filled and find it difficult to acknowledge the wins of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR).
From daily crude production, power supply, NGX and debt reduction, His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) has made considerable and noticeable wins in those sector.
His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is performing miracles that ought to be applauded and documented for future generations.
Nevertheless, God bless His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) You partisan are just funny praising the government for what? How has this benefitted the common man? All these are more money for them to steal. I wonder if they say being partisan is alien not to see the truth. |

shegzhkn: What do you mean brilliant because I'm trying to infer from your submission what that really meant , do you mean rote memorization and that they lack innate fluid intelligence. Exactly💯My earlier comment you responded to, I meant intelligent, not educated. Whereas, most Nigerians are educated-illiterates. The Nigeria educational system doesn’t reward intelligence. |

shegzhkn: Why did you say that?? Check around you, you will see the results. When I say Nigerians, I meant like 70 to 85 per cent of Nigerians are not intelligent. What majority term as intelligent here is canny (wayo). The system itself does not encourage one being intelligent but brilliant. That's why schools only reward people that are brilliant, not the intelligent ones. T for thanks. |

NairalandForumo: no, the mods are joining to delete comments on targeted accounts and putting the blame on bots, at some point you could not criticize Tinubu and the entire APC without getting a ban.
I have told you guys as long as you people keep using this platform to play politics, you guys will keep going round the circle, if you guys were to be fair, there are accounts here that should have been closed permanently, and if such accounts keep coming up you keep closing them, those accounts that are politically sponsored to drive hate and division.
but no, you guys are leaving them and trying to stifle opposing voices speaking the truth...
Then I would have sacked Mynd44 a long time ago because he is clearly partisan and biased (sorry to say).
The truth is as long as you people keep playing politics which is breeding injustice on this platform you people will keep having problems... Lol, you know that Mynd44, that guy just dey funny. I ask am someday say why should he be political as a mod, you cam imagine his flimsy excuses🤣🤣🤣 I just tire for the guy by saying I don hear am... |

malali: Create it with design to prevent abuse.
Who is going to fund it ?
Some states can barely feed themselves ?
Is better for the bandits in some of these states to run for election and come to Abuja to state their greivances. State that can't fund it will retain the old structure, using the FG police. Is that too hard? While state that can fund state police will be relieved of the Federal Policing system and hierarchy in the state. |

Your party and their party comprises of the same circus and people mixed with other people who may either want to serve the Nation or for their own selfish reasons. I know people like you.

It's kind of hard to come by people who are intelligent in Nigeria. You know in Nigeria, we all have one pattern way of thinking. And no thanks to our academic institutions who only enforce brilliance (la cram la pour). Although, I've met intelligent Nigerians, and when I see one, I always keep in touch with them. |

sreamsense: If the 2 millions were not wasted by the man that ran to Abidjan on mini-skirt or skirt and blouse on what should have been peaceful resolution, And if another set of people were not wasted by that lawyer that called himself Biafra leader before he retired as landlord due to old age. And if and if those other greedy leaders serving jail terms in Finland and the other one in Nigeria prison after wasting many people without nearing Biafra they wasted people on behalf. Maybe if all these people were not wasted, they would have been among the rated If Gowon had kept part of the bargain in the Aburi accord, maybe all these you listed wouldn't have happened. And maybe if Awolowo had not suggested to the Gowon-led government that time to weaponise hunger against Biafra during the war, maybe all what you listed would have be unnecessary.

tfelicityk: I have never come across opposition parties speak on the way forward and incentive programme they have in place to tackle all the this menace of insecurities and other crimes vices. They use all this blame games and words. Whenever they hold on to power they become same too. So Datti will want to campaign, criticise, blame like his principal did for 1year and some months.
I expected any opposition parties to come out with good incentives programs and planned to convince Nigerians. And state possibilities of executing those proposed planned. Just like what the present President did with his RENEW HOPE AGENDA. Yeye hope agenda, or you mean hopeless agenda? The same way your president posted fake projects on his twitter page which he later delete because e don cast. You want make opposition bring out all their plans make you people steal am the way Buhari stole Sure-P and rebranded it into N-Power, and some other projects from PDP government. I still wonder why people support APC in this 21st century. Till 2015, I'm still trying to grasp what APC has done better and differently from PDP |

maxkia: Stop displaying your un informed self. I was a Million from 2015_2023. Not everyone is Yahoo before you ask how I got the millions . I import cow skin from Tanzania, dry cow skin known as Ponmo Ijebu. You can look my company up on Google.. ponmomax limited.. I am an importer and do sell wholesale to South west Oyo, Ogun , Ondo , Osun , Even far north Kano and Also south south Eket . But since Tinubu came on board , all his Import Duties , VAT , custom Levies , Terminal Charges and above all Exchange rate made A container of Ponmo go up from 35M to about 85M clearing cost inclusive.. You see the % increase in cost of imports alone . Mind you the Purchasing power of local consumers has also reduced . So how do one cope with suck exchange rate and still make profit ? Right now , feeding Alone is by God's grace . I Live in a 4 bedrooms duplex in Badagry,Hence I have a roof over my head .. But I can't state the last time I had millions flow through my account because clients stopped importing too . Tinubu Wiped off the middle class with his draconians policies You get time to dey explain to these neat-wheats online ooo😂 |
