Better. to call it Lagos-Epe Coastal Highway...

We cannot focus construction of a 600km+ coastal road within one state. ...and commission it.

Insecurity Is Not Created in a Vacuum

By
Sa'adiyyah Adebisi Hassan

Terrorists did not start under Tinubu.

Bandits did not start under Tinubu.

Boko Haram did not start under Jonathan.

But each administration made its own foolish contribution:

Jonathan: Timidity, fear of northern backlash, weak security coordination, and slow response to major national shocks like Chibok.

Buhari: Nepotism, open sympathy for “repentant” killers, disastrous amnesty/rehabilitation policy, and complete collapse of deterrence.

Tinubu: Obsession with power arithmetic, early 2027 calculation, and a soft, timid posture towards the same interests that profit from chaos.

So when people say: “They are using insecurity to destabilise Tinubu like they did Jonathan”

The translation is: “Tinubu has the same weaknesses as Jonathan so the same people are pressing the same buttons.”

You cannot be desperate for power and still claim to be shocked when power players weaponise bloodshed.

You Don’t Negotiate With Fire While Your House Is Burning

If Tinubu was serious, his response to this wave of terror would not be:

Endless meetings and statements

Blame games

PR defence from media aides

Quiet romance with “stakeholders” who publicly minimize or deny the killings

A serious president:

1. Declares total war on terror sponsors not just the boys in the bush, but the men in agbada, kaftan, and turban.

2. Rebuilds command structure appoint security chiefs based on war experience, not party membership or region.

3. Stops campaign mode bans talk of 2027 within his cabinet and party while the country bleeds.

4. Protects children and schools like national treasures safe school initiative, real military presence, technology, and intelligence, not press releases.

5. Faces the north honestly tells power brokers: “You either help stop this or you will be exposed and destroyed politically and legally.”

But that requires courage.
Courage is rare in a man whose entire life project is “I must be president at all costs.”

The Real “Destabilisation” We Should Be Worried About

Nigeria is not being destabilised primarily by “elements”.

Nigeria is being destroyed by:

Leaders who see the presidency as a trophy, not a responsibility.

Parties who see citizens as vote banks, not human beings.

A political class that plans next elections while citizens plan mass burials.

That is the true destabilisation.

And here is the brutal truth: If insecurity today is being used to weaken Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, it is because he refused to tackle it like a leader and chose to manage it like a politician.

The same way Goodluck Jonathan tried to manage it and lost both Nigeria’s security and his seat.

Power Without Purpose Is a Curse

Those saying “they are trying to destroy Tinubu like they destroyed Jonathan” are accidentally confessing one thing: Nigeria keeps electing men who want power more than they want justice.

And as long as that continues:

Bandits will keep testing the state.

Terrorists will keep mocking the uniform.

Elites will keep trading blood for bargaining power.

Citizens will keep dying and will keep being used as examples in foolish political arguments.

The solution is not to cry about “elements”.

The solution is to ask:

Does the man in power fear losing Nigerians more than he fears losing power?

Is he willing to destroy the system that benefits him in order to save the country that elected him?

If the answer is No, then stop blaming “enemies of the government”.

The real enemy of the government sits inside the government: Desperation, cowardice, and the addiction to 2027.

But the opposition worked against Jonathan and was ok with the security issues, even lobbying to cripple the security under Jonathan govt. I think those who vowed to make Nigeria ungovernable under Jonathan went the extra mile and could not now control the fire they themselve lit

The killings in the south are few and I think most of it is coming from years of wanton killings and other acts of barbarism from the North and marauding herdsman.

Southern people naturally have great respect (if not fear) for the Northerners and do not dare harm anyone of them. But the spate of brutal action by Northerners is gradually embolden some few people down south to replicate their actions.

I think if care if not taken these few would become very many in the future and killings might become proportionally reciprocal.

That is why the leaders up North must do more to rein in their people. This whole orgy of pointless bloodletting must stop now before it spirals into something else.

I would have blamed religion but we have Muslims in the Southwest and in neighbouring countries and they do not exhibit the fundamentalist strain

Since scan found nothing; try to exercise more around that area

Lack of activity can cause these sort of congi problems

I hope this does not hurt CR7 otherwise popular image. Trump is not a popular figure presently. Too much racist orientation

The commentator was right, you must give a brief context on what you are writing

This girl go suffer

Sowore you are right.just like you and other connived to bring down Jonathan govt that was doing well, and you brought this lot that have crashed everything

I have chassis number of 12 digits. They say it is typical for some vehicles from Taiwan/Japan area. How do we register it in the possap site

AMINDA:
Emergency lover of Goodluck Jonathan. Mahama and Trump lost and made a triumphant comeback, Jonathan too can. When your political enemies begin to advise you, then you're on the right track. APC are scared of Jonathan. They can't campaign against him without campaigning against themselves. For every finger they point at him, four will be pointing back at them.

I love Jona but let him not come back because the circumstance that made him loose power are still there which is the fact that he is a minority and Nigerians generally dont like good govt. We are stuck with our regional and ethnic biases

•Point of Correction - for we are not all foolish or stupid!
-Boko haram came Into Nigeria -During The PDP - Era and OBJ - was ruling at that time,so Stop -whatever you are Smoking Now and get a brain -reset - as you are not telling the TRUTH - :
1.for it is Not APC- that brought Bokoham to Nigeria - but your PDP.
2.-But always remember that your PDP Party - had 16- yrs in Power( Obasanjo, Yar'dua, Jonathan ( even spent 6- yrs) as part of the Wasted years- for Nigeria Youth and Masses.
-without building Any Infrastructures like No Road,
No Rail, No Hospital 🏥,
but brought Religion ☯️ to Nigeria from - Borno State Axis- BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE MONEY 🤑 - THAT WAS BUDGETS FOR THESE INFRASTRUCTURES - FOR 16- YRS( Both in the States and Federal?
All the Money have been Embezzled by same PDP politicians- that are now telling you they are- coalition, right!
3-Culminating to that,12 -States of the North- jointly declared themselves as -Sharia and Obasanjo tagged them - 'Political Sharia' - so everything was being done by the Northerners to Frustrate the OBJ - 2nd -Term,then.
•Get Your FACTS, though we are aware some Political Footsoldiers-- On Nairaland Forum loves it-and accordingly ,just Spill the -Falsehoods Narratives - to Drive Traffic and when you try to correct the Falsehoods and Junk- journalism here- your post is tagged,yanked off or ' you can't do that now ' is placed on your Account On Nairaland.

-Seun Osewa,
hope you are talking notice of these abnormallity in News reportage!
Just Truth and Facts.

All the bad govts in Nigeria since independence up till 2015 (55 YEARS) were only able to make Naira N150 exchange rate, fuel N97 per litre, rice N8000 for 50kg bag amongst others.

Only APC in 10 years have achieved exchange rate of N1500, Fuel N900 and rice N80000 per bag.

You be the judge

Jona did not lose, he was removed because Nigeria was and is not prepared for real change that is transformative.
He was removed because he was from a minority and not a member of the cabal.

The Jona years witnessed a stable economy by the good work and policies of he economic team led by Nkonjo Iweala. Those good olds are gone forever

They nominated him nao,,,, it was open news.

If you say he did not negotiate for them that is different

BreakingNews21:
Huh, I see some have selective memories about insecurity or are too young to remember.

"There was a series of car bombings in Abuja, Nigeria, on October 1, 2010, during the country's 50th independence day celebrations, killing at least eight people. A group linked to discontent in the oil-producing region claimed responsibility for the attack. Charles Okah and his associate were later sentenced to life in prison for their involvement in these bombings."

Abuja Naija @50 Bomb Blast In Pictures - Politics - Nairaland <----
https://www.nairaland.com/523935/abuja-naija-50-bomb-blast

"That is exactly the point. The only time Bombings took place in Abuja was when Jonathan was President. Even at the height of the Niger Delta crisis no group carry mind near Abuja, except when their own brother Jona enter as President...an interesting tale!!

To cap it all Abuja bombings ended when Jonathan left power in 2015 hahahahaha.

In fact Late PMB confidently removed all the checkpoints for Abuja as soon as he come power. No terrorist cell dislodged, no terrorist caught and prosecuted, all Abuja checkpoints removed.....and no more Abuja bombing again. Na wa o. Ok na body language

But I recall there was much traffic relief when those checkpoints were removed...dat na one side wey let me remember.
