Hmmmm

10 years later you won't see the light of it.

Shut up.

The internet you are using, it was one day that they signed MOU to establish it, via telecoms infrastructure, including fibre-optic cables etc.

And today you still enjoy it, decades later.

Tetrahedron:
Throw the Chinese animals in jail!

Summary executions for all Nigerians found complicit!

This will send shockwaves and warning to all illegal mining operations in Nigeria that Nigeria will not tolerate illegal mining of lithium and other precious minerals

I miss the military!!!

You cannot execute the Nigerian just because he is Nigerian, and leave the Chinese to enjoy oloshos and chinese food delivery in prison.

They can all be jailed.

mrvitalis:
Tell us the Tinubu policy that would yield future gains I'm waiting just name 2

I bet you he won't dare name any because he knows there is none

Removal of fuel subsidies frees us from having to BORROW 10 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR to pay for them.

Do you have 10 BILLION DOLLARS in your account to fund the subsidy?

Go ahead nau...

Today we are paying the same or lower petrol price as people in Ghana, Ivory Coast etc.

We have to learn to live without fuel subsidies.

The population of 240 million is too HUGE for us to afford fuel subsidies with our tiny oil income of 35 billion dollars a year.

That we produce oil does not mean we are oil-rich. Our daily output is 1.8 million barrels a day while the US, Saudi etc, produce 12 million barrels a day plus. We don't have as much oil as we think we do. So the oil we have, we must sell it at market price for it to make sense.

I AM NOT SURPRISED THEY WERE RELEASED.

IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF TIME.

THIS IS NOT SOMETHING TINUBU WANTS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH.

RENO OMOKRI, IT IS TIME TO MOVE UP IN YOUR INTELLECT BY REJECTING FOREIGN IMPOSED RELIGION LIKE CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM, AND ADVOCATING FOR THE RECLAMATION OF OUR TRADITIONAL RELIGIONS, SUITABLY UPDATED FOR MODERN CONVENTION.

THIS IS WHAT THE CHINESE, INDIANS AND JAPANESE HAVE DONE.

IN FACT THERE ARE OVER 200,000 SHRINES IN JAPAN, MANY BUILT AND MAINTAINED BY THE GOVT.

THEY PRACTICE SHINTOISM, WHICH IS IDENTICAL TO EDO RELIGION. THEY REPLACED ANIMAL SACRIFICE WITH FOOD AND FLOWERS.

WE SHOULD BE DOING LIKE THEM INSTEAD OF WORSHIPING AN IMPORTED WHITE MAN OR ARAB MAN AS OUR “SAVIOUR”.

Eriokanmi:
Great! A good reason western countries will continue to be ahead in everything. The guy isn't only young but also black. At times you'd be wondering if there were no qualified whites to be voted into those exalted offices. Merit says it all.

Back home, we're still drooling over tribalism and religous bigotry in the choice of a leader. We're not ready to free ourselves yet.

SHUT UP AND STOP TALKING RUBBISH.

THE BLACK AND ASIAN COMMUNITY IN THE UK NUMBERS MILLIONS OF PEOPLE.

THAT IS THEIR COUNTRY. THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST BY HAVING ALL THE BIG GOVT JOBS GOING TO WHITE PEOPLE.

THERE IS NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE SEEING, AND IT DOESN’T MEAN THAT THERE IS NO LONGER ANY RACISM IN EUROPE OR UK.

NAÏVE SIMPLETON.

babasolution:
These are modern development, your GENERATION also had modern development generations before you didn't have,but they bequeathed a lot,the Awolowo legacy still stands today,what legacy does your GENERATION have?

These are “modern development”?

Is it free? Did it not come from government funding, and investment in telecommunications?

You take your digital connectivity for granted because you are a pampered ignoramus.

There are many parts of Africa and the world where internet access and digital connectivity are far lower, more expensive, and more archaic than in Nigeria.

Are those countries not part of the “modern development”?

Georgry:
Bro I am not an English student so you can scan for grammar all you want I don't care because English doesn't pay my bill, your generation were too fixated on learning the English language yet you failed the country, your generation are actually the most useless generation, the gen Z and the gen Y are doing their best but the rot your generation created is too much, plus you don't know me so you can keep your "your mates are this and that" rubbish and shove it down your ass, your mate is Tinubu but all you've achieved at your age is wasting away on Nairaland defending Tinubu's wicked policies that has wiped out thousand of startup business by the gen z and y.

OLD USELESS THING!!

Stupid school dropout talking rubbish about “generation”?

What “generation”?

So are YOU responsible for what is going on in Nigeria TODAY?

Should the next generation blame YOU if things are worse for them in 20 years’ time?

If you are not responsible for what is happening today, how am I responsible for what happened 20 or 30 years ago?

Ewu.

Better get it into your mumu head that any blame for the state of the country goes DIRECTLY to the actual leadership of the country, not to any FCKING “generation”.

Unless you saw me or my father or mother in ASO ROCK or DODAN BARRACKS, don’t you go blaming ME for any blasted thing happening in the country.

ch214:
The essence of impeaching President Bola Tinubu revolves around holding him accountable for various issues, including:

Economic Mismanagement: Rising living costs and unemployment rates have left many Nigerians struggling.

Insecurity: The country is grappling with Boko Haram and banditry, leading to widespread dissatisfaction with Tinubu's handling of security.

Allegations of Corruption: Tinubu faces corruption allegations, eroding public trust in his administration.

Lack of Accountability: Critics argue that Tinubu's government has not been transparent or accountable, fueling frustration among Nigerians.

These concerns have sparked calls for impeachment, with many believing it's necessary to prevent further damage to the country.

SHUT UP AND GO AND DO SOMETHING USEFUL WITH YOUR LIFE.

YOUR MATES, IN FACT YOUR JUNIORS ARE USING THAT SAME PHONE YOU ARE USING TO ABUSE TINUBU, TO BANK THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS A MONTH IN THIS COUNTRY.

THAT PHONE/PC AND DIGITAL CONNECTIVITY YOU ENJOY IS A GOLDMINE IF YOU WOULD USE YOUR HEAD.

The government has stepped into the matter, and everything is under review.

Why are you pretending that you don’t know this?

Akmike1983:
If not for the EVIL LEADERS we have, what will Nigerians be looking for in Libia, i just pray some of the Nigerian leaders families can tell them the truth that the masses are suffering

SHUT YOUR DIRTY MOUTH.

WHICH “EVIL LEADER” SENT YOUR MOTHER TO WAR TORN LIBYA?

YOU ACT STUPID AND BRAINLESS AND THEN BLAME YOUR “LEADERS” FOR YOUR OWN STUPIDITY AND BRAINLESSNESS.

WHY STOP AT LIBYA?

GO TO UKRAINE AND SYRIA, YEMEN AND IRAQ PLUS AFGHANISTAN TOO.

WHEN THEY CATCH YOU THERE, TELL THEM IT WAS “EVIL NIGERIAN LEADERS” THAT SENT YOU.

richmond500:
Oga calm down, some of them just went for businesses.
Why will they arrest people?

STUPID FCKING DUNCE.

WHY WOULD YOU GO TO A COUNTRY WITH NO PRESIDENT AND RULED BY WARLORDS TO DO BUSINESS?

CAN ANY OF THEM GO TO SOMALIA, SUDAN OR DRC TO DO BUSINESS?

NO. BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS USE THEIR SENSE WHEN IT COMES TO BLACK COUNTRIES AND BLACK PEOPLE.

BUT LET AN ARAB OR WHITE COUNTRY BE ENGULFED IN WAR AND LAWLESSNESS, AND THESE EMPTY-HEADED NIGERIAN DUNDERHEADS WILL STILL GO THERE BECAUSE THEY ARE STUPID AND DUMB AND ARE SOAKED IN RACIAL INFERIORITY COMPLEX.

THAT IS WHY THEY ARE IN WAR-TORN LIBYA “DOING BUSINESS”.

STUPID, DUMB THINGS.

ednut1:
her mother stole someone else identity to register her that one has been proven.

There are allegations that she wasn’t born in South Africa as claimed. And they didn’t answer the invitation to come explain

INVITATION TO EXPLAIN WHAT?

AFTER THEY ALREADY MESSED HER UP AND DISGRACED HER?

SHE MUST NOW GO TO THEIR POLICE STATION SO THEY CAN FINISH HER UP THERE ABI?

YOU ARE VERY STUPID.

FCK YOU, FCK SOUTH AFRICA, AND FCK YOUR NASTY, WORTHLESS ZULU SPEAR CHUCKER INVITATION.

SPIT.

EnglandAmaka:
Isn't time boycott South African brands trends. They will lose more than Nigeria, Nigeria has virtually no business in South Africa, except for the Nigerians there. They have many businesses here. They will lose more

THIS IS WHY I MISS MILITARY REGIMES IN NIGERIA.

THEY DON’T TOLERATE THIS TYPE OF NONSENSE.

BY NOW WE WOULD HAVE CUT OFF DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH SOUTH AFRICA AND SENT THEIR AMBASSADOR HOME, AND KICKED THEIR COMPANIES OUT OF NIGERIA.

IMAGINE IF GEN. SANI ABACHA WAS IN CHARGE?

OR BABANGIDA?

SOUTH AFRICA WOULD NEVER TRY THIS NONSENSE.

THIS DEMOCRACY OF A THING IS SO ANNOYING.

IT MAKES US WEAK.

Sonnobax15:

I remembered how I used to shed tears back then whenever I used to watch the south African Movie --"Sarafina". Seeing how the whites enslaved them and how apartheid gained lots of ground in south Africa really broke my heart then,as a kid....

But now I'm an adult, only for me to realize that the descendants of the same people whom we wept and fought for have turned to embittered souls who don't only hate but also find succour in hating their fellow blacks who stood beside them in their time of struggle....

Honestly,these generation of south Africans are a big disgrace to the black race.......They certainly deserves more than what they're being served by their white Masters even in their own lands....

They are a complete and utter disgrace.

A tiny minority of whites, ie 5% of their population, own 80% of the land in South Africa.

Is that not an illegal, grossly unfair situation?

Why is that not a focus of their legal system, instead of a young black African girl from Nigeria?

Those people are a total disgrace.

Georgry:
No offence but your generation failed Nigeria, if your generation had built good road, build a refinery and give us electricity when a naira was equal to a pound we would not have been in this mess today.

Your problem is that you don't even sound well educated. Your diction is all over the place. You sound like one of those lazy students that couldn't be bothered with anything, and now it's ''blame Nigeria'' time.

Nigeria has provided you with education and also broadband digital connectivity by investing billions of dollars in fibre optic cables and telecoms infrastructure.

You can start and run a business on your smartphone, often with ZERO INVESTMENT, something my generation couldn't even DREAM OF.

You can learn any skill on YouTube for free and start offering your services from your house there.

Your mates are using this digital infrastructure to make SERIOUS MONEY, in all sectors, while you are here talking rubbish about ''good road'' and ''refinery'' - using the digital infrastructure to moan and groan on social media instead of using it to be productive like your mates.

LAZY, USELESS THING.

babasolution:
Obasanjo did not order shit,you are evil GENERATION of liers,always wanting to deceive the younger generation,Obasanjo never ordered shit.Obasanjo years were the peak of foreign music play in Nigeria

Small bomboy that was sucking his mum's breast, or maybe wasn't even born in the year 2000 when OBJ gave the order.

Learn to shut your dirty trap when your elders are teaching you facts about your history.

Here's Reno Omokri confirming OBJ's role in the rise of Afrobeats:


......


Nigerians did not use to listen to Nigerian music. We started listening to our local music when President Obasanjo and Ben Murray-Bruce implemented the 60% local content idea, forcing our radio and TV stations to play 60% local music. People complained. Today, not only do we love and listen to our indigenous music, Afrobeats is now the number one music genre on Earth.

Without Obasanjo and Ben Murray-Bruce being intentional about making Nigerians listen to local music, there could not have been Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage, Rema and Kizz Daniel. And I can prove it. Tiwa and Naira Marley are British citizens. They had to leave the UK for Nigeria to succeed locally here and globally thereafter.

That policy influenced Glo to use local artistes as brand ambassadors. And they sent them to etiquette school. Glo had P-Square on billboards all over Lagos and Nigeria. You could not go from Ikoyi to Victoria Island without seeing a giant Goo billboard with Nigerian music stars.

From Glo ambassadors, they were featured on CNN for the Glo with Pride campaign, and that blew our artistes up worldwide.

MTN did not start doing it until they saw Glo doing it. And that is the difference between a homegrown company and a foreign one. One had total commitment. The other is often here to exploit.

Good policy creates global hegemony.

The same thing will happen to Naira flotation. The Naira will find its natural value, and we will complain because we can no longer afford foreign goods and services as before. When we realise that nobody is coming to save us, we will accept the situation and be de Glo instead of MTN or Airtel and use IVM instead of Toyota and Range Rovers. We will toast our successes at Cubana and Quillox with palm wine rather than Moét, champagne, and scotch whiskey. We will fly Air Peace and replace custard with ogi and akamu.

Then, when we start featuring these made-in-Nigian goods and services in Nollywood movies and Afrobeat songs, the rest of the world will also buy them.

It is a template that never fails. When you love yourself, others will also love you. When you love your music and movies, others will also patronise them. When you celebrate your local goods and services, the rest of the world will venerate made in Nigeria. It begins with us. Naira flotation is good for Nigeria. Embrace it!

Nigeria must use her political, economic, military and social policies to promote her own military-industrial complex rather than just remaining a consumer nation. We must be prosumers, people who consume what they produce!

MrPresident1:
End time refinery

Which one is end time refinery again?

You people just say all kinds of stuff on this forum.

10mobile:
Is your name Methuselah? Your generation failed to birth a great country. So, we threw away everything you cherished.

Relax. We are happy with the rise of Afrobeats. It was Obasanjo (''my generation'') who ordered radio stations to play a minimum 60% local content in 2000, which made local musicians become hot cakes.

That ls why Nigeria is a world music powerhouse today, boasting multiple world class stars.

And make no mistake, AFROBEATS came from our earlier R&B culture, and local artistes like Remedies, 2Shotz etc simply blended those grooves with indigenous Nigerian melodies and rhythms to start AFROBEATS.

So without us there would be no you.

In the R&B days of the 80s, 90s etc, before this your Pangolo music began reigning, this was the kind of jam we used to chill with at parties, just before the main grooving starts.

Enjoy. Whisper in the Dark by Dionne Warwick.

NAME ME ONE THING BILL GATES DID FOR YOU.

DID HE BUILD THE SCHOOLS YOU ATTENDED?

DID HE BUILD ANY ROADS YOU HAVE EVER RIDDEN ON?

DID HE EVER PROVIDE EMPLOYMENT FOR YOUR FATHER OR YOUR MOTHER?

THE HOSPITAL YOU WERE BORN IN, WAS IT BILL GATES THAT BUILT IT?

iI wonder what will happen if he runs for president. Very smart guy.

This man is looking like a presidential material.

Extremely intelligent and eloquent, with solid suggestions for moving the nation forward.

400 hundred years of slavery has destroyed black South Africa with a post apartheid syndrome the world cannot cure.

These willing subjugated and dispossessed slaves usually feel so small whenever other African blssks strive in excellence. Bitter kwerekwere....

Remember miss south Africa is usually white or Asian, that's how inferior black south Africa is.

Honestly they are an utter disgrace.

They made a white girl their Miss South Africa, and then went ahead to discredit, persecute and hound a black African contestant.

They are a pure disgrace.

Please ignore these children of yesterday typing rubbish.

Very true.
Reason George Weah couldn't win it too.

Just because one black person passed through doesn’t mean there’s no racism or bias against other blacks.

Use your brain and stop being stupid.

helinues:
The oppositions never pray for the government to succeed hence undermining any government's efforts.

That's why one shouldn't be distracted with their market noise

True.

ycat:
This baboon had nothing to do with it, Nigerian musics are just damn good and it has always been good but wherever water goes, it always finds its level. I found out about Nikki Minaj and Candi B from Nairaland, because I don't belong where melody is missing, any music you can't figure out who sang it just by hearing the beat alone I don't want it.

Small boy typing rubbish.
