What kind of Gov' is this?
So, there is an elderly retiree i sometimes gist with, i saw him today and he looked worried, i greeted him, he answered and kept quiet. Unlike him, he would have said more than just answering the greetings. After few minutes of keeping quiet, the next think he said was "what kind of gov' is this?"

I looked at him and asked what the matter was, he said, he transfered 60k to someone from his Access account and 19k was removed as tax. So, me, i don't understand oh. Thats way too much oh.. If tax like this is removed from transfers, then prices of commodities would go up in due time. Wetin them dey use the tax money do self?

I want to assume you are educated so my response to you will be based on the logical meaning you find in that story.

How do you assume 19k deduction is solely for tax deduction if truly you are educated.

Where is the place of common sense in this?

Haven't you made a transfer of up to 50k this year, how much was deducted from such transfer you made?

Why bringing unverified claim here when you could have help the old man trace what actually caused the deduction.

[url][/url] name one course in history beneficial to the rest of the country that anyone from your part of the country as ever championed or stick is neck out for Nigeria except hiding behind your keyboard and crying online……Una go cry tire, Yoruba no be Una mate and here is history reminding us of that fact

You can see they have ran away. One thing you can take away from them is gaslighting and bareface lies.

Once you confront them with fact they switch to insult while they run for cover

SenecaTheYonger:
Have any of them indicated their interest to compete for Presidency? Did your brain not tell you they're not interested? Why is their name coming up as examples in your comment? Is it not to elect the only businessman we have that is showing interest in presidency? Must we die under politicians? For 65 years we've voted the same politicians, are you guys not tired of loosing? Nigeria is already a laughing stock in the world stage. Even the smallest country no longer respect Nigeria, which we saw clearly after Anthony Joshua incident.

Your comment show you are a foreigner.

Jonathan was not interested in the national politics until Obasanjo brought him into limelight, ditto for Yaradua.

Don't dabble into what you don't know, if the power that be want any of them they will bring them forth to come and contest.

Just know that we won't settle for a container economist and a supermarket business man

SenecaTheYonger:
We need our own TRUMP in Nigeria and that is Peter Obi.

One thing Trump and Obi share in common is that they are successful businessmen.


Politicians are just to evil to run a country. We need to try a businessperson, just like America has done

If we want to try business people, Obi doesn't fit in, we would be looking in the direction of Dangote, Otedola. No one will settle for importer who destroyed our local manufacturing sector with imported items

Whether you like Trump or hate him, you cannot deny that he puts America first before any political belief or godfather, or cabal.

We need someone that will put Nigerians first.

We need a Businessman. Enough of politicians. There is not a single good career politician in Nigeria.

43Ronin:
Amechi cannot even get up to one thousand votes in the entire SS talkless of SE. Amechi was a disappointment during his tenure as governor of rivers. He foisted the genocidal terrorist called buhari and was allegedly getting 4 billion every month for nigerDelta women empowerment. Amechi doesnt even live in rivers state as we speak. Such a humongous failure of epic proportions

You guys are something else. Can Peter Obi measure up to Amaechi in infrastructural development.

Can you compare someone who build the best school with someone who did not start and complete ordinary Primary School?

mcquin:
Before spitting vile, I think you should see my rejoinder on this. For ease, I’ll reproduce;

For the sake of argument, let us agree Igbos supported it then, seeing the wisdom in meritocracy, they have leaned in that direction.

Why would those who at the start saw the wisdom in merits, switch to quota system? We Dey go back or front?

Can you explain how Igbo have leaned in the direction of meritocracy

UrVillageChief:
You still chose to defend the most stupid and indefensible thing despite the facts and evidence staring at you straight in the eyes. Now imagine it was the South Westerners who voted in support of this very quota system, were you and your kinsmen going to be this calm? Wouldn’t this thread be filled with biles and tantrums already?
Now we know who and who are the true fulanis’ slaves. They dance to the tunes of the Fulanis from time immemorial.
Which juju did the Fulanis even use on those other southerners who supported it when the sane ones walked out?

You dey mind him. They were in government right from the 80s and throughout the military regime and up to Jonathan regime eating, dinning and wrecking the economy, today they are crying because they lost and now trying to change the story.

mcquin:
Buhari is a product of the system and yorubas in their numbers supported him on here for 8 years.

I cannot begin to comb threads here where concerns have been raised about quota system especially in admissions into our schools. It’s always “your side” supporting the lunacy.

It serves me no good arguing this as it is akin to asking me for proof whether yorubas supported Buhari, a total waste of time.

Stop ranting and speak fact. SW still maintain the highest entry requirement into the university up till today.

Bring your fact that show SW support quota system.

Maybe Nigeria started in 2015.

Who support Shehu Shahari a mere nursery school teacher and even deputized him.

Who support and organize 1million match for Sanni Abacha

Today you are presenting a 3rd class graduate of Philosophy to come and govern Nigeris

LegendHero:
Who switched to quota system?

The guy can't answer that.

mcquin:
For the sake of argument, let us agree Igbos supported it then, seeing the wisdom in meritocracy, they have leaned in that direction.

How did the Yoruba switch to support quota system. Be specific and stop mumbling words.

The wrong rannation many of you want to pain on SM requires immediate rebuttal.

The people that were sharing wheelbarrow as constituency project want to measure SW in governance. Yet they were fleeing their region in droves, from Akure to Indian to Abeokuta has become their heaven on earth.

mcquin:
But that isn’t the issue of concern and yes I get to support Tinubu from time to time.

The question is, why do you guys now support quota system? On very many national issues inclusive the quota system problem, even when northerners fail to defend it, certain southern elements (they know themselves) will be out in full support. Same persons supported a Buhari who knew next to nothing about improving economy, for good 8 years.

Who and who support quota system. This is record staring you in the face that the Yoruba rejected quota system. Present your document that state they have changed their stance

Racoon:
Just imagine a region that said brilliant fellas like VP Osinbajo, Akinwumi Adeshina can't mount leadership saddle except the likes of what Nigeria got on seat today. So the ronuism is not merit persea but to promote the worst of all worsts.

Tinubu is a first class graduate accountant, far apart from a mere 3rd class Philosophy graduate

Racoon:
Chai! What a time to be alive. Is it not an irony that today, the same region have given this nation all manner of despicable people especially certificate forgers, in govt?

Your region gave the first organ harvester senator in the whole world.

The first Nigeria Senator to serve jail term abroad

SeeWahala:
Hehehe 🤭

This protest was done immediately before the government made them aware that the "system" was actually enacted against the Igbos who naturally merited everything

Once the junior RoNu students found out the gimmick they all folded their placards and vacated the streets to celebrate their 'One Nigeria'" with their Hausa/Fulani brothers 🤗

Try and make sense. Your brothers supported quota system, today it has backfired, just the way they abolished regional government but are the one crying most

TruthHurts1:
Wow! So Yorubas used to be at the forefront of championing meritocracy in Nigeria?

Judging by the timeline, many of those students would be the ones running Nigeria today, but instead of promoting meritocracy, they are tolerating it and some of them are even celebrating it while it destroys meaningful progress in Nigeria.

They have done their on bit, it is left to you to continue from where they stopped. But what are you using your youthful age to do?

Sit down and expect the aged one to come and do it for you.

Let me help you shame small.

My point is who will bankroll ADC in the presidential election. Those that stole money and ran to ADC are being picked one after the other while others like El Rufai are scared of spending their money now when they have 2031 to contend with.

The permutation doesn't favour opposition, my advice to Peter Obi is to decamp to APC

reddingtonblack:
It


Scrap that idea of " Spy" However i think we should address those making aspersion that it is BAD Atiku son is not head stuck in his father Ass ...
What just happen in the Atiku family is one of the beauties of democracy .. people shouldnt forget *Freedom of association* thats properly one luxury Seyi Tinubu will never be able to afford cos he must walk in his father shoe ..

As people we should leave sentiments and emotions aside ....we should acknowledge its a welcome development that can further strengthen our democracy .. freedom of association

Though I agree completely with right of individual to chose his part away from parent but the circumstances at which this occurred will affect Atiku, this was a son who has been in the same camp with the dad and even won the HoR seat in PDP where his dad contested as presidential candidate and won in Kano that was largely populated by NNPP to now suddenly dump Atiku camp into Tinubu camp will death a devastating blow to Atiku.

The implication of such action at the eve of election far outweigh any information or advice he may have to offer his dad.

It's like expecting Gumi son as a military officer be given vital information regarding the arrest of Gumi for terrorism, no one does that

TenQ:
It is the level of money contribution that determine your level of access to Party strategy and position. Atiku's son can wield the kind of money required

As how?

We have 360HoR member, and he is one out of about 20members from Kano state. What advantage will that decamp offer Atiku either as a spy or whatever anyone want to term it.

However, that action is capable of sending wrong signal to people who may want to consider Atiku in ADC but his sons action is a setback to such move. It is a fundamental flaws that will hunt Atiku in the coming election.

Will anyone like to stake his life, his money for Atiku project when his son is running away from such project?

Mrexcell:
Tinibu's style of politics shows he is really a very weak old man who is very scared of any kind of competition or opposition.

You and your party that is strong and agile should resist the temptation and go and win the election. No need of shalaye

OKOATA:
He's doing all of these and his minions will be shouting and crying all over the space that he will win. He's crippling opposition, causing disarray, buying all governors and he's the person that will win?

If you allowed yourself to bought then you are not fit to be complaining.

Bobloco:
That’s the wrong question. The issue isn’t whether the ADC stands a chance without an Atiku/Obi ticket; it’s whether any election conducted under Tinubu in 2027 will be credible at all, or remembered as one of the worst and most compromised elections in Nigeria’s history. When state institutions are openly bent to serve the ruling party, the problem is no longer the opposition’s candidates but the integrity of the entire electoral process.

Where were you when Maurice Iwu conducted election and result were merely written from Abuja in favour of PDP.

Were you equally not aware of Peter Obi scoring 95% win rate due to massive rigging for him.

Just carry your nonsense false alarm comot here, tell your party to get prepared for the election or they should keep kwayet

anonimi:
Is that why kwankwaso and his red cap NNPP people are in Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Criminals, APC already



Ordinary Nigeirans who are tired of enduring APC extreme poverty shege and palliative sharing progreThief shenanigans.


Ordinary Nigerians who want a return to the 16 years of PDP prosperity and high employment productivity growth, built on deregulation and privatisation policies.

Are you one of those Nigerians already?
Or what are you waiting for to join the REVIVAL group of Nigerians

Your emotional rants doesn't portray you as someone who understands Nigeria politics, you want sane Nigeria who witnessed the sale of our patrimony by Atiku to himself to come back and sell off the remaining ones?

Nigerian are wise, and the know that they opposition are worse than than the current government.

anonimi:
Did you play close attention to his daughter as well?


Abi she is not Atiku's close family member to you ni

There's no how you spin it, it is a home goal. It show clearly that Atiku family believes that Tinubu is better than Atiku, hence he pitch tent with who he believes will win the election.

Atiku son understand the trend especially in the north and Kano in particular with their consciousness and strong awareness in Nigeria politics are beginning to lean strongly towards APC. These are facts on ground, you may chose to dismiss it but politics doesn't run on emotions and those who want to put their money into it will do due diligence.

Who is going to finance ADC presidential candidate in 2027 election?

I can see many dumb people saying Atiku son is planted as a spy, and I asked is that how any of them would have played it if they were in same position, using your biological son as a spy on your opponent when there are 1000 of neutral politicians you can use.

Many with zero idea in political just come online to type rubbish

wunmi590:


He's going there to be planted as a mole and fish out strong I formation from them and give to his father...

Why do you think El rufai children have not also defected to ADC?

You guys are so intellectually lazy. Does it
make any sense for Atiku to use his son as mole where there are 100 of neutral people he can use.

What value will Atiku son as a mole offer Atiku compared to the public damage the son defection will cause?

Jagabanfromcali:
Yes APC will do that easily given their mad lust for power and control but [b]PDP was a national party and had the interest of Nigerians largely at heart unlike [/b]APC and will not go to that extent to retain power , even in 2031 APC won’t give up
Power

Did you just say PDP had Nigeria interest at heart?

The Nigeria interest that couldn't give us light

The interest that couldn't build 2nd Niger bridge.

The interest that support university strikes
The interest that enjoys queueing at the filling station for days?

Continue dey wine yourself, seems na yesterday Dem born you

AMINDA:
You all have started again. You went wild with celebrations yesterday when the fake news broke that he has permitted the governor to decamp to APC. Here you are now, calling him names. Why can't you all have some self respect? He has already told Tinubu what he must do in order to get him to decamp and make him stand a chance to win his re-election. The ball is in Tinubu’s court. These are unequivocal demands without mincing words. Neither begging nor grandstanding will change anything.

You see Kwakwaso is wiser than many of you who are crying daily on SM.

What do you deduct from the message, Kwakwaso eye is on APC, why didn't he consider your beloved ADC?

I just dey laugh anytime I see your ranting

The north should account for all the security votes wasted to curb the insecurity they created.

Between insecurity and Tinubu reform, which one has negatively affected Nigerian most.

The destruction caused by Boko Haram, Bandits and herdsmen has led to crippling poverty in the north and in the entire country. The enormous amount of money budget to fight insecurity is enough to revamp our Agricultural sector with modernized equipment but how will that work when the northern foot soldiers are skipping and sacking farmers.

The north who ruined Nigeria with insecurity for 15 years shouldn't complain of Tinubu reform of 2 years

Your Cho cho cho is getting out of hand. Go and ask Odin, Asgard who did more than this in 2022 eventually bury his head in shame.

APC is a moving train. You don't stop a moving train with a finger, there's no party that can defeat APC in presidential election. Take it to the bank
