No cry, no cry, no cry. Wait till 2027 before you start crying

AMINDA:
All that show of shame of openly negotiating with bandits was bound to backfire and anger some hard-core military personnel. It screams capitulation and goes against everything they were indoctrinated with at military schools. The Nigerian Army we know will all rather perish than be seen openly negotiating with terrorists.

P.S: The FG already have an impending fiasco with the West, they had better not try to add China to the mix. It serves no purpose leaking that the Colonel Al-Makura "just returned from a course in China". China has a well-known policy of non-interference.

- Reno Omokri

Source: https://x.com/renoomokri/status/1979563518614442342?s=46[/quote]Why Reno dey fire Peter Obi up and down like rhis?

At least we see Obi container, where is your own factory.

Don't go that lane Reno, just remain in your political circle where you fit in perfectly

AMINDA:
Okay. Is it the South that is in power now or the Yorubas? The North made Tinubu president with 5.6m votes. He did not win the South. Bottomline, you cannot "handover" power to anyone. It was given to you in the first place by the North.

AMINDA:
No one is giving any ticket to anyone. If Obi cannot defeat Atiku in a primary, then he cannot defeat Tinubu in the general election. Or will he demand that Tinubu hands power over to him after demanding for the ticket in the primary? If the South unites behind Tinubu and it's enough to get him reelected, then so be it. Tinubu has already tactically disenfranchised Obi if the Sahara Report is true. Power will return to the North whether in 2027 or 2031. The only question will be what's in it for the South, especially the Southeast?

Good list...

You quoted from the exact source I have on my hands here. What position is Nigeria on that list 14 right?

Top 14 richest countries in terms of resources is not a top country?

Who's saying nonsense now?

Good night!

Penguin2:
Give the ticket to Atiku and you will unite the south behind Tinubu.

Give it to Peter Obi and you will divide the south into two and take the larger share.

The Middle Belt is an easy home for Obi especially if you put agents on ground to prevent change of results.

Then Atiku, Tambuwal and co will deliver larger chunk of the core North, and the election is won.

Now, tell me the calculation you plan to make with Atiku.

Nigeria is one of the richest countries in the world...

In terms of natural resources that is basic knowledge.

Everybody knows that. They don't have to be the richest or richer than US before we tag them as rich.



That they live below expectations and their potential is not due to the absence of available resources but due to mismanagement and vision less of their leaders.

This is simple to understand!

Infotubia9ja:
If you know how wealthy this country nigeria is you wont be saying this.
Nigeria has what it takes to shut other countries including China and america to stand still. But we invest in stupidity instead of proper education and learning.

If nigeria utilizes it full potentials when the country makes a strong notation all other countries in the world will stand still watch and listen. But we are the problem because we let people with less vision to lead us to the dept of the bottom hell.

olyrayy:
Yes. Nigeria is a very poor country. A lot of Nigerians are under the illusion that we're rich and prosperous. The government should pay for my light, electricity, school fees, fuel, etc. They have the money, but they're looting it.

Sorry to burst your bubble. But Nigeria is actually a very poor country, even if we account for the looting and all other nonsense.

To calculate someone's wealth, you use their income and expenses.

I had a look at Nigeria's budget, which is basically how much we spend. And it's so freaking low. Especially if you divide it by our population.

You can check the list of countries by budget expenditure per capita. Nigeria is right next to shithole broke countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh and co. When you think of those countries, do you think of rich countries?

Most Nigerians think that we're rich like Saudi Arabia. But we're not. We're poverty stricken.

I recently discovered just right now that Iraq earned $90 billion from oil in 2024. How much did Nigeria earn? $30 billion. Meanwhile, Iraq has to share $90 billion amongst 50 million people while Nigeria has to share for 200 million.

And I literally saw someone online lamenting about Iraq being a shithole third world country.

By the way, check out the budget for our African peers like Egypt and South Africa. Egypt's budget is 3x higher than ours.

Of course, you could say that we are rich in natural resources bla bla bla. I doubt we are as rich in resources as most Nigerians think. But even if we were, it doesn't mean shit. Potential income is not the same as income. I mean... I could as well say that if you work hard and start a business, you could be a billionaire. But you're not. You're most likely poor. Potential to be rich is not the same as being rich.

Once you understand that Nigeria is actually a poor country, many Nigerians would know where the problem starts from and stop saying asinine shit like government should pay for my light, electricity, fuel, school fees, food, and even my wedding.

Bmaster:
if government is serious,They should arrest and flush out kidnappers,arm robbers,hire killers, criminals and ritualists who were instructed by Nnamdi kanu,motivated by his desire and misguided by his broadcast,they are the Real terrorists.
Nnamdi kanu only speak words out of his passion to get Biafra,and in court,spoken words don't count only Action counts.
I may instruct you to destroy and maim someone,but it is within your human instincts and consience to check whether you will do as i instruct or not.


Modified:There is a reason we were given brains,human conscience and wisdom,it is for us to choose between what is good and what is bad.,if we fails to use them,its we those our physical body that will bear the consequences,not our thought,our instincts,our wisdom and our conscience

Brendaniel:
But has a dollar value which I presented

Brendaniel:
The are still calculated based on the crude oil prices in dollars...

Image123:
Budgets are not calculated in dollars, whatever that means. Crude oil which is a major revenue generator is benchmarked in dollars. Lord Jesus. Why send such ignorance my way, Lord?

kettykin:
Congratulations to Roxettes ceo, Kelechi Orji and the entire Abia citizenry. But this is a tree in a forest, there is much more to do ,Abia and the entire South East can save between N2trillion and N5trillion and create more than 100,000 jobs directly and indirectly of we go electric. The amount of money spent on fuel can build a new ecosystem in the south east.

SmartPolician:
Wike is not smart and so are most of the people occupying public offices in Nigeria. They are too dumb to convert criticisms to their advantage. In fact, only PO knows how to do that so well.

If I were the FCT minister, my response to PO would've been:

HE PO, you have been in government before and understand that development is not only the responsibility of the government. Religious institutions, NGOs and private players have a role in building the Nigeria of our dreams. Thank you for contributing your bit to a better FCT!

I always say that the day I get the opportunity to serve this country, Nigerians will practically worship the ground upon which I march.

hohafrank:
must you bring in tribe into anything you do?
After all Lagos comprises of different ethnic groups that make this possible.
Receive sense in Jesus name.

Bmaster:
i know it will come to this,but no matter how you twist it,lagos still remains a no man's land!


I won't be surprised if seyi Tinubu decides to cage and gag you all in that your Lagos after his father might have spent the rest of his days here on earth!

Continue bragging Rights instead of Asking deep questions,Iragbiji bloods will continue to be y'all Lords forever!

gidgiddy:
It could be the same reason people like you want a united Nigeria that has never worked, and never will work

Its all about what you people can gain from the rot called 'one Nigeria'

gidgiddy:
What did anyone gain from 'one Nigeria' except increased suffering?

derecho:
Kikikiki...we are waiting for them to also brag about the hookup industry too

Bmaster:
i think its because Lagos was the capital(in a way) of Nigeria that time.
Whatever crumbles Lagos, crumbles Nigeria as a whole, because Lagos is our collective heritage!

If they ask you that as a Yoruba man you are, can you write in one or two paragraphs what Igbos did to you personally that warrant the kind of hatred you harbor for Igbos, can you?


You are wasting your precious time and energy hating people that hold no grudge against you.


It is Igbos that ought to be showing complete disdain towards you because:


1.) They noticed our inability to live in peace and made attempt to secede for peace to reign, but you instead joined forces with Northern Nigeria backed by Britain/Egypt/Arab Nations/USSR to fight them and force them to rejoin your Nigerian union that refused to work


2.) You and majority of your people have been doing everything humanly possible to stop an Igbo person from becoming Nigeria's President.

3.) You use politics of division and treachery to corner all the goodies that comes from Nigeria's central government to your region and also mock Igbos for coming to your region after using federal politics of gangup with the North to corner national resources and infrastructures to your region (Lagos).

4.) A man from your region is President and continues to hold Nnamdi Kanu fighting for freedom and equal treatment for his people, instead of your brother to wash off his hands from Buhari's mistakes and release him to go, he continues to hold him, ask yourself if an Igbo person as President is doing this how would you and your people feel?


5.) Your tribesman who is the President has shown so much disdain and neglect to Igbos and Southeast without remorse or shame in all he does yet to people like you, it is normal



6.) In 1970 when the civil war ended, a Yoruba man, Awolowo headed the economic and financial team of the Nigerian federal government that seized every money Igbos had in Nigerian government before the civil war and only handed Igbos with proof of having an account in Nigerian banks just 20 pounds no matter how many thousands or millions they had in bank before the war broke out.


7.) Awolowo also brought the starvation policy during the civil war that led to heartbreaking starvation and hunger in Biafra during the war which led to deaths of millions of Igbo civilians, mostly children and elderly, which forced Biafra elites to beg Ojukwu to please surrender to save Igbo children from further dying of hunger.


These are just but a few of atrocities your people committed against Igbos as a whole that affected virtually every Igbo person, now tell me why you despise the Igbos so much that you always speak with bitterness even on casual topics that don't warrant such bitterness?
