Shut up, hypocr!te

You disagree with him because your tribesman is now in power, but agreed with him when Jonathan was there.

Bloody hypocr!tes! There's nothing each tribe has in common with the other, and there's no other country anywhere in the world with such degree of anomaly.

And the country will never make any headway existing with that anomaly

Christistruth02:
Sowore plays the Tribal Card too much

SmartPolician:
America doesn't want immigrants in their country anymore, but Nigerians don't understand.

Massive population comes with overwhelming challenges for working societies. America is not like Nigeria where Buhari announced that any idiot is free to come into, whether they have visas or not.

donleo92:
Since I became grown up I stopped playing the victim card. Since we are Nigerians anything that other Nigerians would enjoy, I must enjoy am..

Bleep that victim mentality

This is what a whole country is occupied with presently. In this present dispensation

I spit on the idiots that created this entity out of greed and wickedness
A country that should never had been in the first place

Land grabbing, terrorism, wars, etc. anywhere all have economic undertone.

It is mostly about the natural resources and it has been like this from the days of Adam.

Man wants are insatiable.

Useless northern elites.

Useless to their own people.
Useless to the nation.
Useless in all ramifications

Everybody knows that at the minimum Nigeria should be restructured, if not broken up.

Now those in the North are saying the samething that Nigeria should be broken up

29. The many Igbo deaths caused by boko haram(which of course has the full backing of the northern elites).

And the list goes on. By the time you read this more would have died. The situation is getting out of hand and the Nigerian government has shown that it lacks the will and the capability to protect the life and property of Igbos in Nigeria.

The killings must stop. If you are Igbo and you are still playing the ostrich, it could be you tomorrow, me, or your loved ones.

The man who always put himself out there as a saint.

ObJ is the foundation of the problem we are facing today.

A very greed and selfish man. No one must outshine him ,he always has problem with anything good coming from other people.

happney65:
Exactly. It is Niger Delta Oil wey wè still dey spend they make us dey together. If it finishes today,that is the end.

As Nature would have it, if it were the North, SE or the SW that has oil in laege deposits like the ND,I'm sure wè wont be having what wè have right now.

But as Nature would have it, None of the Major ethnic group is in charge of it. Most especially if it were the North that has Oil,the country would have gone a long time ago.. Those ones that cant accept 1/3 of what they dish out

AndroBlaze:
When will the south stand up for itself?? Is it when there is another Buhari in power?

Our small and short sighted leaders should insist on nothing less than 50% on derivation. States are equal yet the North has 19 states and almost 60% of the House of reps seats shey?

We should not agree. The formula at worst should be:
50% derivation- 30% equality-20% population.

happney65:
I dont get this at all. There is almost little or no difference in the current one and Oyedele is saying he has no objection to the Nonesense the Govornors are bringing forward.

Existing VAT sharing formular:
1. Derivation 20%
2. Equality 50%
3. Population 30%

The Tinubu proposed tax reforms formular:
1. Derivation 60%
2. Equality 20%
3. Population 20%

Governors' Forum Proposal:
1. Derivation 30%
2. Equality 50%
3. Population 20%

So tell me if this is what they want to settle for, isnt it Jargons?

P.S. I'm not a Fan of Tinubu,but I support his proposal for the VAT. But if his proposal doesnt go through,I'm sorry nothing good will come out of his administration.

Because if this cant be done by a Southerner. Tell me what can he do?

Resource control
Restructuring the federation
Etc

If he cant do ordinary VAT to favour the areas that bring more,how will he do other stuffs that are tougher than VAT?

Anyways we wait and see before I start calling him a Coward

RealityOfReason:
This change is like no change at all. I don't see equity in the so called equitable proposal. If we can't decentralize ordinary VAT, what's the future of true federalism in this country? Apparently, the country is not real for real change

UltraSolid:
There are levels to the whole power game in Nigeria. GEJ, as President, could never respond like this to born-to-rule Northern leaders who feel the rest of us are here to serve them. Obi the coward will run a spineless Presidency overrun by Northern impunity.

Developments like this show the most qualified Southerner, on all levels, is President of Nigeria currently. Only Tinubu, of all Southerners, can tell a Northern Governor he is incompetent, failed and needs to mind the business he was voted to oversee as Governor.

epainos:
Since the last week of last year, these mobile operators have been providing poor service, including serious Internet connectivity issues. I suppose it is their way of demonstrating to the government that they are serious about this increase.

Personally, I am not surprised because the moment the government removes subsidies in many areas (which we know we cannot afford again), we will undoubtedly begin paying the debts of those who have passed away. Lol. Who the heck do you expect to pay back all the debts?

Plus government is still looting steadily. Lol. It then places an extremely heavy burden on Nigerians. Of course, this is how it will be for a long time. The debts we accumulated from the early 1980s, when the military took over Nigeria, until now are enough to weigh us down. However, continuous looting is suicidal.

Nigeria's situation is unlikely to improve anytime soon. Yes, read my words again. Nigeria will not improve for many people; however, only a few will begin to grow. Two groups of people will become wealthy: politicians and anyone involved in business innovation, data, or oil-related activities.

Yes, credit facilities will become available soon, and they will be a trap for the majority of Nigerians. Most people borrow from paid apps and never pay back, as is customary in Nigeria. Lol. By the time the government introduces credit options, over 95% of Nigerians will be trapped and become slaves in their own country.

As I always advise, run and buy about 6 plots of land now in any location very close to development (maximum of 10 years, the area should be populated...not inside any bush), fence it in, install a borehole, build a small bungalow without furnishings (even a security house attached to the wall is acceptable), and begin growing your food there. Grow more than 80% of your food to save money and live longer.

Nigeria is not going to improve for many people anytime soon, but believe me, those involved in data, oil, and artificial intelligence will enjoy it.


Good luck to you all.

We now have a southern president who got balls.

Some northerners can continue with their noise making. It won't change a thing

When sowore dey America can he see police on the road and tell them to leave the road? if something happens on that road it's the same sowore that will be asking where is the police?

kettykin:
The APC-led government hasn’t just killed Nigeria—it has gutted its soul, stripped it of any remaining moral fiber, and left it as a husk of corruption and lawlessness. Under this disastrous leadership, Nigeria has descended into a cesspool where kidnapping, ransom-taking, and ritual killings have become industries of their own, thriving in the vacuum of accountability.

The truth is stark: Nigeria, once the giant of Africa, is now barely clinging to relevance, ranked as the 5th largest economy on the continent.

Ironically, this is exactly where Lagos was in 2014 before it became the poster child for Tinubu-style governance—hollow development, rampant exploitation, and unchecked decay.


The APC has destroyed the very foundation of the nation, leaving a legacy of misery, bloodshed, and moral bankruptcy. Nigeria is a tale of what happens when power is placed in the hands of vultures.

yarimo:
and Abia state is not Igbo oo🤣🤣🤣

MadamVanessa:


I'm not saying that the Ikwerre people are Igbo, but I find it surprising that they bear Igbo native names. Though the Ikwerre people have constantly said that they're not igbo and disassociated themselves from the Igbo, I believe it's important for the Igbos to acknowledge and respect their wishes.

However, what the Ikwerre people seems not to know is that, to the northerners, they will still be perceived as Igbo. I recall my experience traveling to Kaduna, were I realized that, in the eyes of northerners, people from the South South are often lumped together as Igbo, regardless of their actual ethnicity be it Ijaw, Efik, Ibibio, Urhobo etc. And our names have no connection to Igbo names, yet they still perceived us as Igbo people, talk more of the Ikwerre that answers Igbo names. Make una de jonz sha.

Jagaban still remains Nigeria’s best president ever

He understands the issues and he is taking the right steps

I just wished the governors were half as responsible and visionary

I usually do not make posts on nairaland politics section but I have to address this charade of Senator Ndume as regards undermining the the contributions of southeast in Nigeria. I’m going to do this with Figures vis-à-vis the figures come north to show that northerners are conning people into staying in Nigeria, which is obviously failing.

Oil revenue and other
In 2017, the NBS released oil revenue figures of all Nigerian oil producing states which totals 32billion USD, assuming that we share the sentiment of subtly dissociating igbos in southsouth from their counterparts in Southeast, IMO and Abia combined accounted for 1.7% of this revenue, 1.7% of 32billion is 544million USD. It means that Imo and Abia brought 544million USD to Nigeria in 2017.

In this same year, southeast states received a total federal allocation of 152.9billion which is 459.1million USD using 333per dollar rate as it was obtainable in 2017.

Imo and Abia alone made 544million USD, this figure indicates that south east actually generated their own federal allocation. This cannot be said about the north’s humongous allocation, they feed from other south southern states


This will help create a picture to help you see who steals from who? Southeast earned every allocation they get, north steals from southsouth.
This is clearly seen as the total revenue generated in 2017, 65% of this was from oil while a substantial remaining Came from Lagos ports and business which igbos also contributed a large stake in terms of Importations of goods and federal taxes. Northerners don’t do importation a lot and they don’t have business paying taxes a lot.

We can hardly see the contribution of the northern states and their people here vis-à-vis the amount they get in term of allocations.


I am not an Igbo guy but it’s totally irrational to think that north is not the parasite here. They never earn whatever they get in Nigeria.

As matter of fact, aside Lagos and maybe ogun state and the oil producing states, other states include all 19northern states are parasites. None of them earn whatever they get.

If zik was wise and had foresight, he would have opposed the removal of secession, but he is blind to the future, he want to be premier in the south west.
