My friend we all carry two passports, Nigeria and the USA even before those USA immigration.

Please, I criss-cross US and other jurisdictions. There is no airport you produce 2 different passports to immigration. So, tell that tale to your novice followers.

You don't renounce your citizen when you acquire a US citizen. You only pledge allegiance to the US.

Did you read what you quoted?

tinsel:
What of Obiano, orji Kalu, Chimaraoke etc? They were all born there?

If you did not challenge it in court, your loss. If Diri did not challenge the deputy to APC deputy governorship, he would not be governor.

I am not a lawyer ooo! However, I think Hamzat is a GONER. Saraki did not acquire his British Citizenship, but Hamzat renounced hi Nigerian Citizenship.

See oath for US citizenship:

Candidlady:
It won't

Y'all just want this government to fail

It will settle at N1500. Not a matter of wanting anyone wanting the govt to fail, it has already failed. The two policies are deadly to even best performing economies.

EyeCumInPiece:
This ass-licking from O'mockery lately, is getting out of hand.

He wants to return home. DSS is waiting for him at MMIA, he has a lot of questions to provide answers to.

Tinubu may abdicate office by the time the people start protesting. The srilanka experience may be a child's play.

So, what is the difference between this and Emefiele approach. This one one step forward, five backward.

If your wife go visit another man for him hotel room at 6.30 pm, would you be here writing rubbish?

The man should be charged for adultery under Sharia law. They need to amputate his JT.

Pls do we have a president?

This one is worse than clueless ooo.

This one is confused and bewildered abrg.

Yet no evidence to prove the allegations?

DSS started harassing Meffy since October 2022, 8 months later they are yet to provide a single evidence. Only media noise...

Abeg, make una shift jare!

fayomim:
That is if the newly elected allows such to happen. You are in Nigeria remember.....just move on and face your family if you have one

May I know why you are bleating?

The trend now by a new president is to retire all service chiefs. Buhari did it immediately he came on board, now Tinubu has replicated it.

This means that the newly appointed officers know that they will retire with Tinubu.

This is a given FACT!

helinues:
Walahi , the day they were sharing free shame, some people slept of.

Una get ideas and you no fit use that idea to eradicate the UGM that have been ravaging your region for years now.

To even say those rag tag are illiterates locking your likes up every Monday yet you still want to come online that you have idea about things.

Chai, chei, choi

Igbo this, Igbo that. Is that is all you can recourse to, ethnic chauvinism?

Discuss the topic, you are begging the issue. Abeg, shift ketvpeople with stuff upstairs comment.

Next is to call mod because you are bereft of ideas and counter opinions.

Ofunaofu:
helinues, I expected you to counter the points raised by the op with superior points not this lame comment you just made

You can do better than this, can't you?

Helinues knows he has no counter points. He has seen the hollowness of supposed Tinubu's achievements. All na empty barrels, without substance.
Shakespeare calls it "A tale told by an idiot ... full of sounds and fury, but signifies nothing".

Flets:
1. Fuel subsidy is removed and you will buy fuel for 500 to 900naira per liter (depending on the exchange rate). The savings will be looted like that of kerosene and diesel. There will be no commensurate succor/ palliative for your suffering. Instead of going after the subsidy thieves and stopping the smuggling across boarders, they have transferred the responsibility to the helpless Nigerian people.

2. Naira has been devalued (though they call it floating). The FG has handed over the exchange to the market forces where speculators and banks are king. Naira continues to fall in the I/E and parallel market. Anybody who tells you Naira will appreciate is a joker, for a corrupt country like ours, the banks and speculators are the new cabal and will drive the rates how they deem fit. Don’t believe…. Just observe. What most don’t get now is that CBN now has no obligation to provide FX at a particular rate to the market, a such the new FG players can access FX from CBN without noise.

3. FG funding for tertiary education has been removed. Students will pay upwards of 400K tuition fee starting next session. A lot of students will drop out and cannot complete their education anymore. The so-called student loan will be almost impossible for an average student without connection to access. Guess what happens to the savings from this funding…. To b looted by the same people who have impoverished the nation.

4. All the FG has done so far is abandon almost all responsibilities it has over the people through the bills being signed since May 29. All Tinubu has done is to make available funds to be shared by him and his goons at the expense of the people. Not a single bill or action aimed at ameliorating the suffering of the already downcast Nigerian people rather adding to the pain in the guise of elitist policies

5. Guess what…. Same old political criminals are back in power, Gbaja, Akume, Asari Dokubo etc and you expect any real change apart from increased suffering?. How do you expect Tinubu to pay back the these same criminals who supported him into power?

Tell them ooo!

Christistruth03:
Are you saying that the entire results of the SE should be cancelled

PEPT will re-tabulate the result. Tinubu will only get 6m. However, let's face the topic. Not election results

Do not derail the thread, because that is you guy's stock in trade, when your president is exposed

Arrest before investigation. So, Emefiele wife and family will leave 18 bags of money for DSS to come and see? Even Seun's wife was smart enough to clean his house of weeds.

Pls tell us something new. This old scope has lost relevance!

Tinubu is doing great

Christistruth03:
Fake News

You cannot ask for an exam to be cancelled just because you failed it

Would WEAC release your result after you got caught in exam malpractice?

Dafresh:
Can you employ someone in your company that will be going for medical checkup every 3 weeks

Do you mind those defending defenceless actions?

Ttalk:
@ OP kindly tell us what your farther has achieved since he birthed you.

I wonder why mod has allowed you to run amok with insulting post on the President of Federal Republic of Nigeria.

What does a government need to succeed if not a constructive criticism from opposition? But when you go about insulting, hating and abusing the government in power for no reason, then you becomes enemy of the state, a terrorist that should be treated as one

@bolded- See painment ooo!
Please, where did I insult anyone? If any, you are the one calling my father names here!

This is a simple critique. Disprove my points paragraph by paragraph and stop calling mod. This is an educative forum.

Tell me what I do not know. Not calling on mod, for what offense

I am waiting for you ... I know

So, someone asked me what my governor has achieved in the last 3 weeks as compared to Tinubu's achievement. So, I started to think and here is my reply.

My state is Delta, which is PDP controlled. In my state, we do not consider appointments as achievements, we do not applaud sacking old hands and replacing them as achievement. We only applaud actions that positively impact people's lives, future and wellbeing. Those applauding signing of Bill's and making new appointments are only celebrating mediocrity.

So, let us take a critical look at what Tinubu, has he achieved in 3 weeks that his followers are celebrating?

Before I proceed, I would ask NL mod to read my posts and not apply bias banning button as usual for topics against Tinubu

Let's start with student loans act. I call it
"Student loan without hope" because nobody is qualified to access the loan as passed.
Which family still earns less than N500k in Nigeria and also pays tax to be able to get TCC? None, because with such salary, you do not pay tax? So, nothing changed as no Nigerian can access the loan. I know you may not comprehend. Go and study the act, only those whose family income are below N500k are eligible. For such family to exist, the father and mother would each earn about N21k per month. That is below minimum wage and such peope do not pay taxes.

Second is floating Naira ... which country do you know that floats her currency? Travel, you people won't. No country has dollar market as we do in Nigeria. Brazil, Russia, India, China and SA (BRICS) are looking to hold their currencies against the $, we are here praising the one swallowing IMF pills, hook, line and stinkers, plus the fisherman's boot. The naira will keep on weakening because we are an import dependent nation and our balance of trade is permanently negative. Meaning, we spend more $$ than we earn. Even our president that ought to get treatment in Aso Rock clinic is going to boost France economy with his medical tourism , probably every 3 weeks interval.

Petrol subsidy removal? Hahaha! You guys knows nothing about economics. I know you are buying petrol now at N510, that is old stock now. Wait when the next imported stock comes, you will pay N800. That is in a couple of months from now. The knee-jerk decisions were to excite you, but you know what, your suffering just began. A well planned approach would have ensure atleast 50% local production before removal of subsidy. As it stand, with $$ at N760, if you buy petrol next two months at N510, just know Tinubu paid subsidy for it

Sacking CBN governor, so? Has that helped your Naira that has now depreciated by 50%?
Was that not expected? The man was there from Jonathan to Buhari to Tinubu. Has he not tried? Let's try other people, so nothing new here. Afteral, all Buhari's ministers have also left office.

You people fell upon one another that stock market was boosted. How? Because you gained 10% in Naira terms and lose 50% in $$ terms? Ask Dangote and Bua how much they lost in $$ terms, about $10billion. When we are singing praises, we should think them through. Ask, what changed?

Some even praised the list if 43 items not qualified for forex as achievement. How? Those have always been there under Emefiele now. I was hoping that Tinubu would expand it to include artificial, non-value adding items like medical tourism, estacodes, foreign legal and administrative payments, etc. Duh, he knows those will affect him and his entourage.

Lastly, you do not know that with the signed student loan, comes tuition fees, that was free before Tinubu? O! You never read that the loan is to help you pay tuition? You borrow if ever you qualify, you pay tuition, you graduate, then no job. You cannot payback. Tinubu will throw you, your guarantors into jail.

So, my friends, lets stop applauding appoinments, signing of bills. Buhari signed more bills than GEJ and Yardua put together. Where did it take us? These are signs of celebration of mediocrity.

So far, Tinubu has achieved absolutely NOTHING!!!

OGIBRA:
@OP, Anything to make you wail as usual is highly welcome.Medical traveling or tourism is truly not good and bad, but criticize constructively...

my question is WHAT HAS YOUR STATE GOVERNOR,THAT HAS NOT TRAVEL, DONE IN THAT 3 WEEKS..maybe we should start from there...
campaign is over, tym for GOVERNANCE AND FREE YOUR MIND FROM HATRED...

Sorry, I did not read your question until now.

In my state, we do not consider appointments as achievements, we do not applaud sacking old hands and replacing them as achievement.
These are signs of mediocrity.

So, let look at Tinubu, what has he achieved?

Student loan without hope? Which family still earns less than N500k in Nigeria and pays tax to be able to get TCC? None, because with such salary, you do not pay tax? So, nothing changed as no Nigerian can access the loan. I know you may not comprehend. Go and study the act, only those whose family income are below N500k are eligible. For such family to exist, the father and mother would each earn about N2k per month. That is below minimum wage and such peope do not pay taxes.

Second is floating Naira ... which country do you know that floats her currency? Travel, you people won't. No country has dollar market as we do world over. Brazil, Russia, India, China and SA (BRICS) are looking to hold their currencies against the $, you are praising the one swallowing IMF pills, hook, line and stinkers, plus the fisgerman's boot.

Petrol subsidy removal? Hahaha! You guys knows nothing about economics. I know you are buying petrol now at N510, that is old stock. Wait when the next imported stock comes, you will pay N800. That is in a couple of months from now. The knee-jerk decisions were to excite you, but you know what, your suffering just began.

Lastly, you do not know that with the purported student loan, comes tuition fees, that is free before Tinubu. O! You never read that the loan is to help you pay tuition? You borrow if ever you qualify, you pay tuition, you graduate, then no job. You cannot payback. Tinubu will throw you, your guarantors into jail.


So, my friend stop applauding mediocrity. Tinubu has achieved absolutely NOTHING!!!

helinues:
Wailers should do something meaningful with their time and life instead of this daily gnashing of teeth.

Life is too beautiful than to be wallowing on election loss

Who is wailing abeg? Your president is sick and require 3 weekly medical trips, if this continues in his absence the country will be rudderless for estimated 6 months in a year.
If this is how he will be ajalaing, he should learn to hand over to his VP. We do not want the Yardua episode in 2023. No time to check time abeg.

Within 3 weeks of taking office Tinubu is jetting out to France for medical. Nigerians remembered how he jetted out after elections. Came back and jetted out about a month to inauguration. In barely 20 days, he is already travelling again.

One is therefore quick to ask, is this how he will be wasting our scarce foreign resources on medical tourism bi-weekly? This is June 18, he will return in another 3 weeks, that would be about July 10. Three weeks after would be July 31.
On each of these trips, he would be traveling with a retinue of people that add no value to Nigeria other than waste.

Since we want to conserve $, why do we not ban medical tourism? We would applaud him for that. Afterall Aisha told us that the Aso Rock clinic is now world class.
