PoliticsRe: 2023 Presidency: Osinbajo Group Emerges In Abuja, Lagos by VaselineCrew: 6:52pm On Nov 12, 2021
BigSarah:
Why does Osinbajo 2023 always sound like buhari 3rd term to me


Nigerians love suffering sha
I really don’t know why Nigerians love to suffer like this, it’s tragic seeing them eager to sell themselves to terrible politicians.

See how they madly followed Buhari, a former coup plotter, saying if the former dictator didn’t have a school certificate it didn’t matter. Why would it matter to them when they were ready to suffer.

Now Osinbajo that is the current VP of a bad administration should automatically become president? As though the presidency is some kingship title that is being passed down.

I’m tired men, after driving through tough roads everywhere today, I’m just tired abeg. Zombies everywhere you turn

Black man sha, is it that they banned you guys from having good roads?

Someone said there is ghetto in other countries, but compare the ghetto roads in NewYork to roads in almighty banana island.

Shame on you all that support whatever government it is that would leave roads undone.

Even if it’s to use local boys with interlocking stones, you can still build stretches of roads across a state.

God forbid bad thing. Evil dark hearted leaders and followers abound everywhere in this Nigeria.

You haven’t answered my question though.

Is it logical to elect someone that was once a coup plotter? Someone that thwarted a democracy?

What possible logical justification could you tender for committing to such an act?

Of all the 200 million Nigerians, you lot figured the best man for the job would be a former coup plotter? That is like raw stupidity.

Even if many Nigerians aren’t educated, we still have those doing wonders in the engineering, medicine... did you hear of Nigerians making drones in the U.S? You have professors, economists, business majors, app makers, brilliant sociologists...

Yet, and yet, you lot went back in time to even before some of you were conceived to bring back a gun toting coup plotter.

I am having a hard time understanding this. It just doesn’t compute in my head.

You made a point.
But it mustn't remain that way.
We cannot continue as a lawless country.

On police square to chase traffic offenders: that one has to be latter in the future.
You know heat-and -run is prevalent in Lagos even while not been chased by police.
When traffic offenders are given a chase, scores of people will be ran over and the people will blame the police for it
People don’t have to get run over if they are coordinated. For instance, they could radio in to another squad ahead to block the road so that the offenders have no where to go. They could also deploy road spikes and motorbikes to maneuver in and out of traffic.

Why must we wait till a future time before we can have police pull people over? Why? Why??

If I were president, that is like the first thing I’d do, I’d pay for so many ads on radio, tv, internet, and all sensitizing road users on what to do when getting pulled over by police as this will be relatively new for Nigerians.

Again, why must we wait in 2021, to have ordinary police pull people over, when other countries are going to space?

Bro your country is completely lawless.

Even in the small things like traffic control, there is total lawlessness allowed not to talk of bigger things.

Have you driven in Lagos? Do you see how driving laws are broken and yet have you ever seen a police squad pull people over like abroad? I’m not talking about police stopping someone at checkpoint, I’m talking about sirens on in a squad car chase a pull over. None!

This country needs real leaders, not the demons we have everywhere posing as leaders.
PoliticsRe: Top Ten Strongest Currencies In Africa At The Moment by VaselineCrew: 10:56am On Nov 10, 2021
Nothingserious:
If N150k is say equivalent of 266 USD.
If someone earning 150k in Nigeria can afford a few things with that amount, can same 266 chase same goods elsewhere?

If say N400k can pay an annual house rent, can 710 USD chase same value for an annual rent too?
Lol, so in a sense, you are actually advocating for a further slide in our currency?

Cause why stop at N580, using your analysis up there? Why don’t we crank the dollar up to about N2,000. So for 266USD, you’d have N532,000 abi?

Don’t gorget though, that you produce almost nothing, so that phone you used to buy for 30k, is now 120k, out of your N532,000.

Now what about minimum wages and currency value? A minimum wage here is N30,000. Thirty whole thousand a month? I should be so rich, but I forgot that the currency was in naira, sigh. Meanwhile, a cleaner might make 6 dollars/hour abroad, talk less of people with specialized skills.

Soon, cleaners from abroad will come back to buy all of you, lol, because maybe when dollar becomes N2k, they will just bring like 1k dollars back home which will be like 2 million naira, then you guys will be prostrating on the floor shouting “Oga Sir”.
PoliticsWith All Lagos IGR, Do We Even Have Pipebourne Water Or Borehole In Every House? by VaselineCrew(op): 10:36am On Nov 10, 2021
I keep hearing talks of IGR, no one ever focuses on what this money is used for.

Do you even have water from the government that flows to your house or apartment complex? Or are you a denizen of Lagos 2021, today, either using a borehole water supply or having to buy water in trucks? Be honest with yourselves.

Where does the money go?

It’s like how the lekki epe expressway used to be tolled, yet the roads would have dead streetlights stretching many kilometers, and the lane markings had all worn out, even till today, the lane markings remain worn or totally non existent. We then had to ask, where was all the toll money going? I mean it’s one thing to generate money, it’s another thing to spend it wisely. Things like lane markings could have been done with just one days income from the toll booths or at the max, a weeks income would have afforded for the re-painting of the lanes.

If you are a resident of Lagos, take a drive across the third mainland bridge, paying close attention to the lane markings, you’ll notice that they are all intact, and clearly visible, thereby guiding road users into observing lane discipline somewhat without any law enforcement stimulus.

Now juxtapose that with a drive across the lekki epe expressway, which until recently, was extremely well funded by road users in the form of tolls ranging from about 200-300 naira PER PASS. You’d notice that as at today, close to 90% if not more of the lane markings are non existent.

I think we should focus twice as hard on expenditure as we do on income, so we can get value.

PoliticsNigeria Political Analysis Always About Tribe, Never About Development. by VaselineCrew(op): 11:53am On Nov 05, 2021
Their supporters never discuss what a candidate will do in different sectors of the country, like security, healthcare and so on.

Rather, they write long articles about tribe, including zoning of presidency, if APC zones to this then PDP will zone to that, it is the turn of this tribe, or that tribe...

Yet we somehow expect zoning and tribe discussions to put a Nigerian on the moon, how?

I guess deep down, most Nigerians don’t really care one bit if their society is developed or whether or not they have good roads and good jobs. It is impossible to care about such things and still discuss politics without ever discussing development.

Tell me, what other society on the face of this earth will elect a former dictator as president? Excluding societies over run by terrorism. That’s like saying a society today will elect Adolf Hitler as president, it just can’t happen, but it can happen in Nigeria, because all they ever talk about is tribe.

Even in governorship election races, they rarely ever talk about development, but rather begin to form tribal clusters of opposition, based on the perceived tribal association of a party and the leanings of so called enemy tribes, i.e, APC belongs to this tribe and PDP belong to that tribe, so even if a governor does nothing, we are happy because he is associated with a party of our tribe.

Sai Nigerians!

In 2021, how many states can boast of government pipebourne water to each house? Ordinary water. Yet somehow, you Nigerians see nothing wrong with that.

No they don't, online is online not driving time. probably u were offline before the said campaign time or u went offline after at some point or after completing the number of trips u unknowingly went offline without waiting for the campaign time to complete.
Well, I did eventually get the bonus though.

It seems that at the end of the day, they updated my score to qualify for the bonus.

Since online time was the ONLY requirement left at the time(30 min before campaign expiration), and I just had about 12 more online minutes to complete according to the app to qualify for the bonus, I was super sure to stay online since that was gonna be the simplest part of completing the campaign. That’s why I was so confident that something was amiss.

It was about 4:30 then and I checked and was happy to see I only had 12 mins to complete. No trip came in within that time frame, so the campaign ran out and my stats were stuck at the initial screenshot I posted.
