₦airaland Forum

I was telling someone that Nigerians always forget.

See dem on this thread already hailing another tormentor!

Something is wrong with out way of reasoning in this country

GreyLaw:
You don't have rights as a Nigerian citizen so please keep quiet. Lol...

men, it's serious oh

we have just accepted that Buhari doesn't take questions

Men!

I have been watching Trump going through media question and answer sessions seemingly everyday, since this whole covid wahala started.

Yet our president has done only ONE question and answer session since he was elected.

How did we get here? Why did we Get here?

He just reads and does not take questions, chai, he is like a "read-only" file.

Only Outputs, no Inputs! Chai!

Can we all be made aware of this salary scale?

I really have lost all faith in this Buhari regime, but this at least seems to be something done right, right?

Please, min wage for police should be N80,000 for new recruits.

If I were IGP, I'd go as far as to setup buffets for police officers, so they come in off of patrol and grab a quick lunch and head out.

On to more critical things, can we please imbibe the culture of police patrols and police squad cars pulling people over?

Right now, most Nigerians have never been pulled over by a police squad car, they just stand at junctions collecting money.

Can all squad cars have pos like devices that are capable of running a drivers license?

Can we switch their main guns from Aks to pistols?

Is all this too much to ask?

TecM0:
Do you know why your arguments are completely flawed?

800 thousands independent registered voters stood on the line for hours to vote for Babajide Sanwo Olu and not Tinubu, they read the ballot and decided, same for Fashola and Ambode,

Saying Lagosians voted Tinubu and not Fashola Ambode and Sanwo Olu is like calling them brain dead..

And to prepare your mind for 2023 , it's the same democratic dispensation and political system that would produce people on the next ballots, it's the Politicians that would nominate and select at primaries while you have no option than to vote their options

Just as US have Trump 70s, Bidden 70s to choose from

Why did you mention age in you last sentence, when I clearly stated that age is nothing but a number. Hence, I'd take a Trump over a Buhari anyday!

As for party selections and limitations of candidates, I am fully aware of this, and that is why I am urging people to shun apc and pdp.

Didn't you read anything I wrote up there?

TecM0:



Let them keep chasing Tinubu's shadows and tail as if he holds their Destiny

Tinubu last contested any Election in 2003 exactly 17 years ago, and just like Awolowo and Abiola, as a Yoruba man he gets to be blamed for all atrocities of democratically elected Officials

Federal government soldiers were captured on camera opening fire on protesters, but just like how Awolowo was blamed for the Biafra war as a private citizen while Gowon the Commander in Chief was praised, Lekki incidence is been solely blamed on Tinubu while Buhari is been kept out of it




.

You are factually right in that Tinubu hasn't held office in a while, however, you can't deny his godfatherism in Lagos.

I think people view Tinubu as the man behind the man that sits on the government sit in Lagos at any point in time. So they bypass Local Government, and the Governor and accuse "The Godfather"!

I am not really one to stand behind rumors alone, as I myself would not want to be tried and found guilty in the court of public opinion with rumors tendered as the only evidence against me. Then again, just cause you can't see the air you breathe, doesn't mean you can't feel it, so yeah...

I will keep preaching sha, you guys should TOTALLY SHUN APC AND PDP from now on, I don't want to hear, "let's try pdp or lets try apc", haba naaaa


If you haven't suffered and smiled enough with APC and PDP and awon Tinubus, Atikus, Buharis, Orjis, Iboris, haba haba

and I don't want to hear any "Youths should be there either", as we all know that age is nothing but a number sometimes.

Can't we just have competence?

Is that too much to ask for?

Can't Nigerians ever support competent, intelligent leaders, or did they swear for us or what? It doesn't matter the curse as long as Jesus is on the throne. It's time Nigerians shun self hate, you deserve good leaders, you don't need to try some known devils every 4 years.

crys




As per Tinubu, forget asking him abut the army sef, just ask him, why are some roads in sattelite town and festac town unmotorable.

As your Governor today, why is this road here, this road right here, why is it like this?

If they say there is no money, slap them... if you can

BOUNTYDOG:
He has made it clear to even his family members that if you don't have a business in Aso rock,then you should not come wasting public funds,even though hausas are generally known to feed the battalions if one of dem is blessed
His yearly budget I'm sure will not be ridculous.
Besides Jonathan started it in some FG parastatals already by cuttng down on their running costs.now in Unilag Bursar sef go to buy himself his chair,computer and AC as there are no excess to loot,so their eye s on the little the contractors used to get.
No be small tin o
Though he go tough small as our wide mouths will close a bit

Hahahaha

Oh my days, bro how far?

Tell me another president on planet Earth that left their country for 2 good months, when no be say dem pursue am.

erasokafor:
Forget politricks. Wen they ascend there u will see the real them. Afterall jonathan had no shoes.just relax.I'm just observing

You got it right bro.

Dem know say d guy na former dictator, but vote am because of Milo, sigh, Naija!!!!!!!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hijodedios:
Am gonna save this picture,after 4 years am gonna repost it here and then it will be the turn of nairalanders to judge.make we dey wait for the great difference.time will tell.

No need to repost bro, the thread can always be ressurected

Juzzybabe:
Only after may 28 will we know if he actually drank that tea or just used it to pose.

We now know bro!

Freelancer007:
In your shallow thinking, you will prefer to be led by a spendthrift President who spends 1.3 billion naira monthly on feeding allowance. It is the likes of you who prefer to remain slaves to their elected leaders in their own country, whereas the reverse should be the case.

Buharism means leading by example and cutting down on wastefulness. That is what Baba just displayed.

Hahaha, leading by example?

A president that spent tax money lounging in London for 2 months?

Is that the one that cut wastefulness?

Chai, it's so easy to deceive Nigerians sha.

Jimiyke:
Eeehn! Imagine!!!

Can u see what I saw inside that white plate?!

Presidential tea break with N20 sachet Milo?!

Thank God ooooi!

No more budget of 1.2 billion for presidential meal.

#CuttingCostModeActivated

How far with the cost cutting

Shebi is N20 Milo and N100 car Bihari is using now?

ovieigho:
most gullible people on earth are found on naira land

Not just nairaland, but Nigeria it seems.

Tomorrow if MMM comes back, same Nigerians will still join.

Don't forget those dancing for Tinubu/Atiku 2023 and collecting 500 naira garri and palm oil to last dem 4 years

JoshZionist:
Who is here in 2020?

brodaaa am heeaahh oooo

Chai, the way they can deceive Nigerians eh

So you voted him because of Milo

Adakintroy:
Am not in support of killing anyone.

But I hardly judge reactions. I judge action. This youths are acting like children. They want to see what will happen next. It's more of youthfull exuberance.. Arrogance not wisdom. How many times has the state governor gone to meet with them.?

Now they are burning police stations and freeing criminals. Is that the way to go about things.do you want to see the system collaspe first.

Is this still about ending sars. Or we are talking something else.

Yes, you kinda are in support of the killings, if not, why are you writing these long justifications?

I guess you don't know of other ways to disperse a crowd.

yungmill:
Very unintelligent, how did you come up with your conclusion? You said they should be severly dealt with! Dont they have universal human right even if lets say hypothetically they are wrong? Yeah we are not a banana republic indeed! Dimwit!

extremely dimwitted, I tell you!

Kingdemu:
Govt declared curfew and you said you won't comply, what do you expect?

We are just hypocrites!

Would you permit recalcitrance in your own house? The answer is No!

But you want Government to permit anarchy, right?

Check yourself!

The problem is you not Government!

Say this to my face, I will slap the daylights out of you, fvcking baaaastard

So if I run traffic light, instant death? If I refuse curfew, instant death?

baaaastard

Kingdemu:
Govt declared curfew and you said you won't comply, what do you expect?

We are just hypocrites!

Would you permit recalcitrance in your own house? The answer is No!

But you want Government to permit anarchy, right?

Check yourself!

The problem is you not Government!

So not complying with curfew means instant death?

Gosh, where do some of these stooopid people come from and why do I share a country with them?

mrsteel:
They didn't make anything worse!
The protesters are playing into their hands!
The govt has declared 24 hours curfew, protesters should go home & regroup after 24 hours! U can't disobey govt orders & expect them not to take action. Even in USA govt will resist! They should adhere to d curfew by going home & regroup after it has elapsed.

Please and please, in the U.S.A, curfew breakers don't get murdered, they get arrested.

If hear anybody in my vicinity canvassing for any PDP or APC after all this, I will slap the stupidity away from them, I'm telling you.

What nonsense!

...wrong with you, mtcheew

Something must be really, really wrong with you

Now military is shooting protesters at Lekki Toll Gate. Even if I don't support blocking roads, I will never support shooting with live bullets.

You guys and your forgetfulness, that's how I will bring MMM again and youths wills till join, sigh

If I hear anything PDP or APC after this...


HAVE SOME FVVVCKING SELF RESPECT

Ishilove:
True freedom, not made in China comes at a sometimes steep price. I'm stuck in traffic too as I type this, inhaling noxious fumes, but I recognise these times are historical and we must endure for the sake of posterity.

You must endure?

You endure because of God's grace in the health that he gave you, others are not as fortunate, how do they endure?

Or maybe you never even thought about them with your hale and hearty self.

MLTR:
If there are no inconvenieneces then its business as usual, if its business as usual how will the govt take us serious.
These protest are orchestrated by lenied & exposed Nigerians, certainly they know the inconveniences people might go through, buh its unavoidable cos every gud demand comes with its own price.
when the govt locked everyone in, people had flight scheduled, medical appointment, fixed event .... why did poco not open a thread to nag, whats going on now is not even up to that and some of you can't show understanding cos the inconveniences is not coming from the govt ..lol! cumma stop us.

Even with the lockdown, patients could still go to the hospital

Anyways, people always talk like you when situations don't affect them personally.

pocohantas:
You don’t know why I went out or why everyone else is out. The doctors treating them and other Nigerians have to get to work. The food they are eating, is being prepared by various eateries that have to get to work. The water they drink, a water factory is open to produce it!! The money used is being withdrawn at banks or transferred via switches. Majority of the funds sponsoring this protest came from hardworking Nigerians- home and abroad!! All these people are not STAYING AT HOME!!! We are also working for ourselves, them and our loved ones too!!!

If you have any clue on the situation on ground, you will know they go ahead to block alternative routes.

Do you know the kind of money the world lost during the lockdown? Why do you think countries had to open up despite impending risk?

No one is saying they are not appreciated, simply give commuters a little way to move about. That is all. Yet you guys come armed with insults, emotional blackmails and whataboutism.

If anyone is being thick, it is you and your kind that have refused to reason.

They are being extremely thick, don't mind them.

It's almost like they think cars are the government and no matter your emergency in life, you deserve to be stuck somewhere.

mimilogistics:
If they are not carrying arms and not violent with their protest, they have not broken any law, they are only exercising their right to freedom of protest.

and what about people that want to exercise their right to freedom of movement?

Kelvinhunta:
I understand your point but u should understand that blocking everywhere is part of the plan that will make the government accent to your demands. If it's about matching by the side of the road for one year then they won't react. It's just for everyone to adjust. Few more weeks won't kill us. We stayed at home for months because of ordinary covid that's not even in Nigeria. What good did this covid bring to Nigerians but this protest will bring a lot of changes in our system of governance

You guys may have already killed some sick people in traffic, but you may never know.

You think everyone is like you, hail and hearty... yet some people are getting blood transfusion now as we speak.

Even during the lockdown, the sick could still go out, showing police their hospital report or note/call from their doctor, yet the so called loving masses won't allow them movement.

As I said before, they can achieve the same aim by only blocking half the lanes, but no, wickedness would not allow them. Everyone must suffer according to these protesters.

Lukay99:
Rising up against oppression by oppressing (blocking of highway) the fellow citizens? How are you different from the leaders you all are protesting against?

Don't mind all these wicked souls. There are government buildings all over, senate house, aso rock, police headquarters, police stations, government houses, LG houses...

But all they want to do is harass their fellow citizens suffering the same fate as they are.
