As long as it's my tribe man that's the president, everything is going well mentality.... A lot of laptop boys will attack obj and leave the message.... Otti is working and not holding past government as excuse....

Stop reasoning inappropriately. Where is Otti getting the money that he is spending? Someone that you so much hate is receiving the stick for your Otti's success.

Return subsidy and bring back multiple exchange rates and you will see Otti become a mediocre. Otti knows this and that's why he's a staunch supporter of PBAT.

Tinubu has decided to take the stick to make governance easy for all the tiers of government.

Was OBJ not in government as military head of state? Was he not president for eight years? Did he tackle the subsidy corruption? Did he bring the refineries back? Where we not experiencing fuel scarcity under him?

VOsimhen144:
Nigeria always having large numbers in negative things in the world 🌍

Poverty ✅
Insecurity ✅
Poor electricity ✅
Children out of school ✅
Poor education ✅
Poor health care ✅
Bad roads ✅
Unemployment ✅

Everything is absolutely poor. This is really bad. Druggie in aso rock said if he fails to give us electricity that we should vote him out and some fuuls are still supporting his re-election

You are not talking about the genesis.
Who unbundled NEPA?
Who privatized the power sector?
Who invested a whooping $16 billion in power sector without results?
In the years of oil boom when money was no issue what did the leaders do?

Basicend:
Absolute truth. That is a former president speaking. He has handled same capacity before.

The issue in my opinion is that the man is not mentally and physically fit. It's very clear.

Coupled with the fact that those around him are not willing to let him know the true state of the country.

He single handedly turned Nigeria to the country with the nos of poorest people on earth and even have the guts to want to further tax them to death.

I expect his online image launders here with their 30k stipend to start dragging OBJ. Pa OBJ that gave Nigeria honour among the nations.

We have tried austerity measures.
We have tried structural adjustment program.
We have tried sureP.
We have tried IMF conditionalities.

How far did they take us up till 2023?
The reason is simple. We were trying to mend the walls of a building with poor foundation. When we mend it gives us temporary succour but after sometime the cracks comes back again. Sometimes worse. Everyone was avoiding the pain of relaying the foundation of the building which would result to everyone no having a roof over their head. Any father that tries this will be called a wicked father.

BigkokoRep:
Lies!

Mike Igini former INEC Akwa Ibom REC & National commissioner blew the whistle that Tinubu and his kinsmen in INEC already sewed uniform for non NYSC personnel, carefully hand picked from SW APC

Lies and lies. This wasn't what Mike Igini said. Quote him correctly or forever remain shut.

Ofunaofu:
The Tinubu regime has totally lost it all.

Imagine!

A wobbling presidential re-election campaign with no direction, armed with its MADness Agenda after the failed Renewed Hope Agenda, is busy responding to what Peter Obi said or didn’t say

1. Is Obi not a presidential candidate?
2. What was the intention of his statement on entirely family affair?
3. It's good for Obi and his team to reply statements made by Tinubu but not good for Tinubu to reply statements made by Obi.
4. When Obi was governor of Anambra State were diasporas not remitting money?
5. What is his pain in diaspora remittance now?
6. Obi in 2023 and now has been soliciting for financial support from diasporas. This is approved by him abi?
7. The bulk of ipob financing came from diaspora. Why didn't Obi tell them then to stop in order to stop the crisis in the south
east?
8. Elections are less than 90 days but Obi is not active locally. All that he's doing is to move from country to country gallivanting.
9. Why is he avoiding coming home to tell us his manifesto and how he intends to achieve them?
10. Anytime he handles microphone he demarkets himself. Is this not lack of capacity?

Hemanwel:
Almost all the media house CEOs are politicians.

Is it John Momoh of Channels TV?

Is it the late High Chief Raymond Dokpesi of AIT?

Abeg, who owns TVC again?

Guardian Newspaper is owned by the Ibru family.

I can continue.

We want to state it clearly so that everyone will know why Arise TV is highly partisan. Their opinion is no longer a journalistic opinion but partisan opinion. They must be carefull though so that what happened to AIT will not happen to them. When a station is highly partisan and the party that they support is out of power for a long time then it affects them. Compare the resilience of Channels TV and downward spiral of AIT.

Gotocourt:
Master plotter strategist is a shuffler .

The pressure is real.


Emperor Wike has visited Governor Fubara three times in one week . God Abeg, the empire is collapsing.

This is the only organized political party ready for the election. What are the others doing? One is in Manchester making irrelevant chochocho rather than come home and prepare for election. After the election then they will cry rigging and when you ask them for evidence they will say no evidence. We don't have opposition.

Guyman02:
Very good development for FCT but why always tag South East people by mentioning Alex Otti as if they are the only people that can have contrary opinions on issues.

They condemn everything but praise theirs to high heavens. Core obedients will never say that Tinubu has done anything good but Otti is the best governor since the independence of Nigeria. Obi has all solutions to Nigeria's problems. Nnamdi is the Messiah sent from heaven.

Peradventure an Igbo man says anything positive about Tinubu then he's efulefu, sabo, etc.

franchasng:
This is just the beginning, let Nigerians lose guard and allow Tinubu rig himself into office for the second term, una go experience bad leadership on a whole new level. Crime will increase. Ethnic division and tension will rise to a scary level comparable to what happened before Rwandan genocide.....hunger, economic hardship plus government brutality will become a daily reality for Nigerians.


Tinubu's second term as President will push Nigeria closer to becoming the next Sudan and Somalia

Fuel discount is not for the east. Dey no want Tinubu. Dey no want his gifts.

divine010:
you want me to stop mocking the Most insensitivity leader ever in our democratic history

Did Tinubu wife not advise Nigerians grduate to sel kulikuli, fry akara or roast corn

A president thataddress family that lost loved ones and start with i don't have more than 10mins here don't deserve Any respect

Then continue mocking. It's a seed. There will be harvest time.

divine010:
So kwankwaso is as old as 70yrs ....Tinubu no use 10yrs senior this man yet he looks like his grandpa

hand dey shake leg dey shake baba wey no well dey shout emilokan 🤣

Stop mocking. Life is deep. There are people at 60 healthier than people at 45.

greatseed:
This is one of the attributes I like about the president. A jolly good fellow. Doesn't act or do things like a do or die affair. Hbd to kwankwaso

You are very correct. That's why he has large pool of friends unlike the other......

Godownsit:
If he is reacting to the structural economy, he should have focus in killing the endemic corruption in the oil sector rather than transferring their inadequacies to the citizens. Our problem is never the subsidy itself but the embedded corruption that each government have refused to tackle head-on.
You don't put citizens to untold hardship because you wished to dance unpopular reform. The Tinubu reforms are anti people and had plucked the country to world poverty capital.
Let us call a spade by its name and stop calling it a spoon. Yes, it looks like but they serve different purposes.

Tell me what action that is higher in dealing with corruption in this country than the destruction of hills of corruption in subsidy scam and fx arbitrage? If you know how many wealthy people that have been hit by these actions then you will thank God that PBAT came at this time. That's why many presidents avoided these.

MemphitzDgreat1:
"Due to high cost of living, Londoners will receive 15 pounds 45 pence per hour to reflect the current economic realities" - Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London).

Meanwhile in Nigeria, useless Tinubu says he understands the pains Nigerians are going through but there is no other way out of the sufferings. Yet, he and other politicians are spending billions to campaign for re-election, in addition to travelling abroad for holidays. May Nigerians not remain stupid. Amen

See your warped comparison. London is reacting to effects of negative actions on the global economy. Tinubu is reacting to the combined effects of decades of economic structural defects and negative actions on the global economy.

As an expert would you use the same prescriptions? The sicknesses are different. This is why people like you don't understand what Tinubu is doing.

codedguy1:
It was obvious when I saw the headline that it was a lie.

It would be hard for any reasonable person to believe that Obi will say such a thing. See them above forcing the narrative even when the originator has come out to clarify

Only those that have abandoned their brains will believe such and start parroting it all over the place because their principal has nothing to offer.

All of them waiting for Obi to say something and twist it instead of telling Nigerians why they should reelect their druggie.

Go and listen to the video. Advise Obi to think before talking. His emptiness shows each time he talks.

Irony1:
Oga there is nothing due to reforms abeg. They need a merchant bank license so it has nothing to do with the average Nigerian. They are only serving hot money portfolio investors, they will serve as a focal point for these Inflows.

So the investors that will bring their money through them will blow it to the air abi? Wouldn't such monies flow down to investments into companies and activities in our economy? Will such not have positive effect on Nigerians.

I don't understand what some people think as their concept of a common man. May be to share food and clothing and cheap transportation.

Why haven't they entered the Nigerian banking sector all these years? Do you think that nothing attracted them?

Streetinvestor2:
so someone abroad should continue to send money to an idiot in nigeria who will not go out to vote
Abi go out to vote a drug baron. He needs to suffer for his brain to reset

Na Obi sent them abroad with his money? When families were selling their properties to sponsor their children did Obi contribute? What is Obi's business in other people's family affairs. They shouldn't send money to their relatives back home but they should donate their money for his personal ambition. See Nigerian presidential aspirant.

lionshare:
Lets see, maybe you are right. Here is the new CPI weighting after rebasing. Now lets compare prices in September last year with September this year using these weights and see what the inflation rate would have been.

| CPI Division | New Weight |
|---|---:|
| Food & non-alcoholic beverages | 40.0% |
| Restaurants & accommodation | 12.9% |
| Housing & utilities | 8.4% |
| Transport | 10.7% |
| Education | 6.2% |
| Health | 6.1% |
| Clothing & footwear | 5.0% |
| Household equipment & maintenance | 3.0% |
| Information & communication | 3.3% |
| Personal care & miscellaneous | 3.3% |
| Alcohol, tobacco & narcotics | 0.4% |
| Recreation, sport & culture | 0.3% |
| Insurance & financial services | 0.5% |

Use the actual prices for September last year and September this year to calculate the inflation rate. The data is publicly available. If you disagree with the numbers, then prove it with the figures.

You just wasted your time and data. He doesn't understand what you posted. Faceless forums are for all comers. Everyone is expert.

Mopolchi:
He wants the backing of the armed forces but it will not work. The man from Irabiji must go in 2027!

Aren't you happy? Projects everywhere. Where is this government getting the money for these projects that other regimes couldn't? Hope being renewed everywhere.

Mandem05:
Like El Rufai ba?? What did his say about El Rufai prior to 2023 election when El Rufai indicated that he wanted to go and further his education? I know for a fact that you will not answer my question directly but for once abeg crave my endulgence.

Of course friends quarrel, disagree and sometimes part way. A man that has broad mind will still have many around him. Haven't you ever disagreed and parted way with any of your best friends in life?

Forumobserver12:
Tinubu and broad mindedness in same sentence? Cmon let's be real, Tinubu is ethic Jingoist...

Why is it that he has friends across tribes?

Sharatan:
show me the evidence of what you say!! Liar!!

Counter me if you have facts. I will not help you.

Ofunaofu:
Soludo shouldn’t be engaging in this kind of lamentation over the South-East’s exclusion from the Gas Master Plan after being friends with Tinubu for over 20 years and even declaring total support for Tinubu’s re-election bid.

He should be marching to Aso Rock to demand the South-East’s inclusion, not merely lamenting its exclusion. No na!

Was the gas master plan drawn during Tinubu's regime? Indeed it wasn't during Buhari's. It was during your beloved PDP era. With the avalanche of Igbos in high position then why was Anambra excluded? Your beloved Obi was a prominent member back then. What did he do.

Trust broad minded PBAT. Once it's brought to his attention he will give instruction accordingly.

Tenses:
You think SE nah your region?

I'm in Aba and I'm from South East. The dynamics have changed from what it was in 2023. Our brand of politics is self defeatist. We hated Buhari but when he won we began to complain marginalization. Again we so much hate Tinubu but we want him to extend good things to us. Hypocrisy. Thank God that Tinubu is a man with big heart. Try this with vindictive OBJ and he will dry up the south east for four years.

Tenses:
If he sure for Alex make he charge Abians to vote for bola.

Watch out for January 2027. Tinubu's votes will be far higher than what he and Buhari ever got in the past.

Sheuns:
I guess 33 is now greater than hundreds of millions.

Are the governors on their own. Are they not leaders and representatives of people. You mean that the areas that they govern they don't have followership?

Tenses:
Alex Otti is greater than the 33 1d1ots combined.

Your Alex Otti is for Tinubu codedly. He's hiding for political expediency.

happney65:
Story. Amotekun was set up to Man only forest? It is named "The Western Nigeria Security Network"

So if Lagos knew it wont be a signatory to it and wont activate it why did they join? In case you dont know,The Lagos state house of Assembly has passed it into Law in Lagos yet Lagos doesnt have a single Amotekun force till date

Yeye talk

You will not understand. Lagos is a cosmopolitan city so their approach to security is different. Lagos has a security trust fund where the state and private sector pool resources together. The federal police in Lagos is the best funded.

Lagos also has neighbourhood watch - a localized policing in LCDAs. The concept of Rapid Response Squad RRS was started in Lagos during Tinubu's government. We that live in Lagos know the impact of RRS in Lagos.

Overall, the above made Lagos the safest state. I can bet you if state police becomes official Lagos will be the first to set up theirs. They already have the structure and funding in place.

Ofunaofu:
With this haphazard APC campaign, Tinubu already knows he’s on the road to defeat.

Deep down, he knows he hasn’t earned a second term.

No campaign slogan for a second term? What happened to Renewed Hope?

I guess when the first term delivers renewed hardship instead of renewed hope, even the slogan becomes too embarrassing to repeat.

Tinubu is steadily laying his strategies out. Where are the other contestants? Where are their PCC? Let them show us their manifesto. They are all busy telling us what Tinubu didn't do without telling us what they can do. One has visited women processing cassava. He passed through road constructed by Wike but he told us that infrastructure doesn't grow an economy. In the video the women were indifferent. They no know am.

Ofunaofu:
Meeting people right where they are to be met, now that’s leadership.

Not hiding away in a bunker, afraid to meet or speak to the very people you claim to lead for fear of being stoned, pelted with pure-water sachets, and greeted with chants of Ole! Ole!

Tell your Obi to stop content creation. Let him constitute his PCC and let us see. Let him show us his manifesto and let us see. The business of being the president of Federal Republic of Nigeria is a serious business. It's not for jesters.

Lifediary:
Please, was It PBAT that constructed the bridge? Or am I missing something?

This is what you see when you have sycophants in government.

Imagine PBAT was the one whose government constructed the 2nd Niger bridge!?

The man that constructed the second niger bridge did you show gratitude? You insulted and hated him till his death. You blamed Tinubu that he hoisted him on Nigeria. You abused the party. So what is the difference?

You can only appreciate and hype it if it was done by Obi. Your borrowed brother Jonathan was there but he did none of this. I tire for our people and their brand of politics. That's why the center eludes us.

Memphis357:
Tinubu spent over a month in France, and Bayo Onanuga told Nigerians he was resting and preparing for the “rigorous campaign season ahead.” Now that the campaign is here, he appears to be outsourcing the heavy lifting to APC governors.

The schedule released by the APC suggests Tinubu will attend fewer campaign venues than most presidential candidates in Nigeria.

So, what exactly was he preparing for in France, Mr. Onanuga? If he was resting for a rigorous campaign, why is he now leaving the heavy lifting to the governors?
Which is which?

The schedule listed 12 states that he will lead the campaign. Are the other presidential candidates presidents? Do they have the work load of the president? Should the president abandon the ship of state for election campaign? Is this the best for Nigeria and Nigerian economy?

For me Tinubu is confident of returning and he doesn't want to derail his program because of election campaign. Besides he has got people that he trusts and believes in his vision. What is wrong in his allowing them to campaign for him. The other candidates don't have such liberty so they have to labour it out themselves.

Watch APC and Tinubu. There is absolute capacity, thoughtfulness and planning. The other parties have not constituted their PCC, no manifesto, no schedule and no plan and program.
