Chai! They want to improve their manpower.


While the large manpower in Nigeria are unemployed.

Part of the cause of poverty in Nigeria is excess population.

Psalmistproject:
Hahahaha.... Nigeria is too big and too divided to be fully controlled by any illegitimate power, foreign or local.
90% of the problems tinubu is facing now and continue to face is because he rigged his way through. Even his enemies knows this. And they know if he is terminated no body will lose sleep except his family.
The current decamping into APC is about something big. Nigeria will be divided into north and south. He needs full support and absolute control of the legislature to start the movement.
The North can't endure him rule for another 2yrs let alone 8 years.
But it wouldn't have been this way, if Obi wasn't rigged out.
As it stands today, Obi is the only uniting force the entire country will allow to govern if he's president.
The same people that rigged tinubu in, knows where all the bodies are buried and won't quit until he's cut down.
If he's out through mutiny, and someone like mnk is released, kanu can mobilize the entire south east and some parts of south South for secession. The Yorubas will definitely need a figure like KANU but they don't have for now so the best they could do is to form one southern block called southern Nigeria and then break, then spend the next 3yrs to stabilize with the help of Trump.
For this to work, the Igbos are highly needed.
So yeah anyhow it turns out as long as KANU is out, it gets the Igbos closer to their self determination.

Funny 🤣 postulations. You obviously don't know Nigeria. FYI I'm an igbo like you. The North was beginning to have a change of heart to allow an igbo man be at the center in spite of our poor politics. With what Kanu's insults to them and now Obi's bigotry which is very open it's bye bye to the center for now.

Even if there's a coup it will still be a northerner. Kanu will either be locked up permanently or released with strong conditions. As a military government he will dare not flout them. Our people don't like being realistic.

muyico:
We no want military coup, I withness IBB and abacha era, they shown Nigeria shege,

Don't mind the children in this forum. The international sanction that will hit Nigeria will be like earthquake.

Psalmistproject:
If there's any Truth in this then, tinubu no go escape it. The North doesn't renege and make no mistake this decision is a popular desire by the majority of the people in core north. That's why they need to release nnamdi kanu now before the shit hit the fan.

But I don't even feel sorry for tinubu no matter what happens later. He had the guts to remove the governor of a state under the guise of state of emergency just to perpetuate his political interest. He deserves what ever he gets

You think that a coup will affect only Tinubu? You are very naive. All levels of government will be sacked. The constitution will be suspended. Sowore cannot protest otherwise he's gone. Major nations will sanction Nigeria. The poor will suffer most. The military corruption is A1 and you dare not talk or you are killed or locked up. Where is Dele Giwa? Where is Gloria Okon?

Streetinvestor2:
Baba GOD why.The celebration on the streets would have been loud. Nobody has the monopoly to grab power and run away.
Time still plenty in the future

We know how is used to happen in dodan barracks back then. If you know what a military rule is you wouldn't say what you are saying. You will never have the freedom to say half of what you say here. They don't believe in court or rule of law. They might decide to kill Kanu or lock him up and throw the keys away and nothing will happen. Major nations will declare Nigeria a pariah nation. The sanctions will hurt the poor more.

Floky215:
It would have been one of the most happiest day in Nigeria and for Nigerians....

You don't know what a military rule is. I'm sure that you belong to the idomie generation.

Rexnegro:
Bro we should forget what Nigeria have done for them in past, if we check underneath things there might be something Nigeria benefitted from all that apartheid struggled that we assisted them on. We should stop all that talk abeg , he read the minister that it was Nigeria that pushed more for that petition so he got every right to exercise or not to exercise his discretion on us not to qualify. Abi nahim say make we no win matches wey we no win ? Enough of what Nigeria did for sa this for SA that abeg. Nigerians soiling sa nko ?

Nigeria gained nothing for assisting SA. Nigeria then was home to SAs. Many of them were residing here. Nigeria spent her money and used her influence. We courted trouble with Britain by nationalizing some of their companies here in order to put pressure on Britain.

Racoon:
Michelin coming back is a good thing but does that translate to better life for the populace that have long been bastardized by all the anti - human policies of this rudderless government?

Simple answer: yes. If you have any further questions then go and study economics.

gidgiddy:
But you guys saw nothing wrong when another potential President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, called for Kanu’s release, all because Atiku is a Northerner and Obi is Igbo

Why didn't Atiku call for his release when Buhari his brother that started this whole thing was in charge?

LibertyRep:
The trial should commence and concluded as soon as possible. The party deploying the delay tactics should be sternly warned by the court.

This lawyer should be sanctioned by the court. You don't talk like this outside the court for a case that is in the court. Particularly when you are the defence counsel. Being a defence counsel is not activism. The same lawyer encouraged Kanu to insult judges and one by one judges began to avoid his case until more responsible and senior lawyers apologized on his behalf. Some people including lawyers are using Kanu to shine. That's why they don't want the case to be concluded.

Brendaniel:
But depreciation of dollars is a bad thing abi? Chai! Buhari has proven to be smarter than Tinubu in not listening to this people

Is dollar subsidized? Does the value reflect productivity in the home country? Can you compare the above with a subsidized currency that the productivity of the country cannot defend? That made fx arbitragers become overnight billionaires with no productivity.

LagosOrigin:
I wish him quick recovery. But why is APC tinubu covering up his sickness?

In sane clime, the health status of political appointees are made public . From the president to his political appointees . But here in Nigeria under tinubu, the health status of political appointees and their principal is kept away from public.

Yeah in sane clime people don't mock the sick or rejoice over the death of anyone because anyone including babies can fall sick and can also die. In insane clime like ours the reverse is the case.

Lanruze:
For the fact that data and statistics have shown evidently that more Nigerians are sliding into poverty through a badly devalued currency, the excruciating energy cost and hike in the price of food staples and a highly inflated Electrictry tariff hike is a cause for worry for the struggling middle-class.

However, Politicians keep decamping to the same party that has devalued the currency and given them a now humongous undervalued currency as FAAC allocation shows that there is a big disconnect between the Elite and electorate.

If you were a president that took over and met:
Massive printing of money to meet recurrent costs.

Most of the states owing workers salary for up to 27 months.

Heavy backlog of fx obligations that could not be met.

Forward sell of crude oil not yet produced.

Low power generation and distribution.

Massive petroleum products subsidy corruption.

Heavy corruption through fx arbitrage.

What would you have done??

LibertyRep:
What exactly is the magic/ spell the president is using on these politicians ?

Or does he have a horsewhip somewhere?

Even the NASS members are decamping in drove.

Shouldn't the party be losing more states to the opposition instead?

Well, next year carries so much significance for the opposition. If they like they should continue in disarray.

Tinubu is a good and trusted politician. Politicians love him. Even those in opposition. The hatred coming from Atiku and Obi is because of their personal ambition.

Those that hate his boldness dislike him. OBJ is very brash, Yaradua and Jonathan are not natural politicians and are weak. Bubu is the worst. He made a mess of APC and that was why Saraki shone. But PBAT is a true and true politician. Look at how he handled the making of a choice between Amechi and Wike in 2023.

Outside obedients revolt he can bring Obi into his boat. He has worked with Atiku before. Atiku's sudden hatred is that he's convinced that with PBAT in power it's bye bye to his presidential ambition. Politicians will rally around him even when he leaves power.

Nwaikpe:
How such a man became popular and famous is still the issue today.

That is what bad government can do.

A bad government can make a nobody popular.

You aren't known Baba 70. Ask

1Alex:
And what is PWC for crying out loud?

PWC - Price Waterhouse Coopers. One of the largest global accounting, financial and management consulting outfit. If it's from them then it's a measure of credibility.

bolaayenimo:
Wale Edun lacks the physical and mental strength to manage Nigeria's finances and economy. Simple truth

If you are qualified enough to know the level of "physical and mental strength" required to manage"Nigeria's finances and economy" then you are good enough for the job. Why can't you apply? Maybe you will be the messiah that we have been looking for. Mtchee mtchee.

UkoAnnang:

Aaaah

The only guine man of God I know and love
He didn't preach and collect tithes nor established his own church and collect offerings for God

May his soul rest in peace

How was his ministry funded? All the establishments of the ministry, how were they funded? His definite call was evangelistic and not pastoral. He majored on it and made a huge success on it. He was heavily funded. Do you know what it will cost you to invite Uma Ukpai to your program? Ask around.

Minjim:
Though this dude is highly controversial. One thing I can't take from him is that he's a go-getter.

Simple fact: the war was costing America huge amount. Trump is interested in stopping wastage of American resources on foreign missions. The Ukrainian war is not this easy for him in spite of his closeness to Putin. Reason is that he's not funding Russia.

Sowore na guy man. What he's doing is his normal business. If he didn't do this how can he account for the funds released to him? Why didn't he try this under Bubu? This whole matter started under Bubu. Why the pressure on PBAT? Why didn't Atiku speak against holding Kanu when Bubu his brother was in charge? The damage done by Kanu to the south east is incalculable. Up till now the south east economy has been cut to four working days per week while the rest of nation operates on five days. Ask any economist and they will tell you that it runs into trillions.

Kanu overdid everything. He behaved as if he was untouchable then. He insulted all igbo elites and ndieze. When he was released rather than allow the legal process to run he again went on overdrive. Thank God for democracy. If it was during the military it would've been history by now. If obasanjo, Diya etc can be jailed and MKO and wife can be killed then kanu's case under military would have been nothing.

Let him be released conditionally or let the legal process run its full course. Unfortunately his legal team has never been interested in fastening the process.

Where them for play am?

Neutral venue. The present arrangement gave SA undue advantage.

The man no send Nigerians. If we no want him, him go park go other countries we dey beg him to come.

Mckandre:
That figure is actually below the expected 720billion naira worth of power that was distributed.

It means that government is still subsidizing heavily.

Very popular back then. This is how people should be remembered. Apparently not too lettered but he impacted his world.

Na here Atiku put head? Why didn't he advice his brother Buhari that started?

iceking4:
Stop using emotions to think, sometimes be objective!...

You sack all Nigerian Engineers in a single day with the term "sabotage". The company cannot still explain the type of sabotage and how it involves all the Nigerian nations. Some of you make all this comments because of political affiliations. I have friends there with family that are greatly affected by this without even knowing the crime the committed. Some of them did not even join the union, but they were sacked.

"We cannot sabotage the refinery. We love the refinery. Some of us built it from the beginning. How can we sabotage what we built? It is not possible. We’ve been very committed, and we were doing everything to ensure the success of the plant for the good of all Nigerians."

When I read that they have sacked all Nigerians and only Indians are running the refinery then I knew that they were lying. How many Indians that are in the refinery that only them can run it? Is Dangote not a profit oriented company? How can they prefer to spend more paying Indians if everything is right? Either they are more competent and loyal than the Nigerians sacked. Dangote has been battling the cabal so any trace of disloyalty will naturally not be tolerated.

Kalulu44:
Mehn! Can you guys hear yourself talk? First of all I am not denying that some people are naturally brilliant even without attending some schools. But how did you gain admission into those higher institutions without your results from primary and secondary schools you now attest you didn’t attend. That means you must have cut corners somehow somewhere.
Then on Mr president case, he told everybody he attended both primary and secondary just that those schools can’t be verify until date. Imagine he said he attended a secondary school that wasn’t yet established when he said he attended them.
So why won’t people think his CSU certificate maybe fake.
Let me tell you the truth from my own point of view, I am not an investigative journalist nor have been to Chicago before. But from what we’re hearing since Mr president started his campaign till becoming president, the rumors are too humongous to ignore.
You rmbr how Reno Omokri stood his ground about everything he said about Mr President and even challenged him to sue him if he’s lying.
Just that the Reno has been bought over not that he fact checked anything. So all this rumors will make many laymen like we believe otherwise . Have a nice day

No corners were cut. I got inspired by a friend that attended secondary school but with division three results. He was always writing GCE every year. I bought those books that he kept reading including the almighty mathematics. Laid hand on some correspondence study materials. Battled with them for one year and registered for GCE and that was it. My last formal school then was primary school. My friend that inspired me was still struggling to make his papers and I was through at first attempt. I attempted "A" Levels twice and I was ok.

I had a friend that got a job as a cleaner in a bank with primary school certificate but ended up upgrading to ACIB and MBA. So Bola Tinubu could be in this class. He looks it.

Kalulu44:
Leave that cloning matter, I was among those who blasted the mugu dem for believing such.
.
But in this case it seems you don't get it. I said he used someone else certificate bearing his same named. and what makes you think he can't have some knowledge of accounting even when using someone else's cert.
The case of the recent resign minister of science and technology. They said he didn't attend the school or forge the certificate. But wasn't he performing his duty as such.
Now let's agree President Tinubu has the original certificate. Now what about his primary and secondary school certificate or the known schools he attended in Nigeria before going to Chicago. Why is that shrouded in secrecy

Not a big deal. I didn't attend secondary school but I'm a chartered accountant and I have a higher degree. I have one or two friends that retired as senior bankers. They are members of CIBN and some have MBA but they didn't attend secondary school.

You see.... a determined brilliant person can achieve anything. What others spent five years in secondary school and found difficult were achieved by us in one year through burying our heads in books.

There is no way Tinubu would have done well in a multinational private company at a high level without sound training. The Minister's case is public office. Empty people can be covered there.

Kalulu44:
Yes the certificate is genuine but own by another lady also called Bola Tinubu. He bought it if you must know.

Show proof. You wouldn't have worked in a multinational company to a high level and performed excellently with issues like this. I hope you know what exonmobil is. If he didn't earn the certificate how did he get the knowledge that enabled him to perform?People should stop being naive. When I knew that a lot of our people including educated people have lost it was when they believed that a president can be dead, cloned and the cloned entity ruled a nation for years without his ministers, governors, legislatures, judges, embassies and international community raising issues.

Back to the issue that you raised: after Atiku and opposition efforts the school and the US courts attested that Tinubu attended the school and graduated accordingly. This is public knowledge.

Elusive001:
Which thumbs up?
Are his own certificates genuine?
If no, why not him resign?

Yes his university attested that his certificate is genuine. UNN and NYSC disowned Uche's certificate.
