So this man keeps records of monies that he gives out to support charity. This shows that he is not giving them for altruistic reasons. Have we ever heard of the amount the late MKO donated in a particular period? In my own little way I support the needy and good courses but I don't have records.

Once I begin to keep records then I'm no longer altruistic and it's for publicity.

This is cpmming from the FG, when the same president just have the super falcons dollars 💸 instead of giving them in naira..

You guys are not ready yet

Did the president say that he's giving them dollars? No wonder it's easy to manipulate Nigerians.

Stop the nonsense talk guy. The government has all the tech needed to tackle fraud in any poverty alleviation programs they start.

In other countries, there's universal credit, social security welfare - And also tools designed to prevent fraud.

But in Nigeria, they'll launch a poverty program, and instead of reaching the people who really need it, they'll hand it out to their cronies.

When it fails, they'll blame the masses, and people like you will eat it up.

You got genuine farmers in your village - did any of them benefit from these scam programs?

First you must learn how to talk without insulting. It's a mark of decency and good exposure.

Back to the topic. Records have shown that programs set up by governments one way or the other were abused. Good examples are NDE, scholarships, bursary awards, ABS from cbn, microcredit schemes etc. I have been privileged to audit some of these and I can tell you first hand that Nigerians have the tendency to abuse. This is not to exonerate the politicians and government officials. We love to cite good practices in other nations but are we like them?

The percentage of Nigerians that will have opportunities to defraud but refuse is very low. This is the hard truth.

What do you expect when you don't put your feet down and fight corruption?

Can he even do anything when he himself is the pillar of corruption?

Are you not corrupt? You are ready to cut corners so long as it's convenient. How many will people in government fight when the foundation is already destroyed?

Racoon:
So the sanctimonious Buhari under whose watch unbridled corruption engulfed this nation was also not aware his social intervention programs were riddled with unimaginable corruption? Not when the minister of humanitarian affair was a baggage of purifying corruption.

Why is everyone of these Buhari's rudderless and impactless govt tryin g in futility to exonerate him by whitewashing him for who he never was?

You didn't talk about the character of the average Nigerian. Every government intention is manipulated and becomes tools of corruption. How can a people progress with this mind set? SureP, DRFRI, NDE, fuel subsidy etc. all good intentions but destroyed by the corruption mindset of average Nigerian. Nigeria needs total cleansing not only within the political class but character of the average Nigerian.

AMINDA:
Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers state and Governor Adeleke of Osun State with his withheld local government allocations will beg to differ with you. Even Governor Sheriff of Delta and his Godfather Okowa with the EFCC Sword of Damocles hanging over his head will beg to differ with you. Ex-Governor Yahaya Bello, the new born-again will beg to differ with you. But the APC should remember that you can't force people to like you. You can't buy love and neither can you copy respect.

What do you have to say concerning Alex Oti and Soludo that have always spoken well of the president? The truth is that all governors know that they have never had it so good under any other president. He has made governance easier for them by so much liquidity. If you are one of them would you rather experiment with untested hands?

When we say fight to make your own dominant environment workable,liveable and comfortable for you and your children....we are called local champions . This is what happens when your home is a mess ,no matter where you run to people will treat you as they see your home. The more chaotic and destructive your home is, the less people take you seriously or acccord you any sort of respect even if you're a Dr or well -known soccer player ( at most you'll feel and see that you're just being tolerated ). Look at your passport ranking and you'll get a clue of how you'll be treated or perceived out there

Why do you people speak so hatefully of your country? Did they tell you that this was targeted at Nigerians? This is a UK general policy to reduce immigration and reserve jobs for their citizens. They may change the policy anytime if they discover that there is shortage of labour.

Nigerians are not the largest immigrants in the UK. There are lots and lots of Indians, Pakistani and a lot more Asians.

Man is scared like mad... his work rate has increased.

No worry, come 2027, you will leave that place. Shebi your wife dey wish Super Falcons kini kan.... una just dey start.

You will work like you have never worked in your entire life. Someone should move his medical doctor to Aso Rock. He is going to need it.

Trash..... very big trash. We are talking about serious issue that has plagued development since Atiku and OBJ messed up the power privatisation and you are bringing politics into it.

Nigerians and political wa wa wa. Everyone is chochocho expert. Just like football.... everyone is a coach and an expert.

JuanDeDios:
I agree his economic policies will benefit the country in the long run. Whether we'll be able to take advantage of the benefits and whether the mass impoverishment currently going on will be a good price to pay are different matters. I personally think he could have managed subsidy removal far better.

Also, he's not done so well on security so far. If he doesn't shape up, that'll make nonsense of anything he achieves on the economy. It's also what he'll be judged by.

Very objective comment. Trained people in this forum should always be objective. It's possible that his advisors read forums like this. If he does well it's for every Nigerian. He might not benefit as much as we would.

These statisticians think we are all dumb. What did you benchmark on to get your growth rate? Or are they saying those sectors were at 0%?

Write them to complain. Once it's not negative then it's wrong. Figures of this type is it not YoY? They are telling the whole world that their brain are empty according to you.

aceman88:
APC fanatics, London branch have enough time to be engaging and replying this woman every now and then. This time around they are not dropping pair of shoes and wrist watch in her office.

Sensible people will always protect their family no matter their internal problems but fools will expose their families to ridicule to the public.

If Kemi insult and ridicules Nigeria the effect will be on Nigerians and not on APC or PBAT alone. The top politicians and their families can easily get their visas but the ordinary Nigerians will always be affected by negative perception.

israelmao:
APC- led government in a decade plus justification of failure in governance.

When PDP was in power for 16 years was Nigeria one of the top 20? Show workings please.

LordFaraday:
‎I honestly can’t understand why people like you remain unconcerned, even as Nigeria is now officially ranked the 12th poorest country in the world.
‎
‎This should be a wake-up call for every well-meaning Nigerian. The APC government has mastered the art of propaganda—selling illusions while the country slides deeper into poverty.
‎
‎We can't afford to stay silent or indifferent. It's time to open our eyes, challenge the narrative, and demand accountable, visionary leadership. Our future—and that of the next generation—depends on it.

Forget the poorest country sing song. India with the 4th highest GDP in the world is still classified as poorest country. The high population weighs down the productivity of such nations. A country can come out of the list even if it has moderate GDP but low population. China has high per capita because she's highly productive and the population is controlled.

What we want in Nigeria is to breed children, invite foreigners to come and extract raw materials, allow politicians to steal as much as they want and use the remaining to appease us by giving us subsidized imported goods. Anything to the contrary we resist.

DeLaRue:
What is surprising is that the UK is only a few hundred billion from catching up with Japan, and is around $600 billion ahead of France.

I have always wondered how the UK has such high GDP.

These days, you can hardly find anything anywhere that is is 'Made in England' or 'Made in the UK',yet its GDPis nearly 20% more than France. It is quite an achievement.

However, despite a high GDP, it has the most complaining people on planet earth

If you check you tube, you would think it is worse than Somalia the way people there whinge non stop.

The UK is very rich in the service sector. This sector is a major contributor to most GDPs. The UK is packed with highly trained people both nationals and immigrants. This has always been the strength of their economy.

Reno Omrik is invited to the feast to defend Emilokan govt why it has not made to the top twenty in spite of the economic feats being reported daily.

You have destroyed Nigeria long ago. The man at the saddle now is trying to reengineer and relay the foundation but you guys are calling him names.

All those African countries practicing stop and push economics that you love so much did you see them on that list? The economies that are on that list go and find out what they are practicing. Do they have multiple exchange rates? Do they practice state controlled economy? Leave Reno alone. He believes in facts and not sentiments that's why you don't like him.

PA AMODA SANGODELE IS A FIRST CLASS ACCOUNTANT FROM CHICAGO AND HE WOULD MAKE NIGERIA THE BIGGEST ECONOMY IN THE WORLD.

Nigeria that una destroyed teteh. You are calling on someone that has only been on the saddle for only two years.

Apostles of poverty capital of the world can you learn a lesson from the position of India? I'll will not provide any answer until I hear them talk.

You will not understand. Your population is too large and the bulk it is unproductive. Liberia for example is lower than Nigeria but the size of the Liberian economy is not up to Lagos State. Reduce your breeding of children.

Who is datti exactly working for? Time shall tell

Because he said the truth? Datti is more of an intellectual or professional than a conventional politician. People in his category say the truth and don't pretend unlike your....

stanluiz:
Very simple as ABCD. Atiku obi ticket is the only ticket that can dislodged Apc from power.

Did you read the interview properly? He said that all those that are not happy in APC are joining ADC. This means that ADC is coalition of annoyed people e.g. Amechi that ate manner from the plate of APC for 8 years is now against APC because of no manner for only two years. Such a person said that he wants to change Nigeria. Can I take such a person serious?

When it's time for election so many questions will be asked from key members of the coalition.

Bizibi:
I the buhari administration approved it...... propaganda is not good at all

Why not watch and see if it will be paid or not before you call it propaganda. You guys are misusing the the word.

What happened to PDP's 16 years that was closer to the event? Even with the flourishing economy of that time?

Chidex50:
It's Constitution followed? No! They do what they want in this Country and go free. No accountability!

Who told you that the constitution is not followed. Go and read and understand what MTEF is and the statute backing it. You are one of those that Renor said that don't read and are easily misinformed.

iwaeda:
Owo election to distribute, the effect of ADC is glaring now, panick everywhere..

Lies and lies...... this has been in the planning for 3 years. Some infrastructure has been put in place in different locations.

Landmaq:
Reforms that threw 70 millions into multi dimensional poverty?

Forget this phrase. Reposition yourself and you will enjoy present day Nigeria. I make my suits, shirts and chinos trousers from Aba tailors. I order my perfume oil that lasts for three days when I spray it from a local producer in Lagos. In Aba there's no foreign rice anymore. They are called foreign-local. All poultry products consumed in Aba are produced by local farmers.

All these are happening because devaluation of our currency has made imports expensive. This has created jobs and income for local producers. In the past I would have used imported items. This created jobs in the exporting countries and reduced us to mere buying and selling traders.

What has changed in Nigeria of today is this:
1. Days of becoming a millionaire by having a warehouse, import anything from Asia and sell are gone.
2. Your certificate without skill will not feed you. Get a sellable skill and you have a job and good life. That's how it is abroad.
3. No more subsidized life. Think outside the box, add value to the economy and you will enjoy a good life.
4. Apart from politics, there's no more cheap money. When you work for your money then your are adding value to the economy.

Don't be deceived by shouts of ADC, LP, APC, PDP, Obi, Atiku etc. PBAT has set a template for Nigeria economy. If any of the above takes over they will not bring anything fundamentally different. They are aware that what is happening now is the right way to go. Everyone avoided it because it was a hard nut. Someone has dared and decided to carry the bad name. The dirty job has been done already.

Forget easy and cheap life it will not come again in Nigeria. Be innovative, drop a lot of old subsidized lifestyles and you will enjoy the new Nigeria.

Borrow2222:
It seems PO is now the president.

Almost every daily news outlet talks about him.

I hear news about PO more than the sleeping APC president.

Chochocho is not the hallmark of a president. Being in the news everyday for relevant and irrelevant issues is too childish. Watch PBAT.....talks less but strikes like thunder.

SeeAllen:
Peter Obi is a rare breed of political element in Nigeria.

Story.....why is he always talking like this? Always praising and painting himself as the only one that is a saint. Allow people to praise and speak of your works. This is more dignifying and integrity. When he gives he makes so much show of it. I see all that he is doing as politics.
