Without much ado, jail the idiots and get more information from them, as they might name more of their associates

Bastards

I always knew that buharis administration was filled up with jihadists

Indeed. Extremists hijacked every level of Buhari's government and froze out all other decent and well-meaning Nigerians.

All of s sudden, Malami they cheered when he was doing evil against the SE is now under their brutal incarceration.

Anyway, the man and family that celebrated MNK arrest and kidnap is now eating watery beans.

Let SW just know that Southern Unity is DEAD.

Lol. Anyone seeking "Southern unity" with you impotent lot need their head examined. What do you bring to the table and what can you offef anyone? Joke.

SmartPolician:
Which one be first? There are lots of EV companies in Nigeria

Always preferable to read and understand fully before rushing to speak. Ultimate target is a domestic African EV industry.

If Nigeria successfully steals a march on others then the socioeconomic benefits are obvious to progressive minds

Regional Context and Opportunities.
Across Africa, electric vehicle adoption is growing but remains limited. According to EV24, the continent had over 30,000 EVs in use by mid‑2025, accounting for less than 1 percent of total vehicle sales.


Ethiopia leads with about 100,000 EVs, followed by Ghana with 17,000, Morocco with 10,000, South Africa with 6,000, Egypt with 3,500–4,000, and Kenya with nearly 3,800.

Most EVs are motorcycles or commercial vehicles, and adoption is constrained by high costs and limited charging infrastructure.

Nigeria’s agreement with South Korea’s Asia Economic Development Committee to build Africa’s first full-scale EV plant highlights its ambition to move beyond assembly toward a sustainable domestic EV industry.

Orlandoo:
Maybe it will be powered with amala and ewedu.

Mariangeles:
Ontop which light? 😳


Xxxxxxx

MrUnitedstatesA:

What a joke. No electricity for the populace but we will be producing electric vehicles ? When we buy them ,where will we charge them?. Or are we going to export to much more serious African countries that have more stable power ?

Apc and it's weird priorities . Why not have these Koreans invest in more power generation and distribution first before this. Or you want us to be excited because this is " Africa's first" ? How should that impress us when we know it will fail and embarrass us. Other Africans have such major projects ,they don't fail because they plan properly and for longterm . We are all about chasing glory and easy clout. APC followers are something else

Does the word "factory" not indicate to you guys that this is not about Nigeria's domestic use of EV alone but an African platform for the cost-effective assembly and distribution of EV's across the African continents and the world even?


I guess hatred of one's own nation comes with missing the obvious in a rush to denigrate Nigeria which, in reality, has a few competitive advantages that made South Korea consider her for this.

Jeff Bezos etal have have factories across the world ,in China etal, that are just hubs for production of goods that will then be distributed worldwide.

If this were about South Korea supplying Nigeria with EV, as most of you wrongly assume, why then don't they just distribute to us direct as China does with several EV models today Nigerians can order to be delivered in 5 to 6 weeks? Na wa.

Nigeria signs deal with South Korea to launch Africa’s first electric vehicle factory
Olamilekan Okebiorun 03 February 2026 06:03 AM

Nigeria has taken a major step toward establishing a domestic electric vehicle (EV) industry after signing an agreement with South Korea’s Asia Economic Development Committee (AEDC) to establish what officials are calling Africa’s first EV manufacturing plant.

angelboy01:
OP Abeg where you dey always see this your asabari news?

Lol. Some drunken bar around Upper Iweka for sure.

nairalanda1:
Okay, enjoy the bad government that made it possible.

The only bad Government that made it possible is that from Northern politicians who refused to educate and develop their human resources to the extent many are not civilized and prefer to live in Forest and bushes rather than a home in a community where they can build what is the best model of purposeful and progressive life in the world today.

I really don't understand people like you frothing at the mouth at "Government". Is it that you are scared to mention the specific regions failed government is from when we inspect the existential menace Northerners have become to Nigeria?

You think well-educated and civilised human being go around vagrantly murdering strangers, taking over land and territory of others or is it that such behaviour more suited to Neanderthals from stone age?

Bro speak the truth and shame the Devil. The USA did it and even Gumi is now beginning to make concessions and admissions he never would have made even six months ago when he was strutting around gaslighting the entire Nigeria as guilty of "neglecting" and "marginalising" Northern children.

Whereas we know that is lies from the pits of hell because those subjugating, marginalizing, neglecting and dehumanising Northern children are Northern leaders.

Ditto herdsmen who are now too used to living like savages white civilisation discovered in Africa well over a century ago and refuse to adapt to life as we know it today.

Fact is that Northern big men keep these boys as cheap, uneducated and uncivilised labour, they groom from a young age, to use tending to their Cattle flock.

Your take is offensive bro. Nigeria is going down because we keep refusing to tell ourselves the truth while indulging monsters who are distinterested in reforming and will take us all down with them in the end.

nairalanda1:
I am not excusing anything, nor am I grandstar, nor do I support nomadic herding, and I am angry government has not developed the railways system so that cows can be transported that way, nor am I supporting the guy's carrying AK 47 (especially since some of them use their gun for things like attacking farms and kidnappin)

But unfortunately bandits, and boko haram attack fulani herdsmen and steal their cows. Hence the AK 47.

Add the fact that the police is poorly funded, and that we don't have adequate rail transport, and thus people do self help.

You're not making sense. Bottom line is that fortified ranching would be the answer if the herdsmen were open to that option instead of being incorrigible and obtuse vagrants who love going up and doing getting up to all sorts when such is no longer tenable in this day and age.

Why insisting on such a backwards practice when you can increase yield, profit, commercial animal husbandry etc embracing modernity?

Look what small Netherlands has made from modern Cattle rearing while the production of Cattle in Nigeria is now linked to deaths, maimings, misery and destruction of livelihood etc.

You are simply doing a Bala Mohammed who lazily opined that Fulani herdsmen are justified carrying AK47 foer protectiong when he should, as a Governor and educated leader, be leading the drive for Fulanis to embrace modern and far more productive cattle rearing methods.

chidexleo:
What is all these behaviours for goodness sake.

Simple proof the North is beyond redemption. A feudal and backwards region that is happy to remain that way and that others who are modern and progressive would do well to detach themselves from asap.

It's being a while and now Truthera, predictably, weeps again over Kanu. Lol.

ottersberger:
.
Taah!, go and take several seats. You, political analyst?. Bingo!.

If Mr Obi emerges from the ADC, and that is a tough call, then he will have demonstrated not only his ability to manoeuvre and gain trust, but also his will and political influence within the northern alliance.

Now, the next time reasonable people are discussing politics, excuse yourself.

Lol. Same Obi we know? Impossicant. More chances of seeing purple Pigs fly above Aso Rock than Obi manning up to contest Primaries against other men let alone win.

Same Obi that fled PDP to buy Labour ticket so he could avoid confrontation against Atiku, Wike, Tambuwal etal?

mrvitalis:
Some of you should really do basic research before u open your mouth sha

Obi can't handle northern elit? Lmao

Go ask Anambra people why they change his name from AdaObi to Okwute

Anambra Godfathers were the worse till they meet obi

You can't fight cabal when you are corrupt they must blackmail you

Lol. You think people don't know your history here and how you vehemently insisted Obi is distinctly unfit to lead?

Now you are his biggest cheerleader, because he seems your surest chance of Igbo Presidency, to be daily insisting he is superman and Jesus rolled into one.

You lot and lack of enduring sincerity, principles and integrity are 5 and 6.

Ibrahim1985:
The online twitter war Nigeria vs Rwanda is disappointing at the most. Nigeria is not perfect and even if a fellow Nigerian asked an ignorant question , it should not lead to a bashing of Nigeria as a whole. Every country has gone through a dark phase that can last a few years to a century. No condition is permanent , no country is perfect. A friendly reminder that Nigeria had always step up as big brother in Africa and helped many African countries at their lowest point. When they needed help, Nigeria did not make jest of such countries or made crude jokes of such countries at their lowest. Nigerian allowed many nationals to stay and do businesses and still do till today.

Some went back to their Africa countries and rebuild. To fellow Africans , a successful Africa country is a success to Africa as whole.

Why dont you provide a link to the original issue you are talking about? That would be good social media etiquette.

Remember, not everyone has seen a current online twitter war between Nigeria vs Rwanda let alone know what such is about

Christistruth00:
Then build your own Party and stop trying to hijack what others built

He can't because that level of leadership is beyond the capacity of Obi who is a charlatan pretending to be a leader.

Obi can only ever be gifted a political Party (APGA), or join one (PDP) or buy it even (Labour) to seek office.

He cannot give what he does not have thus cannot build a political Party same way you cannot demand a Stone give you water.

That is how those that are fixated on PO are. They have NO brains...

Very sophisticated failures.

I don't know why you people are collectively devoid of shame like this.

In the post-1999 political history of Nigeria, please show me ome politician, one alone, who calls world press conference over pin dropping in all regions of Nigeria yet is graveyard silent when the worst and most condemnable atrocities happen in his own region, State and doorstep.

You guys have always had hate preachers, war mongers, greedy opportunists, terrorists, ethnic coupists etal as leaders because those sort are who you want leading you since they reflect the character you have and wish your leaders possess also. Simple.

he will surely be your president, go and write today date down

mascot87:
If you really UNDERSTAND what is going on in this country, by now you would be on your knees thanking Tinubu every single day of your life.

Fact baba. Well-said. Those whose eyes have been blinded by ethno-religious prejudice will not understand the progressives and liberating changes Tinubu has been making to free Nigeria from the clutches of her real and very dangerous enemies.

Their hatred of Tinubu's ethnic group and brainwashed inordinate love of their own (Peter Obi) blinds them to what is obvous.

To me it is sure Nigeria is heading for a break-up. The only issue is whether we have the proactive awareness and intellect to make that break-up peaceful and manageable or we remain myopically sbortsided and unreasonable to ensure it is bloody and devastating.

Same as the civil war turned out to be because some could not be reasonable and progressive.

helinues:
I really don't know why charity mean nothing to Peter Obi. Ever since the news about Feb 2 sit at home in South East broke, even though Peter Obi had reacted to several issue after but never said a word about the sur at home which would cripple the economic activities of South East . The potential security collapse is inevitable

Why should Nigerians vote for somebody who cares less about the happenings in his home region while having the believe of being a president of complicated Nigerians

If we are telling the Obidients that Peter Obi can never be Nigeria president, it's not out of hatred but due to poor leadership qualities from Peter Obi

He will be a terrible President. "Yes Daddy" is an ethno-religious bigot who does not hide his religious/ethnic prejudice and bias.

yarimo:
Some unfortunate people made the boy to feel he is above the law

That is precisely what he displayed at the airport.

SaharaReporters gathered that Lieutenant Yerima completely skipped standard passenger screening by entering the boarding terminal through the restricted military wing of the airport, rather than passing through the designated civilian security checkpoints.

Aviation regulations require that all passengers—regardless of status—undergo screening before boarding commercial aircraft. Firearms, even when legally possessed, must be formally declared and handled under strict security protocols.

Yet, according to sources, Yerima proceeded directly towards the aircraft with his pistol, in violation of these rules, until airline officials intervened.

Industry insiders say the incident is far from isolated and reflects a recurring pattern at major Nigerian airports, where military personnel frequently refuse to subject themselves to standard boarding procedures.

A senior ValueJet official, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, told SaharaReporters that such incidents are common and often involve intimidation of airline staff.

“This is the usual practice of military personnel. They refuse to subject themselves to boarding protocol and often threaten airline officials when asked to comply,” the source said.

DLifeless1:
Why you No speak these your english when tinubu fell flat in Turkey, you guys are just too obnoxious.

If you can't speak or write English properly then stay away from public discussion blogs rather than go there to bark at those who can because of your inferiority complex towards them.

If it bothers you that much then enrol in night school and better yourself, rather than hating, because others are not going to start speaking unintelligibly or dumbing themselves down to please you.

Your talk about Tinubu isn't even worth addressing.

Blakjewelry:
Una can mumu for this Nigeria Sha, no wonder the country is like this. Wetin concern wike for this matter.

Precisely. Simple matter of an individual doing wrong is now turned into Wike's matter.

We should tell Yarima to bow and go and never hold him to account the rest of his, after doing wrong, simply because of his altercation with wike. As you concluded, "no wonder the country is like this".

Alsenora:
Smiles. Your dipiction of the fellow brings to mind Hobbesian state of nature. His likes reason like humans of the era in this modern day.

That is what is scary for Nigeria. They open their mouth garrulously daily to attack leaders whereas any rational Nigerian Will be worried about the future of Nigeria given the dubious mindset of those complaining loudest and pointing fingers at others.

Guestmale:
I have seen a lot on Nairaland.I have been banned several times for making comments not as bad as other people's comments on the same subject or topic.

We complain of our political leaders of being full of nepotism yet we see the worst here.

Exchange all Nigerian leaders with Nairalanders and watch Nigeria become worse than Somalia and Afghanistan combined in a few days only.

LagosOrigin:
South east has been proven again to be more peaceful than the entire Yoruba land , south west .

It's funny how you're not intelligent enough to note your comment shows that Yorubas are the sole barometer with which you use to validate your existence and life.

A few regions ridiculously and frighteningly far worse than the SW but it is only Yorubas you see and wish to comment on.

That list could have contained 50 regions yet you and your ilk would only have eyes for Yoruba.

I feel for you guys walahi. Na strong thing dem do una.

Guestmale:
Nairaland is a very partial platform.

No doubt. Some, like myself, are especially targeted because they hit back at those who show they hate our ethnic origin and have no issues insulting us uncouthly to their hearts contents.

Yet the moderating system of Nairaland indulges them to ensure any attempts by their victim to hit back at unsolicited and uncouth insult is met with consistent banning effectively muzzling the voices of others.

They call our President "drug lord" and "Escobar" daily and Seun does not feel that is wrong. Try to show that those who live in glass houses should not throw stone by highlighting the Nigerians who indulge in drug offence globally by far, yet insult our President with drug slur even as he has no conviction for such, and instant ban is your fate.

Abuse of power, open prejudice and ethno-religious partisanship is everywhere being carried out by all Nigerians yet most Nigerians think leaders alone are responsible for our nation not being a paradise.

Lanretoye:
it funny how the bots allow them to post all their sorts of disparaging comments but will ban most responses to their posts.
One posted that it will never be better for me yesterday just because I said I have up to 20/22 hrs of electricity in my home and he wasn’t banned but when I responded by adding the whole of his generation including unborn ones to the league I got banned.

It is terrible and I am really ashamed of Seun as his fellow Yoruba. We don't ask for any favour here. We only demand fairness so that if you dish it then be able to take it.

Rather Seun has created a forum favouring those who love to dish it and insult others as uncouthly as they please, including our President, yet others cannot say anything in response to them without being banned.

Nigeria has no united future and the North ( planned bloody coup to eliminate Tinubu and co plus Atiku's and his fellow Fulani supremacists desperation to replace Fulani with Fulani in 2023) should show every Yoruba we must not be caught lacking when sh1t goes down.

Yet the likes of Seun, and Yorubas have them in large numbers, will ensure we are the biggest victims of the Machiavellian plot of others to dominate and subjugate other Nigerians . Something Yorubas have never engaged in yet we can name a few who have and embraced murder, ethnocentric coups, terrorism, banditry wtal to pursue that domination.

Lol this one don pass ego-tripping. Na "buhari dead and replaced with Jubrin from Sudan " type of self-delusion.

Look at what is stated, correctly, about Obidients below bearing in mind that the tag Obidient can be interchanged with the name of the lot from the SE of which the OP is surely one.

ariesbull:
..and Yoruba region is the most backward region in southern Nigeria in all the indices with the highest crime rates in southern Nigeria ....so that is a curse

"All the indices" in your propagandist and wilfully dishonest mind ba? What I never fail to be amused by is how you guys always assume others are as unlettered as you are.
