The best you can do for yourself is to build and structure your life independent of Nigerian political decisions. It's neither stable nor reliable, no consistency, no blueprints, etc. If it favours your business today it can equally collapse it tomorrow.

So I know what I'm saying.

anonimi:
Whether you buy politicians’ agenda or not, every single aspect of your life is affected by their decisions and actions in public policy and lawmaking plus enforcement.

As For me I'm not buying any of these people's agenda coz none of them has added any value to my life, whatever rocks their boat..,

anonimi:
So why did Tinubu and Obi support Jonathan to use the tribalistic turn of the north in 2011?

Why should the south have another turn next year when it would have 17 years of President, compared to 11 years for the north?

anonimi:
Was it the turn of the north when Tinubu made Buhari president in 2015

If the turn by turn thing is to be followed, normal normal Goodluck was using the turn of the north.

This is one of the commonest reasons marriages crash.

Believing you can change fully grown adults or believing they will change all because of love?

Sometimes you see a temporary change but trust me it won't last, most times that temporary change is just a pretence.

Marry only when you both know you can manage each other flaws,bad sides, etc coz no one is perfect, else remain single for the sake of your peace of mind.

If state police aren’t allowed to fight terrorism then what’s even the point of having them?
I thought the whole reason for state police was to tackle insecurity and protect people at the grassroots level. But now they’re being barred from handling terrorism? Only federal police is allowed to tackle terrorism...same federal police that has failed in that aspect for years?
This just doesn’t make sense.
What exactly is wrong with Nigeria?

It's good you identified that flaw/setup, at the end of the day there won't be any solution to the insecurities.

Boko Haram,iswap, bandits, kidnappers are the main reason we're shouting insecurity today and all these fall under terrorism.

The federal police is already ineffective in combating these criminals earlier mentioned and now if the State Police won't have jurisdiction over them what's the essence. Those who are jubilating over state police should think about these points and instead demand more jurisdiction for them else it won't solve any insecurity problem. Even Amotekun have jurisdiction to combat terrorists.

Small time na superiority gbos gbas between federal and state police we'll be seeing on daily news.
And they'll also be a good tools during election.

Wahala no dey simply tell them you're fasting.

Nobody go force you to break your fasting na.

You're right, you could see I didn't generalised I said some of them and it'll also be a difficult thing to know those who are good, maybe base on recommendation.

Back then a colleague of mine was shot by armed robber in a bank. He spent months at the hospital at last they wanted to cut off his leg, his siblings later took him to his own town and he was successfully treated without being amputated even though he's limping the leg after then

Marigold2rock:
In as much as i do not want to discredit the work of this traditional bone setters, especially in very Rural settings with little or no access to health care. But you know what, most cases that have ended up as amputation in the hospital are as a result of trials and error from this traditional bone setters, in which in many cases they end up compromising the vascular integrity of the affected limbs or body parts leading to ischaemic changes or gangrene of the limb. So after such trials this patients ends up in the hospital at a point where nothing can be salvaged. So it's either they end up with amputation as the only option to keep them alive.
Yes I agree in simple fracture cases this bone setters might do their trial and it works , however not in all instances. They work blindly , no knowledge of an Xray or knowledge of a Doppler scan incase of a vascular injury. Most cases of deformed limbs or disproportional limb discrepancies started from the initial trials and error of this bone setters.
Please let's be guided when we are making some kind of claims

I'm not supporting quacks in any profession but there have been some instances where some were to be amputated and at last were successfully treated by traditional bone setters.

Does kwankwaso obtaining their party forms prevent other candidates from purchasing forms...?


He helped them generate funds or are the 69 forms free? He most likely did it as a backup plan while securing a spot with ndc.


That's how wasteful politicians are by the way with probably looted funds!

I don't even understand them self .Is it that it's very difficult to print more forms or are parties restricted to certain number of forms they can print?

Tenses:
I challenge you

Do not mention Peter Obi and Obidients for 24 hours and see if you will not go into coma.

I dare you.

All the time you guys dey call Atiku greedy man, this and that,call Tinubu all sort of names but you don't want others to call Obi. Can you just tell us the reason?

Moroccoguy:
They believes in Jonathan treatment in which without the support of the south it's not possible, Tinubu as a president is different from Tinubu we know 4 years back. Atiku will only get 25% in the south if Obi is not on the ballot and the work seems more easier for Tinubu if Obi is on the ballot.

That is the simple truth.
If Obi is not on the ballot most if not all obidients will vote for Atiku.

The best and surest way would have been joint ticket of Atiku and Obi but that's in the past now.

oz4real83:
This is the good news we always want to hear about these terrorists, not the one of "they all ran away with bullet wounds"😏. They should all be sent to meet their creator😡

because of the superior firepower of the police... Lol

buygala:
This girl resemble pesin wey fit post Femi preek online, like that yeye girl wey post im friend Alhaji Dangote nyansh that year

lol I don even forget this Dangote story oh. That's the power of internet.

Where 1000ghs take be 157k maybe una just wan hype it to demarket Nigeria as usual.

1000ghs no pass 110k naira

Why are you trying to get yourself into big problem because of politicians that do not care about you. I advise you to delete that statement I'll equally delete it in my quote.

Please be careful, politicians cause doesn't worth losing your freedom

Skepticus:
The Nigerian army need to seize the government as quick as possible. There's a constitutional backing to it. If not, the citizens can form a sovereign take over.

Politicians and the Judiciary are messing the country up

How will they even know what you're saying when majority of them haven't even entered plane let alone of knowing how Nigerians are being treated at Port of entries around the world.

Another one is after you've been allowed to enter then looking for employment your case are always treated differently,where others are being employed you'll be told "sorry there's no vacancy at this moment but you can submit you CV for future opportunities".

Sometimes you feel relunctant to identify yourself as a Nigerian all bcoz of the bad eggs among us.

Some people up their are saying the ratio of criminals to law abiding Nigerians abroad is one: millions but that's not through.

Those you thinks are the good ones when you get closer to them you'll discover that just few of them are actually law abiding and are yet to be busted.

One of the causes is that our societies celebrate riches above integrity, we equate travelling abroad to becoming a billionaire and you'll be mocked if you come back home without becoming one. So it is "get rich or die trying"....

I see no hope in sight coz things are getting worse, maybe until every country shut its door on us. Most Nigeria didn't believe UAE could do that, claiming it's making more money from Nigerians patronage than other countries but we all saw what later happened.

commoditiesnig:
Don’t Be Silly and Ridiculous! For Every One Nigerian in jail/imprisoned in a foreign country, hundreds and thousands of Innocent Nigerians travelling abroad or based abroad are subjected to PROFILING.

Several times I’ve landed in Europe, I’m almost always been put aside at Airport for search by security agents cos of my passport.. while other countries’ citizens just walk away.

E bi like say you no know the shame these people don put us.

Stop supporting criminals!

I like your style. If someone throw gbas you too go throw gbos. Gbos gbas can't be monopolized. You can't be criticizing every other people except your own people.

There's no any Messiah in Nigerian politics.

seunmsg:
The party leader that decides who get the ticket. Like Dickson in NDC.

If you guys know this then why according him the status of Almighty by linking him to every problem in the opposition

Ofunaofu:
If Tinubu possesses such omnipotent power, why is the country in tatters under his administration? Why have hardship and deaths reached unprecedented levels during his tenure?

Are his powers more effective at state capture and emasculating the opposition than at serving Nigerians and advancing the common good?

If you don't examine people critically you'll believe a general misconception that most Nigerians are smart but in the actual sense most of those claiming to be smart are dulllardd, their reasoning can't even be understood, you'll begin to wonder if this set of people have sound mind.

alobright17:
exactly same way APC is using Aisha Yesufu to attack NDC . NDC is so perfect and Robotic to the extent that its members must not complain about anything at all because if they do then it’s APC that made them to complain.

Toosure70:
return or jail the people involved.

I tired for some people reasoning oh,the way people are justifying crime in Nigeria enh! I don't even think there's hope except a miracle.

brain54:
Those two women aren't the same people...


Make una dey lie small small!

lol but the resemblance is there o

Self deceit is real, every political party sees itself as the best.

Antwan99:
Most schools don't have electricity wiring. Because they believe in day schooling.

You make sense, how many public school get light for classrooms in Nigeria. The only places you can see light are principal and VP offices and the staff rooms.
That one self in most cases schools are not even able to pay for the bills.

No drinking and smoking.-both parents

No friends - Both parents

Abi these ones no be habits?

Gbadugbakun:
They should make their execution public like in the military days as warning to those who are towing that path.

All these audio death sentences isn't what we want at a time like this.

And they should do it fast coz their colleague may later think of doing jail breaking or they may later get pardon or clemency.

Imagine and we'll labour put all the blames on the president absorbing ourselves completely.

Sensiblerealist:
That one right there is probably a factor that will push the country to Congo DR territory. I was in my mum's hometown in December and boy! Illegal mining has taken over. Most artisans and small business owners have abandoned their various jobs for Okada riding (transportation of illegally mined lithium)
Where the problem proper lies is that the King, senior chiefs and VIP are benefiting one way or the other either as investors or partners, so they have all kept mum while insecurity is staring at them. Most towns around them have been ravaged by bandits but they are all being greedy. It's just a time bomb

This is nice but it's not good for everyone.

Some women can kill their husband who has billions or multi millions in account if they know his pin. Few men too can do that but it's more on the women's side.

This is simply bcoz most married women want freedom especially if the freedom will multiply their wealth. Ask Bill Gate and co.

Caaz:
I know my husbands password to his phones....down to all his Arm cards. ...cuz I handle 89% of all his monitary transactions.
He knows mine.




I guess the relationship btw couples matters a lot down to understanding.

He's very comfy and free operating my phone's too viz a viz

Honestly I don't know the solution. One thing I noticed about Nigerian is that some/many Nigerians have "Stony" heart many are criminal minded,many doesn't fear the consequences of their criminal acts.The most dangerous criminals are does who doesn't fear to die, these set of criminals are the hardest for security agencies to contain and can only be contained by security agents who have same mind and do not fear of dying.

Forget about politics if a new government comes to power these insecurities will still continue.

The major cause of the insecurities is years of systemic failure and mismanagement by those in power,not today's action. The day you fail an exam is not the day you get your report card, the failure already started from when you refused to attend class,read your notes, refused to ask questions on what you don't understand, etc.

The army or police we are expecting to enter the bush and combat these people, many of them joined the force for survival not for the passion of saving lives and properties. If the system is working, believe me over 60% of those security agents will be in other professions. Then those who really have the mind and passion to serve will have the opportunity to get in and it won't be about connection bcoz it won't be competitive.

To be honest I was also among those over 60% I didn't have the liver to take riffle and entered bush to combat bandit, during my time I wasn't going to road block/check point , I didn't have the liver to combat armed robbers but I'm also not the type that take bribe, so imagine having people like me in the force and be expecting us to enter the forest to combat bandits lol.

Those who even have mind doesn't have the moral.

Conclusively our failed institutions over the years bring us to this mess and it'll also take years before the mess can be cleaned (that's if everyone can sit tight).And not only government responsibility.

Gotocourt:
What do you think is the solution? Our military is understaffed, mobilisation can take almost 48hours. Till police action fails, then military 🤷🏿.

Arming ordinary civilians in such way will do more harm than good.

We what political thugs turn to after arming them.

An Ak47 in your hand makes you feel more powerful and can really change you to a bad person. You can see this even in out security agents

Gotocourt:
Arm rural communities with automatic tools and watch this madness ends 📌💯.

Any rapid deployment of more than 24hrs is a disaster 🤷🏿

In Nigeria politics, opposition are seriously praying that the ruling party fails so that they can have advantage of taking over.

When they take over the ruling party that turned to opposition will start praying and working for the down fall of the government so that they can reclaim power. The cycle continues, so Nigeria politics is not about making the country better is all about personal interest.

If you like rebrand any of these politicians and turn him/her to an angel or Messiah na disappointment and regret go still follow.

It's either about power, money or both

dgr8truth:
The opposition is one of the key reasons we find ourselves in this mess as a country. They have no credible solutions to the myriad of problems we face. If they did, they would have already presented concrete, visible steps they intend to take to solve them. Instead, all we hear are vague statements.

The opposition has failed to hold the government accountable and force it to fulfill its constitutional responsibilities. They seem afraid, more focused on politicking and scheming to grab power—only to squander it. They are simply not serious.

Atiku would be an even worse president. He is self-centered, driven by a desperate ambition to become president, and unwilling to make any real sacrifices. What kind of leader would he be if he cannot even honor the north-south rotational principle that leaders like President Tinubu have disrespected? That kind of intolerance is a dangerous trait. He does not have my vote—not at all.

It’s time we start thinking first and foremost as citizens. We have very little time and few opportunities left to change the direction of this country for the better.

70% abi na 100%
They for do the statistics well.

Unless your firm doesn't need electricity to function.

I remembered when I was operating a small business in Nigeria my " I better pass my neighbour" generator nearly took my life.

I can't even wish such thing for my enemies.

Everytime I keep asking questions on how our government fails to deliver stable and reliable electricity.since 1999 return to democracy.

Imagine how we were jubilating then when Abacha died as if his death would turn Nigeria to America.
