PoliticsRe: I Sense A Positive Shift Among Obidients Regarding President Tinubu by XY23: 12:22pm On Jan 04, 2025
jazzman7711:
The raining of abuse and curses on the President has diminished ever so slightly in recent weeks, as good news after good news pours in through the airwaves....

Am I alone in noticing this softening of Obidients caused by Tinubu's growing......brilliance?

Even their abuse lacks the usual venom, as they come to the jarring reality that this is actually a serious, focused, working president.

It's quite an evolution to behold.

This pacification of Obidients.

I reminds one of the pacification of Okonkwo and his village of Umuofia by the British, in Achebe's Things Fall Apart.
Does it mean they could have after all been driven by the desire to see Nigeria work, rather than hate or pain of election loss as most of you adduced? Let me see your logic.

The day the majority agrees they're all menu served by bad governance rather than having a sit at the table, will be when political sycophancy ends, for our collective good.
PoliticsRe: Abysmal Supply Of Electricity In Gbagada And Environs. What's The Use Of Band A? by XY23: 6:34pm On Dec 17, 2024
Lol. And this is 2024 o, long years after some African countries have solved the problem of electricity. We support despicable politicians (8 years tenure) to perpetuate the rot of our institutions for the kids of the underachieving supporters to inherit.
Meanwhile, the misguided support (ditto: sycophancy) of the unlightened majority empower politicians to build solid future for their own kids in developed societies.
PoliticsRe: 2027 Presidency: PDP Invites Jonathan As Party’s Fate Hangs On NEC by XY23: 5:44am On Dec 14, 2024
The clamour for Jonathan is not out of love for him or Nigeria for that matter. The North is nothing without power or semblance of it through 'indirect control'.
We could only wish the current suffering induced by the government counts for something in the end by at least restructuring Nigeria. That would be the best legacy Tinubu can leave.

Oh, it's no longer a fight between obidients, and PO can't be seen trying to meditate as the leader of obidients. Agbadorians, selective amnesia, and failed logic!
PoliticsRe: Sowore Post Alleged Wiki Leaks Cable Mentioning Afebabalola by XY23: 8:03pm On Dec 08, 2024
It is even an eye-sore to see victims of Nigeria run amock against truth. They keep pretending Nigeria is not as described by men of good conscience. Nigeria's Justice system has always been for the highest bidder.

Bebigiby1:
Nigerians will waste another 4 years if they fall for the trick of participating in another flawed election in 2027.... A revolution that will lead to the restructuring or division of the country is the only way out....
Gbam. Smart people have started preparing for the possibility. A hope that Nigeria will be better under Tinubu is forlorn. It's either a revolution, or something unnatural, or join the Japa crew before 2027. A hale and hearty Tinubu will never lose election in Nigeria, the rest na noise.
PoliticsRe: My Take On David Hundeyin's Patriotism And Nigerians Stupidity by XY23: 5:22am On Nov 26, 2024
Shadomaan7:
The conclusion of the matter.
Slaves do not understand freedom, don't take the bait to try to save them from their delusion. All the voices of reason have always been silenced by the people they're fighting for (check Nigeria's history). It's a long walk to our collective freedom. The psychological warfare has already been won by the oppressors.

PoliticsRe: Edo Governor, Monday Okpebholo Flags Off Construction Of Ramat Park Flyover by XY23: 11:16pm On Nov 19, 2024
kedeojo:
leave the brainless guy to keep saying rubbish. Since 1999 there are be clamour by Edolite for a flyover to discongest that ever busy route. Governors before him all dodge it. When completed it will be a signature project.
You're truly ignorant. Have you been to ikpoba slope before? Someone rightly pointed it out earlier. Now, how will the flyover connect Benin metropolis? You will mention lucky way, then what? Ikpoba slope, which is too narrow and has been the major problem in that route.
This is obviously the kind of government that favours political actors just like Wike's overinflated flyovers for 8 years, yet no meaningful HDI. If he were serious about solving the problem on that route we all know what should be done.

End.

P.S. What Sapele Road by Kada is now, is what Ramat Park needs (similar), if Ikpoba slope can be taken care of. But no, na meaningless projects una always they celebrate.

I'm currently in ondo state.
With what my eyes saw today at different polling unit I think we are far from getting it right.They all believe in collecting money from the highest bidder.
They believe that all politicians are the same.
This country seriously has a lot of work to do regarding voter's education.
Illiteracy, ignorance and poverty has destroy our electoral system.we are in doom.
The ghosts of drastic shift in our value system since 2015 will surely come back to hurt this generation when they get old. Let them be jumping up and down cheering amorality, later they'll realize how they helped push Nigeria to a state of hopelessness. Nigeria's distengration will not be rocket science as people are thinking. When we have helped ourselves destroy it, and it finally loses its flavour; everyone will go home quietly to pick up their rumbles to rebuild.

When will Ipobpigians ever respect others right to choice?
Edo people should brace up to start receiving insults for believing and voting in Mr Monday as their new governor against the wish of ipobpigians terrorists masquerading as obidunce who are not even indigene of the state.
Keep your mouth shut. May what you support get close to your home.

We knew what was at stake in Edo, INEC decided to be shameless. You stay online and be talking rubbish. Anything APC touches turns to ruins. The governor either go the Obaseki way or lose control of his government. People like you could never fathom the hard choices Obaseki had to make just to serve the people. This one will not have peace unless he asserts himself. Obaseki drove them in for 8 years.

Bro, you can't help them. We have a serious problem. It's not about the government, it is the quality of thinking of most Nigerians. They are prepared to serve father and son, which is very possible with foreign intelligence agencies running the show.
PoliticsRe: Reno Omokri Defends Peter Obi, Faults Google On Savannah Bank by XY23: 10:00am On Nov 11, 2024
ElevationD:
Savannah bank was incorporated in 1960 and listed on the floor of the Nigerian stock exchange in 1985.

Read:

https://www.businessjournalng.com/savannah-bank-dead-or-alive/?amp=1

You may also ask about Mr. Jim Nwobodo and why OBJ was accused of politically closing the bank of Nwobodo, was was his then party member is the PDP.
Critical thinking: If I built 2 buildings that housed different branches of Standard Trust Bank (now UBA), would I be wrong to say UBA in that context, in 2024?

Sorry, I quoted the wrong person.

P.S. The more people argue based on hate, the lesser the quality of their thinking and logic.

After due diligence I have had to consciously learn to differentiate progressive Yorubas from this very group on NL. If you notice their value system you'll realize they have one thing in common: Yoruba Muslims. They're just like the touts you see in everyday Lago regardless of education. They love strong men, whom they grovel at their feet, have poor judgement of issues and hate freedom.

Trump that got an unprecedented number of votes across demographics (Muslims, Latinos, Gays, Blacks, Feminists etc). This author found a way to weave American's preference of Trump around religion as is always common with Nigerians. He forgot the thrust of Trump's campaign was Economy, Immigration, Tax policies etc. They think Americans are as primitive as most Nigerians are, who see everything through the lens of religion and tribalism. They are right about one thing, which is that he doesn't rate Africans, and that's exactly why some of us like him. It is the quality of humans thoughts that built America, not magic. Let those who are crying continue.

Very soon US might become visa-free to more African countries that deserve respect. The citizens of Botswana, Seychelles, SA, Cape Verde etc, are not crying about Trump's emergence. They have positive developmental index in common, unlike here were majority see western countries as a ticket out of poverty.

Fix your damn country (where leaders organize national prayers to fix failing national grid). Una eyes go peal.

You're wrong. They're Nigerian kids, Northern kids are in NNPC, FIRS etc. (#copied). They're all victims of Nigeria. The elephant in the room you are all ignoring is keeping minors in detention since August without arraignment. Is that how a criminal justice system should work? Adults can barely feed well, much less kids that have been in detention for about 3 months. If you're not ashamed of Nigeria, then sorry.

Not surprised.....the fact is after years of thinking power was cheap, we are waking up to the cold reality.

I'll leave this post i made earlier




The fact is, if we want power, we got to pay for it at high prices. But most of us don't want to because we won't be able to afford the prices needed to kick start the sector.
You're insanely clever. One thing kept popping up in this article: "estimated billing". You're obviously as mischievous as Tinubu. Pay pay pay, but no regards for operational standards or transparency. In the countries you referenced, is estimated billing the core of their revenue base? What's the instrument of determining who pays what, on each band?

The word 'civil servant' is confusing to you. Go and learn about the principle of wealth re-distribution. Civil servants don't have people dependent on them? They can't boost productivity through financial support? You think the state of the economy today is solely because we don't sell enough oil?
