You don't call this one empowerment. There's nothing bad sending touchlight to the security people in his domain but why make a celebration and waste money printing his name and whatever?

That does not make any sense. But if truly he's called this one an empowerment program. Then, there's something wrong somewhere

They're very free to have the heart attack. They can take it, it's not sold.

My people say na Tulumbu cause am.

All their problems are always caused by Tinubu. I wonder if Tinubu even have their time.

Wow! It's the Russian plan to add about 1001 more satellites in the next 10 years for me.

When will we have such projections in this country? I'm sure there are no plans for satellites launching in the 2026 budget. We need all these ideas in the government pls. This is 2026, we need to move up places.

Why does he not kill himself, why the father? Or is he himself banned from going straight to heaven if he dies at that place? Why is it that it is only the father that should be killed to enter Paradise? Such a clown!

In all of this, there is this one language I hate to hear. "They will GIVE ME TICKET". Tickets are not given in elections. They are contested. The moment you lose interest in contesting for ticket in an election, you are as good as being a defective or defeated politician.

How then do you carry your followers along? that you are so unpopular to the extent of asking that ticket be given to you! If it is sure for you, you will gather your people, campaign, and win the ticket.

Anyways, I wish you the best of luck. Keep hoping and keep dreaming.

These are the data bandits that this government unleashes on Nigerians every time its actions are called into question. Nigeria is a leading crude oil producer and exporter, with four refineries and a much larger economy. What exactly is the basis for the above comparison?

I guess you're much tired of driving into the filling station and driving out in 5mins!

Those of you advocating for subsidized fuel, why did you think we were experiencing fuel scarcity in Nigeria prior to removal of subsidy? It is simply because saboteurs like you would buy from Nigerian government to sell to Nigerians but end up taking them across the border to sell at higher rate in the neighboring countries that were not subsidizing their own fuel, thereby short-changing you. All the fuel they were supposed to make available in their filling stations were being sold in some other African countries and that way you get to the filling stations and queue for long hours for the few available fuel from the ones that choose not to take their own across the borders.

rickpat:
Is fuel 1,120 in this naija?

But why is it that you people just rush to comment without reading through?

saintopus:
I think monthly payments for rent should be the norm. In the early 80s and 90s it used to be monthly I don't know how greed eventually took over and we started the annual payments for house rent

It will get worse if you advocate for monthly current payment

Memphis357:
Bola Tinubu is the source of ALL the problems in Nigeria. His politics is archalc, w!cked, & d!rty. This was Jan 2012 at Ojota Lagos. He sponsored a bunch of CSOs against GEJ. Fuel was hiked from ₦65 to ₦87 when Bola Tinubu decided to shut down the country for 2 weeks.
Now that fuel subsidy has been removed, where are those tribalistic, hypocritical and sentimental f00ls that were calling for Goodluck Jonathan's removal? Why aren't they protests now that fuel prices are over 1000% higher than 2012?

Story story 😂😂. You can go ahead and document all those ones in your story book, we don't care! Tinubu is the president and that is the reality, period!

Watianoengineer:
How can Igbos expect nigerians to vote out a president that command respect all around the globe for the untested Peter Obi. Nonsense.


Tinubu will defeat any opposition coalition, we sane Nigerians stand by him

You can see that again. When you are big, you are big. And there's nothing anybody can do about it.

And what stops the same state government from using the same fund to establish production factories and getting the so called book haram members employed , if they love them that much.

Well, I know their government is at liberty to do whatever they think is best for themselves and their people but they really need to sit down and think through most of their decisions.

The southern governors are on massive infrastructural development journey, which, in turn, is expected to make their region enticing, economically. But my people in the north are busy rehabilitating boko haram with the same funds! It is well.

richiemcgold:
I agree that Papa Ajasco is a copyrighted name which he can't use personally. But I disagree with the part of the agreement where he must seek official approval from WAP before accepting advert jobs. That's not a good agreement.

Modified:
Those quoting me don't understand my point. My opinion is based on what I would've done if I were in his shoes. I don't have to use the name for advert jobs, I will only maintain the same appearance of Papa Ajasco in every adverts I do. It is the name that is copyrighted, not my appearance.

That particular name, costume and character has been copywrited and as such, for him to accept an advert, he would not be able to use any of those. However, he would only be able to use his own name or any other character he adopts.

But don't forget that any advert that will feature him would want to feature papa ajasco and not his personal name or any other character. And that way, his personal name would not sell or attract the kind of value that will be that meaningful.

In the final analysis, I would still blame him for being broke because as an adult, he was supposed to know that nothing lasts forever. Even as a civil servant, people still make a headway and plan for their old age

DaddyJapan:
About 1 in 3 people in the UK earn less than £1,500 per month after tax and NI contributions/

And how much does that come to every hour? Because I know they earn per hour in the UK and not per month as it is obtainable here.

There's no way anybody would compare UK to Nigeria, just to convince me that Nigeria is any better.

Countless number of people earn less than 100k in Nigeria but I'm sure nobody, who works in the UK earna less than GBP1500, which is an equivalent of about N2.9M. that's the minimum! So, drawing comparison and using the fuel as the basis, 2.9m is 100k x 29. As long as you're not buying fuel at the rate of #1,232 x 29, you're better off in the UK. Again, you have access to mortgage, car loan, and others perks, provided you're working.

What percentage of Nigerian working class has access to all these things? Even the civil servants who work with the Nigerian government.

All this gambler cleric

Do you mind telling us the status of Honduras next election?

That one is too far sef. He should tell us the two candidates that will contest in America's next election and who will win.

I don't blame him, I blame his gullible sheeps

SmartPolician:
Did he use his personal money to do it?

This is one nonsense question I hate to see. Nobody in his right senses will ask this stupid question. Is he appointed into office to come and use his personal money to work for the people?

What about countless people that have the allocation, yet can not deliver the dividends of democracy to their people.

People hate any politician who performs and I don't know why. But if they're not performing, you would still complain that they're not performing.

What exactly do you people want?

tasalanoni:
That's an extremely reckless and uninformed assertion to make. The Buhari administration rolled out different schemes aimed at achieving local sufficiency but the question is "How much of it got to the farmers?" The funds were looted by the same people who were charged with the responsibility of dispensing it. Farms inputs that were to be distributed to farmers had "NOT FOR SALE " boldly written on the bags ended being sold by the very same people.
They rich commodity traders mopped up every grain in the market at harvest to store and sell later for bigger margins even at the expense of farmers who were struggling to pay off debts incurred during the farming season.

I disagree with you sir.

I have not talked about the farming instruments extended by Buhari government to the farmers to achieve sufficiency. Whether those things got to the farmers or sold in the market all bothers on corruption within the government and that's a story for another day.

What I said was that Buhari had the lofty idea of encouraging our local farmers to grow our own food and reduce reliance on food importation by placing a ban on importation of some food items, especially rice and corn, which forms the majority of the foods we eat in this country.

Forget the government intervention on tools. Going to the farm to cultivate and then bringing the product of your own labour to the market for good cash, and in a market where there demand for your products is in itself, a motivation.

Before the ban, nobody ate local rice. So, it's an opportunity for them to improve and prove themselves that they could actually grow what we eat.

But greed took the better part of them and they capitalized on the fact that we could no longer turn to imported rice and they moved up prices beyond our reach.

I could remember, a paint of foreign rice used to be N700. It went up as high as N8,000 because they knew we had no option. That's when they started telling us that the cost of production was high.

The cost that was not high when it was competing with the foreign rice in the market that it was even sold cheaper than foreign rice just to encourage us to buy.

Farmers should rather come together to produce on a large scale so they can enjoy economies of scale. That way they can bring down the prices of their production and they can sell to the masses at a reasonable price.

Come to think of it, foreign rice would come by the sea, incurring logistics, shipping and customs duties in the process, and something that is produced in this country and moved from the farm to the market will be more expensive than the one that has crossed the sea. You too check it now.

Wow! If you're big, you're big.

Anybody who is not comfortable with this news is free to relocate to Dubai or Iran .

Hmmm Nigerian criminals!

Why is it that the pattern of crime and diaspora criminals are always the same. Once a person is arrested for a particular crime, you already know where it's coming from.

Can't people do legit things for survival?

The rice farmers should not even say anything. Former president Buhari did everything possible to make sure they're okay by placing an embargo on rice importation.

He actually wanted us to produce what we eat. But trust my greedy Nigerian farmers now. A bag of rice we were buying for N8,500 quickly moved to N30,000 during his first term and climbed to about N80,000 before the end of his second tenure.

Would we say that Buhari did a bad thing by trying to upgrade the farmers and also encouraging Nigerians to patronize the local farmers?

They caused the president to bring back the importation of rice because the farmers held all of us by the jugular just because the former president tried to encourage them.

Staging a sit at home as a protest is somehow like going on hunger strike. I hope the indigenous and the other tribe guys around do not see it as opportunities to step in and hijack their businesses before they wake up.

Sit at home ko, sit at work ni.

A big lesson to those who run their mouth carelessly. I like what the judge did here. If you must allege, be ready to defend.
Note , using the word "allegedly" does not exonerate you from the consequences of your utterances.

Oh yes! That "allegedly" must be substantiated.

This is what I've always told our people. It is better you just read to entertain yourself or skip an indicting post no matter how tempted you are.

If you post an unfounded allegation against someone online and God wants to disgrace you, the person (mostly influential figure) has your time, you'll regret ever doing data subscription on that smart phone through which you committed the crime.

She came in to Nigeria, spewed rubbish and flew to the US, thinking she's insulated from the consequences of her actions. Little did she know that she could only run but could not hide.

Same with that girl who accused one of PSquare guys of raping someone. She's now eating her watery beans in one of the Nigerian correctional service centers (according to the news).

I'm glad this is even brought to the media as it will serve as deterrence to others like her,

Fake news will not take you anywhere. It only puts you in a difficult situation.

Jonathan built the Abuja-Kaduna railway, while Buhari built the 2nd Niger bridge among other infrastructure projects by both presidents.

Meanwhile, when are you sharing the APC manual for using pictures of roads to pay for the subsidy forced on Nigerians due to the corruption in APC's oil sector?

That subsidy forced on Nigerians by APC rogues must be over N1,000 now, don't you think

You're just too funny. Haven't you seen how you're struggling to point out only one project each executed by the two of them. And you're comparing them to someone that has more than 10 legacy projects scattered all over the regions at the same time, your own ingrate region inclusive.

Abeg park well

LegendHero:
You mean all the road constructions being done by the federal government in all region is nothing?

Even Atiku go tell you say e no send you think kind errand. No one that is not visually impaired will say this government is doing nothing on roads.

Bros, I don't expect you to waste your time dignifying that clown with a response.

madridguy:
What if the hospital is under the state governor?

Let it be under the local government chairman, the management of the hospital, right from the chief medical director are all clueless to the extent they can not make provision for illumination in the hospital.

I dare say that such a hospital can not be serious enough to handle emergency care or have oxygen available when required. Something as basic as light, they can not provide.

There are some villages you enter today, you would need to look well at night to know they have not been connected to electricity because they at least have solar lights to lighten up the entire village.

I can't blame the government here, it's the responsibility of the management of the hospital.

Galactics:
And some people that are hell bound are telling us to relax, that Tinubu is fixing Nigeria.

Some people are just funny!

Tinubu will go into the hospital to provide generator backup for them even when the hospital generate money from patient treatment and have administrator who works and earn a salary in the same hospital!

Some people might even ask Tinubu to come sweep their bedroom.

Malagans:
In your own little way, how have you improved the lives of the people around you?

It's always easier for some of you to detect other people's faults. But if u were Oyedepo, you would do worse.

Be informed that Oyedepo is also an employer of labour, massive employer at that. Also note that he's not the government and hasn't held any political position before

So, in your own little mind now, you've written something meaningful by bashing the guy for saying the obvious? How many people has he employed apart from those working for him in that Covenant University and the church workers? This is a university that doesnt serve the interest of his congregation, even when they're the ones contributing the money for the establishment and running of the said institution. Do you know how many people Dangote has employed? How many people has Otedola, BUA, Fola Adeola and Dantata etc employed? Are they in government and how many of them have ever been in government before?

Do you know that completing that Ark might have gulped tens of billions, if not hundreds? How many people would it serve?

Do you even know that the educational and other services he provides now are being the reach of the common man, even when some of them are stakeholders.

That's how many of you celebrate mediocrity.

I am a Christian, but a real and practical one. That we're Christians doesn't mean we should be foolish. It also doesn't mean we should not condemn anything that's bad.

aariwa:
Tinubu affidavits states he attended a secondary that was built 6 years after date school was built on affidavit and he also claimed he used same( non existent certificate) to gain admission into university of Chicago.. imagine such crime on American soil and that was what the great Gani Fawehimi of blessed memory ( he was the person that started this case including the drug case in 2001 when tinubu was governor) sadly since he died no Nigerian had ever had the passion to pursue the case except make useless noise online now senate have legalized the crime after multiple Ghana must gos probably. If Gani was still alive he would have probably arranged a one on one meeting with the FBI director kash Patel through a Petition over this case and the drug case but the people we have today are only Online tigers. God bless the soul of Gani Fawehimi @Racoon

You're happy to call some people online tigers but you lack the self will and qualifications to step in and continue from where Gani Fawehinmi stopped!

So, what do you call yourself in this circumstance?
