Bola @officialABAT, your campaign spokesman has admitted that ministers paid billions in bribes to secure their appointments. You appointed them, so who received the money? Nigerians deserve names, not silence.
Am not a fan of President Tinubu but I won't stand for this insolence by a former vice president whom himself is riddled with controversies in his role as the number of two man to continually call Mr president in his first name without his title continually. Whether you like or not, his name is already in history as a president and this continuous disrespect is dragging the country in mud, and worst of all from a former vice president.
madridguy: That Lekan in question must have a very sweet gbola Imagine two women fighting over a man and yet their sisters here in Nigeria don't value us men
God1000: I like the new Zelensky this time, he has become very bold and fearless to confront the lunatic in the oval office
I think he has always been bold, but then he's just been diplomatic before a bully and the fact that Ukraine needs united state to at least hold it own against the lunatic tyrant Putin.
Adblg0610: Is it safe to conclude that, in economic reforms, what Obasanjo sees while sitting down, none of the following experts/ global financial institutions can see it: 1. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala 2. Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi 3. Prof. Chukwuma Soludo 4. Akinwunmi Adesina 5. Anna Bjerde ( World Bank MD) 6. World Bank 7. International Monetary Fund 8. S & P Ratings 9. Fitch’s Ratings 10. Moody’s Ratings If all the above-named financial experts/ institutions have given Tinubu’s economic reforms a clean bill of health, but Obasanjo and the opposition refuse to see the light at the end of the tunnel, then the train has already left the station.
Trying to explain to a delusional textbook economist is plain waste of time. Let the people speak come January
abc115: President Donald Trump said he called Google’s Sundar Pichai to discuss renaming the Atlantic Ocean, but would ‘probably pass’ after the chief executive told him: ‘Please don’t ask us to do that,'” the Washington Post reports.
The New Republic: Trump tried to get Google to rename Atlantic Ocean after him.
The president told a rally audience in South Carolina Wednesday evening that he tried to rename the Atlantic Ocean to “Trump Ocean,” but ultimately decided against it.
“It’s rig and die!” Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, NDC candidate for Delta Central Senatorial District, has issued a fiery warning to anyone planning to rig the 2027 general election. Speaking during a campaign, Omo-Agege declared that anyone caught attempting to manipulate the election would face deadly consequences, insisting that Nigerians would not allow their votes to be stolen. His remarks have drawn attention as political activities intensify ahead of the 2027 polls. What do you think about his strong warning? Should politicians adopt such hardline positions against electoral malpractice?
No be this man dey sing in your mandate we stand sometimes back, abeg this country is just too corrupt and morally decayed. They just jump ship and start singing another tune with days, abeg where is your pride as a human being.
iwaeda: What you said doesn't make sense. In a saner country, police will arrest them if it is not for content creation.
What will ever make sense to the shallow. If you can't get the message in my comment then Jog on, it's meant for those who can decipher the intellect in it not some smarto wannabe.
This is one of the many bad jobs the opposition is doing and won't resonate with right thinking undecided voters. Your strength is the wrong economic policies that's impoverishing most Nigerian and throwing this into their narrative albeit not even related to the coming election is just preposterous and totally mischievous and capable of letting voters stay away from this election rather than go out to exercise their civic right
rossipki: OBASANJO WHERE IS THE $16 BILLION YOU CLAIMED TO USE TO FIX POWER SUPPLY IN NIGERIA?
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT LOOTED AND DESTROYED THIS ECONOMY.
NOW PLAYING SAINT.
OBASANJO SHUT UP!!!!!
OLD MAN THAT REFUSES TO RESPECT HIS OLD AGE!
PDP YOUR PARTY DESTROYED THIS ECONOMY.
TINUBU IS SIMPLY CLEANING UP THE MESS YOU CRIMINALS LEFT BEHIND.
HOW COULD NIGERIA GROW WITH AN ARTIFICIAL TWO-TIER CURRENCY SYSTEM?
WHAT COUNTRY ON EARTH DOES THAT?
COMPANIES WITH CONNECTIONS WERE SIMPLY BUYING DOLLARS CHEAP FROM CBN AND SELLING HIGH ON THE BLACK MARKET. IN ARBITRAGE.
NO PRODUCTION WAS TAKING PLACE, WHILE FUEL SUBSIDIES ATE UP HALF OUR ANNUAL BUDGET.
THAT'S THE NIGERIA YOU PDP CROOKS LEFT BEHIND.
AND YOU SAY TINUBU "DEVALUED THE CURRENCY".
WHAT "CURRENCY"?
WHAT "VALUE"?
ALL HE DID WAS END YOUR PDP MONEY SHARING AMONG THE ELITE, WITH ZERO PRODUCTIVITY OR JOB CREATION.
PLUS EMPTY TREASURY ON TOP.
USELESS.
OH SURE, TINUBU JUST WOKE UP AND SAID "LET ME MAKE NIGERIANS SUFFER, BECAUSE I JUST LOVE TO SEE THEM SUFFER".
NONSENSE.
NOTHING MORE THAN YOU ARE JEALOUS THAT TINUBU IS ACTUALLY SUCCEEDING IN REVIVING THE ECONOMY AND TAKING IT TO HEIGHTS YOU NEVER DID - WITHOUT FUEL SUBSIDY AND WITH A MARKET BASED CURRENCY SYSTEM THAT ENABLES BUSINESSES TO PLAN, STABILISED BY OUR FOREIGN RESERVES NOW APPROACHING $60 BILLION.
MEANING THE CURRENCY IS SOLID NOW, AND INFLATON RATE IS NOW FALLING.
FOREIGN INVESTORS POURING IN NOW BECAUSE THEY CAN SEE WHAT TINUBU HAS DONE.
NO MORE UNPREDICTABLE CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS.
THAT'S THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO FOR ANY ECONOMY - A STABLE CURRENCY.
EVEN IF IT IS "DEVALUED" SO LONG AS IT'S THE SINGLE, STABLE CURRENCY OF THE COUNTRY, COMPANIES WILL COME IN AND PRODUCE THE JOBS THAT WILL ENABLE PEOPLE TO AFFORD A DECENT LIVING STANDARD BASED AROUND THAT CURRENCY.
THEN IN TIME, THE CURRENCY VALUE RISES, BASED ON THE GROWING DEMAND FOR NAIRA AS ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES EXPLODE.
WHICH IS WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
E SHOCK YOU, ABI, OBASANJO?
SAME OLD OBASANJO.
ALWAYS WANTS TO BE THE ONE SEEN AS "THE BEST".
TINUBU IS SHOWING THAT HE IS BETTER THAN YOU. GROWING THE ECONOMY THE WAY OTHER GREAT ECONOMIES GREW THEIRS. LIKE SINGAPORE, INDIA, CHINA. ETC.
BASED ON REAL VALUE, NOT FAKERY.
WAS IT NOT LAST WEEK IMF RELEASED THE LIST OF FASTEST GROWING ECONOMIES AMONG THE MAJOR COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD?
NUMBER 1 INDIA.
NUMBER 2 CHINA
NUMBER 3 NIGERIA.
SHOULD I POST THE LINK?
DARE ME!
NONSENSE!!
NA WETIN DEY PAIN YOU, OBASANJO!
THAT'S WHY YOU CAME OUT WITH THIS!
One of the lamest epistle of the year. All jargons, no substance.
nairavsdollars: That is the truth but OBJ also laid a poor foundation in 1999
What are you talking about? . His administration negotiated with paris club of lenders to significantly reduce our debt portfolio while he boosted the crude oil export. He may not get everything right, but he didn't get so many things wrong.
nairalanda1: (Imma going to be controlversial here)
The only way to properly fund the police is to change the way our economy is run, and to widen the tax base.
Nigerian leaders 40 years ago, and Nigerian leaders today do not want to do that, as that means making hard choices, actually fighting corruption , both of which are unpopular.
Fighting corruption does not mean arresting the big men, it also means arresting the small petty corrupt little men and women. That is why Nigerians do not really like fighting corruption
And changing the economy means a generation where most of the population works long and hard making industrial products for export. No one wants that, everyone wants to live well. But that is how your china and south korea and even Japan did that, One to three generations did the 3 d's work to make those countries prosperous and industrial...and able to fund evenryting.
And widening the tax base is also very unpopular.
As a result we don't have the money to fund the police, and to fund things like the supporting structures for a good police force...froensices, ctv, records, traning, etc.
That is why 40 years since this brave man spoke up, nothing has changed
But yet in that 40 years the cost of governance increase on yearly basis. Councilors and local government chairmen are gifted luxury cars and in some cases jeep for doing nothing. And that's just on the lowest level compared to what your state governor, either incumbent or past get paid from tax payers money and "babaly"(pun intended) the federal level where the day light robbery is hugh and alarming. Our tax system may not be progressive as we want but it's never retrogressive. Every common man pay tax indirectly passed on my manufacturer or suppliers to them, and not to talk of the PAYE system we all know about. The government has to do more than what's we currently have or doing if you want committed police like Mr Alozie in this country. We concentrate more in corrupt riddle ministries and agencies and we forget the welfare of our service men and woman who risk their lives or daily basis.
ogododo: INSECURITY: “You were told to stop travelling at night, after 9pm” Nigerian Presidency.
President Tinubu’s spokesperson @aonanuga1956 has accused the Nigerian media of exaggerating insecurity, while blaming Nigerians for ignoring warnings against travelling after 9pm

Sincerely am not surprised that this government is a joke. I told some of my guys then before President Tinubu ascendency to his present position that he will not improve us economically, security wise and would align with hilarious character like his spokesperson put there.
Most Nigerian polithiefcians are evil irrespective of political affiliation. APC is finally nailing the coffin now, but many in the past have provided wood for the coffin. Nigeria as a country is flawed with systemic corruption which leads to gross undeveloped and a selected few living large while the others wallow in perpetual poverty.

Another confused soul aligning passionately with the textbook policies that is already taking money out of the pocket of the people and will eventually cripple them if allowed to continue. Abuse, baba for all I care, he's not suffering or will he ever suffer before he dies but saying the obvious. Tinubu is a monumental failure and mustn't allow to continue for another four years
AMINDA: Onanuga or Segun Sowunmi will be dispatched to insult Obasanjo as they did MKO Abiola. Tinubu is governing without any human face like he were Pharaoh. He speaks about "bold reforms" and "temporary pains" but himself, his family and cronies continue to live in affluence with 80-vehicle long convoys.
How do know how to double your likes, I would have. You're spot on, and hit it directly on the head. Tinubu is a monumental failure and the guy that can quoting Fitch rating and Brentwood institute or something is so wrong.
Jakarta: Don't totally agree, education no go ever be scam. But, honestly an an employee your chances of being wealthy without one form of corruption or the are very slim. Na business dey create wealthy men pass.
He said education and salary. The billionaire entrepreneurs today are mostly educated, so education is never scam.
Onewazobia: So was said about Goodluck, Buhari, Tinubu yet the country relatively remain the same
U must be hearing from another realm. I have and will never support Tinubu. He gave away my respect and followership when he was the governor of Lagos. And for Buhari, yes I supported him though I have reservation especially the senseless killings in the North when he lost his previous election but the Jonathan made it easy for such conclusion.
bestofnollywood: Its sheer ignroance to associate every politician with stealing, do you know what OGD is worth in his private practice before politics?
Am not linking every politician to stealing, am saying OGD is not a saint. And if you talk about Kresta Laurel and his hotels around Ogun and it's environs, I still maintain that OGD is not a saint and has corruptly enrich himself just like most of the political leaders in the state.
helinues: Oya, he don carry tribe enter the matter.
Show me just one single unpopular opinion of yours that came to reality.
In every one, I will post 3 . 1-3
I dare you
Are you sure, you're not some cheap weed or something because I remember you started by throwing tribe into all these by referring to my location or something. What you even wrote up there about unpopular opinion no make sense to me, abeg, make me understand wetin u dey yearn
helinues: Vex for telling you to relocate from where it's making you to be sounding slow. Seh na Permanent resident you get for there ni
Am in my state, born and bred here and the son of the soil. Ooh, you think all Yorubas or lagosian supports T pain or the agenda of some confused liars to bring back another four years of economic recklessness and mismanagement. Ko joor
