Many Yoruba's thought it would be 'business as usual' That it was now their turn to chop and clean mouth. What they did not understand was that Buhari and his goons have emptied the account over the last 8 years. There's nothing left. Even our oil for this year has already been sold. CBN can no longer lend money to govt. Everything don scatter scatter.
That's what happens when the so called President has an attitude of 'Na Statistics we go chop' and educated people still go and vote for him.
Anyway sha, na martial music me I dey wait for

What did he do for children when he was a minister?

2elliot:
Over 12 bags. The hunger in the land no concern me. I am from an oil producing place. So, I am comfortable. I have a job that earns me around #400k; and I also have another work that pays me over #350k every month for doing absolutely nothing. All these are aside the allowances and other bonuses I get. I was recently paid some money by Shell for damages as their proposed new gas pipeline passed through my land.
I am not married and do not plan to do so as most Nigerian girls are useless. I still live in my family house with my mom in her big house, so I spend even a lot less. I want to focus on making more money and do my music for pleasure. Nothing concerns me with Nigeria and her madness. I have minimised my comments on the politics section. Agbadorians can stand on Bats manhood for all I care, I go survive. As far as oil and gas still flows in my place, I won't be broke.

You are wise beyond your years.
I simply don't understand why any Nigerian man under 40 would consider marriage. Spend your 20's and 30's building up wealth and enjoying a wide range of women.Get married in your 40s when you are established and can afford everything that goes with raising a family, without stress

If the LP aspirant doesn't lose his deposit, I am joining Obidients... ... OK I no go join Obidients lai lai but I will think of a suitable forfeit.

market woman that is fluent in their local tongue over a tested man that has graced the boardrooms of some of the largest companies in Nigeria?
Truly Nigerians are the cause of their own problems

So you would prefer a motor park tout or

I am an Edo man, and my inital reaction was 'What nonsense is this?'
However after watching the video, I must admit there are some interesting facts hat have been raised. I will definitly be looking to investigate this further.

Wisdomclass1:
I'm not an igbo bt I have this to say

"Nobody will stand by you..." after insulting the southern intelligence, mostly of the igbos and us the Niger Deltans, you're now using your propaganda to call this riot a tribal thing. So because Tinububu is from d South, we should continue like this ?

We will match with the North. We stand with the North. Take ur tribal narratives elsewhere. Tinubu must go... infact, let d army do d job for us.

If you are too dumb not to understand how Nigeria REALLY works go ahead and join any root. The North NEVER riot against their own
. If Tinubu is brought down tomorrow, who do you think will replace him?
The only protest I will support is one for total restructuring of this country.

Big Fat No!!

The North have NEVER joined any riot against a northern leader (1989 SAP riot, 1993/94 June 12 riots, 2021 End Sars). The North only know how to riot when it's against a southern president.

I don't like Tinubu, I will NEVER support him, but I also will NEVER join any march against him, even though he and his SW people betrayed the SS.

Useless judgement. So if government suddenly announces thar the price of rice is N20000, do you think any trader will actually sell at that price, if it costs them 40000 to import the rice?

Save Nigeria group is only active when the President is not a Yoruba person
Arewa only have mouth when the President is not a Northerner.
Tribalism has always been the worst problem in Nigeria

Aboki did not see hunger for 8 years under Buhari, it's now they see hunger. Na lie! i did not, and can never vote Tinubu, but I will NEVER join any protest agaisnt him. it's only when it's a southerner in office that the North suddenly know how to protest. They did it aginast GEJ, and now want to do the same agaisnt Tinubu. We should leave them to it, by 2027 maybe they would have learnt a leason and wil not rush to vote 'Muslim-Muslim' ticket

G00dharddick:



SS and se won't join this protest. This protest is simply for the West and north. Nothing concern the rest regions otherwise the west will tag it an igbo protest sponsored by Obi to rubbish Tinubu govt. So let the protest be strictly for the West and north only

May you remain blessed all your days
Nobody in SS and SE should join any rubbish protest. We did everything we could to change this country for the better in the last election and the SW and North said a big fat no. Now let them enjoy their Muslim-Muslim 'Na statistics we go chop' Presidency. Shebi they said it will benefit them and their families!

LEGALSER:


E don dey start, e go soon spread.

As long as it only spreads in the North, no wahala. During Endsars where their Imams not saying 'Protest is Haram'? Suddenly they know how to protest.

The Thunder that will fire these Abokis' is still doing push ups, it will come soon!

Stupid people. For 8 years they did not know how to protest. Was this not the same Niger state that Bandits were occupying multiple LG's, they did not protest.
Now it's a Southerner in power suddenly Aboki knows how to protest. When they were voting muslim-muslim ticket they did not know. They should all go and sit down. We shall suffer this suffer together for the next 8 years. Nigerians must finally get sense, by fire by force

coputa:
The worse civilian government is better than the best military government

Military government is synonymous with dictatorship

Go and research what the exchange rate was under Abacha. What the price of foodstuffs and fuel were. The military was MASSIVELY better, and we urgently need them back

Did Jesus ever mandate paying of tithe? Everything about tithe is in the old testament, it's all a big con used by fake pastors to Rob the gullible

nairalanda1:
State police cannot work in NIgeria.

Now, before you start calling me anti-progress, and anti-People, and fulani lackey, I believe that every state should have a police force. But in NIgeria, we got two issues

1.Most of the states do not have the funding to fund a properly equipped police force. Yes, the security votes they give governors could help, but to form a police force, with working equipment, forensics, training, and well armed is going to take more than just security vote.

Our current VP when he was governor used his security vote one year to buy 48 hilux trucks for the security forces. NOw imagine he was fuding state police. THat means after buying the hilux, he has no cash left over. OK.o. And value of naira has fallen since 2013.

2.Tribal and religious bias. SO what happens when there is tribal and religious conflict, and the police is majoirty from one side of the tribe? SOme people can still remember the pogroms of the 1960's. Police could do nothing. MOst of them were from one side.

ANyway, until states are ready to tax more of their gdp, and until we wake up and realize why we need fairness, we are not ready for state police. (Splitting the country won't solve the problems either)

You have raised some valid points, but these can all be addressed:
1.Most of the states do not have the funding to fund a properly equipped police force. Yes, the security votes they give governors could help, but to form a police force, with working equipment, forensics, training, and well armed is going to take more than just security vote.
--The FG budget would be drastically reduced as a lot of the functions will now be carried out by state police, so basically the FG can 'rebate' funds to the states for policing

2.Tribal and religious bias. SO what happens when there is tribal and religious conflict, and the police is majoirty from one side of the tribe? SOme people can still remember the pogroms of the 1960's. Police could do nothing. MOst of them were from one side.
---State police does not mean the end of Federal police. Many countries have multiple levels of law enforcement from town to state to Federal The Federal police would still exist and would mainly be dealing with crimes across state boundries, economic crimes and prevention of wide scale break down in law and order. If there were other such tribal based riots, it would be the Federal police that would have the responsibility to maintain law and order and protect innocent people

Basically the current situation is simply not working. Effective law and order must start from the grassroots upwards.

You were 69 last year, a civil service director. This means you were educated, aware and also blessed with the experience of age. Despite all that you left your house last may, in the sun, to go and line up and vote for a man, with no primary school mates, no secondary school mates, no university class mates. A man who said 'Na statistics we chop?' . A man that when was asked how he would deal with insecurity replied 'El Rufai will take that question'
Would you as a civil service director have appointed such a person in the civil service? At your age you allowed tribal sentiments to rule your head and now your complaining. Sorry it's too late to complain, we must stand, sit, lie down on his mandate. When 2027 comes, then we can arrange ourselves again

Animegirl:
Words can't express how I weep for this country; my future lies in the hands of this nation.

As a young lady striving for success, it seems to be getting harder each day. Things are becoming more expensive, with an increase in the dollar exchange rate.

Life now is about surviving, not living.

You can make it in Nigeria but you need to think outside the box.

Birniwa:
This won't do any magic, even if does, trust me the dollar will rise again faster than Usain Bolt.
The thing is, banks are not the only ones hoarding dollars, literally everyone does it in Nigeria. Think of BDCs, NNPC, politicians, and recently Nigeri'as business moguls such as Dangote.

If CBN does not arrest this issue wholly and proffer a realistic working solution, we will watch the naira set another all-time low price in a few days to come.

Bros, even small one person business have started converting their excess niara to dollars. Confidence in the Niara is seeping away at an alarming rate, and as that continues more people will be looking to keep their wealth in dollars, which will push the Niara down even more

If you have savings, if you know anyone who has savings, please start to move it into dollars. Niara is going to crash big time. Investors and business people have lost confidence

Chi, I lost a big bet on this!!

Na Usyk I do hope on next month or 2024 would have started quite bad for my betting!

Obaseki has won every battle he's waged. The man is a tested fighter. I have no doubt he'll win this battle

30.9 billion to renovate 40 schools, works out at almost 1 billion per school!

Chai what kind of renovation is that? Abi an NASA telescope they wan install for all the schools?

I think we all now that each school be lucky to see N10 Million, the rest na for their pocket!

Nigeria we hail thee

This is what you get when you elect a president who said 'Na statistics we go chop

beekind:
Like I said, can a couple plan a wedding within a budget of 1 million naira ?
This will include, bride prices, clothes, feeding of guests e.t.c.

You people really need to ask proper questions if you want correct answers

Where is the wedding being held? A wedding in Ilorin or Asaba, will be cheaper than a wedding in Abuja or Lagos
Where is the reception planned?
Roughly how many guests
Is it Traditional and Church, Traditional and Registry, Church only, Registry only, Islamic Wedding...?

If you supply all these details, then you will get more accurate answers

A million curses on you!!

Only a totally cursed and disease ridden soul would still be promoting ethnicity over capacity in 2027. Have people not suffered enough since 2015?

Totally delusional

When people shout 'North this' or 'South that' its mostly always for their own selfish interest. For the man on the street who cares which CBN office is where. What we care about is the Banks are properly regulated so we don't wake up one day and our life savings have vanished, as used to happen in the past.
Who cares where FAA is regulated, as long as planes are not dropping from the sky like used to happen before.
it's only the selfish bigots thinking of their own interests that raise all these base sentiments. It's time for Nigerians to ignore them

Sultan moaning that Muslim-Muslim ticket is not delivering for Muslims. He should chill. We go all chop breakfast for the next 3 plus years

highchief1:
nigeria will not be fixed by people that have impressive cvs.Go and look at ayade cv.then compare it with his performance.

So should we be rules by motor park touts? Just because some people failed to live up to their resumes, does not alter the fact, that people who have significant achievements in their professional life, are more likely to be successes in their political jobs.
