They have not run out of ideas. Those who say these things are not informed of the mess.

Be patient. PDP had 16 years. It was PDP that started defending the naira. It was during PDP that subsidy billionaires emerged. It was during PDP that kidnapping and terrorism started. It was during PDP that people like Atiku stole national assets for personal use. It was during PDP that refineries collapsed completely. It was during PDP that many who are making noise on nairaland today were born.

Those of us who witnessed military rule and PDP knew that the practice that started with PDP was going to lead us to doomsday.

I sincerely pray Bola Tinubu will continue to find the will to do the right thing.

No, their resignation will not confer presidential legitimacy on those who lost the election. They have no solutions. The solutions Atiku mouths reeks of blatant ignorance and lack of intelligence.

If Atiku stole national assets as you alleged, is it not foolish for APC not to have prosecuted him successfully since 2015, and for Obasanjo to have failed to prosecute him in his second term?

PDP is a private business friendly capitalist party that sold refineries before feudal Yar’Adua reversed it to please uniformed labour unions and socialists for credibility after the Iwuruwuru INEC elections that made him president. Thankfully the sale of the petrochemicals units was not reversed by clueless and irresponsibly corrupt Yar’Adua. The same story for Virgin Atlantic and Nigeria Air.

Atiku’s solutions are alternatives from the capitalist perspective to the wobble and fumble socialist agenda of Tinubu.

emkz:
Yes.

For many years, we have been living in a bubble. We subsidized the consumption by the rich. Our refineries have not been producing. There was pervasive insecurity. Oil theft was rife. Chinese were stealing from us. We started handing out dollars to people for reasons that don't make sense. The subsidy was consistently being abused by people who claimed it and still took the products across the borders. Local fuel consumption was inflated. There were no investments in critical infrastructure. Questionable billionaires emerged following the start of the 4th republic. The bought banks and no one knows the source of their incomes. Industries completely collapsed and religion became rife.

Infact, we started borrowing to pay salaries and subsidies. People like Professor Usman Yusuf in NHIS used their positions to rob the nation. Today, they are sudden moralists for a better Nigeria.

What Tinubu is doing is an attempt to refocus things so that the pains will not be even more in the future. Tinubu demonstrates the boldness many before him lacked. We can see some improvements in certain areas. For example, after the kidnap of the Nabeeha family and the killing of Nabeeha herself, we can see how Wike and Co swung into action and have arrested the masterminds. Our military chiefs are not talking too much and are doing the job.

I recall when they started partitioning roads in Lagos for BRT. As soon as the buses were rolled out, no one criticized Tinubu again. So the suffering we are currently facing are pains that will pass.

We only call on Tinubu to go after the sponsors of terrorism, banditry and rogue businessmen inflating prices. We also call on governors to show workings. It is evil for PDP governors to be attacking the president when they should be worried and working harder for their people.

As a people, let us put the same pressure on the governors, representatives and senators as we put on the president.

If the elections hold again, I'd still throw my weight behind Tinubu. Atiku had his time, and he had nothing to show for it beyond plundering national assets to cronies. He is one of the architects of the current mess and should take responsibility. He also lacks understanding of presidential processes. Peter Obi is just a revolt against the status quo and people conveniently forgot he was a governor as well and Anambra did not improve.

Any sincere Nigerian would make suggestions to help the nation.

Sincerely u just proved dat ur brain has been completely swamped for cow dung 💯 percent progressed to cow dung sir!!

My question here is that is it not the same APC party that had Buhari as president. During the time of Buhari we were told to be patient after they spent the first 4 years blaming the Jonathan administration for everything. We are suppose to be consolidating on the gains, if there was any, of the past administration of the same party, and not for a worsening situation like we are having at the moment.

Whoever became president of Nigeria these problems would have manifested. Of the 3, Tinubu was and remains the most capable of solving the problem, if he can’t none of the 3 can…certainly not Peter Obi. My problem is that he seems to be back tracking on subsidy. The medicine needs to be swallowed. People need to change their habits, a poor man has no business driving a 5 liter SUV, poor Nigerians have no business, eating bread made with imported flour, eat akara and ogi like our fathers made with local farmed ingredients, poor people have no business using imported hair, poor people have no business consuming staples that are imported. My problem is that unless we feel the pain we will not change and I am beginning to worry that Tinubu is backtracking because of the pain….the pain needs to be felt for people to change their habits.

Tinubu did not create this problem, Buhari and jonathan did.

Whoever became president, Nigeria would have fallen and Petrol prices would have gone up resulting in inflation..it was unavoidable. All 3 candidates said they would remove subsidy and float the Naira. We were borrowing to subsidize petrol, we borrowed so much that the oil we produce in future has already been sold. The Chinese had stopped lending us money years ago. There is no money. If Obi or Atiku tells you today they would have removed sibsidy gradually, ask them where would they have gotten the money to continue the subsidy?

We cannot continue with our penchant for imported goods….this is exactly what Peter obi has been preaching that we need to move from consumption to production. This is how moving from consumption to production looks like, you have to make imported goods so expensive that we are forced to look inwards. When did bread become part of the diet of a poor Nigerian? If you must eat bread produce your flour locally!,,

Heavy is the head that wears the crown. The job of a good leader is to take the right decisions and stick to it. He said he asked for the job, now he has got the job, he needs to see it to the end. There will be pain, there will be suffering but thre has been pain and suffering since 1984 and it lingered because we did not sustain the reforms. Tinubu needs to sustain the reforms even if it costs him his second term, it is the only way Nigeria can move forward. Again I repeat we need to change our habits and the only way people change is through pain.

That is what we usually hear everytime there is hardship. This too will pass.

Lifeinlight:
FYI, Nigeria hasn't experience this kind of hardship before. The only exception is the south east during the Biafra war and they later bounced back much better.

Where is Tinubu getting money to pay for subsidy now?

Ayo25:
💯. It is still BAT until 2031. As usual with BAT his detractors always have a semblance of victory at the initial stage, but BAT wins in the end.

Some of us expected this temporary period of hardship so it comes to us as nothing.

If the elections were to be reconducted tomorrow, I will still not vote Atiku òr Obi but BAT. Those who are mouthing off about warning us about Tinubu can still not explain to us what there candidates would have done differently at this period if they were the one.

The hardship and inflation in the country now is hardly any consolation for anybody or group of persons loss in the last general elections. Trust me whatever is happening now will not have any impact on how people vote in 2027. So if anyone thinks they can capitalise on this to win next election and bring their own version of misgovernance they are mistaken.

you will still vote for bat not because he is the best but because of your foolishness

Lair wey no fit pay him transport commit for him papa rented one room apartment because of hardship wey bat cause for an

I believe strongly in Tinubu and all this we are seeing currently is what is obtainable at the early stage of a reform.

You no get shame and probably you dont value honour...

Did I hear you say "reform"?

profmallor:
Neither of Obi nor Atiku could have brought such hardship on Nigerians before they would have taken to the streets, for Tinubu to go this far and yet the streets are not full means something. People are willing to wait for them to get it right. The fact that Obidients continue to rob the pain in despite they also patronizing the same markets as everyone else's leaves the taste of the last elections bitterness in the air.

Not so. The people who mastermind protests are the ones in govt now.
Check all the celebrities that participated in the 2012 protests. 90% of them are for Tinubu

NEIGHBOUR:



Don't mind them!!! Non of the three Presidential Candidates has the leadership traits to move this country to the next level. It is all noise.

Thank God you understand that too.

Agbegbaorogboye:

Where is Tinubu getting money to pay for subsidy now?

Devaluation of the Naira which means more Naira revenue. Also the removal of subsidy has reduced the amount of petrol consumed. Petrol needs to revert to market price of approx N1200 because smuggling will resume and we will be back to square 1. That is why I say I am not happy with him that he seems to have backtracked and has introduced subsidy through the back door.

Tflex01:


Hahaha 😂😂😂

How old are you?

You shouldn't have asked about his age.

You should be able to guess, Sir.

Simply tell him to go read the history of Nigeria first coup and fallout of Nigeria progressive economies and humongous corruption of the kakhi boys.

Nigerian military destroy this country till this day.

They gave us wobbled-militocratic constitution and installed kakhi-tocratic president in 1999.

The kakhi-tocratic president, laid a foundation of "do-or-die" politics in this 3rd republic.

Who went on to induce national assembly with jamboree pays-corruption as we see in our politics today-for 3rd term agenda.

Image123:
Lolz. Only an ignoramus will not expect the current economic quagmire anytime that the subsidy on fuel and forex was to be removed. Tinubu has my respect, he stuck to his words and promises. Buhari said "what is subsidy?" before his election, just like Obi and Atiku. But he backed out and left the mess for his successor.

Tell me something, has he stopped paying fuel subsidy?

Ezmans:
petrol 700 naira

Get educated guy.

Nigeria cannot sell petrol below the international benchmark price. Nigeria will need to subsidise heavily.

Even as at now at 700 naira, Nigeria is stll subsidising. Imagine the amount of naira that Nigeria will be subsidising if petrol is still being sold at 180 naira. Right price without subsidy for now is 1500 per liter. Do the maths. The equivalent amount (even more in some instances) in dollars is what is being paid in the western nations that you always rush to quote. Nigeria will just ka-boom if we continue paying subsidy!

You expect your refineries to be modernised, productive, to produce high throougput, to be well run and efficient, yet you are asking Nigeria to sell below the international price.

Tell me how Nigeria wont have a budget deficit, tell me why smugglers wont be encouraged to cross border to sell at high cost.

Do you guys really understand the implications of most things you are always asking for?

I met one guy, who claimed to be educated and was saying during the regime of Yaradua, price of petrol was below 70 naira, that Nigeria should be able to sell petrol at under 100 naira being an oil producing country. I just laughed at his ignorance.

Do you really know me personally? How do you know I am living a poor life and asslicking politicians? You think everyone is a low life like you. Who dey suffer?
You dont asslick politicians but you refuse to get over an election loss of your god even after a year.

I understand it is double portion of sadness for you now. Hardship is one and the fact that the man supervising the hardship is the one you love to hate is a knock out for you. You go cry tire.

Lifeinlight:
don't you wish to live a good life like those politicians you asslick and their families? Is this the legacy you also want to pass to your children as it was passed to you by your parents? Suffer no dey tire you? You want your children to also serve these politicians children just as you're serving their father now?

I did not allege it. That is an accusation that has been in the public domain for years. Atiku himself admitted to Kadaria Ahmed that he'd make his friends rich because they deserve to be rich. See links below:

https://guardian.ng/news/atiku-vows-to-enrich-friends-if-elected-president/

https://pmnewsnigeria.com/2019/01/18/video-watch-as-atiku-promises-to-enrich-all-his-friends/

https://www.channelstv.com/2019/01/16/im-not-going-to-enrich-members-of-my-family-but-my-friends-atiku/

Obasanjo and El Rufai adduced to Atiku's corruption in their books. Atiku never denied or made anti-corruption pretences. Obasanjo couldn't have prosecuted Atiku as Atiku had immunity. Remember that Obasanjo illegally declared Atiku's seat vacant in 2006. Tinubu gave Atiku succour.

Also recall that there are several allegations against Atiku in the US pertaining to him using his ex-wife, Jennifer Douglas, to launder money through the US real estate market. Atiku's dealings with a former US senator sent the senator to jail.

As for the sale of national assets, PDP messed it up. It was seen as a bazaar. Atiku was Chairman of National Privatization Council.

With Atiku's antecedents and posturing, it is hard to trust him with the national assets and national treasury.

It is one thing to be corrupt, it is completely insane to be proud of it.

MT:


Of course, Tinubu will have my vote in the next election.

Only a mad man does things same way and expects different results.

Nigeria was tilting towards doom before Tinubu came to power. Paying for subsidy with borrowed funds. Who does that,?

Now we have seen that our supposedly "wealthy" nation is actually poor. We have seen that we can't even feed ourselves. We have seen that the country is not generating enough dollars to meet the huge daily demands. We have seen our vanities.

All hands need to be on deck. The governors of each state collecting fat monthly allocation while doing nothing should be dragged. Afterall, the governors know you will blame the presidency for their own inefficiencies.

If you are abroad, and you think you are immune, you are deceiving yourselves. You send money home to either keep in the bank or use to buy materials - you will end up buying expensive materials or your money loses value inside your banks account. You must join in this war as well.

It is now our battle against the elites who keeps stealing our funds. Agriculture needs to be made appealing to our youths. All tier of govt should create environment for industries to thrive. Our insatiable appetite for foreign goods must stop. All tiers of government must enact a policy to stop converting lands meant for agriculture into a real estate!!.

Without all these, no human on earth can lead Nigeria to greatness. Don't be deceived!. Tinubu is a president and not a magician.

But you guys claimed to see all this under Buhari and you're seeing it all over again under Tinubu.
Are you guys seers or what?
Besides, I don't know where you guys get the idea that Tinubu is about to fight corruption or clean the mess as you guys used to claim under Buhari.
