Yeah, the type of joblessness that made William Wilberforce advocate for slavery abolition, even though powerful people including the British monarchy were involved. If he was not jobless, where would we japa to, since we don’t want to fix our own country?
BTW, does anyone know why Yekini Amoda Ogunlere chose Tinubu instead of Mogaji, the name of his supposed mother
anonimi:
The often cited biography titled Madame Tinubu: Merchant and King-maker, authored by Nigerian historian Oladipo Yemitan, paints her views regarding slave trading.
On one occasion, during her final sojourn in Abeokuta, she was alleged to have sold a young boy into slavery and was accused of it. When arraigned before Ogundipe Alatise over the matter, she reportedly explained: 'I have a large house-hold and I must feed them well. I need money to do that, that's why'.
— Oladipo. Yemitan, 'Madame Tinubu: Merchant and King-maker'
Another section of Yemitan's Tinubu biography, referred to as the Amadie-Ojo Affair, captures a slave trading deal gone sour in 1853 (notably after the 1852 Treaty abolishing slavery in Lagos) wherein Tinubu tells another slave trader (Domingo Martinez) that "she would rather drown the slaves [20 in number] than sell them at a discount".
Celestialsword:
This a sponsored media propaganda that is far from the truth and reality on ground.

See as you just decoded the entire article as a labour in vain propaganda to deceive us about ebilokan achievements in two years of running aimlessly.

anonimi: Neo-black Problem: Must Blacks Be Ruled by Whites in Order to Prosper?
In short, the neo-black dilemma may be framed as follows: is it better to live under white rule without political dignity but with basic life-sustaining standards for many;
or to live under black rule with illusory political dignity and without basic life- sustaining standards for the majority?

The path forward for Africa lies in cultivating higher and adequate levels of personal and communal agential integrity as well as full personal responsibility and productivity. Not to mention creativity (including epistemic creativity), productive justice (such as merit and freedom), harmony and reconciliation at local and international levels, and a proper domestication of capitalism and other related values and institutions.
Africa must stop wasting her time on dreams of socialism because it is a system of wealth distribution primarily. Whereas, capitalism is a system of wealth creation primarily, and wealth has to be produced before it can be distributed.

The First Lady of Nigeria, Oluremi Tinubu, has urged Nigerian youths to be hard-working, saying, “There is no food for lazy man.”
Mrs Tinubu said this during a courtesy visit to the palace of Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, in Ile-Ife, Osun State, on Thursday.
She noted that while the Tinubu-led istration is working hard to provide sustainable solutions to the current challenges facing the country, Nigerians should also work hard to provide for themselves.
The first lady maintained that the government will do all it takes to ensure that Nigerians are not disappointed and called for patience with Tinubu’s istration.
Mrs Tinubu said: “There is no food for the lazy man; even God worked for six days and rested on the seventh day.
“Nigeria is a land that’s flowing with milk and honey, but we need to sustain it for generations to come.
“God has richly blessed my family before getting to the presidency and we are content with what we have.
“What is happening in the country, we are just two years into our istration, we are not the cause of the current situation. We are trying to fix and secure the future.
“I have embarked on several journeys but it seems that people are not seeing what God is doing in the land. Nations across the globe want to do business with us, legally, on the table. There is a government in power now that they know it is able.
“We are trying all our efforts to ensure that the economy is stabilised and the masses are living meaningful lives since the removal of fuel subsidy.”

anonimi: 2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury
Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.
One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.
Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.
ClearFlair:
So you want them to give their vote to incompetent APC instead of a Peter Obi that has shown serious leadership capabilities? Go and gaslight ekuke dogs on the street. This format no dey work on humans again
They EFFECTIVELY gave their tribal 100% votes to APC’s ebilokan.
jameshankss:
Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”
Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.
He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.
ClearFlair:
Nigerians will vote in 2027 and not politicians. You can already see that jumping from one party to another will not help anybody
Which Nigerians?
The 10% of our population that vote on tribal basis, like the five SE states that gave 100% to Obi and made it easier for ebilokan to continue APC shege that was fraudulently sold as change in 2015?

TIMES had reported how Nigeria recorded a new low in voter turnout during the last general elections. With a national turnout of 29 per cent, a Times analysis showed that the last election had the lowest participation rate in the country’s six decades of independence.
It further revealed that of the 93.4 million ed voters this year, 87.2 million people collected their Permanent Voters Card and the total number of actual voters on election day was only 24.9 million..The winner of the election, Bola Tinubu, had less than nine million votes, roughly 10 per cent of the total eligible voters.
Another analysis by this newspaper revealed that all the 18 candidates in Nigeria’s February elections received only 27.55 per cent of the total eligible votes.

1.Was it APC - that packaged Dezani-during GEJ Govt- for all the Dollar 💰 Money,that she had to relocate abroad?
2.Was it APC that installed the Former CBN Governor( Emiefiele)- to be Debiting NTrillions in Ways and Means s ,in addition to Multi-Billions of the Anchor 🔱 Borrowers Farmers Money 🤑- all looted?
3.Is it APC - that says your PDP SHOULD NOT BUILD ANY INFRASTRUCTURES FOR GOOD 16- YEARS IN GOVT- BOTH in Federal Level and Their States?
4.Is it APC that Papa OBJ was working for , when Power Contract of $16BILLON - under Independent Power Projects,yet till date Nothing - No 🚨.

The 2018 Rating by Transparency International placed Nigeria at 148th position out of 180 countries. Nigeria was improving over the years under the previous government, until Buhari got elected as president, things became worse.
There is a difference between fact and fiction. We need to face facts, Buhari is worse than GEJ when it comes to fighting corruption, at least that’s what the facts prove.
Most of us believed there was corruption under Goodluck Jonathan’s Government. I agree with those who did, there was corruption, but not as bad as it is today under Mohammadu Buhari.
In 2012, Nigeria was placed at 139th position, In 2014, Nigeria gained 3 steps and was placed at 136th position. Under Buhari, Nigeria has lost many positions down to 148th.
There’s no further proof needed that corruption has worsened under Buhari’s government compared to previous years.
Are they not supposed to privatized this refineries so it will be the headache of a private entity for the maintenance and operations. They are just using them as conduit to siphon money . Sometimes you wonder if Nigeria leaders are deliberately being mediocre to avoid letting this country have progress ,because you can't tell me they don't know the probable solution for this deadbeat refinery is to privatise them......
Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with the black race.
Was Atiku right about privatising the refineries, as a consistent free market economy capitalist?
Is that how he worked with Obasanjo to make our country prosperous for eight years with growing employment and productivity? Is that the same thing Milei is doing in Argentina with results that are almost like a miracle?

If Akpabio doesn’t hate himself, then why would he steal so much money to make himself vulnerable to APC blackmail and be obligated to their Assembly of Past Crooks, APC
How many civil servants have been employed as part of this transformation to enroll each and every child resident in Enugu state, in free primary, vocational and secondary schools that have adequate professional teachers and other staff?

The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy Chief Olawale Edun has said the last time Nigeria’s economy looked stable was about a decade ago.
He made this statement during his maiden press conference as Minister of Finance where he outlined President Bola Tinubu’s vision, agenda and strategy for the economy.
He said, “I think as we all know, we are not where we should be. The economy is barely growing above the rate of population growth.
“But it was not always so, and I think in trying to look at the way forward, if we now have a situation of slow growth, double-digit inflation, weak/depreciating exchange rate, as well as security concerns that are resulting in an economy that is not growing and not taking Nigerians out of poverty.
“If we think back to the last time when the economy was stable- when it was growing, when inflation was low, and the interest rate was affordable, that period was about a decade ago. Growth was about 6% in 2013 and 2014.”

All enemies of this country we be put to shame. They are doing this because they don't want Yoruba to rule for eight years. 4+4=8
Just as ebilokan did everything to make sure that an Ijaw man didn’t rule for eight years 4+4=8, even though he had to resurrect his expired leadership to be APC shege master for his demonic agenda.
Since ebilokan shied away from presidential debate, he is also a coward with nothing to offer except increasing APC incompetence and corruption for worse inflation, worse unemployment, worse insecurity, worse infrastructure, worse electricity etc.
Tinubu told ACN ers in Kano during the party’s Presidential rally that: “What Nigerians need now is a transformation in leadership” as obtained in the advanced economy.
The two-term Governor of Lagos State explained that the leadership of ACN was offering Nigeria the brilliance of Nuhu Ribadu who, he said, is in the class of Nicolas Sarkozi of , David Cameron of Britain, Medvedev of Russia and Barack Obama of the United States of America.
“What has C got to offer? We certainly don’t need expired leadership as we are offering the best in of brilliance, courage and patriotism in the class of Sarkozi of , David Cameron of Britain and Barack Obama of the USA.”
Tinubu’s position came on the heels of Ribadu’s declaration penultimate week in Kaduna when he hinted during a political rally of a t ticket between the two opposition parties to confront the dominance of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
The national leader of ACN criticised President Goodluck Jonathan for shying away from the national debate held last Friday, stressing that”that singular act exposed Jonathan as a coward who has nothing to offer.”

see how diplomatic you responded to him. Truly una dey fear and respect your slave masters, Fulani as they say.

He would rather deny his own people and throw his fellow southerners under the cow to lick the anuses of Fulanis.
Did ebilokan not package his expired soldier dubiously as APC change messiah instead of shege master, to make his fellow southerner Jonathan into a one term president (OTP)?

Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country
Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.
Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....
However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.
Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.
How do you know that ebilokan and his waist-focused sinate president are paying taxes if they have never published their personal income tax returns? Just like incorruptible Buhari never did but unlike supposedly corrupt Jonathan did.
Is it any surprise that corruption is worse in this APC shege istration since 2015
