My own be say let these appointments reflect in a common man on the street to see brightness again in this country. We have stayed long in the dark.
I have given up long time ago on this country. It will take me next 2 years for me personally to access this new government may be they can prove that they are totally different from the rest and God sent. I know tinubu as a bright mind, I know femi gbajabiamila won't want to fail too. They will want to right the wrong that has kept the country into bondages for long though they are not close to being saint either. But let the common man feel the impact. Stop all those jihadists that have displaced people from their native lands. Revolutionalize agricultural sectors and let there be mechanized and advanced farming system s, build refineries and decentralise many monopolies operated by many individuals. Let the poor have a new breath again. Let her citizens see hope in this country again.
May God take control of the situation.
Time will tell

Hope he continues the reforms in the sector.
We all know how corrupt the sector is.
That was why PMB appointed a non officer to head them.
All the new appointments seems very fit and okay

Make dem go open Border first and sack all doz corrupt entity in southern Border....

Ashiwaju keeps giving me Joy.

He is not going to disappoint us. He has done it before and he is doing it again.

God bless Bola Ahmed Tinubu - the butcher of the pigs

The way you guys keep hating eh, is it an inborn?

LET THE PIGS GRUNT. DON'T SUFFOCATE THEM

His appointment is a big relieve to Customs. Finally, the era of military guys running the affairs of Customs is over.

Wait o, na military been running them since? That's very ridiculous. All these sectors need serious flushing. If you don't perform even within 6 months, boot them out. That's what I expect of tinubu istration.

I dedicate “Rich Spirit” by Kendrick Lamar to Aşiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Great jam!

We are still watching.

Before his appointment as acting Comptroller, Adeniyi was a Deputy Comptroller General of Customs.

There is nothing to be enthusiastic about deputy comptroller general becoming the comptroller general. The same old corrupt senior officers increasing in rank would not change anything.

Hamed Ali was the first millitary guy to run customs...all his predecessors were Customs men.

Let me break down d increment of diesel by 7.5% and electricity by 40%
Diesel is being sold at 650 on average. 7.5 ÷100 =0.075
0.075 × 650 (current price of diesel) = 48.75
What this means is that a liter of diesel has being added by 48.75
So calculate 650 + 48.75 = 698.75. That's in average
So diesel would selling at 698.75 on average

As for d electricity
40% increment ÷ 100 = 0.4 × 49.26 per unit of electricity = 19.704 increment
So therefore, 49.26 + 19.704 = 68.964 per unit starting from July 1, 2023
Nigerians should be ready for d worst of it all

It is not by seizing 8 million dollars. Abba Kyari was hailed as super cop until his yahoo business link was discovered.

which reforms was ongoing that he is going to continue

I've been following his career advancements, all I can say is Tinubu knows how to pick the best talents for the job. How he identifies and single them out from the crowd is a mystery
