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 .

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.




Anambra did not improve ? If you don’t have anything useful to say just continue praising your BAT and shut up on things you didn’t know.

AMEN! You have no business eat8ng bread with imported flour and you will not change your ways until bread became too expensive for you. You grandfather ate akara and ogi produced by local farmers which contributed to the economy of Nigeria and jobs for Nigerians. When did bread become part of your diet of the average Nigerian…..nonsense! Bread is produced using imported wheat produced by foreign farmers. If you still want to eat bread, either produce wheat in Nigeria or be prepared to pay the price.

You have an idea of how much a bag of beans for making the same akara cost.Do you have an idea of what a bag of local maize for making same ogi cost?

Whatever the cost, it is a Naira cost, I know for a fact that a loaf of bread is N1500, you can feed your family with akara or moi-moi for N1500 but I am not sure that loaf will feed the family satisfactorily. Like I said the jobs involved in making akara are all local, the jobs involved in making the bread is majorly exported to wheat farmers abroad.

Besides it is healthier for you.

Correct me if I am wrong , there is no language in Nigeria that has a word for ā€œbreadā€ā€¦. That tells you it is not part of our normal diet, it is a foreign concept, it is not something that should be a main staple of the masses of Nigeria.

Did you go to school, do you understand basic arithmetic? Before Buhari left if Nigeria gets $1b from oil, they convert it at the official rate and it is N 400b. Today the dollar is approx 1600, which means the same $1b is converted to the government coffers and becomes N1.6 trillion…that is 4 times what used to enter the government coffers.

Now, government’s Naira expenditure has not gone up by a factor of 4. For instance salaries have not gone up 4 fold, Naira repayment of previous government domestic debts have not and will not go up, because the loans were in the past and the repayment are fixed in Naira. So let’s say govt expenses have gone up to N600b from N400b, it means government needs only $400m of the $1b from oil ($400m x 1600 = N640m) to meet its Naira obligations, which leaves it with $600m…..and that is how they are still able to pay subsidy. Without floating the Naira they would not have been able to. That said, there should be absolutely no subsidy. We need to change our habits. The only way you change habits is to make them painful. People need to think twice before they embark on a journey, when choosing the type of cars they buy etc.

grin grin grin
Who is this guy and where are you getting this rubbish from? And it's funny you're adding insults to it. And someone even liked your rubbish?!!
1. I asked you if you know how govt works because if you do, you'll know that all of the money made by FG goes into a single . Your legacy APC govs made sure of that in 2012 so your dumb claim of changing a part of that money and keeping the rest in dollars is absolute trash.
2. It is a testament to your befuddling ignorance that you don't realize that there's domestic debts denominated in naira and foreign debts denominated in dollars. I guess IMF and world Bank loans are being paid in naira.
3. The most silly thing I've ever heard is the claim that govt expenditure has not gone up far beyond in response to devaluation. Nigeria's budget in 2015 was N4.5trn with expected revenue of 9trn. By 2023, it had ballooned to 21trn with expected revenue of 10trn while 2024 is 28trn with a revenue of 18trn. Do the simple maths. Is there any difference between revenue and expenditure differential between 2023 to 2024? Is there any improvement in revenue that's commensurate with over 300% devaluation?

Typical Nairalander, all noise zero intelligence! Bring stats let's compare rather than the useless blabbing! How much was Buhari borrowing to pay subsidies, how much is being borrowed now? You can make your point without sounding like an unfortunate clown!

Stop writing nonsense. Your sound like someone who is addicted to suffering. Bread is a staple in Nigeria. Wheat is also grown in Nigeria as well. It is called alkama in hausa.
You're an ignorant and petulant dolt.
How is akara or moimoi better than bread when they both have to be done with oil?
You know how many bakeries were have I'm Nigeria? Wait until bakers go on strike this week.

2. You think salaries is the only govt expenditure? Your really need to shut up. Maybe you should go back and check the budget and see how 21trn became 28trn this year

What do You mean by Anambra did not improve under Obi??

So taking the Academic sector from like 12ps to 1st is not improving??
So ensuring that Anambra was safest State in Nija under His reign is not improvement?

Have you even checked for the achievements of Obi as Governor or you just wan the Apc ririri talk??.
Tinubu is a maximum failure not bcus he can't do well but bcus his evil APC was never formed to do well,the only thing that matters is taking power from pdp and keep it at any cost.
