@AderonkeW@woye1 She actually started hawking amala within her husband's mechanic workshop where Lapour hotel was contructed. She was then pushed behind Good tidings Church using a 20ft container as sitting area for customers and cooking under mango tress..
Today, the rest is history ✌️
Only the WICKED SOULS assumed 50k is only meant for candies and chewing gum.
At lot of poor people are looking for 3k to start hawking cold pure water in their localities.
Dear Nigerians,
Take a moment to look at the kind of people engaged in petty trade that the First Lady was referring to. Much of the criticism appears to have come from some nuisance who lakck simple context.
I hope this helps clear up some of the misconceptions from our educated illiterate.
I’ve finally seen why APC always win elections and will continue to win, they understand grassroot politics and are willing to meet everybody at their level
Obidients think everybody can be coders and tech experts and these people don’t even vote in elections 😆
Yesterday’s outrage remains a shock to me
BREAKING: The EFCC has recovered over N9.4 billion, $21.2 million, and various landed properties in an ongoing investigation into the diversion of funds meant for the turnaround maintenance of Nigeria's refineries. Including the dollar-denominated assets, total recoveries are estimated to exceed N38.66 billion.
@ruffydfire There've been akara, kulikuli (etc) sellers b4 you were born and they'll continue to exist after you.
The very poor in the Country that genuinely need such empowerment will be glad of the gesture. She didn't direct her statement to graduates or a particular person(s).
So rest!
“First Lady Tinubu wasn’t referring to those who are already established and comfortable or on average comfort, she is referring to those who lack totally and possibly begging to feed. She says if she can give you N50k-N70k to start doing petty trade, that may save you from the agony of lack and street begging which is very true but look at the way hypocrites are turning her good gesture…”
This is the true definition of EDUCATION. As always seen in the summary section of WAEC Exam in those days “what is the central idea of this passage?”
See how a so called “illiterate” is lecturing educated illiterates whose knowledge has drowned in the ocean of social media trend!
A particular presidential candidate recruited 5 influencers, 4,000 social media attackers, imported 4,000 techno phones in 2023 to tear this country down.
@woye1@inecnigeria They've smuggled their biases into the game. Most of them are being funded and controlled by opposition actors who dictates their operations to drive home negative agendas.
Congratulations to Professor Obiora Okonkwo and United Nigeria Airlines, @flyunitedng, on securing approval for international routes to New York, Dubai and Canada.
This is exactly how nations grow. We cannot keep complaining about unemployment and capital flight while handing our skies to foreign airlines.
Allen Onyema of Air Peace broke barriers. Obiora Okonkwo is doing the same. These men are proving that Nigerian businesses can compete globally when given a fair chance.
President Tinubu should now take the next logical step: make it mandatory for every government official travelling on taxpayers’ money to fly a Nigerian airline if a Nigerian airline operates the route. Governors, ministers, lawmakers, advisers—everyone. Frankly, it is indefensible for a public official to spend Nigerian taxpayers’ money enriching foreign airlines while bypassing Nigerian carriers that employ Nigerian workers, pay Nigerian taxes and invest in the Nigerian economy. If a Nigerian airline flies the route, there should be no excuse and no exception.
Why should Nigerian taxpayers fund foreign airlines while our own carriers struggle for patronage? That makes absolutely no sense.
God willing, if my schedule permits, I will gladly join United Nigeria Airlines on its maiden flight to Canada. When Nigerians dare to dream big and win, they deserve our support.
Nigeria must stop exporting opportunities and start backing its own champions.
@GovWike@OlayinkaLere
Congratulations on about-to-be-commissioned projects.
Sir, I'll like to contribute to the brighter success of that City gate beautification project.
The flag at the center will look greater with a bigger and massive size.
Pls, consider sir🙏
