In this economic state, any government that is not making any genuine commitment to cutting the cost of governance is not ready for change. This is why I am not taking this government seriously until I see a genuine attempt at reducing the cost of governance by at least 30%. It's still early to judge though but I am not falling for the ongoing whitewashing.
And you deduced all this from one tweet? So if I find a tweet of Obi supporters talking about BAT bigotry in 10 years' time, I should conclude that BAT supporters are the Vilest and most toxic? So, we have all forgotten that opposition exists in Nigeria politics?
So it’s not new that the supporters of @PeterObi are the vilest and most toxic.
Bigotry, religious division, hate, abuses, insults, intolerance, and intimidation appears to be his legacy in politics, while he pretends to be a gentleman, a saint, and a victim. It’s such a shame.
People who call themselves intellectuals are digging up the opinions of a few individuals to pass judgment on someone's tenure as governor. However, they refuse to accept the citizens' opinion on the government they support today. And you claim this isn't a paid gig?
@Imranmuhdz And what has the man you support said? Peter Obi is also right, half of the problem we have in this country is leadership. This fool supported Buhari but he draw the line with Peter Obi. Bloody hypocrite!
How about you call out the president of your country for not protecting their lives instead of criticising a man for not honouring them now that they are dead? Isn't this misplaced criticism if you are really being objective?
This is not the time for politics! Can we please have some respect for the ones we lost? The deceased deserve to be treated with dignity and honour. Not you-should-have-voted-for-me politics disguised as care.
Call President @officialABAT out. Remind him that the buck stops at his table. Because it does.
But this shouldn’t be one for political opportunism. Enough of politicising Nigeria’s tragedies. Don’t perch on the bodies of the victims to advance more ethnic and religious division. This isn’t the place and the time for that. Playing on these fissures is how we got here.
If you believe people didn’t vote for you on account of your religion or ethnicity, using the death of their fellow citizens to advance such divisive concerns won’t earn you their votes. Every tragedy shouldn’t always be an opportunity for divisive narratives.
Nigerians can mourn without being knocked for the democratic choices they have a right to make.
The victims of this tragedy aren’t thinking of who was or wasn’t elected. They are looking to recover their lives and restore livelihood and to be protected from more attacks. The government needs to be called to that responsibility.
There will be ample time for campaign, complaints and feigned compassion.
It is not as if as governor you were a doyen of security or social justice. Repeatedly spouting “competence, capacity, character and compassion” doesn’t automatically endow one with them. There’s a reason you had to reference India and South Africa, because it is harder to look into your own record. You had to secure a court order to avoid defending your role and record as governor as Awkuzu SARS committed atrocities and ran rampage.
Respect the dead. Honour the survivors. Keep politics out of it.

This 100 men vs 1 gorilla discourse is killing me man. Cuz all this stems from the fact that people just don’t realize how big of a number 100 is. Just count 1 to 100 slowly rn. 30-40 is enough to handle a gorilla
Nigeria politicians are cowards!!! Not even one is willing to stand with the people and this is mainly because we have mostly criminals masquerading as politicians. I am sad for my country mehn...
I understand what president Tinubu is trying to do with fuel subsidy removal but then you can't remove fuel subsidy and approve just 70k as minimum wage. Nigerians are really suffering.
Dear World bank, China, France and Germany,
Please stop giving Nigeria loan. You are just funding the lifestyle of the politicians and making the leaders lazy. Thank you.

Having travelled far and wide, I have come to a personal conclusion that disunity is the reason why Africa as a continent is not progressing. It is also the reason why Africa has the worst leaders. Be it disunity among the countries or disunity among the tribes. The latter is worse.
Spot on Great Oracle. I wonder why opposition parties are not asking for Mr Yakubus resignation before participating in any other elections. Going through with this election is passing a vote of confidence on him and his rogue enterprise. We all already know the result of this elections....

"G.O, greetings to the gods... If I may ask, Sir, why are you not tweeting about the elections in Imo, Kogi and Bayelsa States?".
Response:
First fool no be fool; second fool na proper foolish. Only foolish opposition parties think they can win in elections conducted by Prof Mahmood.
My thought exactly, it's even crazy that this INEC is allowed to conduct the off season election. The current INEC needs to be scrapped along with every other institution that supposed to be independent. We need strong independent institutions.
If opposition parties agree to contest 2027 elections with APc leaders as @inecnigeria commissioners, then they are more than useless.
The only condition for 2027 election is that this INEC is scrapped. We need and independent INEC
