Suddenly, pseudo intellectuals are pushing the dubious narrative that akara, roasted corn and kuli-kuli are sustainable means of livelihood.
How about groundnut and sachet water business? They should include them too.
The defenders of this wicked regime are telling us that Remi Tinubu has donated billions of Naira to NGOs.
First, they should tell us where she got such money from.
Second, they should provide the names and locations of the benefiting NGOs, and verifiable evidence that the donations have been properly utilized.
The advocates of akara economy should set up this business for their siblings and family members to demonstrate the efficacy of their postulations.
Since your mother sold akara to train you, why haven’t you opened akara factory for your wife, daughters, sons and political associates to promote and sustain your mother’s entrepreneurial legacy?
With the collapse of public education, how many akara sellers in this country currently can afford to pay their children’s tuition in private schools?
How many akara sellers can pay the rising costs of tertiary education and healthcare?
How many akara sellers can afford to pay the rising rents in Nigeria today?
How many akara will one sell to be able to buy fuel?
If akara, roasted corn and kuli-kuli are viable and sustainable microeconomic investments in Tinubu’s Nigeria, let the defenders of Tinubu show us members of their families that are engaged in this enterprise.
The point is not that akara, roasted corn and kuli-kuli aren’t necessary foods, the point is that we are all witnesses to how the Tinubu family has amassed wealth and captured state power to entrench and further their selfish and greedy ambitions.
We have seen the insane convoy of Remi Tinubu, Seyi Tinubu and their benefactor in Aso Rock.
It is deceitful and disrespectful for the same family that is living in opulence, amidst the ravaging and dangerous hunger in the country, to be pushing akara, roasted corn and kuli-kuli economy.
Bola Tinubu’s regime has been a wasteful and disastrous experiment.
We have seen how he is destroying our economy. But his annoying and power monger wife feels she can lecture the victims of their misrule and incompetence about the viability of the akara economy.
Enough of the silly expositions.
Surgery is a dying profession in Nigeria and there's just nothing else to say about it.
Less than 80 candidates went for part 1 nationals exam last cycle.
And less than 20 SRs went for part 2.
And what are the elders doing?
Busy playing politics and fighting for their own pockets and who would be the next CMD.
Pity.
Airpeace Airpeace Airpeace.
Airpeace has rescheduled my flight to After my Marriage. Im stuck in London till after my wedding 😭
Like @flyairpeace said we should land 2days after wedding without no prior communication.
I don’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Every year on my birthday, my Nigerian father tells me the same story.
He would fondly recount how eagerly he prepared for my birth long before my arrival, shopping for a carton of baby formula and other things he thought I might need.
I’m usually rolling my eyes whenever he takes this trip down memory lane—I’ve heard the story countless times—but this year, I find myself grieving the memory of a Nigeria where a 31-year-old man, with no government or family connections, could still live comfortably enough to prepare so thoughtfully and impressively for the birth of his second child.
I grieve the memory of a Nigeria my children and I never got to know, one I fear now exists only in history books. The rot and decadence of the last decade of Nigerian politics make one thing painfully obvious-with every new set of ‘leaders,’ we move further away from the values that make a nation healthy, functional, and humane.
Anyway, happy birthday to me 🥳
This is absolutely heartbreaking.
No words are enough for a pain like this.
A year into marriage… robbed of love, safety, and a future. Even after ransom was paid. That is not just a personal tragedy, it is a national failure.
Her tears speak for thousands of families living in fear, and for lives lost to insecurity that keeps being “condemned” but never truly stopped. No one should have to tell this kind of story at a protest. No one.
May her husband’s soul rest in peace
And may her courage shake the conscience of those in power.
Enough is enough.
@UcheMaryOkoli I agree with you that you don’t always have to shout in prayer , however there are depths of deep pain and desperation that cannot be conveyed in low, hushed tones. Read Psalms 22:1-2, Psalms 88:1-2;13, the story of Bartimaeus , etc for more context
I just read the dissenting judgment delivered by Justice Helen Ogunwumiju, JSC, in Sunday Jackson v. State.
By refusing to affirm the execution of a man who lawfully defended himself from an armed herdsman, she upheld the constitutional right to life and safeguarded the integrity of Nigeria’s criminal jurisprudence. (1)
