This is facts, I 100% with the poster.
Obasanjo, Goodluck, Yar'Adua (RIP) combined didn't achieve what this administration has achieved so far.
-Extreme tax.
-Never ending protests like never before.
-Nigerian has never been this unsafe when it comes to insecurity.
-Economic instability is up.
-Let's not even start with the Power Grid and electricity.
-Petroleum prices? Hike!
-Corruption allegations? Another topic.
-Rent, feeding, clothing, and fees, are now a luxury.
This administration has achieved a lot, from the back.
Dear @realDonaldTrump
When an assassination attempt was made on your life, the world rightly condemned it as an attack on democracy. Today, there has been an attempt on the life of @PeterObi, widely regarded as a leading presidential candidate and the people’s choice in Nigeria.
We respectfully urge you and members of the U.S. Congress to pay attention and speak up. Political violence, anywhere in the world, must never be normalized or ignored.
Nigeria is treading a dangerous path that could sink its democracy.
@EKEDP what is our crime in festac that there have been power outage for days now?
We hardly have power supply. Why this wickedness on festac residents?
Sarcastic Sunday: Tinubu’s Amnesty — But Who Will Pardon The President? - Part 1
October 12, 2025
By Mohammed Bello Doka
Welcome to Sarcastic Sunday with Mohammed Bello Doka, where we study Nigeria’s political gymnastics sarcastically — because doing otherwise will choke us to death.
Another Sunday, another miracle from Aso Rock. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has opened the gates of mercy wide enough to let even the devil stroll through with a presidential handshake. In one sweeping act of compassion, he has granted amnesty to a long list of convicts — from drug traffickers to murderers — because, apparently, Nigeria has become a land where crime not only pays but also gets state-sponsored forgiveness.
Yes, it’s official: repentance is no longer the path to redemption — all you need now is a presidential signature. Some say it’s an act of grace, others call it national comedy. I call it what it truly is — "The Federal Republic of Forgiveness, Unlimited."
Among those pardoned were convicted drug offenders, financial criminals, and even a woman accused of killing her husband. Only in Nigeria can a widow-maker receive state mercy while widows are still waiting for food palliatives. Maybe it’s all part of our gender equality agenda — equal opportunities for everyone, including killers.
And let’s not pretend the irony isn’t loud enough to wake the ancestors. For a president once accused of forfeiting $460,000 to the U.S. authorities in a drug-linked investigation, pardoning drug dealers feels less like compassion and more like a class reunion of the cartel alumni association. The man was never convicted, yes, but the whispers have never faded — especially now that his government is doing everything possible to block the FBI from releasing the files.
Nigeria, oh Nigeria. We are now a country where forgiveness is selective and justice wears designer sunglasses. When a poor man steals a loaf of bread, he becomes an example; when a rich man steals the bakery, he becomes a motivational speaker.
“In Nigeria, sin is not the problem — it’s poverty that makes sin unforgivable.”
They told us it was about decongesting the prisons, but we all know that’s a lie. Our prisons were full of the wrong people anyway — the small thieves, the unlucky youths, the street hustlers who couldn’t afford lawyers. Now, the presidential broom has swept them aside to make room for a new kind of elite: the VIP ex-convicts, freshly laundered and ready for political appointments.
“Our democracy has evolved — from government of the people to government of the pardoned.”
Let’s not forget the economic theatre in which this pardon was staged. Inflation is currently hovering around 24.23%, food inflation sits at 21.79%, and the naira, our beloved national symbol, is now ₦1,600 to a dollar. That means the newly approved ₦70,000 minimum wage amounts to a majestic $43.75 per month — or roughly $1.45 per day.
Congratulations, dear Nigerian worker. You are now officially poorer than the World Bank’s global poverty line of $2.15 per day. Even your suffering has gone international.
“The naira didn’t just fall — it fainted, revived, and fainted again.”
Over 54% of Nigerians now live below the poverty line. In rural areas, it’s 75.5%, while 41.3% of urban dwellers are also broke with dignity. But don’t worry — the government insists that better days are coming. The only problem is, those days are coming by road, and bad roads don’t let progress arrive on time.
And while citizens tighten belts they no longer wear, insecurity tightens the noose. Banditry, kidnapping, and terrorism have become part of our national anthem. Every day, Nigerians are abducted faster than policy promises. Yet, in the middle of it all, the government found time to pardon criminals. Maybe they’re freeing the bandits so they can come back and register for next year’s empowerment programmes.
@BashirAhmaad@KemiBadenoch@GOtvNg I just upgraded my gotv from joli to max but telemundo is not showing . Infact channels like mtv base and the rest are not showing what's going on?
@PHCNnigeria enough of your madness. If you have decided to stop giving 6th avenue festac extension light then hold your power while we keep our money. But enough of this off & on. What sort of madness is this in 2024 we are still hoping on you people for power?
@gtbank_help@gtbank blocked me because I discovered it was a fake handle. The number provided by the handler for me to chat on WhatsApp & complain almost hacked into my bank app. I was smart & refused to share the last 10 digits of my ATM card when I was asked to provide it
@GtbankH65569 I think this handle @gtbank_help@gtbank is a fraudulent handle you shared a number to me here to contact on WhatsApp & the almost hacked my bank app if not that I was smart. One mr olufemi usman who claimed to be a staff of @gtbank was asking for 10digit of my atm pin
