To the glory of God Almighty, little Success who went missing after the torrential rains of yesterday in Awka that swept him off his moving school bus has been found alive under a huge debris. It can only be God! It's another miracle!!
Please watch.
@gimbakakanda We can play to the gallery but every man wants a son, "sometimes if God Doesn't give u something, dont push it" that shows he wanted a son too but just didn't get it.... I remember Yusuf putting his father Buhari in the grave, that was awesome to watch...
@akintollgate Just imagine what you are using to defend yourself. We all know PO relate with everyone without playing their game. The question is ... Is P.O still associating with the people you just mentioned or is he in the same party with them. It's obvious you are eating your vomit. Shior
You want the truth?
It has not. The reforms were not meant to improve the quality of life and living conditions of ordinary Nigerians in obvious ways yet.
According to IFC, reforms typically take between 2 and 10 years before ordinary citizens feel the effects in a broad and obvious way.
0–2 years: Citizens often feel the pain first:
-subsidy removal
-inflation
- currency devaluation
-layoffs/restructuring
- tax increases
2–5 years: If reforms are consistent, countries may start seeing:
-lower inflation
-currency stability
-improved investor confidence
-job creation in new sectors
-infrastructure improvements
5–10+ years: The deeper societal impacts usually emerge:
-higher incomes
-productivity growth
-stronger institutions
-better living standards
-more stable private sector growth
Everything listed above is according to the IMF, the OECD, and the WB. It is well researched especially during the reforms of the Asian tigers and Eastern Europe.
I can defend this further, but please tell me you rest this with honesty and you can't see that we are perfectly in line with the timelines.
I fear the mistake is that most media aides of the Presidency didn't communicate this well to people enough, and to be honest, I get it, nobody loves to hear that the next couple of years would be for suffering.
Curse out Asiwaju for the security issues all you want; I will totally support you. But you see this economy side: while more can certainly be done, the team has done the unprecedentals by African standards.
Are you sure everything is fine sir? 😀 How does rocking his agbada diminish his chess program? He's an ambassador of his culture and that's part of who he is. Who/ what says his agbada must not cross the borders of Nigeria?
@Tunde_OD@mbitshi If you wore this rather unusual outfit to Olumo Rock, Bilikisu Sungbo Shrine or St James Anglican church Ota, maybe you'd have immortalised your legacy. But going all the way to advertise a faraway city for free, is diminishing your chess & the slums that gives it life
When was the last time you checked this debt servicing profile? Or you're quoting the dollar to naira equivalent translation of debt profile flying around? Your debt profile must be in the $ value it was sourced and will be repaid if you must be correct. Now, try look that up.
@OtunbaBrickz Greatest lie ever told was that removing subsidy will free up cash. How the heck is our debt profile still rising exponentially. Buhari is way better than Tinubu atleast the citizens were enjoying the subsidy directly.
Loooool do you want the Hard truth or comforting lies?!
On fuel: It depends, will subsidy be back?
If Obi reintroduces fuel subsidy, or if global crude crashes to $20/barrel (something no president controls), prices will drop.
But reintroducing subsidy = going back to Buhari-era borrowing just to fund consumption. Every major 2023 presidential candidate including Obi campaigned against exactly that.
On rent: It also depends, can Obi build 20million houses in 8yrs?
Rent control doesn’t crash prices; it just kills supply and drives landlords away. Nigeria has a 20 million housing deficit. To fix that in 8 years, we’d need to build 2.5 million homes annually.
Currently, we build about 100k new houses annually. To hit the target, we’d need to 25x our output—exceeding the US, which builds 1.5m homes yearly. Context? The US is a $30T economy; Nigeria is $200B. Their GDP is 150x our own. Any president promising to bridge that gap overnight is selling you a dream
The Hard Truth: there are no quick fixes
Both problems are deep macroeconomic issues with no quick fixes. A lot of people won’t want to hear this, but the current trajectory (subsidy removal + floating FX + FDI push) is the safest path we’ve could ever be on to avoid total economic collapse,
However Economic collapse has been salvaged under BAT’s first 3yrs: The real work now is consolidating those gains: we should diversify away from oil to growing other sectors (steel, mining, tech services, agriculture) and reinvest the proceeds into social infrastructure to cushion the pain.
Feels good to know we have a friend in everyone who saw what we did with the last office held.
I have never disappointed; and I won’t start now!
Kosofe Federal Constituency! Let it be known that #MayorDeleOshinowoIscoming and it’s time for proper, stronger and louder representation!
From Folake Solanke being the 1st female SAN to Elizabeth Awoliyi being the 1st female doctor to Anike Agbaje being the 1st female broadcaster to Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti being the 1st woman to drive to Shade Thomas-Fahm being the 1st fashion designer. Yoruba women are pioneers!
So the Nigerians who were hailing the 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 attacks on 🇮🇷 are now crying about the price of fuel?
You people think wars in oil regions are just Netflix episodes?
Plot twist: real life has consequences.
Tyrant who? Can you mention any one time in history that Iran has deployed nuclear weapons on any nation? US backs an aggressive Israel to have nuclear weapons but Iran and other neighbouring countries which Israel permanently wants to destroy must not have for self protection?
@ruffydfire Atomic power in the hand of Tyrants causes mass destruction is the logic behind the preventive mechanism against Iran. Know the philosophy before you judge the action
