Dimwitted clerics like this almost over-ran Bida town few years ago. It took the intervention of Etsu Yahaya and other elders to smoke them out when the authorities came for them. The authorities made a very good example of Mallam Isah Gausu then, and since then, the town has been enjoying relative peace even though we still have a handful of them remaining.
It's time our governors and leaders put an end to this brewing inferno in Arewa.

This airport isn’t a priority especially as the MMIA renovation and expansion will be completed in 6-9months max! What any incoming governor should focus on is urban renewal, sewage & water reticulation and power generation! We don’t need another airport yet that can come later.

A young man recently asked a woman if she wanted to make out in his car, and he became a whole story time on TikTok.
You women only love direct men online.

That's the kind of candidate @TheoAbuAgada and Co fielded for NDC in Imo state 🤣

I place stupidity like this squarely on Asemota’s shoulders!
You lot gassed these folks up so much they really believe they’re somehow better! I keep saying this, I’ve been to Accra multiple times, it’s not even as nice as Owerri, a tier 2 city in Nigeria FFS!

2. The time anyone cared about what Atiku did and didn’t do or how things will end, finished in 2023.
So this your talk no make sense.
If Atiku wins, good
If he doesn’t win, good.
Fact is the man has had a fulfilled life that many, including yourself, may never have.

Oh! This makes sense. I remember reading that some electricity equipment had procurement issues during Obj’s rule. It was part of the fraud that Atiku was falsely accused of🤣
President Tinubu directs urgent clearance of over 300 containers of stranded electricity equipment, some held at ports for 20 years.

You don't appreciate how PMS price feed into overall inflation in Nigeria, especially food inflation. Then transportation or you don't think the "common man" move around? Plus Nigeria has almost a non existent "public transportation".

To every founder, engineer, and dreamer gathered at the National Theatre in Lagos today for Moonshot by @TechCabal: you have built world-class companies in spite of policy, and I want to be the President who builds policy that works for you.
I will give young companies tax relief in their early years. I will also make the government your customer by digitising public services, budgeting, and procurement, and I will require every new development to be fibre-ready. You have proven what Nigerian talent can do alone. Imagine what it can do with a government on its side. -AA

To "if we give you 24/7 power, can you pay for it?"
I will see job to pay back nelfund, but I won't see money to pay for 24/7 power

Masussuka was born on September 19, 1979. Maitatsine was killed on December 28, 1980. Masussuka was just one year, three months and nine days old when Maitatsine was killed. How on earth could a baby barely 15 months old have been Maitatsine’s student? Ku ji tsoron Allah mana.
What percentage of these "recurrent" expenditure is salaries and not some bugos allowances?

Nigerians use at least 5 times more electricity than the grid can provide on its best day. 90 million Nigerians flat out don’t have access to electricity.
Gencos cover only 12 million Nigerian households. This is the discussion in which you’re talking about subsidized electricity.
A country in which generators provide more electricity than the national grid, and in which solar is fast becoming more relevant.
Is your generator subsidized?
In any case, Education SHOULD be subsidized because it’s a net positive and a public good that ultimately improves societal outcome. That should not even be debated.
You like doing comparisons, in 2025, Nigerians got something like $23b in foreign remittances, more than half of our budget for that year, how much of those remittances can be attributed to educated Nigerians who japa-ed and are earning with the knowledge gotten from subsided Nigerian education? If Nigeria is too unproductive to absorb its educated, is it not a benefit to us if they compete as part of the global talent pool?
What is your argument against subsidized education specifically? If the government strips away subsidies in PMS, fair enough. So should it not subsidize education? Is our current educational budget, or even at its peak, not below the standard as a percentage of GDP?
Nigerian public universities do not charge tuition. People study for four years for less than a thousand dollars. That’s superior to whatever financial aid some American students get, at least from a price and affordability perspective.
Nigeria not only used to have petrol subsidies, we ALSO currently have energy subsidy, which is why we owe GENCOs 6 trillion+, which about 8b dollars.
Secondly, the point here is that the Nigerian state ALREADY carries MANY burdens it can’t pay for, therefore the solution isn’t “cutting cost of governance” since that doesn’t compare at all to what the state has pledged to carry — for instance, the National Assembly, the biggest collection of robbers in the country, have a 577b personnel cost. The solution is raising more money. Americas tax to GDP ratio is 25%, and Nigeria’s is 8.2%, almost three times lower!
How far do you think that would go in paying off our GENCO debt alone? That’s the point here, not your random deflections.
Corruption is actually not our major problem but incompetence. Give me corrupt competent leader anyday than someone not corrupt but grossly incompetent, we've tried both in the country.

Throughout the history of those killed by terrorists, this is the first time some people have come out to celebrate someone’s assassination simply because he was not a member of their sect, after they repeatedly threatened to kill him. And tomorrow they'll say the US is the BH.
