I was telling a friend this morning that Tinubu has a way of always getting what he wants... And that's because in Nigeria, every consequential person has his price, and baba is ready to pay!

Back then people were complaining about the country turning into a one party state.. Now, none of the arm of government is independent... The president has control over everybody, from top to bottom!

It's the system.

There's nothing anyone can just do about it.

There's no remedy!

President Bola Tinubu is on the right track.

The lawlessness in Rivers state is alarming and the president's action is commendable.
Stop exaggerating! Which lawlessness?

The whole North burnt down, and no state of emergency was declared...
Tinubu doesn't care about them,

He is interested in rivers crude oil and pretending he is doing the right thing, if ur state doesn't have oil, he gives no shit about u.
How come ur name is chijioke Charles?

But Fulani bandits, miscreants and
outlaws destroyed several electricity
distribution towers a few months back,
throwing about 6 Northern States into
over one month of darkness and nothing
happened.


Same Fulani bandits regularly make videos
boasting with highly sophisticated weapons,
daring and killing soldiers, talk less
of civilians killed daily and no stateof emergency in Niger, Katsina or Zamfara.

Rather a state of emergency should have been declared over Nigeria as a whole and the military then swiftly taking over. cool

You made a point but it is not the full reality. The mistake many of you are making is thinking that this is always about money. It is not. What you are witnessing are the actions of the first real politician after Nnamdi Azikiwe to become the president of Nigeria. Check the history.

Politics worldwide is a game of compromise. It has its own language. Many rookie and even some experienced analysts underestimate what a real politician can achieve when he has the power which helps him greatly with negotiations.

Pardon me if what you meant by price and payment is not specifically money but I've seen people use that a lot here.

Tinubu's approach goes beyond giving people money. He aligns with you.

Please can someone enlighten me on whether a State of Emergency was ever declared in Bornu and Zamfara, where full fledged war with terrorists are ongoing? angry

Sycophancy is a huge menace in Nigerian politics and simply thrives becasue of humongous corruption that feeds it.

Men have no honour and will defend anything so long as it feeds their avarice.

Would have been apt if you had said these when fubara was being urged on to destruction by all those iPob ignoramuses.

Well,this is Nigeria where anything goes. I just laugh when Tinubu ers comment here and on X, hailing him,giving him different titles,like Maradona,Jagaban,best politician ever bla bla bla.

They are carried away by emotions and euphoria to know that since Nigeria was created,every president, from military to civilians have always had their way. The powers assigned to the office of president are so massive,they will go away with anything. Buhari spent 8 solid years,nobody checkmated him. He executed all his plans, redesigned the naira,partly removed subsidy,built railway to Niger. Nobody queried him. So wats Tinubu doing so special from buhari that makes him to deserve all those flattering titles.

This is Nigeria. Tinubu can decide to declare state of emergency in all 36 states, nothing go hppn..d senate will approve it. It's not about being smart or intelligent but the power he holds. Mk una stop ur hailings abeg. Nothing is special about Tinubu

—Why Buhari no remove subsidy?
—Why Goodluck fold after he remove subsidy and reversed it
—Why Goodluck fold during the state of emergency he declared and respond by not removing governors?

Take it or leave it, Jagaban is a strong politician that has a can-do attitude than none of the president since 1999 can muster except probably OBJ

Goodluck never had his way.

He was challenged openly by governors and assembly severally.

Goodluck wouldn't have gotten away with something like this during his tenure.

Whose fault is it that good luck didn't have the intelligence to steer the ship of this very complex state.

His way of demonstrating this must be the destruction of the state house of assembly, and sacking of almost all the legislators and commissioners and Local government chairmen. His independent organisation of local government elections.

As if this is not enough he followed this with the destruction of national infrastructure of Gas and oil. Him food don done.

Obidients all this because this is the type of 9ja on fire that is their forte.

Well, Fubara should just lay low and not fight back. So that at the end of the 6 months, he will be Rivers governor again. He must not listen to those people who pushed him who could not do anything other than make noise after his suspension

In your dreams.....even fubara knows he is a goner.....by the time his file is brought out and he gets fired one single warning.....he will resign by himself and quietly go into retirement with what ever he is offered.....u really think tinubu and Wike are nice guys.....no one dares Cross those guys and remains the same.

As far as am concerned. We don't have a country called Nigeria.
I can categorically agree with Nnamdi kanu that Nigeria is a ZOO nation filled with wild animals.

the northern politician have seen a reason to remove a sitting governor in any state and impose their choice. They voted for this because they will use it in their advantage when they get power. It's so unfortunate to "educated" yourba tribe has been bringing in fundamental issues to the National polity
smileyoo: 7:44pm On Mar 20
This Rivers state of emergency is a politically motivated one, because you don't just use such a big stick on a state before you can checkmate excesses of just 2 political actors, moreover the state of emergency doesn't equate with the suspension of elected officials.
If T-pain had wanted to resolve this Rivers state crisis, he would have done so by prevailing on wike to stop disturbing the smooth governance in Rivers state, in the name of god-fatherism, and who is wike to disobey the president and commander in chief of Nigeria federation ?
all these actions in Rivers state are motivated by the need to control that state ahead of 2027 elections.
lol, the master strategist might as well be eye-ing Kano state as well, who knows ?
only time will tell .
sadly in the present day Nigeria, everything has a price tag, therefore anything is possible, even the absurd .
