Where are those Nigerians that have been abusing Mugabe of Zimbabwe because of the state of the Zimbabwean economy even though powerful countries like the US and Britain used financial institutions like the World bank and IMF to wreck the economy of Zimbabwe just because Mugabe decided to right the wrongs done to his people by the British who killed their people and stole their lands?

Those that argue otherwise fail to tell us why states like Osun, Ekiti and Oyo all in the South West are not as developed as Lagos in terms of infrastructural developments.

Can PMB probe the 2016 national budget without indicting himself since he presented the same budget abi appropriation bill on national TV to the national assembly? How are we sure that some of the bilateral agreements he signed since becoming president are in the interest of Nigeria considering the fact that he either didn't bother going through the 2016 national budget aka budget of padded yams or he just didn't give a damn? The president of...
GEJ and his economic team used part of our foreign reserves to defend the naira so that Nigerians would not be hit with serious economic hardship yet some Nigerians especially those in APC condemned the action. Today, some of the people that condemned such patriotic action are complaining that naira is becoming weaker and weaker and are forced to cough out N325 to get just $1!!! Who then is the shortsighted person now? What is the...
