That "Jacob Ajayi is stupid" is not one of the characterizations that anyone on earth can correctly identify me with; but I am a proud Nigerian of Yoruba stock. That my leaders in Nigeria most especially Godwin Emefiele, CBN governor is acting stupidly is seriously concerning! NLC is protesting the scarcity of Naira currency and our CBN responds by wanting to flood the market with "old" naira currency which have its lifespan extended to 31 December 2023! There is no logic in here; from now until that expiration date per SCON, old naira notes that circulate back to the CBN should be withdrawn and new naira notes should circulate out of the banks so that the withdrawal of the old naira notes is without any hardship as the remaining 283days for the old naira notes is an adequate time to mop up 56.6Trillion naira notes out of circulation. This is how things work and I am currently thinking about whether my central banking and monetary economists in Nigeria with tons of Ph.Ds are actually thinking or NOT!

I can understand people just running their mouth as Baba Ahmed is doing here; the Supreme Court of Nigeria is the interpreter of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria: nobody or group of persons is competent to force their misguided reading of the provisions of the constitution on His Lordship Ariwoola and the Supreme Court of Nigeria in general. The provision is in simple English: Winner of the presidential election has to have the majority of the votes and score at least 25% of the votes cast in two-thirds of the states of the federation and not less than 25% of the votes cast in the FCT; Abuja. Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the APC presidential candidate in the 25 February 2023 presidential election met both provisions in plain English not Yoruba-English, Igbo-English or Hausa-English and I would appreciate Nigerians given credit of at least academic excellence to our professors who attain their ivory-tower status by dint of hard-work and not "honoris causa!" Professors Mahmud and Jega, his predecessor deserve that academic recognition.

Consistency will yield result. Mahmood Yakubu cannot be let go of the criminalities he perfected.

For how long will the elder state men, religion GOs and Imams continue to manipulate the Truth. God has shown them what to do so as to bring lasting peace in the nation, but they refused. God will arise to Judge them. And He will fight for the masses and install a man after His own heart starting from 1 year interim, to lead the nation out of struggling to a place of rest.

NLC is more influenced by politics. This time of Muslims' fasting and the fast approaching Easter celebration,all considered holy times of the two mentioned religious bodies is when you want people to abandon religious activities/prayers and go mad on the streets in the name of protest and strike. How long has the petroleum and cashless policy issues/problems lingered? In the case of minimum wage not been implemented in only one particular state of Nigeria, what did you do? Please, spare us time for other important things.

Keyamo is just summoning courage to say all he has said, he knows right inside of him that his principal will fail woefully at the tribunal. Why didn't he make mention of the drug case that implicates his principal... anyway, we are going to watch and see how the whole thing plays out at the end.

They are disgracing themselves anywhere. These were the security agents who thought that they would have been taken to election grounds for money or destroy lives. Imagine such a disgrace to Nigeria! Policemen in Niger Republic and other security agents there are highly respected, go and ask!

The world is now a global village where what affects one country should affect the other relating countries, for instance developing and developed countries alike, What can the EU do to correct the wrong for the first time in the history of Nigeria the most populous country in Africa?,to ensure solid adherence to the rules and guidelines for elections,respect to citizens right to live,participate in civic functions like elections without restrictions as it was in the countrys constitution,respect to the rule of law In Nigeria etc. Finally minimise,the arrogance of political office holders in their dealings with innocent citizens who bear the brunt of hardships unnecessarily created by them,whereas.their children school and live in other countries to the detriment of the tax payers money.It is quite enormous Nigeria needs help EU

I love the healing process. Does a brokenheart heals in a few minutes? In one sentence, how do you describe the governorship and house assembly elections conducted in Kaduna state? Who will initiate the healing process there? He who knows the right thing and fails to do it , unto him it is a sin.

If his is as result of sele out, may he never returned back, but,if it is ordinary, may God have mercy on him.

People who were sleeping under bridges during Tinubu administration as the then governor of Lagos state just want to gain recognition in Lagos. Nobody, I repeat nobody has right to intimidate tribe in Lagos,not to talk about intimidating the Igbos. The Igbos own Lagos state as the history of Lagos can't be complete without the Igbo people. Buhari kept quiet because he is still shocked about the outcome of the presidential election. Tinubu,has no right to comment now because, the staff of office of the president has not been given to him yet. Every happening about the 2023 election is still a mirage to many souls. Inec has begun a fight.....

He is an illiterate looking for recognition.

Some useless people's comments need not to be published. Just imagine the life of a person who lives and work and even married in the motor park.

This is terrible and disheartening. How can the pilot not see the unknown gun men but can see the Solders. Does it mean that the gunmen would've disguised or camouflaged? May the soul of our gallant solder rest in peace.

This was a one time president of Nigeria. He led well but, what's happening now? It has now come to a stage of do or die and bribery, rigging and corruption. What and where is the hope of the youths?????

Inec and its structures had lost its integrity and credibility in the world. Students,may hence forth begin to question the authenticity of the lectures they are receiving at the Universities. Riggings,as we are meant to understand can be practiced during the course of anyone study. What must I go to do in house of my students during exams ?????

As for this week's election,they will be put to shame and woe unto them.

The reason given is so puerile and laughable!

Don't worry, history shall tell. He who does not know and knows not that he does not know is not an Earthly creature. There are some administrations that cannot be taught and studied in schools because they are not beneficial at all. Riddle is good!!!!

Really! But the Oba who went on national TV threatening to drawn any Igbo man who voted against Tinubu is walking freely on the street. As well as the chief of Agberos @MC Oluomo who openly threatened Igbos voting LP in Lagos. You guys are a big joke.

Wonderful experience

Who are you? What are you doing after your education, ranting for politicians. You are criticising someone better of you. Please go and sit down and lick the fanta drops in your hand.

It is a shameful thing to lose integrity. But, I call on people to handle issues with the fear of God knowing that there is no peace for the wicked.

Whatsoever, the bad governors think they can do against the voters is just an empty threat. You can't fool yourself and think that the hour to remove you will not come. Is it sharing of one sachet spaghetti that people you subjected into suffering will eat for the next four years? You are not good, simple!!

Nice PR script, sponsored of course. There is nothing like Delta Igbo. You are Igbo or you are not. Elumelu is a strategist and a crafty opportunist. Fair practice in business. Tinubu is not yet the President so the accolades should wait until after May 29th. Buhari is still on the seat. Various court cases abound and no one can determine their final outcome, even though the trajectory is inclined towards a perfidious and integrity-challenged judicial pronouncement. All the same that visit was premature and could be a smokescreen for other permutations that might arise as the weeks roll by. The Gubernatorial elections might be the game changer. We await.

Na thunder wey dey do press up from Badagry go fire Wike!!

Pls lamido is not former gov of river state. Correct that paragraph

Woke is shamelessly cowardly.

In Nigeria everybody knows everything, nobody can accept blame. Yet the driver has regretted after the heads are off and too late to for lives. Woe to the driver.

Go to court and ask for compensation if you think it is not true what PDP is saying.

Please if I may ask, does it means that INEC have not competent and liable lawyers or advisers to take note that even before the election, Shekarau have already left the party.
