@Gen_Buhar Interesting read....However, i didnt see anywhere you dpcumented how much of the money borrowed by Dubai was stolen by incompetent and thieving politicians....That will also help underscore what they achieved despite massive looting, if there were any

DUBAI WAS BUILT ON DEBT — NOT MAGIC. NIGERIANS NEED TO UNDERSTAND THIS. Please SHARE this post. Counter the noise and propaganda. When people point at Dubai today, they see skyscrapers, luxury, and global influence. What they don’t see is the decades of strategic borrowing, risk-taking, and painful decisions that built it. Let’s talk In the 1950s and 60s, Dubai was a poor desert trading post, heavily dependent on fishing and pearling. When oil was discovered in 1966, reserves were actually very limited compared to neighbors like Abu Dhabi. That’s when Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum made a bold decision: Borrow heavily to build infrastructure BEFORE wealth arrived. He took loans to finance: - Port Rashid (1972) - Jebel Ali Port (1979) — now one of the largest ports in the world. - Dubai World Trade Centre (1979) At the time, many critics called it reckless. Why build massive infrastructure with money you don’t yet have? But Rashid understood something powerful: “Build it, and the economy will come.” Fast forward to the 2000s under Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum: Dubai doubled down on debt-funded expansion: - Emirates Airline expansion - Palm Islands - Burj Khalifa By 2009, Dubai faced a debt crisis of about $80 billion. Yes — $80 BILLION. They had to be bailed out by Abu Dhabi. Yet today? Dubai is: A global logistics hub A tourism powerhouse A financial center One of the most visited cities in the world. NOW LET’S BRING IT HOME When President Bola Ahmed Tinubu borrows to fund infrastructure, many Nigerians shout: “Why are we borrowing?!” But here’s the truth: Borrowing is not the problem. Misuse is. Every serious economy in the world has used debt to grow: United States — over $30 trillion debt . China — massive infrastructure debt model. Japan — over 200% debt-to-GDP. Debt becomes dangerous only when: It is stolen It is wasted on consumption It doesn’t create productivity But when used for: Roads Railways Power Ports Industrial zones It becomes a tool for national transformation. THE REAL ISSUE NIGERIANS SHOULD FOCUS ON? Not just “borrowing” — but: What exactly are we borrowing for? Are projects completed? Are they generating economic value? Are states using increased allocations wisely? Because here’s another fact: Since subsidy removal, states are receiving significantly higher FAAC allocations — yet many are not translating that into visible development. I Maximillian Chisom Ugoji hereby submit to you 😂 that (make I pretend to be a lawyer small), Dubai didn’t become Dubai by playing safe. It took: Vision Debt Risk Discipline Nigeria cannot develop on: Fear Sentiment Political shouting Everything no be politics o. We must demand accountability, not reject strategy. Because the truth is simple: No nation builds world-class infrastructure without borrowing. NONE. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is borrowing to build infrastructure and I support him with my full chest. Please SHARE this post. Ugoji Maximillian

@dmightyangel @inecnigeria You are correct....I am talking about concerns he raised that should be taken seriously....reducing his apperance on this matter to only that stament and ignoring the issues in that section of the act is unfair

Since you typed this in English language, my assumption is that you can read and write..... If you calmly read what I wrote, I said that section 63 was the same way it was in the previous electoral act, meaning the Senate did not even touch it let alone making that section NEW or STRANGE... Can you point out the enlightenment Mike Igini brought to the same section that was never changed?

Ideally, Mike Igini ought to be invited for deliberately pushing narrative to incite the people against the National Assembly and @inecnigeria This guy went on AriseTV to say that something strange was inserted to section 63 of the electoral act 2026. Kindly check section 63 of electoral Act 2022 and the same provision in section 63 of electoral act 2026, you will notice that the National Assembly didn't even touch that aspect. The only thing that changed in section 63 is starting two words with Capital Letter as against small letter and using WHEN in place of IF in a particular place. Mike Igini has a lot of questions to answer!

@drpenking Sorry sorry sorry🤣🤣🤣🤣This woman should have been. a billionaire from the incident alone

This remains the most funny Television scene ever. NTA should be scrapped

@Dee_9889 He is very dull...Developing has much lower base, so their growth is expected to be geometric...Not already developed countries....He opens his mouth and say rubbish with confidence

Daniel BWALA got schooled on the IMF projected growth in the economy of different countries..

@yabaleftonline Nigeria has become tooth pick for every TDH

“Our education and English are good. If you listen to a Nigerian speak English, you’ll need a translator.” — Kenya’s President, William Ruto fires back at President, Tinubu after he spoke about Kenya’s economy.

@FinPlanKaluAja1 And they have launched an attack on this woman calling her incompetent....Once they cant explain or justify anything...They want to discredit

It's comparing priorities with scarce revenues

@channelstv He danced around, spoke a lot yet avoided to answer the question...If she had pressed him for neck, NBC will fine channels now

Bukola: How come the presidential Airfleet gets priority funding and ministries as critical as defence do not get their funding? Tope Fasua: Mentioning spending for the ministry of defence vs the presidential air fleet is comparing apples and oranges. [Tope Fasua is the Special Adviser to President Tinubu on Economic Affairs] #CTVMorningBrief

@FinPlanKaluAja1 psycophancy don't touch CAN

😂😂😂

@LegendaryJoe This video just made it worse...Lack of straightforward answers speaks to deep seated emptiness

The Full Video for proper context; Dear Ruffy, you do not need to scissor my response to engineer a false narrative for public consumption. This, again, is precisely why the NBC's reinforced mandate to sanitize the media space remains not only justified but urgent - lest half-baked, poorly groomed MCs of your variety continue to desecrate a noble profession. "Accountability is Key" - your own words. Yet here you are, peddling a cut-and-join clip as evidence. Accountability is key, yet you could not furnish the full context so the listening public might form their judgment free of your programmed bias and prefabricated sentiment. This is why we have always counselled you: acquire the appropriate training. Develop adequate competence. Learn to abide by professional standards rather than be perpetually ambushed by your own emotions. And so, finally - I do not merely challenge you, Rufai. I PUT IT TO YOU. Invite the Legendary Joe to your Arise studio. Any topic. Any morning. And let us see whether you survive a single session with him in your customary offensive and accusatory mode. At least Bukola here had the residual decency to eventually fall silent and receive superior facts with dignity. You will not last that long. Good Morning, Severally.

@39billion Now....I am loving this....GK ode

@Mrbankstips 1-1

Your prediction for the match?

@cabeecroft23 Your views are quite understandable....But let us not pretend we do not know how things work in Nigeria...All these agencies are tools of politicians to oppress and cower...Have you seen the interpretation of cyber bullying? The powerful people just use it as they like

Rufai, NBC, as the name implies regulates the broadcast industry. Again, the industry. Your organisation is therefore responsible for the content and should always make sure they do not air anything that violates our extant laws. It is the duty of your station to bleep out offensive statements and to indemnify itself by issuing a public statement disassociating the station from conducts of guests. While on air, you are bound by the code of conduct of the NBC which your orgorganisations signed up to uphold. This your bravado is actually misplaced, misleading and insincere.

@MrEnugu1 These are the people NBC want to protect....so they can waltz into the studio cross their legs and evade accountability....

We’re getting more Oseni Answer the question Oga n stop forming rubbish

@OlayinkaLere When guest lie. like they always do nko???? Agbara ngu yin ni

"Henceforth, any anchor or presenter found to have: expressed personal opinion as fact, bullied or intimidated a guest, denied fair hearing to opposing views, or otherwise compromised neutrality, shall be deemed to have committed a Class B breach." NBC issues formal notice to broadcasters over code breaches in news, current affairs, and political programmes.

@OgarEmmaOwogeka It is only in Nigeria that "Constant" electricity does not mean Continuous,uninterrupted power supply without outages or fluctuations...Also, it is only in Nigeria the words of public officials have to be explained and given a situable meaning depending situation...Oshey 🔫🔫🔫

He didn’t say 24 hours electricity always.. he said “If I don’t give you constant electricity in four years, don’t vote for me for a second term.” It means improved electricity supply with minimal outages. I don’t know where you are staying so I can’t speak for you but where I am staying, everyone can testify that the power supply has greatly improved. Again, he has signed the ELECTRICITY ACT that allows your states to be able to generate electricity for you people and he has funded them well to do that, has your state government thought about providing that for your guys?

@Dr_statesman @JoshuaSamuell This should have been the main tweet...🤣🤣🤣...Now we know

@JoshuaSamuell Even if Tinubu does nothing, if all he do is to take care of himself I still prefer him to gbajue

Doctors are not well paid, I know I am a Dr, and I know very well that I am grossly underpaid. I know the Tinubu I am supporting. He doesn't rush to do what is not sustainable he will definitely position Nigeria's health sector among its peers at the gobla stage soonest. What Tinubu can not do is not gbajue that will do it.

@aleeygiwa When they are adequately compesated and funding to perform their duties

What would make you trust the police more?
