The plan by President Tinubu to pay ₦8000 monthly to 12 million households as fuel subsidy removal palliatives is commendable. It gives a human face to the harsh economic necessity of petrol subsidy withdrawal.

But to help our nation grow, I would suggest to the President that he ties the ₦8000 monthly payment to the condition that children in recipient families MUST attend school and have their payment vouchers signed by the principal/headmaster of their school proving that they attended school throughout that month, failure of which they will not be paid.

That way, Nigeria will reduce her current population of 20 million out-of-school children. And it will have an immediate impact on our economy, as educated children tend to be healthier, less likely to engage in terrorism and criminality, and also less likely to be teenage parents.

Furthermore, as a nation, we should not only give fish to people experiencing poverty. We should also teach willing Nigerians how to fish.

I, therefore, recommend to the President that he may want to provide free training and business grants (not loans, but grants) to at least half a million Nigerian youths to enable them to start up verifiable small and medium-scale enterprises. Nigeria's situation is similar to that of the United States of the 1930s, and this was how President FDR Roosevelt empowered Americans through the New Deal.

In that way, the President will help Nigerian youths to help themselves as well as to help Nigeria.

Once again, good job, and kudos to the President. If he, however, does wrong, he should also expect knocks.

Foolish Reno! So his resolve now is to support any senseless and noxious economic policy in order to ingratiate himself to a criminal mandate place holder?

The referee said fowl!!!

All those who have been complaining of suffering on Nairaland since Tinubu became the President and Commander in Chief
of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria, such people like Racoon, Specialadvicer, 001Lagos, jmoore and the rest of their likes should not miss this opportunity for themselves and their families to ease their poverty and sufferness.

Instead of giving 12 million family N8000 monthly which it won't still reach the poorest why can't FG collaborate with states and get at least (100) coasters buses for each state and maintain old or slide cost increase of previous transport amount.

Any stipend meant for the poor hardly reach the poorest rather politician will capture & turn it to political empowerment for their political cronies/ relatives.
As for Reno he is hungry doing all he can to please Tinubu

How much can cure your poverty? You are always complaining of suffering.

What is most important at the moment is that, you should not miss this golden opportunity. Make sure you submit your name.

Beggars can’t be choosers, take your N8,000 and be happy you got something. If you don’t like it, go and hussle

Tinubu that only his breakfast per day is 3 million naira wants to give a family of 12 people N8,000 per month for both breakfast, launch and dinner. I don't blame those that voted the fool into power.

Damn!

Reno is a Fool and should be ignored. The drug lord is out to cripple Nigeria completely. Massive looting has just begun.

3m is an understatement. Tinubu and his family currently eat anything they want. He can possibly fly overseas and eat and then return back to Nigeria. His supporters are hailing him for the 8k scam he proposed to give them

Omokri is a sane opposition

God bless the FRN

Reno should tell us why with same mouth he condemned tradermoni he is commending 8k.

@Reno, I have a job for you. Just DM me so that you can be useful to yourself.

If you are waiting for Tinubu to offer you a job after your charade at Chattam House last year, you will wait till eternity.
