“I think Bola Tinubu is sincerely telling the Bayelsa masses that "High prices is here." So a vote for him is vote for outrageous increase in prices of goods and services.”

“Nigerians, make una wise o. Tinubu said, "HAPPINESS IS HERE, HIGH PRICES IS HERE" what kind of contradiction is that? How can there be happiness where there is high prices? If una no wise na all of us go suffer am. After 8yrs of Buhari misrule, we need a breath of fresh air, abeg.”
Blessing Emmanuel wrote
“In 2015 Buhari promised Nigerians from TOP to BOTTOM yet Nigerians voted for him.
“2022 Tinubu is promising Nigerians HIGH PRICES, I'm very sure that history will repeat itself again in 2023. Nigerians and suffering is like bread and butter. I won't be surprised if Tinubu wins.”
