Nigeria-Oil producing country losing the entire value in the value chain… ooouuch😢 that sunk real deep. Much respect from kenya🇰🇪 . Dele Farotimi cannot be ignored.
The great man of this generation who is not afraid to say his mind in public affairs and political commentary. Dele Farotimi is the only one who has the fearless charisma of Chief Gani Fawehnmi.
I will never accept that there is no hope for the nation regardless of how bad things are. Truth is there are millions of souls in this nation who are never going to leave, deliberately or not. I salute them all and wish them the best.
There's hope for Nigeria. People enjoy negativity and will rather die complaining about their government than think and proper solutions. I choose not to join in cursing my country and its leaders. I rise above it now and forever. Every country has its difficulties, no where is perfect
Maybe you should start naming the good things in Nigeria. A country is built on systems, the educational is completely gone so tell me the platform to build the future of Nigeria.
its just a shame that our country is decaying gradually and if one talks they will what to shout u up... Mr Dele Farotimi God will continue to bless you and keep telling everyone that will hear the truth.
I can listen to him over and over again, and the few times I have had opportunity of meeting him, I tell him how much I respect him. Keep being you Mr Dele Farotimi! Nigeria is blessed with men like you who dare to speak out in love of your country
They can sue him, but won't, because it's a waste of time. There's nothing to be benefited from suing him. The man is always talking abrasively and nothing positive comes out of it. In this interview, he has said many things that are actionable, but no one literally has the time to waste suing him.
They can sue him; but keep him on the outside and that can suffice for them!!! Besides- truth in the Courts (though compromised!) could be too disastrous!!!
@@MrMethodist The truth is bitter. Most Nigerians prefer to hear empty sweet words. Just because a man speaks the truth does not mean he is negative. When a parent scolds a child does that mean the parent wants the worse for the child?
Uncle Dele we are proud of you an intelligent guru. I subscribe to this because of you. Your pain for bad governance is well appreciated by all Nigerians. May God protect you. Continue with your crusade for a New Nigeria. We believe in God it shall come to pass. Amen. We love you.
You are merely listening to someone waffling and throwing tantrums to the gallery. Must we burn down the house just because we want to light the cigarette? Advise your children to study hard and perhaps lady luck will smile on them and do the change Nigeria needs. Crossing Sahara desert, and deserting jobs and selling their properties to go abroad and be enslaved will do Nigeria no good. My one cent sir.
@@user-br2yl7lb6t Nigeria is NOT gone. Of course, the situation of the country isn't helped when the likes of you keep running it down. Prosperity is already on it's way; brewing quietly underground and will return to NGR soon; whether you choose to be a part of it or not.
It’s a good thing you a fellow Yoruba says so! Heaven knows, if I say anything to the contrary- it’s because I’m tribalistic!!! One’s proud to call themselves Nigerian- with brains, Boldness and application like his
I’ve been saying this same thing for months. I watched Venezula crumble to its knees. An oil rich country that became disastrous, at some point, a large portion of the Venezuelan population couldn’t afford to buy Bread to eat. The Venezuelan Bolívar (currency) became useless. The same trajectory the Nigerian Naira is on. This is very scary. Our country’s problem runs deep. Oh God of creation, direct our noble cause And guide our leaders right . Help our youth the truth to know 🙏🏽.
Venezuela followed a Marxist system of operating the economy. And of course Marxism has been proven to not be able to stand. Nigeria, on the other hand, is supposed to be free market economy but corruption, criminal leaders with no vision other than embezzlement and supporting the political elites in keeping that wealth for themselves. What is wrong with Nigeria is plain to see and inevitable to how we are ruled.
Wow! Agba oni tan lorile oo, AMIN🙏🏾 Mr. Dele, ese, e ku ohun💖 There is no one that pass through Fela Anikulakpo Kuti, who is not revolutionary in nature. I’m proud to say that I’m one of the students of Fela’s shrine. But my in ability to accept GOD given purpose, or the lack of courage to speak up against the powerful people in Nigeria, has ended up messing with my mental health; unlike brother Dele Farotimi who is courageously insane to defend birth rights as a Nigerian, I on the other hand, has now realistically become cowardly insane, because I’m afraid of what people would say, and the inevitable, death. Brother Olateju, I appreciate what you are using your platform to do. May GOD continue to increase you in the mighty name of our LORD, JESUS CHRIST, AMEN🙏🏾🌸
We need to learn a lot about Nigeria from Brother Dele. What Nigerians citizens need to do to move forward. I will search for the book he has written to learn more and become conscious in Nigeria situations.
The people that criticize this man and fail to see that his part of the few still keeping the sanity of some Nigerians. If people like this wish to align with the govt, dont you think they will be up with top politicians sharing our resources. Same people that hails fela today were his critics in time past. Just see the truth in what he's saying.
Teju Babyface has held me hostage with his podcasts. In one day, I've watched about 4 episodes. You ate my entire weekend, but I'm glad because you bring so much value with your interviews
I grew up in Lagos with the mentality that people like Dele Giwa and Dele Farotimi are worthy of the "Omoluabi" title. So it was a huge shock to then see some of the same elders who beat this into my morality in church and my neighbourhood now calling Tinubu the thief an "Omoluabi" because of the expectation of crumbs falling from his table. Make no mistake, I will never falter in my understanding of who to call Omoluabi. Dele Farotimi ni Omoluabi
what i liked most about uncle ferotimi is the self confidence ,i got that too....people don't feel comfortable around me either for saying the truth and fearless but pray we don't die in the process of making good impact in our society...God will continue to straighten you
Mr Dele is effortlessly sound, I could listen to him all day. His verbiage, views and reasoning ability are worth emulating. I will like to use the Senegal election as a landmark to assure Nigerians that the change we deserve is near. The African people are wiser and smarter.Relatively speaking, any person above the age of 50 has no business running for an election.
Age unless there is a serious health issue is NOT THE PROBLEM. I like to refer to the age old football saying if you are good enough you are old enough. In the context of Nigeria using your flawed reasoning about no one over the age of 50 has no business running for election. Character, Vision and Aptitude is what is needed.
@@gerardonochie3408 The world is evolving rapidly, many countries are beginning to support younger, educated and vibrant candidates for president. We are tired of voting analog politicians who can hardly operate an iPhone. Ain’t you tired of maladministration? Ain’t you tired of embezzlement? Ain’t you tired of the living condition of most Nigerians? It is time for older politicians to retire bcos we’ve seen enough, they have nothing to offer!
This is the best sermon i have heard all week!!! I pray for Peter Obi and his support made of ppl like you Sir. May God help us realise our part to play in birthing the new Nigeria.
That interview was thought-provoking. A lot came out of that conversation. My takeaway is that if we do not come out to ask for good governance, things will be far worse in Nigeria than it is currently.
Thank you Boda Olateju for uploading this video, God bless you sir. It’s always a pleasure listening to the words of wisdom by Uncle Dele, God will continue to protect, guide and guard you in all ways. More wisdom, knowledge and Understanding!
Dele Farotimi and very few of his likes stands out. A very brilliant individual. I’ll never get tired listening to him. And Teju welcome to Houston, no wonder you’ve not been so active on the local scene. You made a very wise decision to relocate with your family. I wish you the best
Awesome interview. If you call Mr Farotimi 100 times, I will hear him more than 100 times. Thank you sir. Thank you Teju. May the Lord bless you all. E se a dupe.
Thank you so much Sir, thank for giving us hope constantly we are proud you our generation will remain grateful for your fearless, courageous and sincerity
Thank you sirs! I have sought an opportunity to say Thank you sir for every truth you have said, that we feel irrespective of our ethnic differences. Thank you for explaining who we are again as Nigerians. I pray we can correct our ills.
Thumbs up for my Icon Mr.Dele Farotimi! You are indeed a source inspiration to many people, young and old in the enlightenment of Nigerians about the perfidious system and its operators.You inspire me in particular and I admire you so much! Keep up with your Divine call and God surrounds you forever.Knowledge is power. Enlightenment is always the tool needed for the liberation of Nigerians from the evil system that had been imposed on the country by an infinitesimal section of our population .God bless sir!

Bros Teju, the person who did this edit deserves a raise! Even though you are continents apart, it still felt like you were in the same room. Kudos
I thought they were together. You’re brilliant
Dele Farotimi and Prof Usman Yusuf are among the Very few who speaks the truth. Well said Sir 👏🏾
Nigeria-Oil producing country losing the entire value in the value chain… ooouuch😢 that sunk real deep. Much respect from kenya🇰🇪 . Dele Farotimi cannot be ignored.

I will never accept that there is no hope for the nation regardless of how bad things are.
Truth is there are millions of souls in this nation who are never going to leave, deliberately or not. I salute them all and wish them the best.
Our parents said the same thing back in the 80s. And here we are today.
There's hope for Nigeria. People enjoy negativity and will rather die complaining about their government than think and proper solutions. I choose not to join in cursing my country and its leaders. I rise above it now and forever. Every country has its difficulties, no where is perfect
Speak for yourself please
I can't see the name "Dele Farotimi" and not drop by to listen to a man full of wisdom.
He's not a patriotic nigerian. Everything in Nigeria can't be wrong
Maybe you should start naming the good things in Nigeria. A country is built on systems, the educational is completely gone so tell me the platform to build the future of Nigeria.
Are the stealing politicians patriotic?
My too! His draws my rapt attention. ❤
Honestly I found the short clip on Facebook I have to come down here to watch the full interview.
I love this man. He is boldly frank, fearless and straight forward. May GOD keep and preserve him. Amen
Amen
He has snatched it, grabbed it but can't run with it. 😅

Dele is one of the most sound mind you can listen to in this life
Very bold too
He isn't.
The lone voice in the wilderness no one is listening to. I'm proud to be a Nigerian because people like Dele Farotimi live there.
Word!😮
@@hopealivewithevang.olubunm2287Great Man
"God will preserve those he will preserve. " Absolutely! You are preaching sir 🙌
Dele is one of the soundest minds in that country.
Mr Farotimi!!!!!
What a man!
If only Nigerians ever listened to their patriots, but we don't do. Posterity will be kind to you Sir, Dele Farotimi.
What patriots? Patriots that live abroad. Lmao. Nigerians sha
I can listen to Mr Dele Farotimi speak all day…Man is too articulate 👏👏
The solution is not difficult. Most of the citizens are irresponsible and idle jobless beggars day and night 😊
I love this man! Truth knows no bound!! Maybe this country will be salvaged someday, but I doubt it.
Protect DELE……. We need him in the future 🙌🏿🙏🏿🙌🏿
God will protect him and his household including all his well wishers.
I like this man wow
He is very brave, and that’s because they can’t sue him he’s a lawyer he knows his rights
They can sue him, but won't, because it's a waste of time. There's nothing to be benefited from suing him. The man is always talking abrasively and nothing positive comes out of it. In this interview, he has said many things that are actionable, but no one literally has the time to waste suing him.

I have never seen how one would always be happy to hear this man speak... I am always uplifted hearing him speak
The Nigerian establishment will not like this one o. Make I go carry my drink and popcorn, receive sense from Broda Dele and Ogbeni Olateju.😅
May the Lord protect Dele Farotimi he reminds me of the Great Gani Fawehinmi.
We need to learn a lot about Nigeria from Brother Dele. What Nigerians citizens need to do to move forward. I will search for the book he has written to learn more and become conscious in Nigeria situations.

How can you compare this clown to Dele Giwa
This interview should be immortalized! This man speaks! Sense!
Unborn generations must hear this!😢
I love listening to Mr Dele, I feel I am expressing my anger about Nigeria through just listening to him
I love this man - Dele Farotimi , i am your protege from a distance
what i liked most about uncle ferotimi is the self confidence ,i got that too....people don't feel comfortable around me either for saying the truth and fearless but pray we don't die in the process of making good impact in our society...God will continue to straighten you
i can never stop following this man's speech...
What you all expect when politicians and government officials were embezzling funds more than 40yrs ago with no accountability
Telling the truth is not an offense; it's right so to do.
This guy . Dele Farotimi . You are too much . Damm too brilliant. Great guy !!!!!!
This is the one of the few men of integrity still left in Nigeria.... I can't get enough of his wisdom any time he speaks 😊😊😊😊
This is one of my favourite episode
Great job teju
Hi Teju, your guest is very factual and very honest, i like him always straight to point…
Teju im super proud of you for your sharp intellect and eloquence, obviously, you are far beyond a Comedian or compere... Great concept , great impact
God will bless Rotimi for all ways saying the truth. ❤❤❤❤❤
I can listen to this man all day ❤
Me too ❤
I'll really like to get my hands on Uncle Dele's books
A unique character, consistent, forthright, the double edged sword for justice, a lone conscience of the people. The man Dele Farotimi
But an old f00l for saying this
God bless u Mr.Teju.
