GBAM!
Just the TRUTH!.
Both The States Governors - aka- the Emperors and Federal Govt- Ministers and-Agencies( MDAs - DISCOS,NNPC,etc)are the real Problems of Nigeria.
Afterall those Funds should be for the Masses Development!
•How did Jakande in Lagos-established - 1st Radio Station,
-1st Television Station,
-1st- State University,in Lagos,with -Multiple- Secondary and Primary Schools,etc,
-Multiple -Housing Projects ( estates) in ALL the Local govt,
-Mini-Water Works - within 4- yrs ,until Buhari - came to truncate our Democracy then.We want Answers Please!
•Was the Money being shared then as Big and Homongous as it is Now?
•Awon OLE NLA - are on Parade.in Nigeria and we can't Continue like this!

You even went far bro. I only mentioned the housing estate that jakande built with lagos money, so those shouting could stop. Had Buhari not scuttled our democracy which he later claimed to have loved decades later, just to rule Nigeria and suck the resources which IBB didn't allow him to achieve back then, pa jakande would have done the lagos lite rail project within the 8 years set deadline. I trusted him for that. Time won't permit me to talk about the Lekki-epe road which jakande developed. Na water full everywhere with only a tiny road in-between.

Since 1999, Tinubu and his cohorts have been using same to campaign, almost 30 years later, they are still on it, squandering our money. Tinubu alone bought 3 jets, I don't want to talk about ther assets he had even he's ot dangote who's an industrialist. Ruling lagos successfully and with great development isn't a rocket science and ambode had proved that to us. With all the massive projects done by him in less than 4 years,Lagos still recorded budget surplus, imagine.

My people always attack me each time I express my displeasure towards this man. I pray he lives long. Lagosians will realise how much this man had retarded our growth after hrs gone. Nobody lives forever.

The Oil Mining Licences and Oil Producing Licenses should be issued to State that Resources are exist, and not the Elites from different locations who in turn invite foreign companies for JV with sharing formular going to OPL owner, Oil Company and Federal.

OML/OPL should belong to indigenous States, then mined by Nigerian owned Oil company and revenue shared accordingly.

Two entities should be stamped out. (1) The IBBs, The Adenugas,The Alakijas, the Danjumas etc etc. These people are just billionaires from our commonwealth not because they are smarter, but because they have a deal with those who believe they own the country.

YorubaNiBaba:
pls wetin dey that state, abi nah ogogoro the mumu governor dey talk about

Question From Yorubas that love south south people

darikhua:
What kind of disunited talk is this from a governor?

Only people from the north yarn dis, but where the gold money 💰 zamfara and other de generate

darikhua:
What kind of disunited talk is this from a governor?

You better just keep quiet there. Why are they not sharing other resources in the country except oil and gas money. They are exploring gold, lithium and the rest. We don't hear of amount made through selling of gold, they have started exploring lithium we haven't heard what Nigeria will get from it. The rest are secretive.

Creamypie:
See this thief. With only 8 local government, of which some parts are water, its not an excuse for you and ur gang to steal aggressively.b4 any person attack me, I be deltan. Delta and bayelsa suppose be another Lagos, considering the 17 billion monthly location minus 13% monthly oil derivation alone. Mind u, bayelsa has just 8 l.gs.no need allowing our governors to be in charge of our resources. They will all be looted

You know nothing my brother. Is it about the numbers of local government or the numbers of humans that live in the State. Or because they were even cheated in numbers does that mean that they don't have population.
Try do a research as a governor on how you will spend 17 billion naira than come out and speak again.

Good talk. Very good.
One day Nigeria will implode over this very issue. Seizing the resources and revenue of few viable states and sharing it to useless redundant states (which were created in the first place for revenue collection ), just imagine!

You've said it all. We're tired of this pretentious so-called One Nigeria. Imagine the environmental damages caused by the oil explorations. We're tired of feeding the entire nation, the laws should be reviewed. Upon all that Bayelsa and the Niger Delta state has contributed they still have the guts to say Bayelsa cannot survive without federal allocations, my question is were does the money being shared monthly by the 36 states comes from, is it not from crude oil proceeds from Bayelsa and other Niger Delta states.

Faiththatworks:
I totally agree with the Governor of Bayelsa state,it's madness to claim Bayelsa is insolvent and can't survive without Federal Allocation,yet its oil and gas revenue is shared by 35 other states every month.
I believe it's high time the revenue due to the oil producing states be increased to 50%.
It's financial laziness for states like Osun,Kogi, Zamfara,Lagos and all the other states to expect revenue from the Oil and gas mined in Niger Delta state.
What did these states contribute financially to the mining of oil and gas in the Niger Delta states to expect any form of revenue.
The bible tells me you reap what you sow,what have these states sowed in the Niger Delta states in the last 30 years that they are continually paid revenue from the Oil and gas mined in these regions.
Enough of the Unity Fear,let every state in Nigeria mine their natural resources,keep 50% of the resources and transfer what's left to the Federal purse.
If anyone isn't comfortable with this suggestion,then it's time to start rethinking this project called Nigeria.
God bless Nigeria

Chasing shadows.

Eriokanmi:
Tell me, how much allocation is lagos getting? Lagos can stand alone and prosper without any allocation from the fed govt. Jakande built the largest housing estate in africa the 80s under 4 years without oil money. How much was fed allocation then?. He also didn't borrow. Tell Niger delta leaders to sit tight and think of how to develop their regions instead of crying. Most of them live in lagos and Abuja. I know one past governor who has 40 hotels in lagos and Abuja alone. The tax paid by those hotels won't go to Niger delta pockets

We'd have fared much better today but we have super corrupt man at the helms, whumo squanders our money and bought 3 jets . No human lives forever. Lago shall be free someday

You are a liar,jakande borrowed massively, and Lagos was enjoying huge oil revenues

Why would zamfara personalize their gold? Do we really practice one Nigeria?

mytime24:
Zamfara personalised their Gold 🪙



So d governor mayb right

Proofs pls. You must provide one oo. Im waiting. Thanks

Keep quiet there you think we don't know the history, I don't blame you I blame our past leaders who brought this mess call one Nigeria just to reap were you people did not sow.

NorthernAgender:
Some of you are just stark illiterate you think oil exploration just started with just land drilling without putting head together can your niger delta pay the amount of money made by both north, and southwest before oil exploration started.

Eriokanmi:
Proofs pls. You must provide one oo. Im waiting. Thanks

Go research properly, you'll find proof

Good one from the governor! Let all Southern governors wake up to this line of thought and collectively work on it.
Confederal system of government would work perfectly for Nigeria and not only improve the rate of growth and development among the states,but speed it up.
In Confederalism, more power is vested within the constituent administrative divisions of a country, while the centre is weak.
That's what Nigeria needs at this point in time.With that, every state can develop at its own pace.
Presidential and Federal systems have outlived their usefulness in Nigeria and lost their spark.

You are very correct, a sort of confederate system whereby power is vested within the constituent administrative division is ideal, but its not practical given our checkered history, our ability to abuse power and greed. It will be a complete state of anarchy. We would have 36 mini empires ruled by authoritarian rulers instead of the absolute single Emperor as is the case today. Imagine people like Wike, Uzodinma, Ganduje, etc, having absolute control over a police or paramilitary force they would not only oppress their political opponents, they would suppress their people.

As I said in a proper democracy whereby the states assemblies and the courts can check the powers of the governor, it can work. In Nigeria, the legislature is an appendage of the government, while the courts are powerless, afraid to defy a governor.

Show is how you have utilized the 13% + faac allocation before spewing rubbish. Clueless governor

coming from someone that receives 13% monthly allocation oil revenue,governing one of the least populated state in the country.

See my brother just wake up,..Abuja and Lagos are among top Africa great Cities been built by Niger Delta Oil Funds. Tomorrow they will be telling people to go back to their state in Same country..[ complete the post.This cheating must stop]

Yet today they will still insult your people and tell them to leave Lagos for them.
Fight for your states - nothing like one Nigeria please.

What did Jonathan an Indigene of Bayelsa state do about the sharing formula?

Jonathan looted the amnesty money of Niger Deltans to set up Air peace

Sapeleboy911:
Although I don't like this Diri of a man, I am in full support of what he is saying. Why share only crude oil from the Niger Delta? What happens to other mineral resources, being mined daily in other regions of the country.

Why not allow the states to manage their resources themselves and remit to the FG? This is unfair to the ND regions I must say.

These are some of the reasons that made me support and voted for GEJ, hoping that him being from the ND region, will make some amendments. But being a bu**f*n and an asslicker he ended up trying to please his cabal to the detriment of his own region.

Since the GEJ mess, I don't go near a polling unit, or waste precious time that I will use to place bets on useless elections again. As far as bet365 is not banned in Nigeria, citizens can continue voting for useless leaders, na them go still hear am.

Jonathan did not please any cabal.
He looted massively when in office.

The money he used to set up air peace was Niger Deltan amnesty funds.

You made an excellent point, brother.If not this our checkered history and all that, Confederation would work perfectly for us.

MEEVEET:
See them above emergency lovers of South South condemning Diri

E done reach the main issue now they are attacking South South for demanding their right

Tomorrow someone from Ogun or Oyo ot even kwara would tell someone from IMO that produce the gas that powers Lagos to leave Lagos

If yorubas wants to claim Lagos then they should fight for restructuring or regional government
. Let me see if they would survive the recession in 20 years

Which Imo get gas?
Wetin you dey smoke?

No resources in your barren mkpurumini region.

YouAreNobody:

Read this your useless comment and all yourself if your have any sense. The topic doesn't concern igbos in any way but you and you fellow imbeciles just had to drag them into it. Tinubu's conduit pipe had been draining Lagos for eons but you're not concerned. In your entire region, aside Lagos which was built with collective wealth and was Nigeria's capital, which state is doing better than the states in the SE? Is it Oyo state, Ogun state, ondo? Kwara?

Shameless fool. My happiness is that every other tribe has now seen y'all for what you really are

You just hate the fact!
If Tinubu has been embezzle Lagos money,did we blame you IGBO for it?

And IGBO land was built by IGBO people cooperative society money and not allocations form money generated by the FG throughout the federation?

You people should better find another excuse for your backwardness.FG and LAGOS City is not your PROBLEM!

The only development in Igboland is not up to IBADAN!

Akwamkpuruamu:


Let everyone stop taking ND oil money then. Let's know who is who! At least the gas in imo my state can take care of imolites

Biafra is a cursed land, no natural resources, no industry.

They only have markets where substandard Chinese products are sold

Bayoreigns:
Yes we all Niger deltans are ready to stand and fight with our blood. Enough is enough starting from this year 2024, we Niger deltans will stand as one and fight if the need arises.

U are not ready yet,when u are READY get urself to abuja n face the president n the senate! All this online burst up will do nada!

rezky:


Na that bet365 caught my attention...abeg how dey fund your account., i don try tire is our bank cards no dey work again.?

Wetin una dey do with the 13% ? I have been to Bayelsa states several times....there is no tangible development there........

NSK4U:


Nonsense talk!!!

Let everyone develop their place with what they can generate. This is the main reason yorubas and the north are scared of Biafra agitation. Lazy leeches can't work but want to eat

Wetin biaflan monkeys go take develop their barren region?

Your evil and greedy ancestors terminated the true Federal system of government in Jan 1966
