Good move by the house. Nigeria is working gradually. Those two proposals were a complete waste of time. New states for what? Have we fully developed the ones we have? 17 Likes |

With all the problems we face as a country, its only tenure elongation our reps can be debating about its very clear now that we also have a clueless Government, smh for Nigeria with a single 6 year tenure the priority of any voted person will be the treasury 4 Likes |

Am not surprised. Tambuwa is one 'progressive' voice that the north is using to kill anything that will favour the south, especoally the southeast. But he will shout to top of his voice if it were to be how the allocation sharing fomular could be changed to favour the north. I pity Ihedioha, he will be used and dumped. 4 Likes |

obicentlis: Another setback because of the Northern Interest. Southerners grow some balls please! This is something that really pisses me off. How long will some of these southerners continue to lick the azz of their northern masters. It is a disgrace. I do not really agree with state creation, but just the fact that the north is using it as a political tool really annoys me. This is injustice and it must stop. 3 Likes |

What i really think the national assembly should focus on is granting full independence to local governments from state governours. State governours who involve themselves in local governments should be up for impeachment. The kind of humiliation local government chairmen recieve from governours, is something the governours will never tolerate from the president...once the rivers state governour suspended the mayor of port harcourt and a few others because they came late for a meeting with him, it's stupid and a constitutional mockery that a publically elected official embarrase another publically elected official in such a way. 5 Likes |

If you read the article carefully, you would have noted that the Reps recommended autonomy for local and state governments and these Reps should be commended for that. The question is would state governors, who were not comfortable with any form of autonomy for the local governments and their Houses of Assembly, allow the matter to scale through when it is reverted for voting in their respected states. I suspect they will rig the votes as usual so that they can keep their powers. Lets hope two-thirds of the states will vote in support of this particular amendment. 1 Like |

HOR members representing SE region should be skinned alive. The creation of a new state especially in the SE region is just to balance this equation of every other region having 6 or 7 states and SE having 5 states. Truth must be told, creation of another is a bad idea from economic point of view. However, to still corect this anomaly of unequal state among the regions, lets go back to Regional Governments instead of what we have now. Let each region elect a minimum of 10 -15 people that will make up the NASS and make laws on a part time basis (there pay should be per sitting). This will reduce the cost of governance drastically. Finally this report still goes to show that the Northerners holds the ace 7 Likes |

The only thing so I find interesting in this is the mention of endorsing autonomy for the states. Now that would be a welcome development, imho. What is the point in creating more states when we have not administered effectively the ones already in existence? 2 Likes |
Re: Reps Reject 6yr Tenure And Dump State Creation by sheriffman(m): 2:36pm On Apr 12, 2013 |
New states will never be created cos of the Following reasons 1. The South East caucus in the Assembly are not united. 2. Most states want another out of it. 3. The Northerners knowing what it will mean will not allow it. 4. The South East need to do something beyond waiting for the National Assembly. 1 Like |

When it gets to job application and appointments in federal agencies the dumb north will cry federal character to favour their stewpid and non-intelligent kinsmen n children. To create equality in number of states now they are using dia numbers n Tambuwal to kill it. Some idiots will now come out n start shouting yoruba is d problem of d south east. Your problems are ur leaders I.e. Ihedioha n all lawmakers frm ur region that wnt fight for ur interest. D next time I hear u people blame south west for ur woes n deprivation , na amadioha and sango go collectively wipe out una race. 1 Like |
