WORDS ON MARBLE....
Rotimi Amaechi on Channels TV, when Jonathan visited Chad
" How can our president be going to little countries like Chad and Niger to seek their co-operation; they are supposed to be coming down to Nigeria and not the other way round.... and he also asked "How did we get to this level".
Gen. Buhari when he hosted ACF during Jonathan ... "What is more worrisome is the fact that Nigeria’s military has to rely on South Africa and small neighboring nations before it could gain recent success in the war against Boko Haram. This situation is shameful and unacceptable."
Lie Mohammed when Buhari visited Chad " since terrorism has assumed a global dimension, no nation, not even the superpower United States, can fight the growing menace alone"
------------
I still wonder who these apc people really are. This their bland hypocrisy is a major reason I can never join that Party. For them, truth is a mortal sin and lying is a second nature. Wasn't the Devil hurled down because of his lies?

CharliParker:
I will agree when Bornu and Osun state makes any excuses but Abia state is what pains me most
And dont you think that, that's an Irony.
Why the comparison of Osun and Borno?
Borno state is term the "Home of Peace", we know it's the reverse of that slogan today.
While Osun is "State of the Living Spring" until Aregbe out of ignorance change that to "State of the Virtuous".

In 2009, Osun is reputed to be the MOST PEACEFUL state in Nigeria. Check the "crime wave", hardly will you see Osun on the radar. Osun people are patient and that's why they hardly protest their unpaid salaries.
Borno that is the "home of peace" is now the "hotbed of war" with this insurgency.

Don't ever compare Osun to Borno because of AreGBESE owing his workers.

[quote author=Ihedioha2015 post=34542225]OSUN state: This is a South west state.

Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun on Wednesday opened up on his inability to pay the salaries of workers in the state for five months, blaming it on “declining federal allocation.”
The governor made the open confession at the 7th Bola Tinubu Colloquium organised to mark Tinubu’s 63rd birthday in Lagos.
He said he was deeply pained and unhappy that he had not been able to pay workers salaries.
“I have found it hard to pay the wage bills owing to the declining federal allocation to the state.
“Federal allocation to the state has reduced by 40 per cent since 2013, making it difficult for government to meet up its responsibilities,” he said.


Aregbesola said the situation became so bad at a time that he resorted to the state’s reserves and exhausted it on payment of salaries.
The governor added that the government went ahead to accumulate debt of N12 billion in its bid to ensure that salaries were paid.
He said that he would not mind to borrow more “just to ensure that workers were paid but the “banks would not grant more loans.”
He said: “Osun is next to Lagos in the sheer size of its civil service.
“In fact, the state inherited 50 per cent of all the workers in the old western state and more than 75 per cent in the old Oyo State.
“I was meeting my wage bill of over N3.6 billion with N4.6 billion federal allocation until July, 2013 when the Federal Government announced a decline of about 40 per cent allocation to states.

“This reduced the state’s allocation from N4.6 billion with which I was meeting my bills to N2.6 billion.
“Since then, Osun has had to augment salaries by sometimes N1 billion, sometimes N1.6 billion.
“Before the last time I paid salaries in November, 2014, I have had to either spent the state’s reserves on salaries or borrow money.
“Today, I have a loan of N12 billion that we spent on salaries and I could not go to the banks anymore.”

The governor said that his administration remained pro-workers in spite of the tight corner it had found itself, pledging to pay the salary arrears as soon as the means was available.

He reiterated the commitment of his administration to the welfare of the people, adding that he had demonstrated the commitment with the implementation of a number of programmes.

He described Tinubu as “an icon through whom many great leaders had risen”

Excellent topic by OP. This is what we expect to see on FP, Not PDP/APC ego. As you can see bad governance knows no party, no religion, no ethnicity. Solubu rightly pointed out that no benefit can be vividly seen from regions that produce the president in the last 15 years. Bayelsa still remain one of the least develop state 6 years after GEJ at the top. We most demand for good governance at all levels.

Can our leaders throw in the towel when it becomes obvious they have no solution to many challenges facing them in governance. The state revenue is low and they lack common sense to buffer it yet they are sitting tight and making people suffer. Governance is about innovation and not just waiting for pay from federation account.

With the huge allocation in Delta state, Osun state seems to be better developed than the state under the Uduaghan led administration.

U have clearly shown pictures of places that put abia and borno on that list but not of osun state. U have only put up a picture of their governor. Something is not right. Intact the people protesting in osun are doing so on well built roads with proper drainage. I think ekiti comes before osun, have you been to kogi?

I have no pity for the people of Abia.

After crying for years about how the Ochendo led PDP government ruined the state, the silly people still went ahead to vote an even more clueless person from the same PDP.

It only takes the grace of God to deliver the state. I think the state is seriously cursed.

Stop trying to sound like you are smart. You are ignorant about who the governor is. If you want a group to pity, pity the people of Bornu state who re-elected the same terrorist a second time.
