NothingDoMe: Referendum is not a sport club, so you cannot say Referendum for life the way you say Chelsea for life. Please be guided accordingly and stop embarrassing yourself. |

Re: Mauritania Votes To Abolish Senate By Referendum by DJInfluence: 4:36pm On Aug 07, 2017 |
we should scrap the sanate and leave only the house of rep. The house whould be reduced to half as well. Too bloated and costly to run both. Cpoying a country that is more advance is every facet of life is not helping us. We should have a referendum too. |

magoo10: Nigerians are disgustingly stupid, many of them. No nation can move forward without referendums. This is what IPOB simply demands but even our acting president is talking about the last civil war. Too many morons here honestly. 1 Like 1 Share |

AngelicBeing:I don't think it will lead to dictatorship. In fact, the lower house or House of Representative is a better representation of the people than the senate. If Nigeria can do same , better. 1 Like |

As expected, a lot of people didn't read the post. Though I would be happy if our senate is disbanded, it seems this is another case of dictatorship on Africa. And this is why Africa will continue to struggle. |

obailala: dont be short sighted or let your bias becloud you. There is a reason why there are three arms of government. if you scrap the legislature, you would easily have a dictatorship. to put this in perspective, ask yourself if you would have supported scrapping of the legislature during the Jonathan years. |
Re: Mauritania Votes To Abolish Senate By Referendum by obailala(m): 5:43pm On Aug 07, 2017 |
monex:I would have supported scrapping of the legislature since 2003; that was how long ago I realised the NASS was just a useless gathering of rogues whose primary objective is to feed themselves fat and serve as a clog in the wheel of progress whenever their lootocratic desires are not met... As offensive as it may sound, Nigeria (and many other developing countries) aren't mature enough for democratic rule, we need to have strong moral systems in place before we think of democracy. Failure to do so is what gives you a bunch of rogues who autocratically determine exactly how much they are to be paid; no wonder one of the poorest countries in the world also has the highest paid legislators in the world. In all honesty, that NASS building deserves a MOAB bomb. Maybe if they are scrapped, Nigeria can think of a better alternative, maybe even a part-time parliament where the members are nothing but volunteers who wouldn't have any access to government funds. |

useless and too costly is the best description for the nigerian senate too.its a pity nigerians are too disunited to call for such votes |

jahsharon:So "for life" is only for football clubs? "For life" means I stand with this or that. Whether it's a club, an idea, or a movement, you can stand with it for life. I really dislike myopic people. |

A horrible country that has refused to stop enslaving black people....it is a wonder why we haven't gone to war with them. |

AngelicBeing: The question is do we have such provisions of referendum in our constitution? As for dictatorship, Gaddafi was one and Libya was better off than without him. I wish he was a Nigerian. |

Re: Mauritania Votes To Abolish Senate By Referendum by AngelicBeing: 9:31pm On Aug 07, 2017 |
menxer:l am not sure we have such provisions in our Constitution, secondly, I agree with your position about Gaddafi, although he was authoritarian and a despot but he kept his country together and Libyans fared better than the way it is now, Libyan citizens under Gaddafi lived like Western Europeans but sadly after the Allied forces overtook Libya, the country has been taken over by vultures, different militias and it has been balkanized and fragmented into a city flowing with blood, lastly, I also wish Gaddafi was our president so he can flog sense into all the useless politicians we have masquerading at the corridors of power, Gaddafi would have used a whip like the one below.
