Reasonable talk!

g

Well it's a good thing you have said.. Charity begins at home.

Very correct.

I am with him on this one

JK we know, JK we trust....

U really think right. This man really have a vision. Others need to mimic this idea. Not to be lootting our funds.

Jimi our next Lagos state Governor.....

The man should go and run for the governorship of California. He is too suave and debonair for this country.
He was flowing as if he sleeps, eats and wakes with the ideas of doing the right thing.
I was watching and listening, and it dawned on me he will not win. Nigerians are not ready to get it right yet.
With regards people still campaigning for Buhari, it only shows that the power of stupid and foolish people in a crowd should never be underestimated.

1st term for Jimi Agbaje

OR

6th term for Bola Ahmed Tinubu?

Vote wisely.

Yes... It's funny how Sanwolu was speaking about restructuring and devolution of powers at the federal level when state governments have refused to grant local government autonomy.


We can't continue this system of government that centralises the affairs of a state to an office. Devolution of powers at all level is what we need. So if a bad Road exist in your ward you mobilise and march straight to the local government Chairman's office.

yes na....

Yes. But you and I should also do our own part by voting against them even when the foolish ones are in greater numbers.

Do you know that if many of the roads within streets leading to major roads are tarred , it will ease pressure at various junctions. And these roads are supposed to be done by the local government.

Hope you get the gist?

He's correct about local government autonomy. The issue is state assemblies refuse to vote o issue. I really dont want to hear the governor excuse either since the governors couldn't stop state assembly autonomy in 2018. It makes sense for local government to serve some utility since the get tax revenue.
