Very very lame argument. So as Buhari is president now, Fayose can just come now and make him do what he doesn't want to do especially something that's not in the interest of the country. Then so Tinubu made noise, did Tinubu also force the FG to spend their own share as well or why didn't the FG save that one? 5 Likes 1 Share |

What even makes this lie more ridiculous is that fact that most of the governors that opposed the sovereign wealth fund aka excess crude account were PDP, even Amaechi was still PDP member when the governors they took the FG to court. I don't know of a single PDP governor that supported the sovereign wealth fund, so i do not how they can blame the APC ( or Tinubu) which wasn't even in existence when the governors took the FG to court over the excess crude account.

eagleeye2:But she did save when OBJ was president despite Tinubu objections then and despite relatively low oil prices. What happened during jonathan's regime? Why could she not save when oil was selling at record prices. She could not even save from FG's 52% share, instead she was borrowing massively to run the government. 3 Likes |

DropShot:Maybe they are, but u shld remember dat GEJ is not the National Economic Council, neither is NOI. Most Governors at the time supported the SHARING of funds from the Excess Crude Account. So blaming GEJ and or NOI is totally incorrect. Lastly, the last administration was corrupt, but NOI still remains the BEST Finance Minister dis country has eva had. |

wirinet:Please understand that share and share and more sharing has always been the ideology of the Opposition as far back as OBJs time. This thread is focusing on OBJs time (2005) and GEJs time. You can all insult GEJ for all I care, but the ideology of AD, CPC and APC has always been, don't Save. Rather share. |

wirinet:My dear, I am not insinuating anything. But merely trying to point out that, the opposition which was then in the mold of AD, CPC, APC has always had an ideology of SHARING and not SAVING. Whatever we are facing today, we should share the blame on both the Opposition then (now ruling party) and the leaders then (now opposition). They are all culpable. |

eagleeye2: First that is not AD, APC and APC ideology, it is the constitution. OBJ went against the constitution and created the excess crude accounts, which really helped Nigeria in time of need. Secondly, the share ideology is not just opposition ideology but Nigerian ideology. No PDP politician - governors, legislatures and public officials supported savings. Tell me one PDP state that saved its portion of allocations. Even the FG did not bother to save its own portion of allocations, would you blame the opposition for that? 3 Likes |

The arguments being churned out by these Jonathanians can sometimes be very twisted and laughable. Okay, NOI the finance minister of Nigeria warned Nigeria to save for the rainy day, but now the blame is on Amaechi and Tinubu for the inability of the FG to save. Isn't it ironic and laughable that the Jonathanians who keep criticising this present government for blaming past leadership are now the ones blaming a future government for their inability to save in the past? By the way, NOI warned of the need to save during OBJ days, Tinubu and co were alleged to have opposed but what eventually happened??... the FG under OBJ and finance ministry headed by NOI were able to save for Nigeria. Fastforward to GEJ era, the same NOI calls for the need to save, Amaechi opposed and what eventually happened??... the FG under GEJ which made the highest revenue didnt save. Observing these two above situations, the joke is obviously on GEJ for being an ineffectual leader. But strangely, GEJ's supporters now put the blame on Amaechi (who wasnt even in govt). 3 Likes 1 Share |
