And where in the world is a governor not having power over how he manages the money in his Treasury?

Who will be doing the management if a govnr doesn't? Why is he even a govnr?

Free and fair elections never happen anywhere...

There is always manipulation. The only thing I detest is the violence!
look at you. the man said do or die and you're talking free and fair. or does do or die elections happen everywhere too?

Its so annoying wen I hear pple call Amaechi names like Traitor,Judas and all soughts of rubbish. Is it not d same Amaechi dat did his best to advice GEJ about those around him dat were decieving him, and we all saw how their deciet led to his loss in election, I so much believe if GEJ had listen to d like of Amaechi not Wike.. Amaechi did his Best for rivers pple, during Amaechi reign rivers was so peaceful until Wike bcame a Minister and everything scatter

Someone should tell Bruce that violence will continue to mar our elections unless we start to use minimum wages for public office holders based onbtheur educational qualifications... I believe with this, Nigeria would have best brains running the affair of this country...

Is this not why he is a Senator?

Weren't they given the power of the masses to make legislations like this?

Why is he moving this motion on twitter and not in the Senate chambers?

I like this man, but I fear he is just another scam wanting to ride on the anger of citizens to seek a higher office.

The recent election in Rivers State was neither presidential nor gubernatorial. Why was it do or die?
Re: Ben Murray-Bruce On Do-Or-Die Elections In Nigeria (pics) by AfroKnight: 9:20am On Mar 20, 2016
That's not entirely correct. The reason for violence is power; control and immunity. The ability to control territory and the lives of other people regardless of wealth. In Nigeria, no governor or president can veto money for himself legally. That's why we have cases levelled against them after office.

Those who vie for office singularly for money are the senators and reps. They do not have immunity so they collect bribes or vote money for themselves. These are the real enemies of Nigeria.

He is not wrong tho'
He is a senator. Why taking to twittering instead of rising the issue at the floor of the senate? Bruce is absolutely wrong.
We all are aware that when PMB proposed reducing emolument of political office holders to curtail issues like these, the senates, including people like Bruce kicked against it. That's why there can't be common sense in the common sense proprietor this time around.

In the 80's in this same country, people were being begged to become councillors. This is because it was purely a call to work devoid of any attractive pecuniary benefits.
But today, councillors now have access to funds huge enough to acquire properties abroad, hence the killing and maiming to become one.

Ben Bruce, you are talking to the wrong audience. Go tell your floor members in the senate who are hell-bent on running the country down.

Very intelligent observation from my senator


People like you are the problem we have in this country sing praises of any one in charge..
Are the one to make it a law on social media or the senator should make it a law in the national assembly. Raise a motion and lobby for contribution and pass it into law is what we need not telling us here.

It keep surprising me, when people who claim they want to serve the people resort to killing and make it a do or die affair. It is very obvious that they have no interests of the people/masses in their heart, but rather theirs. Which are how to steal public funds, live extravagant life at the expense of tax payer funds, tour the world, send their kids to the best institution in the world, all these are some of their interests that propel them to make it a do or die affair... This is a bitter truth, no politian in nigeria have 60% interest of the mass in them.

Yes we all know that it's the money and power that makes the polithiefcians desperate. But who else will manage the state funds if it's not the governor.
