Osinbajo At A Town Hall Meeting In Lagos by DailyPost: 8:32pm On Apr 23, 2016 |
Here are some of the issues he discussed. He also provided answers to some questions. 1. President Muhammadu Buhari and I are completely committed to providing competent leadership. We have no other agenda. We acknowledge that there are pains but they are just birth pains. 2. We are currently compiling the social register for the poor. As soon as the budget is passed, we will begin to pay 5000 to the poor. 3. Stealing and Corruption cuts across all ethnic groups. We must decide to become a new tribe of Nigerians. We must disallow division We must also disallow the use of religion or ethnicity. 4. On the fuel crisis, only the NNPC is importing refined fuel. We are in the process of a final solution to the fuel scarcity. 5. Public refineries are a problem. Private refineries run better. We are seeking private investments in co-managing the refineries. 6. On the Entertainment sector, We are working on solutions to piracy including technology options. Active advocacy and more collaboration between the Entertainment industry and the government. 7. The VP reiterates that the Lagos-Calabar project is in the budget. He says the most effective way of moving goods is by rail. So the Lagos-Calabar and Lagos-Kano rails are in the budget. 8. On Power: Nigeria recorded a peak of 5000 MW in February. We paid outstanding debts and curtailed vandalism. But the Forcados pipeline caused a drop of about 500MW. 9. We are currently working on improving the supply of gas to power plant and fixing transmission line problems. 10. We have removed fixed tariff charges. You only pay for what you use. We are also engaged with labour unions on cost reflective tariffs. 11. On the Yuan deal: The deal is we have some credit with the Chinese so doing business with the Chinese can be done without the dollar. 12. The Yuan deal will help facilitate trade with China and also help the ease of doing business. 13. We want a country where anyone who holds public office must be able to explain their wealth. 14. Nobody can enforce any type of right by violence. The use of violence to dispossess others is unacceptable. 15. We will continue with the town hall meetings across the country. You will need notified on the next one. Source http://www.viviangist.com/breaking-points-for-nigerians-as-osinbajo-attends-town-hall-meeting-in-lagos 13 Likes 2 Shares

Uncommon change from an élan leader. when we talk of change;we are talking of process,gradual process! The way and manner at which the process start or come will not be accepted by many,infact it might look strange! To many Osibanjo 'town hall meeting' is strange but is on the right direction in governance. one of the best way in identifying what-to-do in governance is leaders-followers engagements like town hall meetings. 16 Likes 3 Shares |

I am a firm believer in the ability of PMB led administration to deliver results. Though, its not going to be easy but together we can jointly build a new Nigeria of our dream.. President Muhammad Buhari administration will never disappoint Nigerians just a matter of time will we experience the change they voted for. 32 Likes 4 Shares |

This man is a comedian. Even in the midst of a storm, he is claiming that the sea is still calm. Well I don't blame him, that church called Redeemed is a visage and citadel of heretics, liars and phools. That is where he learnt the art of telling stup1d liars. Till this day, he is still parading the 5000k ℓi3.God will surely visit Y̶̲̥̅̊ø̲̣̣̥ǖ with the fire ☀̤̣̈̇f the holyghost. Y̶̲̥̅̊ø̲̣̣̥ǖ will pay dearly 9 Likes |

This man (VP) engaged people in multidirectional communication in order to hear and be heard yet some people thought that wasn't the way to go. These are the same set of people that have been telling us how "this government" has not been communicating with the people locally and only doing so on foreign land. Now the opportunity was brought to their noses yet they still complained. I believe they are programmed to see nothing good in PMB/PYO leadership. The unfortunate thing for you guys is that you still have more than 3 years to remain sad and miserable. Hope you would not develop high blood pressure at the end of the day. 15 Likes 4 Shares |

Flets: Wailer/ IPOB Tout outburst ! Always Emotionally immature. With default response/comment. No substance. Just Noise. 5000 naira is still better than 0 naira as far as an extreme poor is concern. Go to d extreme poor and tell him/her that 5000 naira is nothing, That he is better off without it. Try it and see if he will not stone u !!! An average wailer/IPOB taut is greedily individualistic. He does not care about people in d lower cadre of d society as long as he can oppress them with i am better than u attitude. vanguard90:Number 14 in d OP post was his response to Fulani Hersdmen. Excerpts from thisday Newspaper: The vice president, who fielded questions from a wide range of interest groups from different sectors of the polity, talked tough on the violence currently being perpetrated by herdsmen in various parts of the country. He warned that violence of any sort was no longer acceptable to the Buhari presidency, stating, “Nobody can enforce any type of right by violence. The use of violence to dispossess others is unacceptable!” http://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/04/24/osinbajo-public-officeholders-must-account-for-what-they-own/ 23 Likes 5 Shares |

ziccoit:I could have sworn I asked you to write those if I didn't know better!! Exactly what I wanted to say when I saw the first comment! These guys are simply hardwired to complain about every damn thing and have sworn NEVER to see any good in whatever the admin does. They are terrified of the what might be should the admin succeed and will do whatever it takes, legal and otherwise, to ensure she doesn't succeed in delivering on her promises to the people- take Fayose for instance, going as far as sabotaging his own country all in the name of opposition politics. Folks like them would fast and pray Buhari never completes the second Niger bridge even though they'd be the greatest beneficiaries of such a project because that would expose what a lie they've been selling to the illiterates in their region. 15 Likes 1 Share |

VP Osibanjo talk tough on Fulani Herdsmen Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said on Saturday in Lagos that public officers would now be made to account for their wealth as part of the anticorruption campaign of the administration. He said the change being pursued by the government was an existential desire and not a mere slogan. http://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/04/24/osinbajo-public-officeholders-must-account-for-what-they-own/ 2 Likes 2 Shares |

We don't need that political talk , what we expect is actions that speaks louder than voice. Considering the fact that when we believe your campaign promises as a man of God, we were amazed how you and the party denied every things. So we lean to take your words after the action because you are a mare commissioner according to a governor.e don't need that political talk , what we expect is actions that speaks louder than voice.

Good move . . . for those who have a thing or 2, or 15 against the government, it is a good forum to vent your displeasure -- if I am in the country then during any of them town hall tours, I'd gladly find a way to get in to air my displeasure too (one way or the other). #getin |
