You Are Clueless Seeking For Emergency Powers - Ekiti PDP To Buhari by Benikuuse(m): 6:13pm On Aug 24, 2016
Kamarudeen Ogundele, Ado Ekiti The Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti State has criticised President Muhammadu Buhari for seeking emergency powers from the National Assembly to manage the economy. The party said it was a “clear manifestation of the clueless and confused nature” of the people at the helm of affairs. It also noted that such an “embarrassing and authoritarian demand” was an indication that the ruling All Progressives Congress is incapable of delivering on its promises and is therefore seeking excuses for its poor performance. The party also said Buhari’s demand was one of the ways APC seeks to hold Nigerians by the jugular, using state powers. The PDP, in a statement by its state Publicity Secretary, Mr. Jackson Adebayo, in Ado Ekiti on Wednesday, said, “Is it not dastardly for the President to say he is seeking emergency powers for his administration to handle the economy? “Then, what are the duties of those in the Finance Ministry and other sectors involved in the day-to-day management of the economy? If they are unproductive, why not send them away?” The party noted that the present situation also happened in the Second Republic when most of the states then used to receive zero allocation from the Federal Government. “The president then didn’t throw away the constitution to solve the problem; but rather constituted proactive economic team that brought the situation under control before the then General Muhammadu Buhari overthrew the government and dismantled the process, fostering hardship on Nigerians. While calling on the people to reject any attempt to turn the country into a republic where tyranny and dictatorship would reign supreme, PDP advised the Federal Government to return to the drawing board and seek protection from the constitution, rather than looking for a shortcut that would “bastardise democratic norms and tenets.”

If Buhari cannot deliver within our extant laws he should resign.

No emergency power can save a clueless man who's not willing to change his statist mindset but keeps expecting to be spoon-fed before realizing the need for change of failed policies.

This is not the age for analogue minded leaders/tyrants and incompetent economic teams.

I hope you aren't being cynical but I'll try.

Due to certain provisions in our constitution the states cannot access funds which are simply idling away.

They need the national assembly to deliberate on them which is an unnecessary bottleneck.

The president is saying do away with this bottleneck so states can access these funds.

Please don't take my word for it. Read up on it.

In continuation of the above, there are some projects that would take at least 6 months before it can be initiated because of certain laws, the President is saying change or remove those clause so that projects/ contacts can be awarded faster.

Useless opposition. Everything the president seeks bothers on the economy. I don't know what's too difficult to do to save the economy. I don't see where the president is asking for power to jail without passing through the court or kill anyone guilty of an offense.. .

State Governors are working and were delivery some of there promise in less than 1 year what stops Federal Government from doing same?

When they were promising to kick the ground running they never understood how things work or what? They are trying to create another scene to heep the blames on Senators after there failure ...

This government is just gambling and doing try and error with 160 millions citizens.

My problem is this. Is it that people don't understand what the FG is proposing with the bill?

Again, this bill is in draft and is being worked on by the vice president who is the leader of the economic team and not the president, so why all this mindless attacks on the person of the president?

I think most of those against the contents of the bill are simply against it either because they didnt read it or they read but didnt understand what they read.

I say this because those opposing the bill havent raised a point from the bill and give reasons as to why they disagree. All they've been saying has been about Buhari's past and all other BS.

This is the area the minister of information and all media aides of the president and govt should have come up to educate the masses on the importance of the bill to avoid misrepresentations but alas! They are failing and leave the people to guess either wrongly or rightly .

More reasons I won't blame those who are opposing the bills cos govt has kept the people in the dark.
If a policy is for the good of the people, Govt should be glad to give details about it and what the people and the govt stands to gain as well

Is it just illiteracy? I think it also includes the hatred being shown towards this government.

I mean a bill still in its draft that has been applauded by economic experts, Lagos state chamber of commerce and industry LCCI, some top lawyers and the Manufacturers association of Nigeria, is what some low lifes here on NL and silly opposition are against is just so shocking.

I don't know that people can be educated and still sound like an illiterate because some of those that I have seen oppose the bill look and sound educated.

You are very right on this. But let's also recollect in the opening statement from the original publication that carried this news that this bill is still a draft and is yet to be presented to the President and forwarded to the Federal executive committee. What this shows is that someone has leaked this information to the public prematurely.

If this bill has been approved by the executive, we expect that the Min. of Information come to public and address and educate the public on the contents of the bill. But since that is not the case, I don't think the information minister can say much on it.

I'll wait till this bill has been finalised by the executive and forwarded to Nass for onward consideration and approval before dissecting the bill any further.
