Datz d problem with our country... Assumptions and stereotypes without adequate information.
Lobbying is legitimate and even necessary. Of course, it has its drawbacks. In developed countries lobbying is an integral part of their law making process. In fact, most lawyers in Washington DC are lobbyists

In "developed countries" where corruption isn't endemic like ours and their leaders aren't as selfish.

I stand by what I said; they are only designing a new course for corruption.

Bollinger:

Lobby is done everywhere

richidinho:

Sorry, you don't know what you are asking for.
Lobbying in Nigeria would mean legalization of corruption and bribery.
A third world corrupt country has no business with special interest economic goups who are more or less economic vultures too sophisticated for the Nigerian regulatory agencies, not when the majority of the populace are under the common yoke of poverty and underdevelopment.

I know dt dis is d kind of bill dt T A orji is waiting for,a man dt wil sit in NASS,he wil nt talk bt only waitin for where looting wil come from.
USELESS MAN

Awon were! This people r goin crazy fa!!

African leaders won't think of passing bills to encourage transparency in the award and procurement process when it comes to contracts,only think of their pockets. This country is cursed under the spell of corruption and I see us being this way for the next hundred years.

Nigeria is finished ............... i think this country is practically meant for the rich people only . the poor its a petty [color=#990000][/color]

SamuelAnyawu:
Trash

what was ur reaction to the bill at the red chamber? dont come here and act like saint

This are so many documentary about this selfish interest called lobbying which some activist are fighting to get rid of in the western world, and we in Naija (politifians) are trying to embrace it..........sorry sorry oooo

And one common sense senator always disturbing on radio and twitter has not voiced his common sense opinion on this to the public

Lots of agencies/oraganisations to sign up as a bill, e.g peace corps, stupiid idiiots, but they prefer to sign criminal acts, wasted nation!!!

Alexk2:
This is simply A bill to legalize bribery and Corruption by senator Dino Melaye and supported by bird fellows.

It will never stand in Jesus name.

In Allah 's name too.

michoim:
Are we using the tax payers money to pay NASS to invent/sponsor bills to take us backward?

The thing tire me , instead to legalise quality free education nation wide, they're just there working for their own interests

Its a good bill that should had been in force since and will help create job and enhance d strenght of international relation as a course of study in Nigeria.any doubter should watch d south korean movie LOBBYIST,it should not b limited to legislature alone but also to other multinationals and transnational companies.

APC Change!

bravo to men and women that have nothing to offer us

Its another way of saying they are looking for other avenues to getting money since government coffers are tight now for their sticky fingers.

Lobbying means that any one from big money interests can come to senate to ask them for legislation or policy changes or additions. Big money people will come with business interests to profit using government policy to bend the market in their favor. There will be billions to be made and it is no doubt that senators will be looking for a share of the gains.
Lobbying is a dirty business in countries with a tight clamp on pilfering from Govt. coffers. Those who lobby senate with their wallets end up getting what they want and it delivers the country and laws into the hands of a very few mega wealthy people. In Nigeria, it will most likely be a very dirty business involving family and friends of senate mixed with big money business.

On the other hand, it also opens the door for the ordinary man to lobby senate whose ears will likely be plugged with money from big money business interests. I hope EFCC knows how to manage the chop-chop festival being connived out of this move.

Lobbying in a country where you don't know who's a citizen and who's not.

Maybe they want to focus on pertinent isssues before jumping into complicated ones like lobbying.

Dull country with criminally dull Senate Representatives.

Sirdayor:
This Dino and his cohort wont stop to amaze me. So out of all the problem we are facing in this country, that is what is most important to Dino.

He most likely just recently became familiar with the term on his last visit out here, it tickled his fancy and then he decided to export his new discovery to Africa.

What a cow!

amanze15:
we are trying to be like the West ,

Start with electricity, good roads and water.

l can not believe this that a senator would move a motion for lobbying to be legalized in Nigeria. If this is done we have finished in this country.
