If various states can have their own laws, why was Fayose condemned by the north and some APC folks for banning grazing?
It is therefore clear to say that each state should be allowed to make and implement its own laws regardless the feelings of other citizens in different regions.

You can enact any law you want so long as it doesn't impinge on my constitutional rights as a Nigerian. Grazing is different because the herdsmen encroach on private land. Your right to free movement does as enshrined in the constitution does not grant you free movement onto another man's property. No state govt has the right to ban a non-muslim from drinking alchohol anywhere in Nigeria, the most you can do is ban the sale. As far as muslims, they already have sharia law so this law is a bit pointless. .

ALTERNATEID:
Prostitution is illegal and that's understandable. But stopping people from selling and consumption of alcohol is illegal and a breach of the fundamental human right of the people who desire to sell and consume alcohol. The prohibition should be challenged before a court of competent jurisdiction.

Open a shop in ur state where india hemp and cocaine is sold since its no violation of anybdy's human rights.

Which one did you eventually drink?

Malt ofcourse, anything alcoholic is no gud

Milonis:

It's still 12th...my point is this: this isn't the first time such has been said

Ok your point is noted but check the news again it says from 20th January 2017

Are you a Muslim?

They should also ban codeine and sales of glue and seal up all gutters. They ban alcohol then proceed to get high on every other substance you can think of. Ban brothels but they have the highest rate of sodomy.

This is madness

how can this govt banned selling of charcoal and fire wood. this man want to engaged youth in bokoharam activities.

Saudi wahhabis enacting laws in the north... Nothing less

mengho:
Hehehe, gud, I remember when I went to low-cost near Giwa barack, the shops are just full of star, Hynessy, Gulder & gunnes. it was even hard for me to get common malt drink

dat na barracks area na.. Na der i dey go drink frm my jiddari area

most people dont know owning a brothel is illegal in EVERY state in Nigeria.

Question: why are those well known brothels--you know their names--allowed to operate with full impunity?

WEll I think it is wrong, this is religion getting in the way of democracy.check all the countries with these laws,the have no election.You can not force your religion or way of life on others, so if I was not religious and from same state why can I not sell and consume alcohol??

Well said, These guys do not know we have our own fundamental human right which is enshrined into the Nigerian constitution that over sees all law made.This would be thrown out of court if taken upon.They should just stick to sharia law, if they dont wanna drink alcohol so be it but allow others who want to do so.

Mammy market pple don happy o
Army go beat civilians/gentlemen taya

Why is everyone talking only of alcohol and prostitution, no one is talking about charcoal and firewood. How will the poor masses there cope? Kerosene is #400 per litter.

This govt is the most useless of all, misplaced priorities every where beggining with the commander in chief.

Anyway, the ban on firewood and charcoal will not hold even for a day.

Elrufai tried it in kaduna, when blues change to regea no be person tell am mk him unbanned.

Hmmmm.

We didn't catch that. Make a separate topic about it.

I'm not a lawyer but I'm not even sure constitutionally they can ban the sale of alchohol.

Down south everything is OK.
Alcohol, street women, brothels, night clubs, illegal motor parks, mushroom churches and mosques.

Blue3k:
Prostitution legal before? Alcohol sale banned oh well. Please bann yourself from collecting vat from alcoholic beverages as well.

I got you there on VAT

You for try ban am for military barracks em na make dem put u back for ur place

Justdulla:

They banned sale of alcohol, they didn't say you cant drink it but they banned it.
They banned prostitution as well, you can engage in it but they say they dont want in their state.
Nigeria is secular we agree but who has alcohol or prostitution helped lately
What is wrong is wrong and every state government has a say to how things are being run in their territory cos if any social vice escalates via this, the same people will come here to ti criticize the government for not being proactive.

I can see you are a chronic hypocrite. Why not support the ban of female child sex abuse you paedophile, and also dissociate totally from enjoying revenue generated from Alcohol since what is wrong is wrong Spit

NOETHNICITY:

Indian hemp is a banned substance, alcohol is not.

lacking idea? meet people like Ambode

Is sex abuse illegal? I believe it's called sexual assult and rape.

OBAGADAFFI:
Any state that bans Alcohol should exempted from the Revenue generated from Breweries and Tobacco companies.

I pray oh but such policy wouldn't work

This Borno governor is just a big fowl! brainless decision

If he wants to firewood and charcoal, he should be ready to provide cheaper alternatives for the poor Masses. If he bans alcohol then the state shouldn't have share in VAT since they're enjoying other states sweat especially vat on alcoholic drinks. That's the way it's, you scratch my back I scratch yours

In other words, we should give them a chance?

bastarrds why ban charcoal and firewood? as poor as that state is they want their poor to start buying kerosene they cant afford.
