Listen to yourself Nigeria is up side down and you are supporting Buhari...Don't worry unemployed armed robbers must visit you kill and steal form you amen

after overriding the president refusal,hu do u expect to pay the corps members,ministry of finance under the president?

spiritedtete:
Complete waste of time and resources... Do this national assembly guys go to school at all? They must have been thinking from their anuus. Peace corp really? What for exactly... when civil guguru defence are even yet to know what their functions should be.

If they want to create jobs let them come up with a tangible schemes and not this waste of time no objective scheme.

I think efcc should start investigating something is fishy

not only efcc add icpc. Duplicating of offices have started not today.

To marry new wife is not easy oo, u will see ex6tin wifes claiming of overlapping deir work to block d proposed wife from sharin d cake under their husband's pant, They forget that they are lack of some works. The exisisting para millitaries and forces will recruit minimum numbers of youts while countless of graduates are suferin of havin job. Duplicatin of offices have started yester-years. Mr president created duplicate offices, he appointed minister for state in some ministries. Am worrying about we youths, mr president promised us 3m jobs but he eased our mind wit npower. if we are not members of peace corps, we should not trash talk the organisation. financial implication? if fed govt employ youths, are dey not going to pay for dier salaries? or we shuld forget about creation. remember, nysc serving members wil soon join labor market. there is nothing left for us but to be prayerful, may almighty GOD paves way for us.

hammer2010:


The objective is to primarily create jobs

If that's the main objective, then I stand with the president on this matter, cos it means we will have many people who are in it only for the money not interested in safe guiding the life's they swear to protect but rather to come and exploit the citizens of this country, just like we already have it in the police, army, and the rest. If for some of those volunteers its about their passion for the nation, let them join existing military or paramilitary outfits

story!

obstead200:
I support buhari on this.
Peace corps is simply a duplication of duties and waste of cash. There are many other ways the govt can empower the youths without throwing cash on them like that.
Being paid a salary does not mean employment is created, especially when such "employed" does not create or add value and also when the employment or job does not solve a given societal problem.
The youths shud be empowered to add value to their society, not jus to wear another khaki style and loaf around the town, conflicting duties with police, civil defense (another mistake) and other paramilitary outfits

You are myopic in your reasoning. I think you're a youth still looking for job, you are here spewing trashes.

So101:
Honestly there’s nothing wrong in believing you’re right but there is also something called facts which must always be considered. We need jobs yes but what the fvck is Peace Corps!!!! We have police! if indeed the youths want to serve there country as security personnel I think it would be wise to join existing forces. We barely have it right with the Nigerian police and their methods and some unwise people think it’s wise to add something new that duplicates an existing commission it makes no sense to me. Grow and improve the Nigerian police with the available resources and also equip and educate them. The Nigerian police have a long way to go so please there is no need to make it longer focus on what we have grow and strengthen it, but if the National Assembly thinks otherwise then maybe they can show passion by offering a part of their salaries towards the Peace Corps then and just maybe then I might feel their sentiment

Imagine a shallow reasoning from a person who went to school. A jealous police officer spotted.

So you guys expect a government under Buhari to begin to fund a terrorist organisation like IPOB well you are wrong very wrong this government has no space for terrorists they are under ban .

wasyouy:
house of representative or senate can not override a bill relative to security because it does not fall into their jurisdiction. the federal republic can not approve and bill on the issue of Nigeria. it does not fall into their jurisdiction.


The peace corp is an illegal organization and would remain an illegal organization anyone found been a member of the peace corp can be arrested.. because wearing uniform under any organization is considered illegal. because the federal republic has no power to do so.. Civil defence and federal road safety holding holding gun and using it, is considered illegal .

only the military and police have power to bear arms.

now I know that you don't brain, most of guys talking trash don't even understand the trash u r talking about, Nairaland is full of kids

If you check all my post, I am against this government but I support them on this peace corp stand.

What would be their duties? What would they do to differentiate them from all the security apparatus we already have? Their isn't a need for Peace corp, Civil Defence i
Good morning bro, just go through my attached file you will see that they have different duties compared to that of others. Let's all give them our support, one of our families might one day be a beneficiary of the said Organization. Thanks

Bobbywallexino:

Efcc stand for just finances... while Icpc does checking on promotions ethics and check balancing work related irregularities.

Good one from our lawmakers, they are truely the peoples representatives. Nigerian youths are now slaves in other countries because of lack of jobs in the country, some have become kidnappers, arm robbers, political tugs, suicide bombers, baby factorises, human part dealers, assassins, drug dealers and users, street cultists, militants, terrorists and all other criminal acts and vices known to man. they are all in the increase all because of the level of unemployment...Since the present organisations are not creating employments for the youhts let new organizations be formed that will created employment all they need is training and they will serve instead of harming the country. #istandwithpeacecorps

pedel:
Let the peace corps people go and join the police, army, navy, civil defence, fire brigades, custom or immigration. There is lasma or equivalent in every States of the federation.
The legislators can empower 1000s of those unemployed youth from their allowance.
We already have bloated civil service. I am with the president on this.

I'm not surprised by their determination to get the job done. Sahara Reporters had detailed how the slots were shared among them before they even passed the bill. I just pity the so called volunteers who have no connection with politicians that have already shared the slots among themselves.

It is not Peace Corps that will, solve Naija problems now.. It's the establishment of industries and sme's .

dedons:

I agree

Am with baba on this one.
Nigeria has less police personnel, according to UN. To police a nation very well , at least 4 police to 100 citizens. Same goes to other para military.
Our military personnel too are among the lowest force against our population.
Why not fund this agencies and expand their numbers and capacity.
They just like to act as if we are as brainless as them.

Akinz0126:
Well its quiet unfortunate that most of you guys commenting against this peace corp bill are youths keep ranting until the bill becomes reality.


No money but money dey to give Boko haram? abi? Senate know thhe rate of joblessness in present day nigeria hence they can't afford to create another crime mongers I trust my brothers down north no b small pressure dem dey give their politicians on top that bill take it or live it both senators from south and north are together on this.






Peace corp has come to stay you guys can go and jump into the lagoon for all we care

The only way to make people employed is to employ them to do nothing
When we have
Civil defence

The youth of this country should be carried along ,i support the override by the honorables ,let the youth be actively engaged in governance

[quote author=folhenrry4flizzy post=65597871][/quote]

What you posted further butress why the Peace Corp should not be approved. All the functions you listed do not in any way add value to the nation and even the officers.
All what the Peace Corp want is Awuff money from the FG and the pride of wearing uniform to intimidate the citizens.
I'm sure the NASS members involved in the collection of signatures will be careful, the news of how Peace Corp task it's officers to pay 10K each to influence decisions is all over.

If lawmakers like they should passed it 100 times what am after is my own security. Let look at it 2 persons got involved in an accident but we had the treatment of one from Nigeria to abroad what of 2person nowhere to be found. To fund peace corps is not Nigeria problems, 1billion dollars assigned to fight boko haram my people politics is their we are talking because we have rest of mind in south come to Maiduguri if they want to signed more than peace corps to me its good. We are fighting bokoharam since 2014 till now no end.

If the override is successful, are they the one that will approve the appointment into the Peace Corps?
