Will executive order stand the test of time? I think a constitutional review should suffice.

I am quite certain most states are without elected LGA Chairmen and even the ones with elected Chairmen, the Governors are still holding sway...

If we must get it right, the executive arm of government should sponsor a bill seeking for the dissolution of state electoral commissions first and foremost, let INEC be saddled with the responsibility of conducting all elections so that Governor can stop selecting LGA Chairmen...

Secondly, the executive should lobby the national assembly to review the constitution wherein, LGA autonomy, SHOA autonomy and Judicial fiscal autonomy will be enshrined in the constitution...

Thirdly, state should control their resources and be made to compulsory remit a percentage to the FG that way, all states will be forced to harness her God given potentials...

Fourthly, on electioneering, they should push a bill recognizing independent candidature...In Nigeria before you are given the flag of APC or PDP, you will have made so many concessions and in some cases made to sign undertakings with far reaching spiritual implications should you at any point in time renege on such commitments...

The independent candidature bill should be followed with another one seeking to reposition INEC. Electronic voting is the way forward to deal with cases of ballot box snatching and electoral violence all together...

All of these can be done and should be done if the Buhari-led FG really mean well for the people. A big 'IF' I must say...

States to control their resources - you recommended.

Lol. How do you expect an average Fulani to accept that genuine recommendation?

Buhari told the Emir of his Katsina that they fought for the resources in the south and won them during the civil war.
Most of northern Nigeria has adopted unconstitutional Islamic Sharia criminal justice system; it’s like the sharia country in northern Nigeria. But the sharia country in the north still sticks to one Nigeria because of lucre of crude oil and access to sea in the south.

Buhari and APC political restructuring shall end up to consolidate the stranglehold of the Fulani on Nigeria.

Kudos PMB

Never complete until States are given autonomy.
The monthly federal allocations should stop and States should fend for themselves and also determine their developmental processes.

Let Zamfara struggle to provide the required funds to afford expensive cars for its State's legislature during a pandemic.

Let Kaduna continue harbouring killers that will keep disrupting the productivity the State.

Let Ondo indigenes know that the only bane to their development is their governor.

If governance gets closer to the people, they will challenge their leaders for inefficiencies and also use their senses during electioneering.

This is because an average Nigeria will leave behind his state governor and start lashing at the federal government every now and then. With true federalism, not even these redundant concillors will be spared. Finances that States struggled to make will be utilised judiciously, accountability will be more.

They opposed if because it was a political exercise in futility. These people know that a change in the constitution is only possible through NASS. An SNC cannot effect constitutional change. From the time the report was submitted, why was it not implemented especially as the PDP had a clear majority in both houses.

Please what the gap of time between the Confab report and the 2015 elections? How long does it take to introduce a bill? I said "introduction" not even passing the bill. Why would a sitting party with a clear majority in both houses, shift implementation till after an election whose result is uncertain?

Let us not play politics with facts.

No, he knew the recommendations of the canfab is good for the country but since he will not benefit from it, he decided to implement it just before he leaves office so that he'll not be affected by it in any way.

Can you read what you just wrote whether it aligns with your moniker?
Of course it does. We criticize them without bringing up meaningful solutions, without playing our own role in the better Nigeria we all want(a few don't want this however). If most youths on this forum are giving a chance to dupe someone, they will do it then come online the next day and cry about APC leadership. That is not saying the Government is doing commendably but in a democratic scene as ours, leaders are an expression of their followers. That even reminds me, I went to buy fuel yesterday, tank filled and I asked the guy how much? He said #3000 fast, not knowing I saw the #2,628 on the screen before he removed it. I just smiled and gave dude the money, shaking my head as I was going. Nigeria is where it is because the youths have decided that's how they like it.

Can u pls suggest how u want everyone to work together? Y do u say Nigerians shouldn't castigate d govt even if they are wrong? What do u suggest should be done in such an instance? How does castigating d govt prevent it from doing its job? What in your opinion will "bring about the better Nigeria we all hope for?" What are d better ways u are referring?
We castigate without bringing meaningful solutions, I see it alot on this platform. However, even the few that that bring solutions sadly they're not heard probably they don't follow the right channels or their voices aren't loud enough.
Our leaders are a mirror of us their followers ( In a democracy), we shout on social media but fail to galvanise support to put in better people to lead us. That's how societies move forward. Not crying every four years cycle

This is the kinda positive and good news that make the children of hate, frustration and perdition go mad and wail.
They are even doing that on the thread before we arrived, are we surprised?
Hell nooooo wink cheesy
Just like Peak milk : it's in them.
Daily bitterness and hatred for any good news about our darling country.

Make all of una pessimist take am.......

I HATE TRAINS.
I HATE BRIDGES.
I HATE RICE.
I HATE TALLEST BUILDING EAST OF THE NIGER



Let me give the background to this piece. I was reading some comments on Twitter early in the week, when I ran into this one by one Dr Ben Gbenro: “Why are some people allergic to good news about Nigeria? You are angry about the test-run of Lagos-Ibadan rail, you are angry about the development in Onne Port, but will eagerly amplify any negative news even if it’s not true. Something is wrong with you and I am here to tell you.”

Of course, that comment generated responses, both positive and negative. But the one that caught my fancy specially was by Ayekooto, who declared: “We have got to a stage when GMB achievements can no longer be denied but hated. I hate trains. I hate bridges. I hate rice.”

Very profound. A lot of people can no longer deny the many achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari, particularly in the area of infrastructure, building a new Nigeria, and so, they have decided to hate it. Sad. Very sad.

Nobody can deny that there are very serious challenges in the country, particularly in the areas of security, the economy, and standard of living generally. But that is not all there is to Nigeria of today, and those challenges are being addressed very robustly. That hymn says “behind a frowning providence, He hides a smiling face. His purposes will ripen fast, unfolding every hour.” We will surely see an end to the challenges, if we all work together, and eschew hate speeches.

Why then do some people choose to see and amplify only negative things? Why do they choose to remain willfully blind and deaf to positive things? And surrounded and confronted by salutary developments, they keep repeating; what has the Buhari administration achieved? Show us.

You tell them that just last weekend, there was a test run of the Lagos-Ibadan rail project, with brand new coaches that will begin commercial operation before the end of the year.That is happening in a country where we were told we couldn’t afford new coaches when our oil was selling at over 100 dollars per barrel. Now, at about 40 dollars per barrel, we are launching new coaches. Instead of giving credit to a prudent government, they just say; I hate trains.

Okay, if you hate trains, what of brand new airports in Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, Enugu, and others in the works? There was a time we were said to parade the worst airports in the world. But not any longer. Buhari reversed it in his four years. What do they say about that? They look up, look down, scratch their heads, and say; I hate airports. I’ve never even boarded a plane in my life, and I don’t want to board. Will I ever enter a plane if I’d been killed by bandits?

Okay. You hate airports and planes. What of bridges being built over rivers in different parts of the country, most especially the Second River Niger Bridge, which the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) built with mouth for 16 years. You tell them that the bridge is almost 50% done, and should be completed in the first quarter of 2022. There’s also the Loko-Oweto Bridge, linking Benue and Nasarawa States. It was started by a previous administration, but almost completed now. Like a cornered rat, their eyes dart furtively from corner to corner, seeking a hole to enter. Finding none, they tell you deadpan: I hate bridges.

Okay. All those are physical structures. So they want stomach infrastructure. You then tell them of the rice revolution, which has freed us from being a net importer of the product in the world. You point out that if Buhari hadn’t put his money where his mouth was, and encouraged us to go back to the land, causing rice farmers to rise from six to 12 million, we would have been in serious trouble when COVID-19 struck. How would we have imported rice, with all international borders closed, and no foreign exchange to even place orders? They pat their tummies gingerly, belch after a hearty meal, and then declare: I hate rice.

A Cancer Centre has been built and commissioned by President Buhari at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH). An ultra-modern diagnostic center also built and commissioned in Kano. And just this week, another diagnostic centre built at a cost of $5.5 million, was commissioned at the Federal Medical Centre, Umuahia, in Abia State. What do they say of all these? “I hate hospitals. May I never need to use any diagnostic centre. It is not my portion.”

You join them to say amen, since you don’t have a hateful heart. And you remind them that the largest ever vessel in the country, Maerskline Stadelhorn, with a length of 300 meters and width of 48 meters, berthed few days ago at Onne Port, in Rivers State. That is the biggest ever container vessel to berth in any part of Nigeria. Onne people were delirious with joy, and praised the government to high heavens, because no vessel had come to their port for 12 years, till August last year, under Buhari. You tell the naysayers the positive economic implications, but they refuse to listen. They dive under water, shouting as they go: We hate container vessels.

You then take them to Yenagoa, in Bayelsa State. Just last week, the skyline of South-south and South-East was transformed, as President Buhari commissioned the tallest Federal Government structure in the region, the 17-story Nigerian Content Tower, Headquarters of Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB).

The architectural masterpiece occupies an area equivalent to four football fields, and has a 1,000 seater conference centre plus a 10 MW power plant. Started in late 2015, now completed, all under Buhari. Engineer Simbi Wabote, Executive Secretary of the agency paid tribute to the resolve, determination and encouragement of the President, that saw the structure to completion in record time. And Wabote, third E.S of NCDMB in its 10 years history, has written his name in gold. Just because he has a supportive President.

Minister of State for Petroleum, Chief Timipre Sylvia, under whose tenure as Bayelsa State Governor the land was allocated for the project, declared: “The commissioning of this building is symbolic in many ways. It shows that Mr President is keen to see infrastructural development in every part of the country...It shows that skyscrapers and other laudable infrastructure can be built in the Niger Delta.”

But they say Buhari hasn’t achieved anything. You show them the 17-story building, and as they gaze skyward, their caps and headgear fall off. You pick the cap and headgear, dust and hand them back. And you ask, brothers and sisters, how now? Rather than admit defeat, they pull the caps and headgear over their eyes, and grumbled: We hate skyscrapers. They make us dizzy.

At that point, you pity them.
You realize that they need prayers.
They hate everything good.
They hate anything uplifting.
They hate development.
They hate their country.
They even hate themselves.


GOD BLESS NIGERIA.
