INEC does not organize local government election. It is the state electoral Commission that organize local government elections...









seanfer:
OBJ is always showing us how shameless an adult he is. The 1999 election that brought him to power was the same that brought all the 774 LGA Chairmen conducted by INEC. But once this old man gets into power he made sure that INEC never organize election for LGS again and this made the state Governors to turn LGAs to their second cashing point. He refused to pay all the LGAs in Lagos for years even when the Supreme Court judgement that order him to pay the allocation.
OBJ is the foundation of our problems since 1999. He introduced money bag legislature, used federal government agencies to witch-hunt his political enemies.
So the old man should keep shut.

Obasango or whatever he calls himself should just keep shut, na thunder go fire him. His voice is not the voice of God neither that of the people. He's one of the strong architect that deprived us of our freedom and good life just because of himself and family alone.

When they are giving more powers to the traditional rulers, still at the same time having a LG chair.


When a governor goes to a lga, the first place he/she goes to is the traditional ruler. In an indirect way, telling the LG chair that they are not important.


In civilized places, the mayor is the leader of their LG. In Nigeria, the so called chiefs are the leaders. So what do you want the LG chair to do.
He gets rubbished by the Chiefs, the governor, the people, and even Nigeria's number 1.


All he does is get some money from the allocation money, after the governor and aides have pinched theirs, then the LG chair pinches a little and gives the rest to the Chiefs.

After all these parallel governance, how can anything get done for long term.


We are our own hindrance.

SHUT UR DIRTY MOUTH..... OUT OF THE 774 LG IN NIGERIA, WHY IS LAGOS CASE TAKE DIFFERENT? IN 1999 LAGOS STATE GOVT CHOOSE TO CREATE ADDITIONAL MORE COUNCIL WITH THE HOPE TO GET MORE FUND FROM THE FG & OBJ ADVISED THE GOVERNOR TO RETURN TO STATUS QUO BUT HE REFUSED. FG THEN DECIDE NOT TO RELEASE FUND, IS THAT OBJ FAULT OR THE GOVERNOR?
STOP SPREADING LIE.... because U ARE BENEFITING FROM APC GOVT.

What are you saying? You must be a comedian. Didn't Obasanjo continue holding onto the funds even after the Lagos State Government had, in obedience to Supreme Court ruling, reduced those LGAs to LCDAs which were meant to be funded by Lagos State itself hence the issue of seeking funds from the center totally out of the scenario? Those telling you that OBJ is at the root of the faulty structure we operate till today are perfectly correct. Wasn't it during his so-called LGA reforms as military HOS that nearly 50% of items in both concurrent and residual lists transferred to the exclusive list all in the name of him seeking the same one-Nigeria he has suddenly woken up to describe as Fulani hegemony? Wasn't it during his time that schools were taken over from missionaries and transferred to the Northerners-dominated federal military government thereby leading to the beginning of the crash in the standards of education and loss of informal education content from the curriculum?

USE UR BRAIN NOT UR ANUS.... FACT IF U CARE TO KNOW; FROM 1999 TILL DATE NO OTHER ADMINISTRATION BEAT OBJ/ATIKU RECORD IN ALL RAMIFICATIONS.
The same OBJ-Atiku administration which pioneered state sponsored genocide as exemplified in Odi and Zakibiam, signed into law the National Assembly jumbo allowances which erodes as much as 25% of our budget, unethically approved private university licenses for themselves while still in office, came out openly to fight dirty and accuse each other of having milked the country dry through plundering PTDF funds, Marine Float account etc, increased pump price up to ten times within eight years without any project to show for it, sold crude oil at an average of $110 for 8 years and ironically the nation's foreign reserves continued to dwindle, openly encouraged politics of incessant defection and through that sowing the seeds of this present scourge of politics devoid of ideology and principles, left a legacy and culture of broad daylight ballot box snatching during elections despite they themselves being ushered in in 1999 with a free fair and transparent election, allowed Book Haram to consolidate from its embryonic stage into the cancerous form all for the sake of political capital, etc. I am still at loss as to what metrics you used to rate OBJ-Atiku administration as the best.

OBJ introduced the State Electiral commission in 2002. Before the.man the LGA elections were held same time with other national elections. Please just do little research and you will know that OBJ destroyed the LGA autonomy.

People from Badore , Langbasa to Ajah are really suffering on that Ado road to Ajah on daily bases anything 5:00am forget it.
And those Fake Ass Trucks on the way always.

If you don’t have anything to say, get lost.

How is it possible for the President to give the Power to conduct election to the State?
Isn’t that the responsibility of the legislatives which was already part of the constitution while drafting it?

sorry please I’m allergic to arguing with kids and ignoramus

The Constitution of the Second Republic (1979-1983) gave state governors the power to dissolve local councils and appoint Caretaker Committees to run the affairs of local councils. The 1999 Constitution currently being operated empowers state governors to appoint chairpersons of State Independent Electoral Commissions, the electoral umpires mandated to conduct local government elections in the 36 states of the federation.

https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/234680918.pdf
The Local Government election has been under the control of the state in 1979 constitution which was the precursor to the 1999 constitution. Obasanjo didn’t just introduced the part while he was the president after 1999 constitution.

The Obasanjo we your elders know would have loved to have the control of the local governments to himself so as to have full control on them and not leave them to be controlled by the state governors.
There were 6 recalcitrant governors under the AD party then in the South West. So Obasanjo would be foolish to give them the control of the Local Governments which were currently in his hands?

please when elders are discussing here, siddon, read and learn

We complain that our government is bad and they are thieves. But in actuality we the people of this nation are the ones that are bad and also doing the stealing. A government of the people by the people for the people. So its the people who forget the struggle once they become part of the government. Go and check, its the poor that become rich or well to do that oppress the poor more.
