The worst part of it is Akwa ibom State.
You will wonder why you see thousands of Akwa ibomites flooding places like Lagos, Abuja, port Harcourt, delta, bayelsa etc.
It's because life is very difficult in Akwa ibom,
We only have governors who only build worship centers, stadiums, 10 lanes, 24 story building and other unnecessary things that will not benefit the people.
Akwa ibom is not what most of you believe it is. As graduates, youths and everyone, we are suffering here. Workers are not paid, no gratuity ,no pension, no job etc. Only those that enjoy the states are the idiots who collects 20 thousand every week to sing praises to the government.
Udom Emmanuel is a total failure and a big disaster to Akwa ibom, every reasonable Akwa ibomites knows this
Thank your star you are not from Abia,Bayelsa, Delta or Edo because they also collect derivation but nothing to show for . atleast Akwa de do road, bridge and infrastructure

You are speaking through the prism of corruption, we need good leaders in every aspect of governance, that is why we need to vote in right leaders into office.

If Buhari was leading by example, this governors would have been exposed a long time ago

Pray, what do you expect Buhari to do? You think we are a unitary state, or it is Buhari who votes in the govs every election cycle?

While we all spend precious time criticizing the president, the govs are carrying out multiple cases of impunity right under our noses...

Soory sir

You cant expect abia with 2 oil wells to receive the same allocations as river state that has almost 31 oil wells

There is a formula

The more revenue you bring, the more allocations you get

Dude, the story is much bigger and started way before this issue of federal gov’t refunds to oil producing states! Onuman knows what he’s talking about, but i wouldn’t expect you to understand where he’s coming from! You probably saw the pathetic amounts Imo and Abia states received and got an instant boner as you couldn’t contain your excitement and happiness!

Bihari has a lot to be blamed for, I don't know how old you were during OBJ's time, even as corrupt as he was he put a lot of governors on their toes, that's a corrupt OBJ, now imagine someone who has more integrity than him, I'm not blaming only the president but he could have also done a lot to make some positive change as the supposed father of the nation

What do you advise?
Jungle Justice?

Good question my brother. Truth is we have lost hope in the Efcc but like you rightly asked, which way next? For me, I will say let us start by putting legislation in place that will forbid elected officeholders from having their children school abroad, and prevent them and members of their families from embarking on medical tourism except the case is a special one. In that case, the nature of the ailment must be made public before such approval is given. Thirdly, disband state electoral commissions and return everything to inec. Remove all sorts of immunity from elected officers at state levels and Lastly, debates, manifestos and budget breakdowns must be made compulsory. Let's start from here and see how it goes.

Bayelsa State, Delta State and Abia State have been unfortunate with worst Governors. Upon all the billions nothing to show for it.

Recently the Governor of Bayelsa was crying fouls because of flooding in his State as if his government is bankrupt.

Na God go punish all of them and their families too. Useless old wicked fools
Please add cross River state, unfinished projects full cross River

Atleast, We should admit Buhari is not the problem of this nation.
We knew this long time ago and we’re usually mentioning it, but the hatred of Igbos & their noise makes it look like buhari is bad. Buhari really tried for these Governor’s to bail out their each state but they didn’t..

Even despite the Covid 19 effect, He also gave these governors Paris Bail out funds! Buhari can’t go to each state one by one. Highest he can do is to give your state Governor money. The state Governor would receive money and kept quiet like nothing happened..

The president can do no more than the law allows. Govs have immunity. Besides, we have an electoral system where voters decide the characters to be elected govs.

Besides, obj contravened the constitution by hounding govs he fell out with, with the efcc just for the optics. At the end nothing came out of it.

This is a federation and not a unitary state. The president can do no more than shoo an errant fly away.

EFCC is nothing but a political tool. EFCC won't notice the money unless the governors go against the presidency.

In your demented mind, so how many of the SS/SE governors are in support of the presidency or even belong to the ruling party, and how many of them has EFCC gone after

Hahahaha... Do you know why I laughed?
I will tell you.

The National Assembly proposed 44 bills and the Constitution states that at least 24 State Houses of Assembly must say Yes to everyone of them, then the President will sign and it will become law.

It is over one year and only 11 States have responded. I will name them: Abia, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Delta, Edo, Kaduna, Katsina, Kogi, Lagos, Ogun and Osun states.

The remaining 25 Governors who control the State Houses of Assemblys ordered that they won't allow the Speakers move on with the Constitutional Amendment unless 4 items are added:

State Police and 3 other items that satisfy their yearnings.

There was a reason I gave you this background... So tell me who will approve all of these things you mentioned?

I understand you bro but look at delta state with all the money, masses are suffering, no gratuity and pension for 7 years now, delta state is the headquarters of keke even ladies sef ride keke now in delta state, no roads, no good hospitals, no infrastructure just yahoo boys and hookup girls. The governor okowa with is rotten teeth is busy campaigning to be vp. Glad this 8s coming coming out now, the governors should be called out regularly and massive protest in niger delta states
Man this is not thrilling to read at all. And I used to think delta state is good oo! Niger delta states needs to really speak up like you said for real. This is sure the right time cuz there’s division in Pdp and many would buy the speak ups!

The okowa seem to be really terrible. He also fought with those that brought him to power. All the best to you guys sha..

Why all attention of the common masses are normally fixed on the man in abuja, their immediate CEO of the state fleece their money without challenge or scrutiny.
I've been shouting the same thing. The crooks are not in Abuja, they're in the government house states.
