You're fooling yourself.

Shut it, do you know how Lagos looks like before Fashola came.
You are probably a JJC in Lagos.

hey kid,
that your uncle no longer has access to siphon national cake money is no reason for you to go beserk!
Go and work or take up farming, something.
if he can no longer sponsor your studies in abroad, you can take up construction work or something.
just stop disturbing our ears with your whining!
it is getting boring, Ok?

ayukdaboss:
Abacha - Wasn't an APC Member. There was no APC during that era.

OBJ - Was a PDP Member.

Please explain, how did APC come into the picture?

Similarly, another member of the House from Ogun State, Adewusi Razak, said President Goodluck Jonathan, had not committed any impeachable offence to warrant any call for his impeachment.

Caseless:
so u jst accepted that both tinubu and fashola u hate so much have made lagos habitable. U are a hypocrite!

Stop acting as if you don't know any Politician that has decamped to PDP.

Selective amnesia won't do anyone good here.

I'll stop here. I'll try to avoid people like you online and in reality.

op you are very s.tupid for opening such a thread.

ba7man:
But doesn't apply to PDP members guilty of the same, right?

Aburo, stop embarrassing yourself, there are many learned people here. This is not about APC, this is about, common sense, decency and the rule of law.
1. Where does the constitution of Nigeria says the speaker or his deputy cannot travel out of their state?
2. Permit? (Dont make me laugh!), Who does the speaker seek permission from? The Governor?
3. Leave without notice? You mean the speaker must notify everyone of his whereabouts even when the house is not in session?
4. Can you educate us about this due process?
5. Missing from where?
The part of the constitution you quoted about a member of the House vacating his seat in the House is a general application for removing a member from the house not for removing the speaker. Even if you must apply it, read the underlined again:
(f) without just cause he is absent from meetings of the House of which he is a member for a period amounting in the aggregate to more than one-third of the total number of days during which the House meets in any one year;
You mean the speaker and his deputy have been absent from house sitting for about a third of their meetings this year? or they were sacked because they were not part of one kangaroo sitting of last week?
Stop fooling yourself aburo, read and understand the constitution before quoting it, where you don't understand or incapable of understanding, ask questions.

He should find a way to pay the Legislathieves 20% of the N2Billion CBN SME loan?
Lol

Let me remind you: Fayose clearly states:

"They are asking for what I don't have. Where will I get that kind of money from? I won't give them a dime."


The problem I have on this issue is our people do not understand the real event.

OAM4J:
What are you really on about?

What constitution are you talking about? What duty was abandoned? Is it unconstitutional for a speaker of another state to travel to Lagos or anywhere in the country or out of the country?

Are there no procedure for convening the house? Was the house duly convened and the speaker and his deputy found missing?

Who is a fool here that doesn't know this group-7 illegally convened the house at the dictates of their thug master Fayose to do his bidding?

Stop this arguments like Nigerians are fools. Well, may be Lagbaja is right about Nigerian 160 million 'mumus', but am definitely not one.

OkikiOluwa1:
That's not what am saying.
My concern is why should only 7 people impeach the speaker when the number of other members in the house supersedes them.
I m against the act of negligence of duty acted by the speaker & his deputy.
What am against is the impeachment process.
Cos this is just similar to what happened in Rivers last year.
Where some small groups of house members ll just rise up & declare that they impeached a speaker without due process.
Is this a democracy or. Where every Tom, D ick & Harry ll come & per take in.

Expect macing of heads soon in Ekiti.
Some people's head ll be maced like Chidi Loyd's head
The military is watching us sha!

[size=18pt]LASG to close Dopemu, Iyana Ipaja bridges[/size]

The Lagos State Government says Dopemu and Iyana Ipaja bridges along the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway will be closed to public use for 10 days each.

The government explained that while Dopemu Bridge would be closed from Saturday March 15 to Monday March 24, 2014, Iyana Ipaja Bridge would be shut between Tuesday March 25 and Saturday April 5, 2014.

The spokesman for the Ministry of Transportation, Sina Thorpe, on Tuesday in Alausa, Ikeja, explained that the closure was to allow for the maintenance of the bridges, which would commence on Saturday March 15, and end on April 5, 2014.

He said, “The contractor would commence work at the Dopemu Bridge for the first 10 days — Saturday March 15 to Monday March 24, 2014 — and thereafter move to the Iyana Ipaja Bridge from Tuesday March 25 to Saturday April 5, 2014.”

Thorpe, an Assistant Director, said the government had put strategies in place to prevent traffic problem in the areas during the period of the repairs. He said during the period that the contractor would be working on Dopemu Bridge, motorists were expected to obey government’s plan.

“Consequently, vehicles approaching Dopemu Bridge from Ile-Zik inward Iyana Ipaja could make a U-turn back to Dopemu Bridge via the open median along the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway or take a left turn into Alimoso Road and use the link roads in the area back to Akowonjo or Iyana Ipaja Road.

“Similary, vehicles coming from Orile Agege and environs, and approaching Dopemu Bridge, will take a right turn through Surulere Road to link Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway and make use of the open median barrier into the link roads. In addition, vehicles from Akowonjo, Shasha going into Agege will go through Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway and turn at Ile Zik back to Agege,” the spokesman explained.

Thorpe said by the time repair works commenced on the Iyana Ipaja Bridge, vehicular movement in the area would also follow the special plan.

He said, “Vehicles coming from Dopemu, and proposing to use the Iyana Ipaja Bridge, will either make a U-turn back to Iyana Ipaja Bridge or a left turn into Abule Oki Street at the proposed median barrier opening on the expressway, go through Chief Adebayo Street back to Iyana Ipaja Roundabout.

“Also, vehicles coming from Iyana Ipaja Road will use the Abule Oki Street and navigate through Chief Adebayo Street back to Iyana Ipaja Roundabout, while vehicles coming from Iyana Ipaja Road will have to go through Dopemu Bridge area.”

He added that the traffic re-routing would facilitate seamless flow of traffic, urging motorists to use alternative routes provided by the government to avoid delays.

“The state government appeals for caution and cooperation from all road users by obeying all traffic regulations and ensuring traffic flow during the period of closure.

“The government, while regretting any inconveniences, has directed all relevant agencies to ensure free flow of traffic,” Thorpe said.

OkikiOluwa1:
Me, am not talking abt the whereabouts of the speaker or his deputy.
My question is: is it possible for minority members to impeach a speaker.
Cos, this was similar to what happened in Rivers State last year.

Only in Nigeria ll minorities be impeaching speakers.
Only in Nigeria ll 16 be greater than 19 (Last years Govs Forum palava)

God bless you @OP

...[size=18pt]most of the media houses in Nigeria, since they reside in Lagos, now sympathize with anything APC.[/size] Lol *cry babies

I watched Fayose's conversation on TV and I saw a bold & fearless true son of Ekiti. I've lived in Ekiti & I know they do not take sh/t.

Fayose do not give a damn about Tinubu, TVC, Sahara reporters and all their sympathetic goons in Lagos and other parts of the country including the "Go and die" comrade who relocated the house of assembly to his bedroom.

In Fayose's expression: I am the Governor here; and my people love me. You cannot dictate the affairs of this state in Lagos; this is Ekiti state, not Lagos. Yes they were impeached and nothing will happen; including you journalists, whatever anyone of you says isn't our priority; again I am the governor here...


I had to give Fayose a standing ovation for representing all Ekiti men and women out there.


God bless Fayose,
Ekiti belongs to Ekiti people. Whoever wants to live in Tinubu's casket should kindly resign and relocate.
