Always taking glory of all Ambode's projects, where are the projects he started and finished since his inception? Mr pointer
The guy is just over a year in office. Ambode had good four years, why did he fail to complete the project despite diverting funds for the metro line to project?

Government is continuum so there is nothing like Ambode’s project. It’s a Lagos state government project and governor Sanwo-Olu is the one that completed it. Period.

kayjay69:
The only people I see regrouping are politicians and it is for their selfish aim.

Tinubu, if given the chance, will rule Nigeria with a highhand like he does Lagos.

If you consider Lagos to be a monumental success, then congrats. If you consider Lagos to an abysmal failure, then stand against the likes of Tinubu who are comfortable entrenching Nigerians in poverty.

Posterity always remembers.
There is no state that is a monumental success in Nigeria. However, Lagos stands out amongst all the 36 states in the country. Since the so called Tinubu era started in Lagos, the state has moved up to become the 5th largest economy in Africa.

Let’s even compare Tinubu to his 1999 contemporaries, how many of them laid a framework in their respective states that are still operational till today? Let’s quit the hatred and be realistic. Tinubu is a far better politician and administrator than his peers. If the 2023 options are limited to Tinubu, Atiku, Peter Obi, Umahi, or Orji Kalu, I will easily support Tinubu because of his track record of getting things done.

I will refer you to number (2) on my post

(2) Does the courts have powers to expunge an act of the National assembly from the constitution?
If the section is inconsistent with any section of the constitution, the court can declare the inconsistent section null and void.

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the high court so it’s a settled case already.

sarrki:
The Bayelsa state supreme court judgment is one that has forced me into reading the electoral act and its provisions once again.

In my quest,the circled section caught my attention,but was shocked to be informed that section had been expunged from our laws.

I am not a Lawyer by profession of which I had admitted before now. So my Learned elders and Law Gurus,please help me learn on the following as it concerns our laws:

(1) If the National assembly makes a law and is assented to by the president,does it not become part of the constitution?

(2) Does the courts have powers to expunge an act of the National assembly from the constitution?

(3) If the Courts have powers to expunge acts of the National assembly,why then is it advised that if there are issues with certain laws or constitution,the National should act to correct same and not the courts?

(4) When an amendment is made to our laws or acts,for how long does it bind?

Please help me to learn!
The particular section you circled in red was declared null and void by a high court judge some years ago. The Supreme Court later upheld the decision of the high court because it was not appealed. So, that section is just there on paper, it cannot be enforced.
Politics › Re: "I Wept Because Of Buhari's Health" - Bisi Akande by ALTERNATEID: 6:31pm On May 01, 2017
Baba Akande is very funny. The proper thing to do for an elder statesman of his caliber is to ask the president to resign instead of calling for prayers for him. The president is obviously no longer fit to continue in office and calling for prayers instead of resignation is just putting it lightly.
Christianity Etc › Re: Lord, If It’s Your Will To Break Up Nigeria, Break It Now - Oyedepo Prays by ALTERNATEID: 3:59pm On Jan 13, 2017
All the northern forces that are sponsoring this uprising and killings, I decree the curse of God upon them.

God is omnipotent, omniscience and omnipresent. He saw the herdsmen when they were planning the attacked, he did not stop or curse them. They executed their evil plan and Oyedepo is here wasting time decreeing curses on them. Prayer or cursed is not the solution. The southern Kaduna people should arm themselves and be ready for the next attack.

hatred sha.
You probably mistook me for one of the hateful iPod trolls on Nairaland, very wrong. I campaigned and voted for Buhari. I still support his government till today. That notwithstanding, we must call him out when he's wrong. The above list is very unfair to the south and against the federal character principle. The president should not just be biased, he should be seen as not being biased.

Can u tell why indian hemp shud be banned and not alcohol.
Indian hemp is a hard drug that can lead to mental instability when abused. Alcohol is just a recreational drink that will make you trendy. They are different.

Just negodu ... Pretending like you have a short at becoming am ambassador yet the people wey you dey fight for will never give a damn about you.
The fact that we support the president doesn't mean we should not call him out when he takes a very wrong decision. Nominating two ambassadorial designate from 8 northern states while Lagos is the only southern state with two doesn't really reflect the principle of federal character as enshrined in the constitution of the country. Whether I will be appointed or benefit somehow is irrelevant to the subject of discussion.

Can you provide me with details of the current ambassadors so that we can make an informed comparison?
Politics › Re: Full List Of Fresh Ambassadorial Nominees Submitted By President Buhari Today by ALTERNATEID: 4:31pm On Jan 12, 2017
Two nominees each from Bauchi, Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, kwara, Lagos, Plateau, Sokoto and Zamfara. 8 States from the north had two nominees while Lagos is the only state with two nominees from the south. Whatever the criteria used by the president in drawing up this list, it is very unfair to the south.
Politics › Re: Borno Government Bans Sale Of Alcohol, Brothels, Charcoal And Firewood by ALTERNATEID: 4:23pm On Jan 12, 2017
Prostitution is illegal and that's understandable. But stopping people from selling and consumption of alcohol is illegal and a breach of the fundamental human right of the people who desire to sell and consume alcohol. The prohibition should be challenged before a court of competent jurisdiction.

Also Providing response to the issues raised by the Senate committee on the legal and operational status of the NPDC, Matashi explained that like all other indigenous oil and gas companies operating in Nigeria, the NPDC is self-funded which means that gross revenue are not remitted to the Federation Account .


Agreed. But, what about the operating surplus of NPDC? Since NPDC is a full subsidiary of NNPC, all its operating surplus/profit should be remitted to the federation account.

You and silly reno are both ignorant of the position of the law. The code of corporate governance issued by the FRC is a subsidiary law that derives its powers from the FRC act of 2011. The said act was signed into law by Goodluck Jonathan.
