 Politics › Re: Forensic Audit Uncovers N3.3 Trillion Inflated Figure In Fuel Subsidy Claims by benjaminlawson(m): 12:20pm On Jun 10, 2024 |
Dpharisee:I disagree with the above, the man is guilty even than buhari, he knows very well that buhari is incapable, but because they want to annex Nigeria to themselves, he brought him to power, and claimed emilokan after him. The act of reappointing the man at the center of subsidy scam is a total disservice to the poor masses of this country, because he swore to serve with the best of his ability and not allow personal interest to overtime the public interest. NNPC MD, suppose to be sharing the same room in kirikiri prison with emefele because they all committed an act economic sabotage. Even though the policy of emefele was painful, but there are some benefit we enjoyed, like going to any retail outlet to purchase item without cash, but with only your ATM or android phone to transfer the money, this has made shopping more convenient, but all Kayri' s policies are agony and suffering, that even levels 14 or 15 officers can no longer ride car in most places. |

Yakubu and all this family and friends that supported him are going to suffer 10 times what ordinary Nigerians are suffering now. He exhibited wicked appetite for wealth, and compromised our electoral process. Under him, election figures were altered, residence commissioners under him cleared what they like, a case study, is one who came with a sheet of paper in presence of heads of security forces in that state to announce a fake result. To safe face,0 he was suspended, and up till today he has not yet been prosecuted. That's is the reason he and the man they claimed won all chorused go to court. Formal President Jonathan recently told us that, because they know there is no justice in our courts that is why the politicians say so, for their compromise the man even handsomely rewarded the judiciary by increase their salary by 300%, while he is unconcern with other, but started negotiating the increase by adding 3,000 and 2,000. 1 Like |

Which kind of injustice is this, when Dangote increased the price of cement from 5000 to 10000 did you people ordered him to revert to old price, electricity tariff was increased by more the 300% where were you people, when every item in the market were increased due to subsidy gone madness, who ordered any one to reverse the increase, is DSTV operating outside our economy, the increase in price level does not affecting their own cost of production?. Let us be considerate, or is it because the company is foreign own firm? You people will be wasting our money on foreign jamborees and tell us you are looking for investors, is this the way we will treat them.

| Politics › Re: Wage: Governors Won’t Pay Above ₦70,000 - NGF by benjaminlawson(m): 10:00am On Jun 07, 2024 |
When all the governors unanimously agreed that subsidy should be removed, did they not know that there are responsibilities that are accompany the removal? The issue is simple, any governor that failed to pay should give up their sits and trow it open for any opposition party that could pay, because minimum wage is constitutional matter, and failure to abide by constitution implies that they are not worthy to be there. When our law stipulated how much to them, judges, senate and House of rep including state legislators, no governor complaint that they can pay either the themselves, the judges in their state and house members in their state, but when it comes to poor masses, then there is no money to pay. Recently, it has been observed that governor are real cabal in this country, they dictate to president, Senate and House of Rep. Because coming into office of other political office holder depend on their support in their individual states. NLC and TUC should make sure that they lead the negotiation for workers in each state, because local branches have been completely captured by the governors, if Edo is paying 70 thousand, no state can be exempted. The recent video on social media revealed that most of politicians that are rich in this country are mostly governors both past and present, we see one of them yeye bello running up and on 84 billion corruption allegation, if they don't have money, how possible that a person will eat such amount. |

Can you see the gang up of elites. The president did not direct minister of finance to bring the cost implication, look to affordability, and impact on inflation, all those advocate of slavery wage, that increase in workers salary will lead to inflation, have lost their voices now. What are the responsibilities of a judge, that a director in ministry or a professor in university did not do. ASUU up to you, demand for 5 million naira monthly salary, and if they failed let them also revert to normal salaries for judges. Also in this case you will not hear any corrupt state governor claiming they cannot pay, there will be money for them to pay, but that of common man will be subjected to availability of money, confirmation of impact on inflation. 6 Likes 1 Share |

The only thing that am yet to understand is that, does the purse of this country opened so wide that any one can just deep his hand in any government account and steal billions and trillions unchecked. And with ministers, DG of MGDs all stealing billions, they will come and tell the masses that if they pay a leaving wage it will collapse the economy or lead to inflation. Or that we need to endure hardship, as if they themselves can endure hardship. One then is sure according to Yoruba proverb, "malu ti ko niru Oluwa lo nle esinsin fun, meaning God drives away lies for cow without a tail, it is by His mercies we are surviving, left for these wicked leaders at all levels, they don't want us to survive. |

Judiciary has been compromised, particularly under the present CJN. All cased that are determined based on our law has been compromised, that is, if someone lost election and ran to his local government to falsify figures not minding it leads to over voting, which in term past if automatic nullification of that election, but today they do it and they confirmed it. Under our legal system today, an institution that issued certificate cannot validly authenticate it, but other outsiders are legally permitted to do that, all these lead to their compromise as former president claimed. |

Why are you blaming APC for opposition ineffectiveness, rationally, any ruling party we prefer weak oppositions to perpetrate their evil agenda. The blame should go to Atiku, Peter Obi, Omoyele and other opposition leaders, if APC conducted their opposition activities the way these people are conducting it sluggishly now without focus, they will never smell the sit of power. So if opposition parties intended to take over from this lack of focus and self serving party, they must wake up from their slumber and provide an alternative views in all matters. The issue of this minimum wage that is lingering on for now, if it were when APC is in opposition, they would have join labor to demonstrate to discredit the government, but today they just sit down look and feel unconcerned. 1 Like 1 Share |

Timothy89:Your argument above was one being put forward by enemies of Nigeria subsidy removal outcry. They claimed that only few people are benefiting from subsidy, when the man ignorantly said subsidy is gone, I think people now agreed with him that masses did not enjoy subsidy. Now back to your statement and many other people in this platform and other places, that the civil servant are few, you people forget that as few as civil servants are, they provide what all Nigerians enjoy, and all other people are engaging in their private business and earned there living. You compliant that why did they tampered with National grid, are they not the one working there day and night? Or you think it is mr. President or minister of power that are manning it. So also is the hospital, schools, and many other public services you enjoy. They failed to provide these services just one day because of trike, you people are lamenting. Yes they are few according to you claim. |

Prigidypogodo:I totally agree with you on the above assertion, those that are advocate of inflation when salary increased are paid agents of government. Also those who complain that private sectors may not be able to pay is also false, because many private companies are paying above minimum wage. The state governments that people are insinuation that they may not pay is also false, they have more than enough to pay, but prefer to enrich themselves at the expense of masses and workers that is why they always claimed they cant pay. If you see the billions they are wasting on daily bases you will pity Nigeria, this is what make many of them to be running up and down after leaving office as EFCC is after them e.g yeye bello. |

Economy is recovering you people are buying yatch for 5 billion, renovating and building president and vice president office with amount running to billions of naira.

Those local and international people/instructions that praise the government are grouped into two; the local ones are government appointees or their party members. The international ones are their lord, who dictated policies that must be pursued, like removal of subsidy, floating of naira and increase in taxes. Looking at economic indices, non of it is pointing to economic well-being of our citizen, one will not be surprised because the said "na statistics we go shop" That is why they embark on self appraisal why in reality, their failure is even visible to the blind. |

Since these institution are having both workers and students from across the country, it is also expedient that the governing council should reflect this. |
