PoliticsRe: Buy Petrol At ₦‎1,000 Per Litre Or CNG At ₦‎200, Tinubu Tells Nigerians by bixton(m):
Tayorshd87:
So we shouldn't use CNG at 200 or what are u trying to say 🤔
Today they are telling you to buy at 200, have you also ask yourself for how long will it remain so and who will make it remain so?

Why has the Presidential fleet of cars and that of PBAT and VP Shettima and that of all the National Assembly members, Federal Ministers, all Federal Permanent Secretaries and Directors, the NSA, etc,etc,etc made to be using CNG?
PoliticsRe: Denying Igbo Presidency Over Secession Attempts Is Unfair – Obasanjo by bixton(m): 8:54am On Oct 23, 2024
Chekwume16:
Obasanjo is playing to the gallery. No one is denying igbo presidency. Last election was a clear example. A lot of us voted for obi not because he is an igbo like me but because we believed in him. Southerners were even the ones that betrayed him. Especially People like Wike. Secondly igbos need to know how to play politics. They are too hostile towards other regions. They don't believe in building bridges. Their arrogance will always deprive them of that exalted position.
Nobody betrayed PO but he did that to himself. He felt the masses will vote for him and he turned himself into a lone ranger even within the LP. These so called money he keeps doling out to gratify people like he is a thorough breed philanthropist should have been used to mobilize unit polling agents all over the nation but both him and LP did masarati and he went to court with little or nothing tangible other than to ride on sentiments.
I still find it funny and disinteresting that you can't actually point to anyone who had worked with him when he was as govenror for 8 years who are still valuable in the Nigerian politics or who will walk with him openly.

PBAT is very much unserious and not in tune with economic realities. He even lacks understanding of a working economy and how to go about it. Many of those around him don't know otherwise.
If this is how PBAT will be effing up may he and his family and many of those in his admnisration and cabinet not happen to Nigeria come 2027 elections.

I will volunteer myself as a unit poll agent to any political party that will bring a presidential aspirant and running mate that will be able to kick him out of Aso Rock and also kick his likes out of the National Assembly.
We the masses have to start recalling home some of these notorious Senators for doing nothing significant.

If the FG can do this to cooking gas why have they refused to do same for the petrol from Dangote refinery?

Or they just want to strong arm the LPG sellers?
How many people are using gas compared to the use of petrol which is been used by all of us be it directly or indirectly whereas the issues with LPG is just directly and has no indirect multiplier effect.

Also, taking your comment to the extreme, that means that government pays those who say that they make profit in their business, including people like your local hawker.

I heard somewhere that the respective SG went into agreement with the FG to give them a 3 month window of grace and I think that window from the time the judgment was elapses October or November ending then all LG allocations will go into the LG accounts.

But if for any other reason other than that except they want to say that the amendment of the constitution has to come first concerning the full autonomy of LGC then it's a welcome idea.
Nevertheless it's about time the judiciary starts revisiting certain judicial judgment and make turnarounds.

IfnobeGod20:
On this particular issue, they went to court to swear an affidavit and to also stop INEC conducting by-election to replacing them.

On the issue of certificate. Schools doesn't issue certificate twice. If the one they issue to you is lost or misplaced, the worse that can happen is to ask for statement of result and in the event you cannot go for the statement, you source for affidavit to use in lieu of the above.
Someone like me, I lost my primary school certificate, at the point of documentation of the job I am doing now, they requested for it and I told them I have lost it to inferno when our house built. They were the one that advised me to go for affidavit at the high court, which I am using till date.

Besides, I ask you a critical question but you didn't answer that. I will ask again.
Does one go to court to source for affidavit, for the sake of just doing it? If to the negative, then, every dick and harry will be going to court to ask for affidavit with no purpose for it.
But I know, the content will surely reveal the intent of you doing the affidavit.

That aside, we shall be waiting patiently to hear from the judge on the issue.
I want to believe you know the meaning of affidavit. Take time and read it all over again and again.

It is good you raised the issue of your school certificate getting burnt in fire.
Let's start from there.

An original first school leaving certificate or any other is a true testament of someone's result. Now in the absence of especially the reason you highlighted. You are supposed to go to the primary school board and request for a statement of result (certified copy) and afterwards you'll take it and go to the court and get an affidavit stating your intention and purpose. That affidavit stands as a supporting document to the statement of result(certificate copy) in place of original certificate.

I hope you understand.

So whatever meaning people give to it is all left to them.

Anyways let's wait what the court judge will say if that is before them.

It will be easy for many of us to go get affidavit making claims to properties that don't belong to us just because we have access to them.

Kukutenla:
But the Nigerian constitution never gave LG autonomy neither did it list them as federating units. LGs do not have any role in amendment of the constitution nor in carrying out state functions.
What Tinubu and his fellow journeymen at SC did was to use illegality to cure illegality. Well, like I said then, illegality will come full circle. If the FG really wants the LG to function, they know what to do. But of course, the FG does not want to lose its sweets while its chooking eyes into another's.
That's what bred this. Soludo even tried by codifying it into law. Yaya Bello was in the habit of doing this exact same thing when he was governor without any law.
So you're only complaining now because it is being done officially
I think you are being misled by what the LGA allowed ignorantly to be practiced by the Governors and making the LG depend on the SG.
You need to take time and study all the federal constitution, the State Constitution and the Local Government constitution and see where they have been getting it wrong.
Just because it was never written in the constitution that the LG is autonomous does not make it one. Then of what purpose is it written that it's a third tier government. Or was it also writrn in the constitution that the State government is autonomous.
Common sense makea one to understand it.
It's like the constitution says there are three arms of government, the executive, legislative and judiciary and these three are independent and interdependent depending on their respective functions an dduties to ensure that the system of governance is run smooth. But while they will always say the judiciary and even legislative are independent we all know that is not the case because in Nigeria.
The love for money has always been the root of all evils.

Of what importance of putting in the constitution verbatim and plainly that a governor has immunity if not for ways to evade corruption.
Or is the USA constitution says that the President and Governors have full immunity and will not be subject to investigation till they complete their tenure in office!!!!!huh
Or do we not know that upon taking an oath of office, there is some kind of immunity given one but it's limited and not this scam sham being arranged and share by all of them in Nigeria.
Is it not because of Yaya Bello that some States have gathered together to take the FG to court under the guise that the act bringing EFCC is not done rightly!!!!
The monies these SGs are going to spend in resolving this in court why did they not do same in ensuring that they put up good institutions that will make people be held accountable while in office.
