Supreme Court has already delivered judgement on defection in time past.The lawmakers have lost their seats.
https://citylawyermag.com/rivers-crisis-court-order-not-required-for-defecting-lawmaker-to-lose-seat/

The court you're referring to that the Appeal Court has said they lacked jurisdiction on the issues.
The purported Speaker who declared the seats vacant thought it wise to take the office of CoS!!!!! Don't you think it's absurd?
Why will I as a law maker and as the NUMBER 3 man in the State take another office below the one I already have!!!
Well, whatever is behind this decision i hope it aids his political career.

figment232:
Stop confusing the issues and lets dwell on the affidavit they swore at the FHC... Its indicative that the defected the the APC and as such they have lost their seats The court u were mentioning only ruled on jurisdiction not on the subject matter of their defection

Let's wait till the SC gives their judgment to those who went there. Then the eyes and ears will be very clear afterwards.

A precondition for nonsense accepted by nonsense based on the fear of unknown nonsense coming from non sense.

FreeStuffsNG:
“The CBN shall open and maintain an account earmarked for the purpose of warehousing unclaimed balances in eligible accounts. The account shall be called “Unclaimed Balances Trust Fund (UBTF) Pool Account,” the apex bank said in the document obtained by THE WHISTLER.

For the unclaimed dividend and dormant account balances, the CBN said banks should maintain records of the beneficiaries of the unclaimed balances warehoused in the UBTF Pool Account.


The funds are not permanently taken away from the owners but for keep with the CBN so that banks will not use it for their recapitalisation.

CBN insists that only fresh funds should be used for the bank recapitalisation.

May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

Let the CBN go and use pension funds for such purposes and repay later when it's time for pensioners to collect. Let the FG and CBN put up laws that will encourage politicians and others with stolen public funds to come to their rescue.

Is the IG-P referring to those perpetuated by the security operatives themselves against those they took oath to protect, or is he referring to corruption and financial related crimes perpetuated by political office holders at all levels?

Northern Nigeria is not hiding its hatred for Tinubu at all. Very bold people unlike others...

Three's nothing bold in what they the North are doing. Absolutely nothing bold. They only appeal to themselves, the gullible and simple minded individuals.

If they want to show that they are really bold and courageously let them take it to the forefront of the Boko Haram boys, Fulani herdsmen, bandits, and all those kidnapping little children and girls and women in the North, all those ravaging farm lands in the entire North and displacing indigenes from their homes and farm lands.

PBAT has handicapped them that's why they are speaking because the largese entering the pocket no longer cones. They don't care about the North but about their pockets.

If Benue State can pay the #70k minimum wage then any State saying they can't pay then know that indigenes of that State residing elsewhere ought not to complain about governors who are not from their land.

I need your advice, which job should I go for between these two jobs

One is a government job of 100k
The second one is a private job of 180k

Your advice will be useful

Both are in proximity to my residence.

You did not make mention the type of government work and also private job.



Some years ago, a friend called for a meeting with those if his closer friends and asked this same question.
The government job was in the Nigerian Railway and the private was a sub contractor firm to one of the IOCs. He would basically be like a PA to the main boss.
We all adviced him to go with the subcontractor work based on the fact that if he has an eye for side business or any form of ideal investment then it's a go.
He chose the later and he was able to achieve alot not until his boss kicked the bucket and the another firm was given the contract. He is not doing bad at all till date.

Ijaya123:
You expect a petrol station to pay 70k to their attendants?

I'm sure the POS person will also ask for theirs as well. Certainly not all private operators fall under the category of paying that minimum wage. So we should not be saying what is not actually not possible.
Make I call my friend wey get laundry shop .

Salary earners talk anyhow. They think it’s easy to be an entrepreneur in Nigeria where everything is against you!

An entrepreneur should know what is logically and ideally good to pay their employee given the type of services the business outfit renders and the profit after sales, etc,etc.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2024/07/n70000-minimum-wage-we-cant-pay-unless-organised-private-sector-cries-out/

It seems like this OPS looks like POS that's why they are saying they can't pay. We all know the POS or OPS sector is categorized. I don't know why they are complaining.

Response To My Beloved Senior, Dele Momodu: Nigeria's Economy Is Not Collapsing. Far From It! 



Reno Omokri

Reno Omokri is all talking about what's on paper. Optimistic projections and the rest of it. That's why he say it's not virtually falling. Which he is correct judging by the statistics and figures he shares like PO.

While Dele Momodu is talking about what's on ground that meets the eyes of even the layman, that which affects the ordinary individual. Even people in the villages that farm know that the economy has fallen.
Na through food and purchasing power the ordinary citizen dey take know.

You Drink Garri And Use It For Food Purposes But Did You Know In 1944, Selling Garri Was illegal In Nigeria?

Now let Educate ourselves

The British colonial Government made it illegal for anyone to sell Garri privately, Garri became "Government treasure”

This thread will explain everything

This actually happened during the era of the second World War. As we know the British were suffering at he hand of Germans and they were desperate to win the War, they needed money and resources so they pulled as many as they could get from their colonies, including Nigeria.

They built harbours, roads, Airfields, hospitals, anything to make their exploitation easier. Thousand of Nigerian Men were recruited into the Army to fight in the second World. Even at that, they still needed more.

They imposed some monetary policies and they rationed food so they could have enough to export for their wars. The government was in charge of food distribution and people would have to queue for days to buy Garri.

They wanted to tax market women. Then we had Alimotu Pelewura, a Nigerian woman led a protest to curb this action. British Government were like "British women pay tax, why should Nigerian women be any different" and Pelewura replied she said "All of Nigeria's wealth was being taken to Britain hence the British women could pay tax because they were Rich". She organized the market and told them to boycott sales of Garri to the Govt. This made the Govt and the security agents "declared war"

The Government started arresting those who sold Garri privately but NIGERIANS are very resourceful so the Fa-ya-wo got involved (Fa-ya-wo is what the Yorubas call Smugglers). The Fa-ya-wo would crawl on their bellys(hence their name) to steal Garri from government stores and sell in private. Garri had it own black market. The govt found it very hard to solve this problem, they tried to bribe Halimatu Pelewura to come to their side but she didn't sell her conscience .

So when next you see garri, show some respect oo

Imagine someone who receives salaries and has to be corrected by his colleagues on what he receives. These are people who can't show Nigerians a proof through their payment slip or credit schedule on their bank platforms.

FG and Tinubu government should please tell us how a human can survive with 70k in a month in Nigeria

A federal worker please break it down

House rent

Transportation to work

Feeding

Health

Entertainment

Please I want to see it

If that is what the NLC settles for then all that is needed is for the civil servant to go to work once in a week.

Bayo Onanuga

I wonder if the person who would be paid this by the FG has nothing to do in life and with his life just because he chose to be a civil servant still at this time of economic downfall...

If the NLC & TUC are applauding PBAT for this stipends to be paid as minimum wage then it's better they the NLC & TUC never again talk about workers welfare and strike ever again in. Nigeria. Nonsense and ingredients.

He is saying what every governor and government does if at all they conduct the LGEs. So arresting him will mean you'll have to arrest all governors who have governed in all the States including all the former FCT Ministers.

Hello Nairalanders,

Yesterday the 17th was my birthday.

As for my new age, let me just say that I'm slightly older than Don Jazzy.

Please send me your kind words and good wishes!

Cheers!

Happy Birthday
Let the blessings of God rest upon you at all times....In Jesus mighty name, Amen.

helinues:
Purely own goal.

Reelection would be so easy. That must be a proxy request from the state governors.

Can the LG oversight themselves?

You seem to not read the article.
It's a Federal Agency vested with the powers to conduct the LGEs in the 774 LGAs.

You need to find a copy of the amended constitution for LG autonomy.

fergie001:
The annual policy meeting is held to authorise the commencement of admission into tertiary institutions in the country and adopt certain admission benchmarks.

The meeting is chaired by the Education Minister, Professor Tahir Mamman




Is it not in this same country that people in the North can use 50 as score yobgain admission into a federal colleges while in the South you're required to score 200 and above and it's this same people from the Northern region wants to govern those with higher score.






Deborah Tolu-Kolawole



JAMB had in 2017 introduced the Central Admissions Processing System where all tertiary institutions upload the admission status of candidates offered admission in the institutions.

CAPS has centralised and automated admission processes between candidates and their chosen tertiary institutions.

What would you expect from someone from the Northern region!!??

If the FG can't pay #150k minimum then let them also partake in the minimum wage they propose after all there's nothing that important that they offer Nigeria.
If they offer something good since 1999 the nation would have been better placed like the UAE and Malaysia in terms of economy and development.

The suspension is null and void since the 27lawmakers had lost their seats due to defection

(1) They are yet to show proof of the defection in a court of law?
(2) The FHC has already said the SHC lacks jurisdiction and thereby all that was pronounced is null and void.


There are many sides to defection but I would not rather say on that since that aspect was never brought up in thr court.

the Hausa northerner whose mind Ndume is speaking don't come to the Internet to support comments but they determine who becomes your president.Tinubu is surely a one term president

It's all a play.
Whether the North likes it or not the South will do their 2 terms.
If the North decides to tinker with it then they have started what can't be undone.
We have gone beyond party lines and ideologies without rules.

Nigeria is a joke. You don't want to give the governors the allocations but the same governors are the ones to choose who will get the allocations from you. Are you not funny?

Na still the governors go put their puppets in the positions. No be the rulling party in each state go win most of the seats?

The autonomy is just for the collection of the allocations, not for the spending of the allocations. Each parish will still pay tithes to the headquarter.

I support local government autonomy. But the new policy will not achieve the autonomy. Remember that the elections will be conducted by state INEC, not the main INEC. With this, governors will make their puppets LGA chairmen and decide how those chairmen spend the federal allocations.

If you think the chairmen can decide to disobey the governors, think of how many LGA chairmen that are clean enough to boldly and successfully disobey their political godfathers. Remember that the puppets selected as LGA chairmen are the ones with rotten profiles that can be used to blackmail and silence those chairmen when those chairmen prove stubborn.

Do you not know that INEC will be mandated soon to conduct LGC electionsand that all State Electoral Commissions will be abolished....

sagitariusbaby:
there is difference here please. He simply re-established second class thrones who would work under and take instructions from the Emir of Kano Sanusi. It's a clever way to fix the traditional institutuon crisis brewing there since.

Your own kind of clever!!!!! The kind of clever people populating NL who will never admit absurd mistakes.
A teacher who thinks he knows tells a pupil that the solution he(pupil) provided is not the right process. But after many days of giving the pupil a bad name came up with the same sokution the pupil gave and just circled his final answer with QED written at it's corner. So much for clever intelligence. Those are the kind of clever people we have in governance. I'm sure the former governor will be laughing in his bed and rolling.

Anything that has to do with the Niger Delta/Southern region they want to conquer with brutal force because it's the hen that lays the golden egg to get oil revenue but when it comes to the Fulani/Northern region they don't do anything because they can't go with brutal force with their kits and kins.

It's just a matter of time.

He didn't for see the outcome of their initial plan of bringing Sanusi and cancelling the now reinstated Emirates. He didn't know there was going to be a federal might behind Ado Bayero. He did all he could and it's obvious now he's helpless. I strongly believe this is one of the conditions given to him. For me, if you don't like Bayero, remove him without reverting to thr old that you are now going back and forth. We wait to see if Ado Bayero will now be left in the cold.

All what he is doing is just to save face. It has rubbed oil on himself over and over again.
He can't leave Ado Bayero in the cold. There was actually no need to classifying emirs into second class and all the rest. They all know their places. I just pity SLS in all of this. It just shows how unintelligent men who were thought intelligent are.

The U.S. Secret Service have already confirmed that it was flying BROKEN GLASS that hit Donald Trump and NOT a bullet! It's been reported in all major U.S. and global news networks.

It has become very clear to me that the boy who was acting as a lone wolf probably NEVER intended to kill Donald but only wanted tobshoot originally into the crowd and cause chaos at the Trump rally. If he wanted to kill Donald Trump, he would have easily done it from that rooftop.

Interesting, so if Trump was wounded by a flying broken glass, please where did that broken glass come from and how come Trump was the only one hit by a shrad of broken glass and another was killed by a bullet?
Where did the shrad of broken glass come from?
