TheElites19s: What the court meant is that Martins Amaewhule is still the speaker pending still next week when the court will give the final judgement
Appeal Court as replied on the ruling of State high Court that gave judgement some days ago
"The Court of Appeal however refused to grant the prayer for stay of execution and setting aside the interim order of the Lower Court as there is a presumption of correctness of an order of a Court. It held that granting same would be tantamount to determining the appeal at this stage. The Court went on to order that the present status quo should be maintained pending the hearing of the Appeal"
If your interpretation of that which the Appeal Court pronounced is in order, does that mean all the bills passed by Martins Amaewhuleas Speaker still stands and the other person standing as same is illegitimate given this ruling till June 20th when the actual judgement will be given.
Now if you say Martins Amaewhule remains the Speaker Status Quo that also means the incumbent LGC chairmen will remain in office according to the law passed by Speaker Martins Amaewhule?
greggng: You have lost touch with reality and I doubt if you know anything about the traditional culture if kano. You need to be schooled in the traditional culture of kano. When an emir is dethrone ..he goes into exile . Sanusi demonstrated all this.. Everyone knows how Sanusi left the state with the help of his friend wike who is dead now . The governor is doing everything right while people like you without the knowledge if how dethroned of emir is done are causing problems in kano.
He does not go into exile based on self except he chooses to if where was provided for him does not fit him. Maybe you need to go back in time and read. Sanusi 1 and Sanusi 2 were banished to a specific State, LGA, town, community. Its in the history books with some personal staffs. Such was done in the case of Ado.
adanny01: I am not a lawyer and do not know the traditional laws in-depth. However, I know that tradionally every deposed Emir is banished to a certain land. Emir Sanusi was banished, however, he went to court and got a judgement that allowed him move freely as a right of every Nigerian at this time and age.
It's a good thing the Kano government didn't banish him or the other Emirs knowing that a precedence has been set.
What Bayero did is return to Kano which is his right, but going to a palace that officially belongs to the government and then say you are still the Emir, that's even disrespect to the tradition that has given him the highest stool he sat on.
Personally, I am of the opinion Bayero threw all the respect he had as an Emir. He has publicly incited crisis, apart from living in a property that belongs to the state that gave you 48hrs to leave. Even if he eventually wins the battle, he doesn't have the character of a revered Emir and has lost reverence.
Sanusi left and still has respect despite all the dark things he has in his cupboard.
The arrest was ordered when Bayero went to the mini palace and declared he is still Emir.
His dethroning is also banishing him because he was out of Kano for a function and the SG within it's powers ensured he did not return to Kano. Till date, the SG did not make mention of any place where he would relocate to which is out of place considering those who were dethroned before him. So where do you expect him to put his bed? So if his character is now tarnished because he chose a smaller palace to reside within Kano in the town/village called Nassarawa then so be it. The case he took to the court is not even about the stool but his rights been taken away from him.
sulaak: How much loot has been recovered ...Falana is always short on details.
Nigeria needs to prioritise infrastructure, especially electricity, road and railway.
That's basically what they have been doing and giving priority the way they deem fit. Other than that there's absolutely nothing the government offers the people.
So it's better the government at all levels do the right thing instead of making the man at the bottom who receives a meagre wage like he is completely nothing.
All the people ask is a wage that is commiserate with the realities of the economic conditions on ground initiated by the FG arising to such ripple effects.
Nigeria is not like the UK or USA where one is paid by the hour cause if that be so many persons would do multiple jobs and earn the corresponding wage for such work.
Blitzking: Not sensible..you can't pay minimum wage with a money that is fixed minimum wage should be paid based on productivity...not just money sharing..an organisation generating 2 billion per month can't be paying 5 billion naira per month even though na govt own the company.if its to downsize do it. Enough of wastages..
What is the productivity of the legislooters? What is the productivity of the president? What is the productivity of the governors?
greggng: Some of us sometimes pretend to be ignorant of what is happening in this country . When same law was amended to enable gaduje regime remove a sitting emir without any crime ...many if you said nothing. Sanusi accepted his fate and moved on for peace to reign . A new govt is in place to correct the mistake of gaduje by following due process so as to bring about lasting peace in kano ...now everyone is blaming the govt for cooing the right thing? You re asking what crime did bayero committed ? Well chieftaincy matters are exclusive right of the state House of assembly. The state assembly has amended there laws which enable Sanusi to be reinstated . This is justice . Anyone going against it should be arrested ..isa way of undemanding the authority of the governor who is the person in charge of the state in question .Bayero cannot be bigger than the state . He should accept his fate and move on just like Sanusi did. If everyone devife not to obey state laws will there be democracy ...Those backing bayero is the problem here .
You are the one who is the problem. We are all following the issue right from the grand father's time. So we understand the roles everyone is playing right from the time of Kwankaso till date. The question is "why would the governor arrest the one he has dethroned"? Why would the governor prevent the one he has dethroned entry into the State? What is the offence? Since when is dethroning someone now a criminal offence against the one dethroned? You cannot arrest anyone based on presumptive offense.
These are those who know it's in the best interest of the country immediately purchase an urgent new aircraft for the President and Vice President. But it's not in the interest of the nation to pay a living minimum wage to the common man.
Ofodirinwa: It is doomed forever. There's no logical reason for someone to live in or do business there other than being a native. They land is low value and infertile, weather is bad, worst pollution in w/Africa, high poverty, high illiteracy, kidnapping, etc
I'm sure all you wrote is what you read from Google like Gringory.
Metrofox: You are a big full .. the Igbos will not want to join but for the Yorubas in Kwara you are 100% sure they will want to join south west. Stupid people
Congratulations.. Congratulations, you are wisdom personified.
Hungry: Anyone who still desires to eat food, food crops, fruits and any food supplements to aid the physical growth and nourishment of the body. Anyone who desires to add or make an increase of what he lacks or what he already has for keeps for future use.
Anyone who is alive and so desires to remain alife.
The World Bank and her sister IMF does not need to tell us. We are well aware that this CBN governor will most likely be worse than the previous. They only know economics written on paper. They can't translate it into reality. Let him continue with his trial and error approach. E still good say it will be written as an achievement to have risen to become governor of a nation's central bank.
senatordave1: Hon. Benjamin Obaseki, brother of Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki, has resigned his membership in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing internal turmoil and a disconnect between the party leadership and its members.
In a resignation letter to the Oredo local government chairman of the party, Benjamin highlighted the crumbling state of the PDP under its current leadership.
He said, "I am convinced it is time for me to leave for my growth as the leadership of the party has lost touch with its members and hence become insensitive to my plight," pointing fingers at the top brass, including his own brother, the governor.
Blaming the dire state of the party and lamenting the intense infighting at the state level, he added, "It is a pity that the infighting that has engulfed the party at the state level will consume the party, and I do not intend to be consumed alongside."
He warned that the party was on the brink of self-destruction as he expressed deep regret ove
Letters of resignation from party members in Edo State from those who are of the PDP. No be TikTok and twitter resignation oOoOO.
Josephkabila12: what do you mean by rule for ever, with regional government your region can be better
That is not a criteria. If States like Lagos, Kano, Kaduna, Rivers , Ogun, Kwara, Kogi, Taraba, Abia, Enugu and even the FCT is still not better as single units, is it when they are collapsed bringing about 5-7 States into regions that it will be more better?

When we compare ourselves to those in the USA and UK, we come back with our senses and procure Keke and grinding machines for our own.
You proposed that Yoruba speaking part of Kwara and Kogi, and even some part of Delta and Edo state be merged with south west to form Western region.
But in the case of south east, you didn't propose that the Igbo speaking part of Rivers, Delta, Benue, Kogi, Cross River, etc be merged together to form South Eastern region, rather to show your true colour of hatred, you are proposing that the Ohaji/Egbema region, one of the oil producing LGAs in southern imo state be removed from South East to form part of Southern/Niger Delta region. Is it not shameless daylight witchcraft?
I'm sure down along the writeup, he made mention of optional and what deems fit for people in those areas, where they would want to belong to. Nevertheless, it's only a proposal a d nothing more. The ibo speaking people in some(all) of the Southern States will not want to join the core Eastern States, so let's not fret about it.
Anyways it's a good start but to be able to achieve that a confab will have to be formed. But we don't need such now. It would be easier and better if all the States be completely and fully autonomous with them having full control of their resources or 90% control of their resources. There should be creation of more LGA and RCDA depending on each State's peculiarity. Whatever pattern we take there should be utmost decentralization of power. States who share the same ideologies though tribe and tongues may differ can come together to grow their economy by putting their collective resources together and sharing of resultant IGR.
Kukutente23: Lol. Nigerians and building castles in the air with empty wishes underneath. How many govs have you kicked out through elections? So you think LG will have full autonomy and the chairmen will turn true servants if the people? How many LG chairs are freely and transparently elected to start with?
Everything starts with a process. It all started with PDP, now it's APC. It may very well be another party in no distant time. Likewise same with the LGA which is even minute. There are areas where they may find it difficult, there are areas strong concessions will have to be agreed upon and upheld. It may be little, but we will get there till the appointed time for total separation and complete division of the country called Nigeria into smaller units like Ukraine and Haiti.
It seems like governors from Anambra State are pathetic with lies. Just as the governor is saying he is not receiving salary, I hope those he appointed as aides do not receive as well. I hope he is not been fed by the States' monies and all his overseas travels for whatsoever reason is not on the States funds.......
Zxcvbnmghtr: Local Government Autonomy will be granted by the Supreme Court, there is no doubt about that. There is also no doubt that Nigerians will still complain about their Local Government Chairman afterwards because Nigerians will always complain about EVERYTHING!!!
We all await the Supreme Court judgment to be in favour of the FG. On this the FG is fully reprrsenting the common man. When full autonomy is granted then let the LG chairman behave like the governors and see themselves been kicked out through the next elections. The democratic process will take some time, one day at a time.
Gbadugbakun: You went out with your friend to the bar, you ordered for drinks, but before they brought the drinks, you went out to make a call. When you came back, your friend has already opened it for you and even poured it in the glass.
You asked him why he did that, he said the waiter wanted to use the opener for another customer so he said let him kuku open it for you.
You move the drink one side and order for another drink. Why you guys finished drinking, you paid for the drink he opened which you didn't drink along with the ones you drank.
When you get home you receive a WhatsApp from this supposed friend asking you what you see him as, that are you trying to say he was trying to poison you? You try to reply him but he has already blocked you on Whatsapp. You try to call him but it's showing busy meaning he has blocked your number as well.
Did I do something wrong. Why would you open a drink and pour it out for someone when he didn't ask you to do so?
This is not the first time I'm coming across this here on NL. That person is a real suspect and wants to poison his friend. Even if your friend tells you to open the bottle of beer for him, you should not do such in his absence but when you go ahead to pour it into the glass, it already shows your level of seriousness to poison your friend through drinks.
LegendHero: At the banquet dinner tonight, President Tinubu spoke about the stumble that happened this morning.
He said “ I did my Dobale this morning as a Yoruba boy for Democracy Day”.
Baba is even joking with it. Below is his exact statement.
“Early this morning, I had a swagger and it’s on the social media. They are confused whether I was doing Buga or doing Babaringa. But it is the day to celebrate democracy while doing dobale (prostrating) for the day as a traditional Yoruba boy, I did my dobale.”
Believe it all at your own peril and demise. So it's this #2500 that is been stolen by some States Governors that after 8 years the EFFC and others are going after them for fraud and stealing the States money. Soludo did not include the monies received as security vote, that is not part of FAAC or IGR. You'll hardly come across any governor who doesn't tell lies especially when it involves defending the undefendable and making the unbelievable become believable.
