fvck you and your imperialists data! This is timesup and your time is up. My dream is to slap the shiit outta every single Nigerian spreading bullshit and falsehood about this great country. Nigeria is crime free. The United States is the murder capital of the world, the rape capital of the world, the robbery capital of the world, the shithole capital of the world, the junkie/druggie capital of the world. There are more people dying in America annually that Nigeria making impetialist life expectancy data bullshit. America is a jungle, only monkeys should dwell there

[/s]

Lol you must be trolling. The data was sourced in cooperation with Nigeria Bureau of Statistics. South Africa is the unofficial rape capital. Check their stats.

Hyperchi:
Leave that mumu wa post this topic.

It shocking how dumb threads get so much traction. It's clearly untrue nigeria is safer. There's no per capita data to prove that. The UN and NBS survey already show crime is under reported.

Why is it so hard for you to publish per capita stats? Is it because your government doesn't publish it's crime stats? The United States is 5 per 100k. Nigeria had murder rate of 9.85 in 2015 according UN stats. Lol did nigeria some how drop by half with 5 years. Even that's an under estimation.

Data on homicides, in particular, in Africa is patchy and diverging. In Nigeria official statistics are hard to come by. In 2004 the World Health Organization reported the homicide rate in Nigeria at 5.4 per 100.000 inhabitants. Data provided by the Nigeria Police Force indicate that there were 2,712 and 2,861 homicides in 2012 and 2013, respectively. However, according to the Federal Ministry of Justice, these data are incomplete since not all States appear to maintain statistics or report on them on a regular and reliable basis. A report published recently by the National Bureau of Statistics put the number of "murders" in 2017 at 3,219. An alternative source is provided by the World Health Organization (WHO) who estimated in 2014 17,059 victims of homicide. In 2017, the National Bureau of Statistics published prison statistics indicating that from 2013 to 2016 an average of 8,264 per year, were imprisoned for allegedly committing homicide.

To find out more about homicides in Nigeria, UNODC, in partnership with the National Bureau of Statistics of Nigeria, in 2016 conducted a survey covering more than 33,000 households across all 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria. The results of the survey provide strong evidence that the level of lethal violence in Nigeria could be significantly higher than reported to the authorities or estimated based on public health data. On the basis of the survey sample, the annual homicide rate of Nigeria in the period 2013-2016 was estimated at 34 per 100,000 population, corresponding to around 64,000 victims of intentional homicide annually with significant variations across the six geopolitical zones. The total homicide rate was estimated to be the highest in the North-East: 79 per 100,000 population and North-Central: 65 per 100.000. With an estimated 4.4 victims of homicide per 100.000 inhabitants, the homicide rate was the lowest in the South-West.

What you are proposing will involve ballot boxes right? Nigerians shoot in councilorship elections. We start shooting sef before election materials arrive. So if whatever you are proposing involves voting via ballot, expect what is obtainable now. If our elections have always been peaceful, would have been a different thing all together. Plus, with electronic voting, implementing what you stated wont take much time and funds again.

It sounds like your problem is securing the facility. The same people will just shoot up regardless as you put it. The cost is reduced in staff counting votes. You just have to buy the Electronic Voter Machines. Printing more paper isn't that expensive. You'll just deal with potential hacking and transmitting data over phone and secured network.

State and local governments already have the means to conduct ballot measures. In respect to federalism these processes should be conducted and regulated at the local level.

Again these measures measures are intended for state and local governments. If you feel you need this in particular for your locality go ahead. States electoral commission already conduct local elections. It would behoove you start your campaign there for the next election cycle.

helinues:
Are you a mind reader? So na sin if person waka pass a thread?

If I was a mind reader I wouldn't ask you questions. I didnt say they're actions are evil just funny. Again I ask what's wrong with the proposal? It seems you had nothing of substance to say helinues. Lol this isn't surprising.

sapientia:
Mature solution that will take us donkey years.

Let them give us electronic voting first.

Because they will kill themselves in these your solution without electronic voting.

I dont think electronic voting is necessary for this process to work. I do agree it would take years to implement and probably not practice in all the states. Anyway you should lobby for electronic voting locally then it will spread nationwide after it proven itself.

What do you mean by kill themselves?

helinues:
Nigerians are used to suffering and smiling... The revolution part is not what can never happened in Nigeria... Chop make I chop technique won't let us reason that way..

helinues:

You dont like or want the solution proposed? If Nigerian have the option of improving their society themselves they'll do so. This wouldn't require a revolution...

Ps: it's funny how dumb threads get traction.

The only issue might be the courts. There's nothing in the constitution forbidding these measures from what I skimmed. A governor might sue because popular votes would restrict veto power.

Personally I dont think a bloody revolution is required. I understand the sentiment but the chaos of revolution should be avoided. Simple reforms in direct democracy would do wonders in my opinion. The recall process has to in the constitution should ne amended to make it easier to initiate. Ballot measures at the state and local level offer the solution.

I agree it's best to be prepared. I'll try stock up asap. M95 mask. Water, and food. If nothing comes of this just consume your supplies.

These measures would go a long way in restraining the government. The lapdog state assembly men would essentially be removed from the process. Do do guys want these laws? If so what laws would you passed their ballot measures?

I would like a veto referendum on governor pensions in Akwa Ibom. They earn obscene amount of money for nothing. It would be great initiatives bills limiting public servant pay and emoluments spending. Then bill on environmental clean up in oil producing communities.

Nigeria should expand direct democracy by introducing ballot measures. State and local can achieve this by adding passing laws granting initiatives and referendums. An initiative is the method by which voters propose bills that the legislature is compelled to consider. A referendum is the method that allows citizens to vote on proposed laws printed on their ballot. Nigeria already practices directed democracy by having a recall process for state and federal legislators. Increasing direct democracy will improve the level of accountability to electorate, control and participation by the citizens.

Ballot measure laws should be determined by local and state government unlike the current recall laws. State independent electoral commissions can be tasked with the responsibility of holding these elections. Local government ballot measures Should conversely be handled by that tier of government. The financial capacity already exist to handle this responsibility. Ballot measure should only require 5% of registered voter signatures to initiate instead 50 required by recall process. All ballot measures passed must naturally be veto proof.

The ballot initiative and referendum process can direct or indirect. Direct initiatives is the process by which citizens bypass their legislature to place proposed statutes directly on the ballot for voter approval. The process is accomplished by collecting the necessary number of signatures. Indirect initiative must go to the legislature first to give lawmakers a chance to take action before the proposal on the ballot. Then legislature could have the options of passing law, doing nothing leaving it up the people, or propose a new law addressing the same subject as citizen initiated measures allowing voters to pick what version the prefer. Legislative referendum is a process in which legislators propose statues on the ballot.

Other types of ballot measures can be implemented to guide public policy. Advisory referendums can be used to gauge public support for certain policies. These types of referendums are non-biding so they don’t affect existing law. Veto referendum is the the process by which citizens can uphold or repeal specific statues passed by the legislature. The veto referendum could be used to reign in emoluments or repeal governor pensions.

Implementing more forms of direct democracy through ballot measures strengthens popular sovereignty. State and local governments already have the means to conduct ballot measures. In respect to federalism these processes should be conducted and regulated at the local level. The government derives its power from the people so it is incumbent on the representatives to obey.

Eat more pork. Have you called to see if anyone mails frozen meat?

Bump

These political parties and agencies are pathetic. Why us it so hard to do a background check on these guys? There's tons of people earned their certificates but they nominate crooks. Until people start going to jail they wont quit.

LegendHero:
There was a girl I chatted with on Facebook, she is from Kaduna and she was the first northerner I’ll ever chat with online. When I asked her tribe, she was scared to tell me she was Fulani. This is the exact words she said “Will you stop talking to me if I tell you I’m Fulani”?

Those words broke my heart and I understood the magnitude of the mental pressure on those guys and if Arrewa is trying to at least give them a form of pride, I think we should just let them be.

It's pretty messed up collectively dislike certain groups. It ok to notice patterns and trends among groups but individual relationships should be case by case. Individuals arent their groups for better or worse. The OP is allowed to be proud but he can't expect people not react to false statements.

Arrewa:
then they're probably lying to you... They fear that you might report them to immigration officers...

We have them here in the north too... They speak Hausa and are generally Muslims...

We the real Hausafulanis can easily identify cos of the version of the Hausa they speak and how they generally behave and dress... But thy guys can't identify them... You will just call them abboki, mallam, ndi ugwu

You're admitting northers condone criminality by not reporting them. Im not surprised really.

Arrewa:
Stop deceiving yourself with fake analysis...

The north is by far richer than any region in Nigeria...
Northern region more developed than any region in Nigeria!! That's the fact...

Stop consoling yourself with fake analysis that the north is poor... They're are busy counting Nigerien migrants as part of Northern Nigeria...
The north is officially an oil producing region in Nigeria...

Only north has oil, uranium,Gold, diamond,over 74 million hectare of arable land, the north have discovered oil Gongola bauchi state and recently one billion barrel of crude oil discovered in single well...

Northern Nigeria have alot of untapped resources...

Stop hating and hold your selfish politicians accountable... Persuade them to develop your region

There's nothing fake about the analysis. It's the same stats cited by the every tier of government. Even when you look at GDP stats the north is behind the south general. The complete list wont be released till October but the facts are evident...

Kano with double the population of most the states above it has a smaller GDP. This is a telling stat line.

Lol just remembered this thread. Im wondering is there anything stopping any state from implementing this idea. It seems the tiny sample size I have are cool with being judged by their peers instead of the judge. It's weird jury trial never made its way into Nigeria inspite of UK colonial history.

Despite his advertised good intentions, Gov. Zulum must realize that foreign affairs relation is an exclusive purview of the FGN. More so, when it concerns hostile neighbours whose aims and objectives in Nigeria’s war against terrorism is not defined and held suspect.

Did he break the rule by having a talks with them? Nigeria has always been lax on this rule. Foreign diplomats visit state houses to have courtesy visits and the FGN never cared. It seems as long he doesn't sign treaty they dont care.

ChoCho54:
The last paragraph of your post was not necessary and unlike you.

It appears you have been missing out on the fights and is now ready to launch.

Be careful what you wish for.

Lol clown what are you rambling about. I guess you're one broke boys that dont know what he said either. If you need a transcript just ask.

Only pathetic looter apologist pretend Abacha wasnt a dirty money launderer.

Hhansome:
Totally disagree with you sir.

You disagree with all his arguments? I only disagree on how he wants the state police structured. The state assemblies should dontheir jobs and regulate that aspect. Everyone's concerns revolve around finances and tyranny. The latter being consequential.

You get what you pay for it's thst simple. How much do those hostels cost per term?

Lol when are going to resubmit bill to alter constitution? Its clear decentralizing policing is the ultimate solution. Prisons also have to be decentralized.

Ps: You can tell most people commenting are too broke to watch video. They're foolishly condemning his opinions without knowing his arguements.

Bump

This guy has cognitive dissonance. It shouldn't be condemned but you want to reform it. Sanusi is right arrest the clowns subjecting their kids to foolish practice.

The tenant better crack his skull. That's your wife man.

Lol the account might be depleted before he leaves office. Oh well elections have consequences. The Federal government refused to listen when courts and nass said it was illegal account. Now they've blown through most of money with little to show for it.

"I can spend 100 years saying that it is wrong and un-Islamic for a man to beat his wife

Whatever you say Emir.

Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand.

Surah An-Nisa [4:34]

Do not beat Allah's handmaidens, but when Umar came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: Women have become emboldened towards their husbands, he (the Prophet) gave permission to beat them. Then many women came round the family of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) complaining against their husbands. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Many women have gone round Muhammad's family complaining against their husbands. They are not the best among you.

Sunan Abu Dawud / Hadith 2146

"Every day, wives are complaining about their husbands who claim their rights but abandon their responsibilities of marriage, women being divorced with their husbands not taking care of the children and those children ending up on the streets, drugs, political thuggery, violent extremism," he said.

Dont these woman have sharia or regular courts as recourse? Lol go sue for some alimony. If you married a bum that was your first mistake. Having his baby was 2nd.
