Very good gesture by the Prof. More of this NGO-partnered medical outreach are needed to compliment govt healthcare service.

IamANigerianMan:
Why was he represented by the minister of state for FCT? Don't just googled and type anything you want... FCT is a state and the minister is a member of council of state

Lol.. Don't be ridiculous! Where in our constitution is the FCT a state? Stop tying nonsense pls

callmeDDD:
This people will just be creating news on their heads. Wike called past leaders not to attend the so called council of state meetings as how na? 😆

Lol.. e funny you too bah! 😂

Very incredible and laughable story

Exactly what I stated on similar rebuttal post, even at that one ignorant fellow was still arguing FCT Min is part of the council. I just shook my head.

This Sahara story na really bear palour gist.. 😂

Af0nja2:
Is Wike (as Minister of the FTC) a member of the Council of State? No

Only AG and Minister of Justice is the only minister that is a member of the council. Wike, though administers FCT, is not a governor of a state, so is not a member.

Members of CoS are as follows:

Good job.. Kudos to Dangote

SenatorCharles1:
I think you're far lost in ignorance. To help you, I even sent you a link indicating previous meetings have always had the FCT minister in attendance and you're still exposing your ignorance because you feel you owe Wike the duty of online defense

Lol. I no owe/send/follow any politician bro. I'm just a business man

What I'm saying is follow the Constitution!

An FCT minister attending may be an OUTLIER, not Constitutional.. He may be a ceremonial attendee.

Have a nice day

Oga, I follow the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, not "Google".

Was it not on same "google news" that Seyi Tinubu once attended meeting at the Council chamber, until he was "barred" as he's not constitionally eligible to be present in such meeting... So because an FCT Minister once attended, means he's constitutionally eligible to be a member?

Again, Don't ignorantly try to change narratives, follow the Constitution!

Third Schedule. Part 1. B of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), provides that the Council of State shall comprise the following persons:
1. President, who shall be the Chairman;
2. Vice-President, who shall be the Deputy Chairman;
3. All former Presidents of the Federation and all former Heads of the Government of the Federation;
4. All former Chief Justices of Nigeria;
5. President of the Senate;
6. Speaker of the House of Representatives;
7. All the Governors of the states of the Federation; and
8. Attorney-General of the Federation.

SenatorCharles1:
You're the one exposing your ignorance.

Google it if you can. In the past, FCT Ministers have always been attending Council of State meetings including the last one presided ove by Tinubu with the late President Buhari in attendance.

SenatorCharles1:
The FCT is regarded as a state in the federation per say so if governors of the 36 states are present, the FCT minister answers present there too

Just see this ignorant fellow!

After a proper info/clarification from a govt source rightly quoting the Constitution, you're still trying to change to suit your screwed narrative. SMH!

Good clarification. I was wondering as well when a minister now suddenly became Council of State member

Indeed Disinformation is a big problem in this country.. The Purveyors have noticed majority of Nigerians esp. on Social media are simply UNEDUCATED.

NOETHNICITY:
The APC is clearly a much more organized party than the others. The speed with which they acted to dissolve the Enugu State executive is truly impressive. I watched the video and was astonished by the level of hostility expressed by the state chairman. Well done, APC — a brilliant move.

Very true.. other parties are just playing

advanceDNA:
Wetin u mean by "are from Cameroonians" ??
Guy...Please stop that rough play now now

Lol.. typo bro.. corrected. Tnx

Wow.. such a gentleman. Rest in peace sir.

Welcome development. Our Ports need to be upgraded to meet intl standards and cater for larger goods

Just to put down state No. people just dey "dribble" themselve.. Kai! fake & coward people. 😂

Emperordynasty:
Proudly 12, Edo state forever

Yes o my owhiaba.. Proudly Edo.. No. 12 👍

Very welcome development. Police need top notch training to carry out effective security

Wetin oga Paul still dey find for president @ 92yrs.. this is most unfortunate!

Its such a shame, cos some of my good friends (from overseas) are from Cameroun.

KennethOkonkwo:
The political class no even send Peter OBI and his people over there


Na only on social media like nairaland.com them go dey make noise

Lol.. Social media noisemakers 😂

Very welcome development. Fully supported!

Innocent and patriotic Nigerians suffer harassment in airports, visa denials, and constant suspicion simply because of the actions of a few.

Exactly! Innocent folks like myself have been embarrassed at foreign airports just cos of my green passport.. Such a shame!

Truly said gov. Soludo

Nackzy:
With the rate of tribalism on nairaland and twitter there's no one Nigeria and there ll never be

Lol. No let social media deceive you o. Its outside you'll know. My friends and business partners are from all over the country!

Truly one Nigeria!

This is really serious o..

Fantastic development by LASG. Great job

Very intelligent clarification on the rejection. I support this.

Lithiumite:
When you have a president that knows the game of finance this is what you get.....hate him or love him,tinubu is a guru in finance and accounting!! This is the first time Nigeria has a president who fought for the seat and won.

Gbam! The man knows his onions

Good luck to mr Mbah, my favorite SE govenor.👍

seunmsg:
Goodluck and Tinubu one on one? It will be a complete massacre. GEJ won’t get 30% of total vote cast You guys joke too much on this forum.

Spot on! Honestly I don't know who is pushing my SS brother GEJ to run again.. after over 11/12years! Same people that pushed you out is same angling you to run..

As you rightly stated if he tries to run, it'll be complete massacre. Politics have rapidly evolved from 2015 till now.. it's now very strategic!

Bosman17:
Including Deloitte, a big 4 accounting firm not to talk of an exalted position like Treasurer at Mobil unlimited

Don't mind all these ignorant and uneducated fellows all over social media.

Elusive001:
Bros many peeps have worked with major companies with forged certificates. It is never new.

Why would the release of his school records cause severe and irreparable damage to him? Even those with 3rd class and pass do not hide their records. Why is he fighting tooth, nail and spending millions for his records not to be released? Why does your god have different certificates?

Your first paragraph na big lie.. we’re not kids here bro. I worked abroad for years so I know what I’m saying. You can’t work with a big multinational company with fake credentials. They scrutinise very well with lots of background checks.

For the 2nd paragraph, don’t be naive bro.. that’s all politics!

Tinibu a Nigerian/foreigner that worked in MOBIL and other foreign corporations for years can never work with fake what? Stop this joke pls

Good action.. by the way Power has really improved and stabilized

zero8zero:
Wailers above are saying the legacy debts in the power sector that has long bedeviled the sector since its privatization should be left uncleared. When it comes to wailing, just leave it to wailers, but when it comes to understanding, it is zero.

Lol.. i thought i was the only one that noticed the ignorant comments..

Day169:
I think that the guy who came on Channels Tv to defend him tonight has made a big fool of himself.

Lol 😂 I tell you.. such a big fool of himself… my wife & I were just laughing at him trying to defend rubbish

Very good

Finquas:
Nawa o... so why the grand standing all this while The drama was just unnecessary

Honestly I just tire o.. caused so much embarrassment

Very goodnews.

Moroccoguy:
Tinubu was able to prove his certificate saga since 2003 and it was cleared and confirmed by the Chicago University themselves.

Don’t mind those ignorant and mischievous fellows shouting “fake” certificate..

Elusive001:
Which thumbs up?
Are his own certificates genuine?
If no, why not him resign?

Lol.. you guys are so naive and ignorant.

No Intl top tier Corporation will ever employ you with a “forged/fake” credentials. Not to talk of MOBIL one of the world’s largest Oil companies.

They RUN MASSIVE BACKGROUND CHECKS on their applicants & employees.. academic, security, health, etc.

Be informed!
