You can't rule with propaganda!

You removed subsidy, instead stopping there, you devalued the naira which made subsidy removal counterproductive.

Now inspite of the resultant hardship, you're paying more subsidy making Nigerians suffer for nothing

Max24:
If fuel ought to be #1500 and we are buying for #650 why then are you still castigating Tinubu for paying part subsidy? Many of you expect fuel to sell for old price of Jonathan. So do you expect him to absorb the whole subsidy and take fuel back to #200 ? Seems you Obidients are confused like your master. Btw, Obi also promised to remove subsidy on day 1 if he won. So, why the hatred on Tinubu alone? Is it because your kinsman lost to Tinubu ?

Uselessness

celestineteryim:
obituary is an enemy of Nigeria any news about the development of this country you wouldn't hear his reaction but if happen to be negative News now he will carry that his useless 🐸 frog voice to talk ,he can't react to this good news because he's among governors who embezzle local government funds ,he didn't conduct local government election throughout his tenure as governor but his zombies supporters still praise him

I'm happy Tinubu is failing woefully

What is this? Why call Obi on everything?

Ronu rest!

helinues:
Abi, if out of 8 years as a governor and you conducted LG election only on your last year which was even forced by court orders, automatically Peter Obi would have rejected the supremes Court decision about LG autonomy.

You guys will regret this local govt autonomy. Watch and see

Jonjam269:
You meant your serial party defector and Pandora fraudster? Who cares what your fake messiah says or not.
Hope everything is well with you? You have been wailing from thread to thread immediately Supreme Court pronunciation on local government autonomy. Obirodent miscreant.

We told you about the cosmetics of Buhari, you said we were wailing but now saying Buhari handed a dead economy to Tinubu.

You guys are just too ignorant

Jonjam269:
Your calling is to wail and peddle falsehood on social media no meaningful contribution from you., continuing to do what you know how to do best, wail, grunt like pi. g, gnash your teeth like loser and peddle falsehood.

If you're not ready to follow the 1999 constitution, lets do another one cos the constitution guarantees the right to vote and be voted for anywhere in Nigeria

yommen:
He didn't say you can't live or do your thing there. What he is saying is you still have to understand that Lagos is traditional home of some people just like Ogun, Oyo, Anambra, Kano etc. Even though it's free for all, you are still strangers no matter your achievements. Whatever is yours is yours though as long as you follow the right process.

You're ignorant but take pride in your ignorance!

Since petrol is imported, check the international price of a liter of petrol. Do the exchange rate and tell me why you shouldn't be buying for N1500 per liter. Who pays the difference?

The govt is actually earning less but the devalued naira is deceiving you. Do you know how much Tinubu has borrowed?

Max24:
How much since you have the figures ? And yet govt is financing bigger projects like coastal highway. Where is Tinubu getting money from to do those projects if he is spending more on subsidy and naira floating? Did you hear anywhere in govt that they don't have cash? Is Tinubu not ready to pay #62k + minimum wage if not for the governor's. Even Ottis has not paid the last min wage of #30k. Lagos is ready to pay #70k plus. Oga, use your brain before dem use am for you. You are not arguing objectively on issues on this forum. You seem brainwashed.

Lagos is not no man's land, its Nigerian territory.

Curious345:
To this day ,I still strongly believe that Lagos is no man's land ..
It's an ex capital , and was developed with money from the federal reserve..

Ignore these petty tribalist and divisive propagandist..

Will he do it forever? Igbos have been in Lagos before most ronus fathers were born

Peterobiisathie:
MC oluomo will not let you vote in Lagos

Tinubu is paying more subsidy that Buhari and GEJ

Max24:
That's what is called controlled deregulation. What do you expect? - for govt to totally hands off subsidy and naira? You must be naive. Tinubu is too smart to do that. But having it under control is in the right order.Even Jonathan attempted to remove subsidy but didn't have the political will which Tinubu has demonstrated. That's courage of leadership which all great leaders have.

If you're not ready to abide by the 1999 constitution, convoke a sovereign national conference,
nor be by cho cho cho

helinues:
Stop asking me dumbo question. Who are you to tell the SW people how to run their affairs or what they called themselves?

We are paying subsidy now and defend the naira occasionally. Penny wise pounds fo0losh

Max24:
Funny, you said Obi won't. Are you Obis PA ? It's obvious you don't know politicians. I will tag you when he does.
To the issues of policy again you don't know the situation of things. All govts since 1999 knew removal of subsidy, floating of currency and lg autonomy are the right things to do. They just didn't have the courage to bell the cat. Those issues are the best in the countrys long term interest. No great policy anywhere in the world that does come at a cost. Even China had so many hardship when they were devaluing their currency but today they are prosperous. Aren't you ashamed of Nigerias progress after 60 years of independence what have we achieved? So we need a new strategy even if it comes with temporary hardship. Only a madman keep doing things the same way for 60years and expects a different output. Bros, you need to wake your brain up !

There is no federal system of govt where you have three federating units. We always do things upside down.

We should be pushing for state autonomy, not lg autonomy!

maasoap:
Most likely, we all knew this.


Yes, we know. But we don't need the govs to destroy local govt administration.
If executives at the federal and state levels are doing what they like with their allocations, local govt executives too should be allowed to have the same opportunity. Afterall, the fund legally belongs to the local governments. This will even help in stamping out this caretaker committees nonsense that all govs are practising

There is absolutely nothing like SW in the constitution. No law is applicable to someone from Ekiti,
that is not applicable to someone from Delta living in Lagos!

Again, where is your father's house in Lagos?

helinues:
Are you from Lagos state? From any part of South West states? If the answer is NO why not STFU

Lagos is Nigeria's commercial capital and Nigerians will continue to live, thrive and do business there till Nigeria split!

Where is your father's house in Lagos?

helinues:
Those who have been calling Lagos no man's land are now over doing it which is becoming so rude and senseless to the Yoruba's.

Don't let us take things personal the way you people have been taken it cos you won't like it.

Attacking a whole tribe because of politics should stop hence forth. Make una face the politicians and their political party without lumping the people from the region into it.

Enough is enough

He wont!
Obi wouldn't have crashed Nigeria the was Tinubu has done.

If you think this Supreme Court judgement is beneficial, wait until the damages start coming like subsidy removal. There is a reason why GEJ and Buhari left certain things like subsidy removal, naira floating and local govt autonomy.

The first two policies of Tinubu backfired and his presidency has been damaged irreversibly. Now he wants to bury it with lg autonomy.

Max24:
You should be ashamed of your principal Obi. You see the way Atiku spoke well when Tinubu delivered. Though I won't be surprised if he now copies Atiku and says something because he is not a man of himself. I expect him to copy Atiku. An inexperienced man that would have led us to nowhere.

Fubara will not conduct that election unless he is sure to put his people there

Zxcvbnmghtr:
In the case of Rivers, the PDP chairman is 100% pro Wike. Do your permutations.

This is how you guys celebrated subsidy removal until it backfired.

You're pushing Tinubu to one term president for sure

SmartPolician:
Rivers isn't the only state where that nonsense happens. At least this SC judgment will compel governors to start conducting a proper election - even though their parties will eventually win everything.

With this SC judgment, those states that depend on Abuja allocation to get by go suffer wella. Governors will have to start thinking out of the box.

You guys are bunch of ignorant fellow

OkoYibo:
Odinkalu is trying to get himself arrested so he can gain credibility as a Rights activist being persecuted.

In the NGO world, if you can build that reputation as a persecuted rights activist, you've struck gold. Grants will pour in like water.

Can you sensibly dispute anything he said?

allthingsgood:
I watched the interview of Prof Chidi Odinkalu on Channels TV regarding the Supreme Court judgement granting autonomy to LGA and I was shocked.

How can a senior lawyer vomit such obscenities against the entire judiciary, just because your candidate didn't win election. Infact, the comments made by Prof Odinkalu completely deviated from the question asked. Instead of giving opinion on local government autonomy, Prof went hay wire insulting the Supreme Court and the entire judiciary.


Honestly the man needs to be punished or at least called to order

They generate all the money. Fg has no land

Standing5:
What are the job of the states?

They always need money and hardly generate any.

When the problems start like fuel subsidy removal and naira devaluation, I will be here to remind you guys.

You guys are always shortsighted!

AntiMarxist:
That's because the state governors have taken out humongous loans to be repaid through the state/LGA joint account and allocations from the FG.

This is a win for grassroot governance and will prune and check the excesses of Tin god governors who treat state and local govt resources as their personal piggy banks.

Obidients do not care about Reno.

He said he is for Atiku but never promote Atiku

Richtaiwo:
A reasonable response to Reno would have been an explanation discrediting his claim, not the shyt you posted here which only confirms the narrative. Now, did the tyrannical pandora agulu fraud conduct any LGA elections at any point in his 8 year administration of Anambra state?

This is not the solution. The solution is to fix the electoral system so vote count 100%. Without that anything you do is cosmetics

ACKayleb:
Currently my LG allocation for a year stands at over 2.4bn naira (over 200m a month)

For analysis let's use 2bn x 23LGA in my state across boards, that's 46bn/year a the governor is collecting n sending meagre amount to his CTC cronies, note my LG is not receiving the highest, it's like 15 on list yet no primary health care that is functional, no roads as least as just graded oo, no portable drinking water no light, oga haba u check am nan I prefer my LG chairman to loot all the 2.4bn since he doesn't have immunity than a useless greedy governor who has been looting it for years with immunity, Nigerians always supporting evil no matter the good that seems to come out of it, I pity una

Local governments are not federating units!

We get a good system and ruin it with our ineptitude!

Show me one country thats practicing this type of federalism?

loswhite:
Is that what you can deduce from the Supreme Court judgement? Where did you see that federal Government will be controlling local government fund? Have you ever asked yourself why we blame the president for everything but never the governors? I am sure you are among those always calling the presidency but have never attacked your state governors for their reckless use of state funds.

How did Yahaya Bello became a governor? Flawed judicial system that ratified a rogue that wasn't even in the ballot.

Fix your electoral system so that the process is credible and people with credibility can win elections and use the state resources judiciously!

You cannot be talking of fg govt controlling local gvt resources and still talk of federalism

loswhite:
State Autonomy to Governors that are transferring 760k Dollars for school fees just like that…. You guys are just mad.

Oya run along, go and look for a play mate

ALTERNATEID:
I laugh at your bitterness and pain 🤣🤣🤣

I laugh at your ignorance

ALTERNATEID:
The fact that you are angry.

So whats the point of your celebration?

ALTERNATEID:
Are the governors using the LGA funds they are stealing for the masses?
