Politics › Re: Ebonyi Govt Reacts To Report Of Awarding ₦4.1Billion Projects To 24 Sole Bidders by edogu(m): 11:04pm On Jan 15, 2025
Solsix:
After implementing minimum wage very close to Dec, he also approved #150k for civil servants in the state as Christmas bonus and you say he's not wasteful?? Last two years many governors approved Christmas bonus, how many did that this year? It will help you understand how waste the governor is. What Ebonyi needs now are projects that will open up the state to investors.
Who told you that he's not doing that?

Nwifuru is so reckless financially. He's just giving out millions of naira to his family and friends. Everyday we hear he gives 10 million to this, twenty million to that.
He's giving out low budget project at a very exorbitant price and low pace. He's just a direct opposite of Umahi. Ebonyi have entered one chance
I doubt if you're from Ebonyi State. Reading your post, one may think the Governor is not doing anything. He may not be performing optimally like Abia State Governor but he's trying.

For the first time since the time of Umahi, there was a massive recruitment by his administration. Not just that, close 1000 Ebonyians were awarded scholarships to both local and international schools.

Have you forgotten the state the university before he took over from his predecessor. University workers were owed two to three months salaries. When he assumed as the Governor, he took care of all the astounding arrears.

In terms workers gratuities, there were series of verification to understand the true situation of things in terms how many were owed. His Governor has paid all the outstanding gratuities owed to retirees. My uncle is testimony to that.

He was among the first Governors to implement the newly approved minimum wage. At a time when federal staff were complaining bitterly, he paid civil servants not just their December salaries on time but an additional 150000 as Christmas bonus.

In terms of infrastructure, he may not be working optimally when compared to his predecessor but he is working. The ongoing construction at the vanco section may be slow but he's working.

Were you expecting the government not tax? How then do you want them to generate revenue? In terms of tax, you can't compare him with his predecessor. He collects but that he does with empathy.

And for your information, Ebonyi State has not entered one chance.

If you want to be relevant in Nigeria, try to be controversial. Reno knows that the only way to make money from his tweet is to post controversial contents. Notice that he tends to get more engagement each time he post something related to Peter Obi or opinion that seems to be anti-people. The best way to approach him is to ignore but how many of us can ignore controversial posts.

It's not just the paramilitary. If possible, other sectors should be investigated as well. The amount corruption perpetrated using the IPPIS platform, if uncovered, will shock the public. Right now, it seems the matter involving the former accountant general of the federation has been closed. You now see why ASUU is against the IPPIS platform.

Politics › Re: Atiku: You Kicked Against Zoning Because Of Peter Obi – Eze Replies Wike by edogu(m):
Kreesxxx:
Eze is being intellectually dishonest. It was the turn of the South. Atiku shouldn't dictate for the South. Atiku did that because Wike was against his candidacy. Wike insisted that it was the turn of the South. And truth be told it was between South South and South East. An external person shouldn't be the one to say it must be from this zone. South never dictated where northern candidacy came from. Yaradua was from North West the same with Buhari. South didn't say it must be north east or central. Where was Atiku when Buhari took APC ticket after Yaradua?
As it is today South South still has a term to complete.
How can you say that it was the turn of South South? Was Goodluck not from South South? If we are to go with your logic that means it's equally the turn of the South West.

In Uyo, blackmarket sometimes sell pms cheaper than filling stations. Last Week, I entered an ALL STATE mass transit from Uyo to Umuahia and to my greatest suprise the driver instead of going to a filling station to buy pms preferred to buy from blackmarket . Blackmarket was selling 1150 while filling stations were selling from 1180 and above.

free2ryhme:
it wont drop as dangote will not buy crude below international market price
Let's be hopeful. It's possible. The war in the middle east vs Russia/Ukraine are part of the reasons for the increase in the price of crude. Let's hope that Trump's intervention will contribute positively in the fall of crude oil price. Let's not forget that he promised to lift any ban that will lead more oil production in US. More supplies means less demand, less demand means price reduction. Unfortunately, we rely on this crude oil for own revenue. Na where we go get problem.
