...
Is it ironical that the same people supporting and hailing Russia for invading a sovereign nation even without prior provocation are exactly the same people criticizing Israel for retaliation after the October 7th attack.

The agenda is clearly against America,and by extension her allies..

it depends on your understanding of the word "provocation".

Senioreddy:
Please tell us exactly how a state assembly's law concerning the third tier of government supercedes the statutory provisions of the constitution of federal republic of Nigeria as it concerns local government administration?

Secondly, was there a recent local government reform that gave room such extension?

LG laws in all states are domiciled in the various States Houses of Assembly (I.e they enact, amend, repeal Local Government Laws, including Local Government Elections Laws whenever necessary). If you feel otherwise, then show me where the Nigerian Constitution or the Electoral Act talks about tenure for LG elected officials.

Very very true. I've seen it happen many times before. This time won't be an exception.

ttobizz:
What's your take on this matter sir?
1 The 27 lawmakers publicly denounced their PDP membership
2 The 27 lawmakers are now card carrying members of the APC
3. The PDP at the state has publicly disowned them.
4. While the PDP has disowned them, the APC hasn't

In your opinion sir, which party do they belong?
If you were the judge how would you give your judgment?

I have an opinion but I think I prefer to wait and hear what the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court will say in a few days time.

Prigidypogodo:
stop crying kpaa kpaa

You obviously don't know the meaning of the word "crying". I know that some of you hate to hear contrary opinion/facts. Everyone cannot have herd mentality.

Abagworo:
That will be like declaration of war in Niger Delta in addition to Southeast, Northeast and
bandits in Northwest and North Central . The best thing is to allow the will of Fubara and indeed 99% of Niger Delta people to prevail

very funny 🤣

TheElites19s:
Before December supreme court go rule and the two sides go dey alright very soon

December or in a matter of days? Don't forget Supreme Court reserved Judgement last week. The will inform the parties on date of judgement any of these days.

adioolayi:
Let the clapping go on...

I hope we all know this is against the Appeal Court Judgment

I no pity any of these politicians anyways...

Na do me ..I do you kind of a thing.


Let the masses enjoy the drama....also, we shouldn't point accusing fingers to the judiciary on final outcomes of all these nonsense
.

unfortunately most Nigerians lack deep understanding of some of these issues. They just make lots of noise.

EXERCISE IN FUTILITY. Supreme Court and Court of Appeal are both set to rule on prayers that decide these matters. At the end of the day, Pro-Wike 27 Lawmakers and LG Chairmen will win. In a matter of few days.

Sometimes It looks to me like Fubara is only acting in entertainment (Nollywood) for some people.

Righthussle:
I used to like Wike until he refused to pay Rivers workers 30k minimum wage for 8 good years and also refused to promote Rivers workers for solid 8 years.

Even Idi Amin no treat him people like that.

Sim is almost toying the same line. He has done a one sided promotion exercise for workers in the state. Local government workers promotion has not been implemented, so they have not been promoted for 9 years now. Also, For political reasons, he has refused to pay local government workers their may and june salaries in this Tinubu era.


For now, Rivers people are supporting him. We pray he doesn't turn out like Wike.

You have been all over the place with this your lies and propaganda. It's getting stale.

Righthussle:
I used to like this man until I was told how he refused to pay the minimum wage of 30k to Rivers workers for 8 years and also refused to promote workers for 8 good years. His wickedness towards Rivers workers was out of this world.

and you just swallowed the lies you heard.,.. Hook, line and sinker? It means you were already looking for a reason not to like him and you found one. Truth is, what you choose to believe doesn't affect the great performer of a man in any way.

EEA1:
You ppl talk a lot for grown ups
I don't know what value is right for that car but I'm 100% sure any of you loud mouths here will probably sell higher if it was yours 🤦🏻‍♂️

Going by this ₦300k/Goodluck logic tho', I did the maths & the equivalent of Goodluck's ₦300k is = Tinubu's ₦2.3m
Smh ✌🏼

so if he bought it 10 years ago at an amount equivalent to today's N2.3 million, is it worth N1.8m now that is very old and has become a rolling pile of junk?

Most people that were arrested in some places like Calabar were not protesting. They hijacked the protest and started destroying and looting government and private property. The police went on house to house searching, recovering a little percentage of the looted property and arrested those in whose possession those things were found. Those are not protesters in my view.

drimzsmoke:
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Calm down, I've moved away from karma a long time ago, at least since the moment you said you believe in science....
Newton 3rs law states, to every action, there's always a equal but opposite reaction.
Now what this simply means is, whatever you do now is coming back to you, just give it time. Isn't that the karma you feared so much.... We will all get what's coming for us at the end of the day!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

it wasn't talking about spiritual actions and reactions. It was talking about the physical.

These guys are too local. How on earth do you put chandeliers in an airport terminal? 😄

oyichi:
don't decieve people, the former speaker did not plead the court to maintain the status quo, he went asked the appeal court to set aside the ruling of the lower court, this judgement is against him, you are just consoling yourself

Bros I won't waste time arguing with you.

@HONEST-TRUTH!

GOV SIMINALAYI FUBARA'S PROPAGANDISTS AND MEDIA URCHINS CHURNING OUT BAREFACED FALSEHOODS AND UNHOLY PROPAGANDAS.

..... Martin Amaewhule DSSRS, is always the Speaker....

I still find it very ridiculous to read from H. E. Sir Siminalayi Fubara's untrained media urchins who are shamelessly feeding the unsuspecting reading public and targeted gullible barefaced falsehoods about the Appeal Court Ruling today, pursuant to the application filed by the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Martin Amaewhule DSSRS, challenging the Exparte Order and the subsequent injunctive order granted the suspended lawmaker, Hon. Oko Jumbo by His Lordship, Hon C. N. Wali of Rivers State High Court in Port Harcourt.
.
Hear them" a stay of further proceedings was also granted but refused to set aside the interim order but rather granted an order for the present status quo to be maintained."

WHAT IS STAY OF PROCEEDINGS IN THIS MATTER?

Martin Amaewhule prayed the Appellate Court to take over the matter filed by Oko Jumbo in Justice Wali's court and determine it by its merit. The court granted the plea. Which means that, Justice Wali can no longer hear the matter again. Martin Amaewhule also prayed the court to vacate both the Exparte Order and the interlocutory injunction granted Hon Oko Jumbo by Justice Wali and the court granted it and ordered that, status quo be maintained before the matter was brought before Justice Wali.

Martin Amaewhule in his final prayer, prayed the court to determine who is the Speaker between himself and Oko Jumbo. The Court declined and said that, it cannot grant that prayer without first hearing from both parties to guide the decision of the court because the matter was before justice Wali which was not heard and determined. So, furnish the Appeal Court with what you have to say in Wali's court so that we can look at matter based on its merit and determine and deliver Judgement. Hence, the Court ordered Amaewhule to serve all the processes on Oko Jumbo for him to respond within 72hours after being served. And adjourned the matter to 20th June, 2024, for hearing.

Dispelling the outright falsehoods and misinformation by the Gov Siminalayi Fubara's losing propagandists by my humble-self.

Here are the facts, the Appeal Court has taken over the matter from Justice Wali to try and determine it. Which literarily means that, Justice Wali has nothing to do with the matter again at all. How then is it possible to retain an Exparte Order and injunctive order that Wali's court no longer presides over? Are these social media urchins telling me that, if they have no logical reasoning, common sense too no dey again?

Let me advice you to kindly use your layman knowledge to think properly how that is possible that, Higher Court will be bound by the Order of a lower Court while it has taken over the matter from same lower Court. Who went to court and pleaded for the status quo to be maintained? RT HON MARTIN AMAEWHULE. So, if the Appeal Court grants that prayer, to whose benefit? Martin Amaewhule.

Dear propagandists on social media, even though this is politics, I have my brain functional and I understand legal terms in my little way. This propaganda cannot fly beyond your door post because Justice Wali who gave the order has been stripped his power by the Appeal Court. Every of his action is null, void and of no effect He cannot do anything about the matter again. First assignment to you. Ask your lawyer if Justice Wali can still entertain the matter now that the Appeal Court has taken over the matter, anything he says, believe it.

Full autonomy for LGAs we stand. And please the government should make INEC conduct LGA elections.

tetralogyfallot:
So the whole Nigeria government don't have $5.5b to build something like this to relieve common man of the hardship of buying pms at exorbitant prices.

the project cost $26B, what he said is that he borrowed about $5.5B from banks.

Bubu4Sea:
NNPC gave you billions.

Buhari simply gave a fellow Northerner our money.

It's why i can't wait for us to break , let's see how you will fare.

NNPC put in about $1.7B which it used to buy about 20% stake in the project. What is wrong with that?

Ezeama400:
He's stylishly telling those hoping for the price of his fuel to crash to brace up..
Dangote is telling you that he has a debt to pay..

If he could deal ruthlessly with Nigerians on his cement price and got away with it, how much more fuel......

Those hoping to buy fuel and cheaper rate have entered one chance

Do you expect him to refine and sell fuel below the cost price? What some of you fail to understand is that Dangote is a businessman and not your government. He is not running a charity.

ZIAZI:
I am a PH boy too, oga. When and where did Nyerishi tell Sim to give him (Nyerishi) 10 billion naira monthly? Did Sim tell you this?

Just answer the question.

before they said Wike requested for N25Billion, now it's N10Billion. All just in a bid to deceive the gullible.

PaellaPaella:
Your incoherent gibberish is so nauseating and stinky, go and help your mom in the kitchen

it's nauseating to you because it's not in line with your stupidity. I won't be surprised if I'm responding to someone younger than my sons.

phantom:
you are the one talking like a kid and I can almost bet you are yoruba. It's only yorubas defending the madness going on in Rivers state because Wike helped enthrone your brother. A man who lost Rivers state woefully to labour party but wike sat in one corner and rewrote results. Hell fire awaits these criminals.

you should have taken your facts to the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.

phantom:
300 million dollars for Ogoni cleanup, wike die the funds according to Boma Goodhead. Till date we've heard nothing about it. 😂. Wike looted that state dry... For 8years we didn't see a budget. Budget that Amaechi revealed transparently every single year. Wike treated a whole state budget like some sort of classified document. No one knows the true cost of projects in the state.

Beer parlour gossip.

phemmyjohnson:
So for nothing you think Fubara will just decide to fight wike who installed him . Think bro think ..
the governor said he can’t even make a decision in the state without wike’s approval . Imagine telling your commissioners to do something and they tell the governor they are waiting for wike to consider it before they get it done . Are you joking ? If you are the governor can you accept it ? In your state . Not to even say he asked for billions every month which the gov agreed to give half of it out but he insisted he wants all based on agreement hence the fall out

He decided to battle his Boss for political supremacy so early so he shouldn't complain. Can you show me some proof of where Wike requested for money?

ddippset:
Wtf are you talking about?

You say Fubara is fighting person wey strong pass am.

And am telling you without Gbajabiamila and Tinubu, Wike is nothing in Rivers state.

He and his supporters keep romancing and petting Tinubu so that he will support them in fighting Fubara.

Na person wey get power be that



If e pain you go hug National Grid.

you are talking like a kid.

phantom:
One man wants almost 10billion of Rivers funds handed over to him every month so he can maintain his hold on PDP and run for presidency in 2027. One greedy man!
Well, I trust my Rivers people. Even if Martins and co come back by some stupid decision from a compromised judiciary, they still can't impeach Fubara. That's for certain. Wike is not getting his hands on any funds.

That stupid lie failed. Try another one.

Cromagnon:
Greed is greed
Nothing like excessive or recessive

that one concern you. Let me say it the way I like.

ddippset:
Person wey strong pass am yet e dey romance Tinubu and Gbajabiamila make them help am with Federal might.
😁

If he is strong let him leave Tinubu's trouser and come to PH and fight a sitting governor let's see.

you probably don't know that Wike is the Minister of the FCT. How does doing his job well bother you? The important thing is that his Boss (President Tinubu) is happy with his performance. You can hug the nearest transformer if it pains you.
