Fubara is in support of state of emergency .

Rivers State have been sold , Tinubu will fail in the North

Tinubu just saved Fubara from impeachment.
Fubara now 6 months to fix this issues before he returns to office.
Some of you are just dumb.
Can't you see that even Fubara and his team are in support of the SOE

Jorussia:
Since the day femi falana said 3 members of the house of assembly in rivers can validly legislate for rivers state on account of supposed defection of 27 members,I lost any form of respect I had for him as a lawyer.Honestly, even if the 27 members got their seats declared vacant on account of defections,the appropriate and legal thing to be done was for the NASS to takeover the functions of the rivers house of assembly since 3 can't form quorum in 31 members house.

I watched two interviews on arise tv yesterday that has made me come to the conclusion that the issue of whether the president can suspend elected governors and legislature in case of emergency rule has not been tested in the law court.Justice Owaode rtd who criticized some aspect of the supreme Court judgement on Rivers assembly case,said the limits of section 305 of the Constitution has not determined.People saying the president can't suspend the governor and legislature are relying on section 188 which is not a case during emergency.

Finally,I am 90% sure the president won't get 73 votes in the Senate to get this through.I think he should have informed the leadership of the NASS at least 2days before the emergency declaration.I understand the fear and concerns of the president regarding threats to disrupt oil production in Rivers,but I think the emergency rule was too hasty.

He had actually notified the leadership of the NASS and gotten a nod before taking the step. I am sure the leadership would have assured him of compliance.

Your second paragraph is very educative.
Thank you

iampeterben:
This has nothing to do with his brother's death. Guess it's a stolen phone matter, which is very rampant in Lagos.

Are you sure you read anything written here or you just could not comprehend?

He should be locked up till he speaks.
You had the video evidence of how your brother died, you kept it and you want to sell it to be paid via BTC to prevent trases. You either have a hand in your brothers death or you are a fraud...
Who has time to record his dying brother. My brother is dying and I am recording on my phone.
Then I am keep an evidence can could help with investigation.....

kedeojo:
Mr comprehensionist. So you didn't read the part were mohbad brother said he has sold the phone already and probably the new owner was using his identity to defraud people. Pls don't take up teaching job cos you will be a bad English teacher.

This is one of the youths that will insults the elders in government....
Are you telling us that Mohbads brother sold his phone along with his sim card?
You want to say that they may be using the WhatsApp but even an idiot knows that Whatsapp will automatically log you out as soon you log in on a new device....

You young Nigerians are the easiest to manipulate....
Let's even say he sold the phone for real.
So he has the video of his brothers death on the phone he sold and didn't turn it in as evidence....

You are even mad for defending this madness...
Mohbads brother is either either withholding evidence or he is a fraud...
You children should use your head even if it's for 2 hours a day. Think

Thank you for this clarification.

Atiku will jump around sharing dollars every 4years but ground rent of 7m they can't pay.

This is just shameful. Since 2023 you got the notice and you couldn't put yourselves together as a party to pay 7m.

They collected about N60billion for that project, I remember all them Dangote contributed back then, the building they couldn't finish ground rent they can't pay..

PDP has embezzled their own money

Lack of education is the biggest problem among Nigerians.
Most Nigerian are literate. They can read and right but zero education.

So op can not on his own know the difference between what happened then and what is happening now....

It is just shameful how brainless Nigerians can be.

Op at least use your brain to analyze the motive and motivation behind the two events , maybe that would help you think

zombieHUNTER:
Yoruba man

shut up

Which National Assembly or supreme Court did Tinubu consult before removing an elected Governor,

You lots have been defending poverty, hardship, killer herdsmen, and state capture since 2023

Nigerians should se through a Yoruba man now

This is one of the empty headed animals Abati sing for.

zombieHUNTER:
you couldn't even show us the National assembly Tinubu consulted

Yoruba man
continue defending injustice, corruption, herdsmen, evil

This animalistic behavior is the reason why your tribe goes no where and you cry marginalization everyday. When Buhari was in power you created topics about Fulani and insult Fulani on every thread. Now a Yoruba man is president you have started insulting the Yoruba tribe, you are a barbaric and animalistic people.

You see anyone with a contrary opinion as a Yoruba man and insult them.
Wild animals

Good riddance

Hankulu:
Fubara is one of the most upright governor ever to have emerged from Niger Delta. Sensible and hardworking Nigerians are solidly behind him.

Because he is rebuilding an State assembly complex that he demolished without the approval of the state house of assembly?
Wetin dey do una for head?

nwakibe:
Is that enough reason why Tinubu should violet the constitution he swore to uphold?
This state of emergency cannot last beyond one week.
Let's see how he is going to get 2/3 of the national assembly to endorse it.

Tinubu never violated the constitution the Emergency Powers (Repeal and Re-enactment) Bill 2018 as amended gives him the power. The Act says, “The President may, with the approval of the National Assembly, suspend a State Governor or the Local Government Chairman in an emergency area during an emergency period.”
Go and get a copy of the Nigerian constitution and learn.
Most of you don't know what your constitution says that's why you keep thinking the government is cheating you
The president acted according to the law

AMI3:
Do you know what it takes to suspend democratical elected governor or to declare a state STATE OF EMERGENCY?

Ur political affiliation has made you to lost your sense of reasoning.

You are just one of the many ignorant Nigerians who knows nothing about the law making noise up and down

The Emergency Powers (Repeal and Re-enactment) Bill 2018. The Act says, “The President may, with the approval of the National Assembly, suspend a State Governor or the Local Government Chairman in an emergency area during an emergency period.”

Go and get a copy of the constitution, read it and know what the law says

mrksquare:
Even if militant destroy any pipeline, the suspension of a democratically elected governor is a bad precedent that should never be allowed to stand. Tinubu doesn't have the power. The implication of what Tinubu did is that if the country is at war, it can be used as a basis to suspend all democratic structures in the country.

Don't be ignorant most of you talking have never seen a copy of the Nigerian constitution.
Nigerians don't know the law that is why you people always say the Judiciary has been bought.
By the way the president has the power to suspend and remove a sitting Governor
The Emergency Powers (Repeal and Re-enactment) Bill 2018. The Act says, “The President may, with the approval of the National Assembly, suspend a State Governor or the Local Government Chairman in an emergency area during an emergency period.”

You sat as an elder states man and you fanning Fubara while he was misbehaving.
Declaring the sits of house of Assembly members vacant.
You couldn't call him to order.
If Fubara knew he won't be able to keep to the agreement Wike brought to the table why agree to the conditions only to start fighting 2weeks after....

Fubara demolished the State House of Assembly,you kept quiet.

Militants came out and said they will blow up pipelines instead of Fubara to condemn it he came out and said "we would tell our youth when to act" You kept quiet and kept on fanning Fubaras stupidity.
Now you are crying foul....

Offpointng:
Shut up toddler. Cuz if you wasn't a toddler you'd know weapons weren't sold to him under Obama's Admtn

Look at this bastard.
Weapons were not sold to Nigeria under Obama. Who is this son of a mad dog?

Weapons were not.... Let's even say that is true which is not. Is it only the US that sells weapons? Has Nigeria not been buying weapons from other countries....
Let me ask you, you said the US didn't sell us weapons under Obama, was that why Johnathan and Dasuki stole the $2b.... Yes I said Jonathan because he signed up for the money....
You see that you are just another stupid animal with a dead brain....

How daft can you be giving such an animalistic excuse.
You are just another stupid bushbaby

Gadafii:
with all the equipment, super tucano etc Buhari bought, we should have a single bandit or terrorist alive by now, don't you think?

With all the military equipment that the US has, the US, France, UK etc were in Afghanistan for 20years to fight the Taliban, at the end the Taliban still chased them out, that is about 4 of the strongest military in the world couldn't take out 1 terrorist group, the Nigerian army is facing Bokoharam, ISWAP and then Bandits. Why did you say this when the Talibans kicked out the US after 20years in Afghanistan

billyG:
Supposing it was federal government or wike thugs that blow d pipelines to justified declaration of state of emergency we know d script...to remove fubara at all cost...wike & tpain are birds of same feathers.

Yes it is possible.
That is why people need to be careful with their words.
If I threaten my neighbor and he dies the next day, I will be the first person the police will pick up even I have no hand in his death.
As a sitting Governor you can't be encouraging anarchy, now he made those statements and this has happened. Even if the pipe were not vandalized by the militants, nobody is going to hear that, the militants threatened to vandalize the pipes.

If Fubara had condemned it instead of saying we would tell you when to act...

I mean are you even thinking of you what you are trying to defend here? How can a sitting Governor tell hoodlums that he will tell them when to act, the same hoodlums that just said they will blow up pipe lines

Truthfully.
Fubara made himself the prime suspect in the vandalization.
How can militants threaten to blow up pipes and instead of condemning them you are telling them "I will tell you when to act"
You didn't condemn their threats and discourage them but you simply told people who are planning to attack the state infrastructure that you will tell them when to attack.
Then then is an attack in the infrastructures and as a sitting Governor you never condemned it or took any actions.

Looks like a politically motivated attack

When hand go touch this boy, e no go funny for am oh

MetaMatrix:
Are you normal?? Are you robot?
Who and Fubara did the supreme Court made law onto?? What have you been smoking

Okay now we can see who is on drugs.
He said Supreme court made law.
I am talking to someone who doesn't know the responsibilities of the different arms of government, he said Supreme court made law...
This is basic social studies in primary school and you are having difficulty in understanding it...
Hmmmm.

Britishpea:
was he not alive when Tinubu was mediating in the fight for about three times? Did he ever commend his leadership...Atikus ambition is buried..he should accept it or go nd beg Tinubu to let him rule for 1 week...hahaha...

He was the VP when Fayose and Dariyes states were under the same emergency...

He is the presidential candidate of the party he, sat down while the matter grew from bad worse, never once made any attempt to resolve the issue. It had to take the president from another party to come in and try to resolve the issue.

A presidential candidate can't handle a fight between two Party members, can Atiku handle the craziness in every corner of Nigeria if he becomes president.

Dude is not presidential at all

Mercisharelove:
Illiterate tinubu, what does he understand Politics and how to win elections.

His eyes will clear in the coming days.

Uneducated people are so quick to call people illiterate.
You know nothing about the constitution of your country yet you call the custodian of the constitution an illiterate.
By the way what will ij the coming days, will you get poorer than you are ?

jubrilELsudan:
THE WAY MY BLOOD DEY BOIL E FIT BOIL EGG

DOKUBO AND CREEK BOYZ DISAPPOINT SHA CAUSE BY NOW EVERYWHERE SUPPOSE TO DEY BURN

How old are you?
Do you know what a state of emergency is at all.
All these children of nowadays.
You know nothing

ogaemma:
There is provisions for state of emergency enshrined in section 305 of our constitution.
But the president does not have the power to collapse the entire democratic structure of the state.
What happened in Rivers State is a coup.
You cannot stop the function of the house of assembly.
When Goodluck Jonathan declared state of emergency in some northern states, the governor's were not removed.

Was the governor and the House of Assembly involved in the crisis?
Why can't you people understand that this is a completely different situation.

PrinceAsanike:
You are only being abusive, the other guy is more rational and his point is very cogent. Learn to express your view with respect

The state of emergencies were declared for a completely different reason from the reason now, why does a normal thinking person think that it should follow the same pattern when the circumstances are different.
The governor and the HoA members were suspended because they have been the real cause of the crises. You can declare a state of emergency and have the same people who brought about the breakdown of law and order sitting on their thrones

Mercisharelove:
Shut up . Violence is it not the basis on which the SOE was declared.

Let it burn

It is because or slowpokes like you who can't think for themselves that Reno is giving this advice.
You are so slow you couldn't even read to understand what Reno is saying, yet so foolish you are responding to topic you can't comprehend.
What has this your response got to do with what Reno has said?
Na because of empty heads like you Reno dey talk...

Starting a comment with shut up show deficiency in proper home training

Reno is actually right about this.

ImmaculateJOE:
I understood the topic.

You failed to state, that in 2013, the Governors and their HoA members weren't suspended unlike what just happened in Rivers State.

In 2013 the governors and the House of Assembly members were not the cause of the crisis...
Can't you see that these are two different events.
I think you people should use your brains more please

I don't understand why people are acting like the president invented something new.

MrGerald:
He attended because the woman stand for truth and not the other way round

You people don't even understand how things are done

NAF just dey para.
If we had the equipments we have now, we for done finish this rubbish since, but Jonathan and them Dasuki say NO. Them Share the money

$2billion dollars, they chop am,
come give soldiers catapult
Give Air force broom
Come give Navy Canoe
