There are probably some hoarding, but a considerable number of them are selling to damn long queues at cut throat prices. The rest are dry with a percentage trying to pump out their dead stock. We've never had it this bad .

IyaIode:
So you know this?

Gbawe:
Oga katsumoto good to see you. Hope you will stick around. Some of my point is that Aregbesola got ahead of himself not planning properly in regards to some of his lofty projects but serious shortfalls in allocation compounded issues. Th FG knows the salary obligation of States and the FG has the duty of putting rainy day savings in place to help States stay afloat yet because of the corruption and wantonly gross looting of the PDP and GEJ many States got into trouble virtually the minute oil prices plummeted. There was no buffers in place at all and between 24-28 States could not pay wages. A responsible government will have no option but to take loans to pay salaries however he may wish to hold out if allocation has fallen by 50-70% and is taking at that level. All in all many governors did not plan well but there is proof they were blindsided by development such as falling oil price.

Many State were already in trouble from when GEJ unilaterally announced a minimum wage, binding on all, that many states could not pay. If we look at all issues as they are interlinked then it becomes obvious that SW governors did compound some problem but we're powerless to prevent others, which they did not cause, from becoming an Albatross around the neck of SW States. This is why I happy GEJ is gone as there is now a chance to repair the damage from the centre while the electorate at State level can do the needful to rove underperforming governors.

This list is incomplete without mentioning Kaduna where we struggle and spend hours in filling stations to buy fuel @ the rate of 120 naira per liter. Black marketers sell it @ the rate of 700 naira per gallon. In fact, I'm still contemplating whether to go out with my car tomorrow or not.
Anyone that says things are moving well in this present administration is a liar. If you are a civil servant, contractor, business man/woman, you will agree with me that people are suffering.
I pray the Almighty God to intervene in our situation in this country.

I bought 8 litres for 2800 naira yesterday, location Calabar.

When did states in a non regionised, no fiscal independent federation become FINANCIAL INSTITUTiONS..

In your free time, read about FRANNIE MAE & FREDDIE MAC.. it will help you understand the role of government policies in development of a nation a bit more..

This is the problem, you praise singing him there but trying to criticize him here. Why not criticize him there as well if you truly love the SW, I know you are a PDP guy and dont want to criticize Fayose cos of PDP, but Please learn to be honest. He is worst and not better than anyone, he is only better in drinking Moet with Amala, snapping pictures with market women e.t.c

attacker231:
I am really mad at Tinubu/Fashola, Lagos state debt is just too high. Kilode naaah.

attacker231:
Good point, but I do see your post praising Fayose and even calling him the new Awolowo. The Fayose guy is even worst, he has done nothing other than drinking Moet with Amala. Pathetic.

attacker231:
Please do, I am really angry. Lagos state shouldn't be owing a dime with all the IGR, FG Allocation, Local government funds e.t.c. We are in trouble with all these lazy politicians.

semitunde:
OK. Can you pls point out the areas you personally think can be improved upon; or areas that critically need prioritised govt engagement, keeping in mind areas that would benefit the populace in terms of employment and / business opportunity?

I like the fact that you see this situation we have found ourselves in the southwest have little political colouration beyond access to, and influence of the federal govt.

Truth is, some governors are just damn lazy when you get to the basics of governance. But they cover up easily by "communicating" - using all means possible, what their populace want to hear.

attacker231:
Honestly, they are all the same. How can Lagos be owing that much debt, same with Ogun and the rest. All the SW governors from 1999 are to be blamed for this nonsense, its annoying.

jaymichael:
You would also have read or seen Gbajabiamila's interviews that he was the one that brought Tambuwal to Tinubu's house in Lagos to seek his support because he felt that Tambuwal was better qualified to lead the house. Tinubu did not know Tambuwal from Adam. I wonder where your Tinubu interests come in all of these.

attacker231:
Hope you see what you and your guys have done to this thread. Sometimes I wish I can see you APC/PDP guys and kill you all, you are a curse to our region.

semitunde:
What's your take on ekiti? Can you give us a political and economic profile of the state that would show us that its in the right path as regards Yoruba socio-rconomic upgrade?

You criticism has its place and limit - same goesfor oother contributors- but you can just as we avail us of information of areas that are encouraging and area that need to be worked on. Pls start with ekiti.

CursedAmadi:
Shut up ediot, You can only lie for your fellow dunce, I know you too well. You have been exposed many times as a paid agent, PDP famous slave. This thread is not for praise singers like you and your fellow APC paid b.astard. Oribu ma je ti gbogbo yin nii.

Rilwayne001:
PDP trying so hard to get their ass up.. Firefire, whats your take on this? Do you think it is a wise move by your party? Can you list atleast 5 APC members you will like to see in PDP?

cc: mogidi.

CursedAmadi:
Gbi yen gan lo ma sheku pa e. We know your antics, you are never objective. we know the reasonable posters on this thread that say the truth without any party affiliation, you are a paid PDP agent and here to promote your party. Go do your rubbish on another thread, stop derailing this thread with your stupidity.

anonimi:
A cursed Amadi working in tandem with a Chidozieude can only call others paid agents because that is obviously what they do for APC.
What a shitty life to lead.
Indeed a CURSED way to earn a living by telling LIES on behalf of those looting our commonwealth.

May God find it in Him to forgive you.
