PoliticsRe: Why I Don't Attend Council Of States Meeting With President Buhari – Fayose by firo08(m): 9:43am On Jul 12, 2016
MadCow1:
Fayose says he does not want to be lectured by people who ran their states economy into the ground.



Meanwhile in Ekiti State, the economy is currently 6ft underground and burrowing further.

Lowest IGP in the country.

Unpaid workers salary running over 6 months.

Doctors on Strike

Teachers on Strike.

Governor on strike.

Without Federal allocation, Ekiti can't survive.

Heavily indebted state.

Contributes nothing to the Economy.

Insecurity on the rise

Stomach infrastructure is the only infrastructure Fayose has built.

Op. My guess you are the conductor of the 12 tyres truck. Stop the lies.

Points

You went to ekpoma from delta, but your title is abuja -benin. You are transporting food food commodity from northern Nigeria to Southern Nigeria.

Your truck is broken down maybe due to bad roads and you have spent days on it. Not commuters

You posted only the picture of your broken down truck from different angles, I can't find other commuters suffering the same fate as yours, this is out of frustration and the distance from you and the truck from the 3rd pix suggest you were coming from the mechanic where you trekked to.

Since its a major road a federal road as you claimed I cannot find any other vehicles . Shows its not a major road from North to south through abuja

By my investigation you guys over loaded the truck and it broke down when you and the driver took an entirely different route to avoid the authorities.
my friend just keep your mouth shut because u no nothing about d current state of d road...

Fayose is an embarrassment to we yoruba people and Nigerians at large.

Aisha don deny fayoshit, Ribadu don clear the air, Zenith bank don avoid am, even tonyebarcanista a PDP supporter is in support of the ice block buhari put on his account. At the end of the day, we shall all laugh at his mumunity and foolishness when he becomes the first governor to be disgraced out of office twice. God bless everybody that voted for buhari cool

CultureRe: Edo Government Retracts Statement On Oba's Appointment by firo08(m): 3:14pm On May 25, 2016
dukie25:
I wasted nearly an hour this morning lecturing people on Bini/Edo culture.
The facts are:
Oshiomhole can't appoint the Oba of Benin, it is hereditary, it's a birthright different from the Oni of Ife, the Sultan of Sokoto or the Emir of Kano.

Eheneden Erediauwa becomes Oba at the death of his father, no other person can occupy that position as long as he is alive.
If Eheneden dies today, his first son even if he is an infant would be the Oba, regents would then steer him till he is old enough to take over.
thanks my brother, some folks on NL where busy making trash comments. Benin tradition stands for birthright and hereditary.. nice one bro..
