More like FCT does not have enough money, and there is looting too.

FCT used to raise money from parking meters to supplement its income some 8 years ago, until someone got a court order to stop it.

Also, we don't pay something called a council tax. Many cities in the UK...residents pay something called a council tax which can be as high as 85,000 to 100000 naira. (I know, Nigeria cannot be compared to the UK eh, we are poor)...but that money goes into providing essential services such as street light, transport, etc.

The oyel money that we all rely on is not enough for all of us. Which is why you that is shouting Hausas and Fulani...is your state capital well lit all over? The reason is simple...there isn't enough money to do the job.(apart from Lagos maybe, and even Lag is not well lit all over). Because your tax to gdp ratio is too low and because the oil price has not been high enough to sustain us for nearly 9 years, if not longer.

States and the FCT need to be innovative in raising money not just for streetlights , but for public services, especially in the cities. And Nigerians too need to put pressure on their leaders to make sure the money is used well to ensure that their cities are run well.(The court case I referred to earlier may have stopped corruption in the parking meter system, but then it also threw out the baby with the bathwater)

(This is not a supporting Buhari message...personally, I think the minister of FCT should be more of a professional than a polticial somebodi. APC continued with the same old same old.Ironically, the last really good FCT minister we had was El-Rufai.)

Gireiboy:
How many times do you want people to tell you guys, that no country in these world would extradite it citizen to a foreign country.

Pauldollars:
Though there's no source for this news
However if true, the FG is really slacking in its handling of the security sector in Nigeria. A lot of things are going out of place and crumbling.
But I'm not surprised. Its part of the events Jesus said will happen when he's about to return.

Guru1111:

It's such a pity that the same Keyamo who couldn't win his polling unit during the last election could be the one fighting over the apc leadership...

Any ways,they aren't better off than one another....Just a new brand of similar criminals

PrinceOfLagos:
It is no longer news that Nigeria banned the import of rice and some other goods coming into the country from Benin republic which of course had dealt a serious blow on the economy of this small west African nation .

But with Sunday Igboho arrest and knowing how far Buhari could go to lay his hands on the Yoruba nation freedom fighter, The Benin republic government may want to go on a round table negation with the Nigerian government to trade the Yoruba nation agitator for full Benin republic and Nigerian border re-opening.

My opinion tho .

How do cultist even sleep at night?

Latakia:
You broke traffic rule in Benin republic is a big offence not to talk of acquiring their international passport through an illegal way. Now you know why Buhari appointed and posted the ex service chiefs to neighbouring countries.
