Labour Party.

Senate president should come from South South.

nnamdi640:
I can see the kind of augment going on in this section of this headline as a result of obedient. No matter what you guys say the best is to create a friendly environment such creating job opportunities, stable electricity and good security also good educational system. When you build bridges and the above are lacking, a little disaster such as protest can turn those infrastructures to dust.

Is stable electricity not infrastructure?

NaijaRoyalty:
Bottom line because buhari shut out the south east because the region didn't vote for him in 2019

The Yoruba people used to cry marginalisation during the PDP government while the Igbos held on to all the very important positions in government under PDP back then...

Buhari government will go with it's hate and Igbos will bounce back again politically

Yeah, igbos showed Buhari love but he didn't reciprocate.

According to him, the South East are good in business and are well talented but they should learn politics, “in politics they are at the bottom line.”

logicalhumour:
Don't put it like that! I'm not arguing against infrastructure. I'm simply saying production should be prioritised. And e get why.

Ever since I remember myself, politicians have been selling themselves to us with stuff like "I will build this infrastructure, I will build that..." and yet, nothing ever seems to happen. Putting corruption aside, perhaps we're lagging on infrastructure because we just can't get production right!

Why don't we try something new?

You do know one who made
such pronouncements - which has come to fruition (Lekki deep seaport), is on the ballot?

logicalhumour:
Are you a farmer? No? Well, that's what I thought. Now, listen to a Benue boy educate you on farming in Nigeria.

- First of all, lemme break it to you that "good roads" aiding transportation is just a secondary school business studies meme. No matter how rugged a road is, our trucks will pass.

- Silos you say. If we encourage producing so much rice —more than we can consume, do you finding a way to store it will be a problem? Only the revenue generated from exporting it can handle the needed storage facilities (and once again, production gives birth to infrastructure)

- Communication
You're kidding, right? Don't get me started.

- Bridges, railways, "infrastructure is key"

Of course, infrastructure is key, however, the question is, should it be prioritised over production?

Because you are Benue boy, you are now an authority on farming?

Even the Benue from High level in Makurdi to Ortukpo enroute Nsukka, we've been there.

Arguing against infrastructure is a disservice to your education.

wiseoneking:
opps! Only three watches I'm seeing. 600 Naira watch. Damn!

Remove that dumb watch from my view

What's the make?

Some people right now.

Aurielfinizu:
E de pain you gagaaaa..

Instead of tinibu we vote Atiku...

Tinibu will never smell it

You will vote from Vienna?

Trump tried something similar.

PresidObi:
Not as key as security, because we have been farming in this country since 1300 when there were no good roads. But we cannot farm with insecurity.

That's why I am talking about enabling environment over infrastructure.

So if someone says he would ensure there's infrastructure, he means he would not tackle insecurity?

Do you people even reason before you write?

PresidObi:
The best way to improve the economy is to create enabling environment for the masses to take over productive ventures and make profit, then pay tax.

Enabling environment like easy loans, stable interest rates, strong security, etc

As a farmer, good roads to your farm, construction of silos, bridges, railways, communication etc. would ease and improve your business.

Infrastructure is key.

I remember raising the issue when someone presented Atiku's profile here on this forum.

When they tell you about governor's compensation:

WATCHOVER:
Government is a continuous process, all this salaries or gratuities are mostly inherited from previous leadership

Another one during his time in office.

Peter Obi's greatest gift is how to lie and distance himself from incidents he contributed to.

For instance, he has been a PDP member for over than 10 years, but he'll act as if he never partook in their system of governance.

Everlastingson:
If you lived abroad for over 20 years as you typed here you wouldn't reason the way you do.

Says someone who hasn't left Abagana.

Amumaigwe:
Compare and contrast

See what Tinubu collects from Lagos State government since leaving office in 2007 by the law passed by him as governor:

1. 300% annual salary as severance package as approved by RMAFAC.
2. 100% of annual basic salary of incumbent gov as salary for LIFE even after leaving office.
3. Six new cars every 3 years
4. A new house in Lagos, minimum 5 bedroom
5. A new house in Abuja or any other location, minimum 5 bedroom.
6. Free medical care for him and members of his family for life.
7. Entitled to cooks, stewards, Gardners, and domestic staffs, all pensionable.
8. 300% of his annual basic salary as governor every 2 years as furniture allowance
9. 100% of annual basic salary as governor as his house maintenance allowance
10. Two DSS officers, 1 female officer for his wife and eight policemen to guard him.
11. 25% of his annual basic salary for personal assistants.
12. 30% of his annual basic salary for car maintenance .
13. 20% of his annual basic salary as utilities maintenance.
14. Pensionable drivers, no limits to the number.

This is apart from what he gets as a percentage of collections from Alpha Beta for tax collections for Lagos State and the total control he has over the governor and the treasury.

But See what Peter Obi collects from Anambra State since leaving office as governor:

1. No gratuity
2. No pensions
3. No houses
4. No cars
5. No allowances of any kind
6. No maintenances of any kind.
7. No personal assistants paid by the state.
8. No domestic staffs paid by the state.
9. No aids sponsored by the state.
10. Not even pure water.
11. No shishi from the State.

So choose you today who means well for Nigeria and who will serve the people selflessly.

Am just exposing your mind to see the truth. It is now your decision to make and to convince others.
Use your reasoning. Vote and support wisely.

Another set of lies.

”THE Anambra State House of Assembly has passed a bill to give adequate pensions, allowances and other privileges on former democratically elected Governors and Deputy Governors of the state.

With the passage of the law, the Anambra State Governors Law, 2005 and the subsequent amendment were repealed.

Cited as the State Governors Pensions Law, 2009, the bill was sponsored by Lilian Okosi, P. I. Obichukwu, Tim Egboka, Nnamdi Ezike and Bridget Chukwuka.

Essentially, the bill provides for life pension for a person who held office as Governor in accordance with the law, at a rate equivalent to his last salary in office subject to review from time to time by the incumbent Governor on the advice of the state Accountant General.

It also provides for an official car, two personal aides and provision of adequate security for his person during his lifetime at the expense of the state government.

Other provisions include allowances for cook, steward, driver and gardener to be determined from time to time by the incumbent Governor on the advice of the Head of Service and medical attention for his person, subject to the approval of the incumbent Governor.

Adaorababy:
How can an 85 year old man be more fit than a 69 year old city boi continues to beat my imagination till this moment

While Tonto Dike is more fit than Ekweremadu's daughter.

MartinsD12:
How many loans has Nigeria government given you since you are alive?

Who is talking about government giving loans?

Honestly, this issue seems more above the understanding of many of you.

No offence.

Aurielfinizu:
Tinibu is old and almost going

You that you are coming what have you achieved?

NewSoul:
I have one wrist watch may mean I have only bought one wrist watch with my money in the last 17 years others may be birthday gifts or gifts from wife, kids or colleagues. Don't be naive

Thr problem with you people is that you can never admit your wrong.

It's a pity.

Reason why Obi would never win.

daddytime:
You better go look for carejob to do.

Even care jobs require some untold hours of work.

filey:
Shame on our leaders, how many of the European man visit Nigeria for vacation but our leaders without shame are quick to travel out of the country for vacation.

Some even stash our money in Panama.

Panama.

Zikojukwu:
I am speechless. How did this man become this corrupt?

This fashion was from the 80s.

The guy is a fool and deserves a long sentence.

On the other hand, i hope she's not the type that drives a man up the wall.
