Swiftlee:
After reading a pathetic write up by a nairalander about his state Ebonyi through www.nairaland.com/3213807/weep-state-ebonyi-wisdomkosi I was so sad, down casted, frustrated and confused at the state of governance and insensitivity majorlly on those we call our leaders/representatives.

I am an indigene of Kogi state residing in the same state. I must confess that the state is one of the most unlucky not because we dont have resources but with sets of leaders so far since creation in 1991. The state has so far been governed by selfish people neglecting the plight for which they are elected with reckless abandon. This is a strategically located state with several Nigerians plying through because it is the Confluence state where Niger and Benue meets and also a state that merges some northern and southern states at least 11 states share boundary with it.

Recently Governorship poll was conducted and the people in the state where happy chasing the immediate past governor away because he was lazy in terms of the civil service welfare. He owed a month salary before each month is paid. What I mean is, one month is usually outstanding when salaries for the present month is paid. The workers got furious and also happy he left at least they would get paid it time since the new man is young and Nigerians have been crying for when youths will lead us.

We all know and fully aware of political pandemonium in Kogi that brought Yaya Bello the present head of the state. No need to tell all those stories any more. When came like a gentle man looking for who to help, but now, Kogi State is in disarray.

Few months into his administration, he commenced a screening that has not come to an end till date. The annoying part is, he is owing all state workers 7months salary. I mean 7 months sir/ma. Well, the bail out of 50Billion naira has been approved and 20Billion has been paid to the states account of which the governor acknowledges. www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/north-central/202721-cbn-approves-n20-billion-bailout-kogi.html What type of wickedness is this? The whole state has been on strike for months and there seems to be no head way soon because workers are demanding for their rights and the state has remained adamant to their plea.

Please, how can a governor spend, sorry squander Millions naira on just a day's birthday anniversary? When his states workers are starving?
This governor wants to remove everybody that is remaining 5years to retire and those employed since 2010 till date. I have never seen such before. In this type of economy where things are hard these and more are happening in my dear state. Just feeling angry and frustrated because no body is saying anything not even the upper house is calling anybody to other. May God help us.

OP, thanks for your post.

Questions for you.
1. How many months salary was Gov Wada owing workers before you chased him out? Be sincere to man and God.
2. Can you swear to the god of your fathers that Gov Yahaya Bello is owing ALL WORKERS 7 months salary as at today (because you posted this today)?
3. Why are MOST civil servants in Kogi state against the screening out of ghost workers?

OP, your answers to above questions will lead to my next comment, Waiting.

Another wonderful work of God!

Upon ontop unemployment wey dey dis country, state governors are more interested in buying vehicles and equipment for fighting crimes for the police and other security outfits instead make dem open agricultural centres to employ people. I tell you, de money used to purchase one hilux vehicle can establish agric farm wey fit employ 10 - 20 graduates.

Our leaders de deceive demselves o. No amount of security vehicles and equipment can stop the hungry youths from crime. By the way, the governors na dem be criminals pass the unemployed youths sef, abi I talk lie?

Chai, see how de pages of dis thread de fly o.

Truly, it is not easy in Naija, unemployment & hunger dey well well.

csamii:
Those people wey dey live close to those rich men no dey hungry. If hunga wire dem like e wire one guy for my street wey vex climb enter one rich man compound. Him no send the barb wire and bottle wey dey the man fence, him no send say na day time. Him just enter kill the man dog wey everybody for that street dey fear, lift am still pass that same fence, come carry am go cook chop. Nigeria don reset many people head especially graduates.

Hunger bad o.

Wallahi! Dem de look like doll baby.

2 of them are worthless to the existence of this country. Thieves! How I wish thunder will just blow them into pieces. Criminals!

Long overdue. Oya, carry go oooooooo.

Hmm. Wahala dey dis country o.

ThundrCork:
With the comments I am seeing here, in the next one year, a lot of youths will result to crime to make ends meet. consequently making the entire country unsafe. Even the rich will not be safe

How can the rich be safe when him neighbours de hungry? For my area eh, all the rich men don imprison demselves, the fence wall of their house tall pass their houses. In fact, some use iron and concertina wire for the top of the fence like say na war zone, with a mighty dog barking at the gate. The rich know that the people are not happy with dem for stealing their wealth.

Original kolo-mental.

OP, you can lie o. Tufiakwa! You have been infested with LAI-MOUTHOSIASIS.

See wahala!!!

Old Roger suppose get up and give them a knock naa......Abi, Old Roger no dey that grave?

Who will those drivers that at the slightest provocation will spread their fingers in "uwaka" style be causing now?

A no no for me.

Looters know the trick!

Houseboys/girls and even oga/madam drivers should be making it in this season. Atleast, they know where oga/madam de hide money and its possible, they get a piece of the cake.

Religion na politics, most of them know all the tricks....After the prayers, na looting of Nigerian treasury. Hmm. Religious in deed!
