COMRADES, how will the law favour wike? How please?
Nigeria's president shouldn't be partial in this case oo, because when Ijaw nationalities vex enter creek again the economy of Nigeria must bleed, that time brown roof inhabitants will realise that the revenue generated from that region cannot sustain us

Lolz, enter Creek and live there with mosquitoes 🦟

Fubara should pray that the law is on his side, else, nothing Ijaw militant wan do. There are Ijaws on the side of both Fubara and Wike.

And I'd tell you for free, iys only Northerner militia that can effectively threaten the government. Southerners are not ready to die. They can be paid to make noise and cause uproar, but if na to die, nobody go gree die.

Even you, if dem pay you to enter creek go cause wahala, and if death come make you chest am, you go gree??

What a log of garbage. The Huey that the US used in Vietnam is what our army depends on as cutting edge close air support tech? The huey? This platform that was developed in the early 1950s before Nigeria got independence?

In contested airspace where bandits across the North have access to weapon systems that bring down fast moving fighter jets, a huey that its maximum speed is 127mph is just a flying coffin. Who the hell thought this was a good idea?

The US is about to retire several hundred of its A-10 warthogs. That's about the most capable close air support platform around. Since the US is now willing to sell weapon platforms to Nigeria, they might consider selling some A-10s to us. Even though that's a tall order.

2024 and na Huey wey oyibo don forget about since 1950 na him our army fall hand dey buy so. Shebi dem no see blackhawk buy as dem go market?

ReluctantAdult:
Scum? Strong word.

It's just so shameful how the black man can't build and run a nation state for himself. Nothing progressive; just greed, covetousness and doom everywhere.

Even the African-Americans who settled in Liberia fell short of this.

African Americans who were freed from slavery and settled in Liberia, started ownig slaves in Liberia.

Africa has nothing to show at all. Except sex, ethnic fighting, voodoism. No professional excellence, no accountability, no foresight, no inventions, nothing. Just a waste of space.

marksonrick:
Though he isn't but, he has to release money for the conduct of the election.





So, if the 26 members of the assembly losses their case in Supreme Court, the HOR will take over the assembly?
Why have they not done that now.

If they lose their case, INEC will have to conduct elections. But on the interim, the National Assembly is mandated by law to take over the daily functions of the assembly.

Fubara frolicking with the Rivers HoA in this manner is an impeccable offence.

Thomas Sankara that was killed in 1987 thereabouts is who some Africans are still hammering on today.

Please, rise up, dust yourselves and move on.

nairaland94:
For your information, by virtue of their defection and subsequent declaration of their seats vacant, the 27 members are no longer members of Rivers state house of assembly, unless said otherwise by an appeal court. Consequently, Rivers State House of assembly has only 4 members and a quorum can and will be formed from the 4 members.

You are viewing a house of assembly like it is a company or a social club. It is a collection of individuals mandated by their various constituencies across the to represent them. If one membership position is vacant, you have disenfranchised constituency.

1) there are only 3 members in the House of Assembly currently.

2) Defection, resignation and death are circumstances that opens up vacancies in the house of assembly. Where that arises, INEC is called upon to conduct elections to conduct elections to fill up the vacancy.q

3) If the vacancies are such that the house of assembly cannot form a quorum(1/3 of their official members), the national assembly will take over its functions. It is the law don't sugar-coated it.

nairaland94:
What does the law say in a case where 27 out of 32 members lose their seats?
Will the business of law making in the state be suspended?

In any house of assembly anywhere in Nigeria, for whatever reasons possible that reduces the officially recognised house members to such a number that they cannot form a quorum (that is 1/3 of their number) their official day to day functions is constitutionally taken over by the national assembly until when INEC conducts election. Any functions the assembly carries out when it cannot form a quorum is illegal. So if a HoA has 21members, for it to function legally, there must be atleast 7members present at the time of sitting. Anything function made with less than 7members sitting, is an illegal function.

This is the second time I'm explaining same thing to you.

nairaland94:
You mean Rivers State House of assembly should cease functioning because 27 of it's members got their seats declared vacant?
You should be why INEC have not fixed date to elect their replacement.

The law states that when a house cannot form a quorum (1/3 of all the members of the house), the functions of the house is to be taken up by National Assembly.

Negro race, is the scum of the earth.

Senioreddy:
Less than 10 but they are the legitimate and legally recognize lawmakers/legislature. So they are on track

They are only 3. In a house of over 27members, 3 persons cannot make up a house of assembly.

Don't you see that the guy is just catching cruise with you guys emotion?

You don't have to reply or comment on every topics.

I usually look for his topics to cool myself. The guy is a cruise merchant.

He is nairaland number 1 comic relief.

Nailly:
After they have created more States for Ijaws first they should give Anioma State to South East which is Delta Igbos then they should create Enio State which is Upland Rivers State that carry Etche, Ndoki, Ikwerre, Ogba etc.
The Igbos Speaking of Rivers State.



So that Igbos can allow us rest
Their wahala too much.



@General Ditari.

I like your style.

They should first of all create for Ijaw, then they can create for others.

Ditari by now you suppose don build big oven for bayelsa dey make better money.

Gerrard59:
If the Netherlands and Singapore can build new regions/cities on reclaimed lands, Bayesla can do it. The problem is the mentality, economic growth and political will.

Hong Kong and Kansai Airports are built on reclaimed lands. In fact, as I write, the new site for the WORLD EXPO 2025 is built on a newly created island in Japan. Singapore is building a new business district on reclaimed land. Dubai is a world leader in building cities and zones on sand-filled lands. Does it mean the Dutch, Japanese, Chinese and Emiratis have two or three heads compared to our people?

This is the issue I have with Nigerians. The need to compare yourselves with USA, Canada, UK and in this case, The Netherlands and Singapore. What in the name of God makes you believe you are eligible for such comparison.

In 2024, we are yet to sort out the issues with electricity, fuel.supply, food security, access to healthcare, quality schooling, drinkable water. You haven't gotten the basics, yet you want to compare. People have not eaten and you want to carry massive reclamation. Ordinary 60k minimum wage, state governments are crying.

Sort our hunger first in Nigeria and then wa can have the conversation.

If you have N20M and you need to buy land and build a house, would you buy a flat build able land or you buy a wayerlogged land where you can sandfill?

N15m for Okada.

Upcomingdad67:
Almost everywhere in Ijawland need serious sandfilling, which is capital intensive before reasonable work can be carried out. So don't expect serious development there.


See wetin educated person dey talk . With the amount of allocation coming into the state. You still get mouth to talk this kind thing .

All because of your daily meal ticket . Continue

You need to work on your mental health. For real.

Paystack:
You guys are really slow.

Let me educate you... size of state or place doesn't =development or progress of the state or place.


Do you know Lagos is the smallest state in Nigeria yet the most developed?

Do you know Niger state is 30 times bigger than London but London is 50000 times richer than Niger?


Size of place doesn't matter if the people living there are not productive.

North has the largest states yet produce the largest beggars and poor people.

Why can't they use all of that plenty land to grow agriculture products?

Answer: only 1% of the land is fertile and only 0.5 of their population is productive

The issue with Bayelsa, nay Ijaw areas in the Niger Delta is the absence of proper habitable land. The terrain is mostly swamps and mangroves which without intensive capital expenditure will be largely uninhabitable. For example, take the East West Road, see the sections that passes through Ikwerreland, Ogoni land, Akwa Ibom etc and check the section that pass through bayelsa. The Bayelsa section is deplorable due to terrain.

Almost everywhere in Ijawland need serious sandfilling, which is capital intensive before reasonable work can be carried out. So don't expect serious development there.

Use Google map and zoom into Bayelsa and Ijaw parts of Rivers state and see how scanty there villages are. No amount of online revisionism can change what they are. It has never been about the size of bayelsa but the liveability.

Terrible Mistake.

GBTYO:
The ones in Onistha and Aba you ignored , it is the one in PH that is paining you.

So because Criminals run rampant in Onitsha and Aba, we should allow same in PHC?

Are you sure you're stable?

TheTravelingOne:
Lol. Never. I’m a California girl, I could never live in Oklahoma

I purposely picked Tulsa. I know alot of black Americans have this negative feel for Tulsa, i wanted to know if you're different. You guys seem to love Atlanta and Chicago.

Sorry about your husband, maybe he never really loved you. Seems you were only a means to an end for him. Shows how low people will go to get whatever they want. In the world today, alot of people lack integrity. But we cannot lose faith in humanity. I'd advise you cut your loss soonest and head back for the US. No matter, family will support you when everyone else can't (from what I know about African families though).

Funny how alot of Nigerians want out and you don't mind living here. This world is really unpredictable.

TheTravelingOne:
Yes of course I can. I will return to nothing but I can still return. Question is, so I want too. I have lived abroad for a long time now, spending in between in the US. Lived in Europe , Switzerland….&’yes I’m a black American woman. I am just a traveler. So who knows where I will end up, somewhere affordable though.

Relocate to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Its affordable enough.

Hehehehehe. Toyota Carina E of 1997 for 1.8M

The ultimate ladies car those days. Funny enough the car no pass 180k back den.

I thought he owned IBTC. I know Stanbic bank is South African. StanbicIBTC was a merger of both financial institutions.

At the end of the day, whatever forms of sexual molestation she suffered in captivity is nothing compared to her life. Life is truly a gift.

After renewing my subscription on June 6, shege banza!

Be like say I go date you. You get money.

oyeb15:
If she's 39 then am 25.

She will be like 49 or 54 years

Tonto finished secondary school in 2002. I know cos she was my cousins classmate in Sec school. Because of her beauty she was very popular right from secondary school.

She's 39. I should have fvcked her then. To her fvck her now no easy at all.

Whalis:
It was the cheating perpetuated against Ikwerres by Ijaws when they held sway in Rivers State. Opobo Nkoro no reach Rumueme community. Degema no reach Choba and just like that. Even the eleven LGA they claim put the population together it is not up to Emuoha and Obio Akpor LGA with true census.

Ofcourse I know all that. Im an Ikwerre, my Dad contested elections during the time of NRC & SDP when Babangida was the Military President.

There was nothing Ikwerre will post as election figures that the Ijaws of present Bayelsa will not counter with Bogus figures. They claimed that they were 8x more populated than Ikwerre + Etche + Ogoni + Ekpeye +:Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni combined. Only for Bayelsa to be created and their total population in 2006 was 1.5Million. Criminals.

I've told a story here of how an acquaintance told me how during the 2006 census, he single handedly filled forms for 10 families in Okpoama Brass, that they were advised to fill as many forms as they can, yet they were only 1.5M.

Simply use Google maps live and zoom into the riverine communities and see how scant they are. And they are comparing themselves with Ikwerre.
