As long as he will start from 1999, I say CARRYYYYY GO

Em sorry but during OBJ tenure as president there wasn't such a thing like terrorism.

What was en vogue was Oga Jona's illiterate boys making fools of themselves and OBJ dealt with them.

barcanista:
Well, I think some people just love to cause unnecessary problem.

Has it ever occur to you that 'trouble' is what some people know how to find?.

I don't think you will ever see or hear any christian say they want to transform a mosque into a church, nope! They won't' do that for fear that the mosque might harbor dark powers, rather, they will collect offering/tithes/sowing seed money from the poor and lobotomize masses and use it to build edifice as magnificent as the Tower of Babel!.

My take, this muslims should go and sit down and stop poking their nose where its not wanted!.

barcanista:
Chai Chai Chai.... And the worse is that there is no transparency in these spending. This madness have been going on since 1999. Buhari must run a transparent administration




PS: Virtually all 36 States also run secret system . Ask LASG to disclose details of Spending for instance...

Or rather we should ask GEJ to and those under him to give account how they spent this security allocation...

barcanista:
Why can't they build their own mosque elsewhere? Why propose to convert a church to a mosque?

Na trouble dem sabi find!.

anonimi:
Yes oh.

Aluta continua. Victoria ascerta!!!

Aluta continua justa costa victoria ascerta!

the RMAFC only execute whatever the NASS approves. It is usually reviewed every 5 or 8years if I'm not mistaken. They have no power to slash even if they want to. The bulk stops in the NASS

What a mess! So they approve their own salary! No wonder they are the most paid legislators in the Milky Way!.

Whynotthetruth:
1)Bureaucracy in government when you write petition...

2)This money is legal and can't be stopped with the drop of petition by you...

3)It is only by subtle violence (peaceful protest) that immediate result can be achieved...

The legality of the money can't be said to be legal when its damn too much! With all the legality their why haven't they passed a bill in increase the minimum wage to N50,000?

The truth is whether the money is legal or not, it is too much! Barca.nista already gave a lucid answer why petitioning the RMAFC won't work. So am all for he suggests!.

barcanista:
As long as I am concerned the so-called police permit is illegal. There is a supreme court judgement affirming that. The walk will be managed so as not to disrupt flow of traffic. The walk will also create attention and cause some other people to join. Ojota isn't too far from Alausa. As long as the protest isn't violent and well managed, we are good to go. People with media contact can help out. When we agree on a position, I will broadcast to my bbm and WA contact. We can also create twitter awareness

Okay.

PassingShot:
I don't like you? You must be funny really to equate not liking some of your ways (inconsistencies, if you like) to not liking you.

To say that one is ashamed of Ben Murray Bruce is an understatement given what he promised before they were sworn in. His statements on this allowance thing are very disheartening and hope-killing. On the other hand (and surprisingly), Dino has remained consistent.

I have always said it that it is pure IDIOCY for anyone to blindly side with any politician IF he is not directly benefitting from his/her largesse. The only thing we stand to gain from the politicians as a people is through good governance they provide. Once they fail in that, we will be stuupid to support them.

True that bro, true that!!!. They only thing these politicians owe us to delivering on election promises.... Dino still remains true as you said but Ben Bruce fall my hand, but I wasn't surprise anyway. Money can make a man sell even his own mother! Especially in a country like Naija!.

barcanista:
Though tokaka raised a good question (what next after the demand has been met?). My proposal is that we nominate from among ourselves some people that will be tasked to probe into the earnings of Federal legislators, come up with a proposal for a REAL cut that is commensurate with their job (not just "salary cut" and as a group we send it to the NASS for adoption (of course they won't adopt it). We follow it up with a protest! Calling for their step-down or adoption of the proposal.

#A proposal though

Better still, can't we petition the body responsible for drafting NASS salary? I believe the legislators will say they are not the ones fixing their salary and renumerations...

barcanista:
My brother, I suggested saturday because it is first and foremost a non working day for most of us, we can easily attract media attention since journalists are usually less busy on weekends and we won't just protest on that day and return hom. We will stay there to welcome legislators that will resume business on monday.

I suggest that we meet @Ojota by that 9am and March to Alausa in group.

Cc Joseph1832

Okay. What's the distance from Ojota to Alausa? I will truly hate for us to disrupt traffic flow with our march as such a thing can attract police attention and they with their stupidity may come and disband us saying we didn't obtain 'police permit or report' or whatever its called for the march!.

torkaka:
. . . . . . . . . .what's the point of rallying a crowd for a protest when you can rally a crowd and bring them back?

I believe its obviously stated! You rally a crowd to show your displeasure over matters that affects you negatively!.

ECOTERRORS:
This is where PDP and APC NASS members are one.

I will be there because we are fighting for a better Nigeria for our kids and not these politheifcians.

Seun, lalasticlala, put this on Fp before we march to your abode in Sango otta

Yes you are right!. When it comes to money and punny! They tend to think alike. Imagine how Ben Bruce before being sworn in was raining fire and brimstone only for him to come here and start saying NASS members are one and collective bla bla bla!.

MzMyColi, my twitter handle is @joseph1832ng

. . . . . . . . . . .Nigerians and their notice me kind of protest . . . . . . . . . . .well it is expected, nothing good can ever come out of a minion of the otuoke order . . . . . . . . . . .now tell me, what is the aim of the protest? . . . . . . . . . . .what happens after the protest? . . . . . . . . . . .as usual, protest and let be . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .you gather in the major cities, protest for a couple of days and go back to your lives . . . . . . . . . .instead of protesting, each one of you can go back to your constituencies and rally your constituents and make it clear to your national assembly representatives that any of them who gets involved in collecting or supporting the wardrobe bounty, such a person will face a recall from the national assembly . . . . . . . . . . . . . .go educate your constituents, tell them the power is still with them . . . . . . . . . . .you have the power of 'RECALL'

Have you ever heard these words "united we stand divided we fall?".

ECOTERRORS:
you are supposed to be listening to your Home Economics teacher in school but you are busy browsing. Drop your phone and concentrate.

We are fighting for your future

Madam terror! I trust you will be available?

Dollyak:
Get some wisdom for once, this isn't about one party. It's funny how you would rather defend politicians to the detriment of the fellow citizens. This is why Nigeria is still where it is.

My sister, shame no even let me fit quote the guy sef!.

Na dis kind of people wey get this mentality na dem dey cause problem for all of us here for this naija!.

MizMyColi:
I'm with you!

Please what's their handle, high time my twitter account experienced resurrection.

Okay. Will you be coming to Alausa also?.

Mynd44:
You fail to see how deep this is.

Each senator makes 30million per month in allowances
And earn about 2.4 million basic pay

What they will offer is to cut their salary by 50% which means their basic will be 1.2 but leave the allowance of 30 million.

You think all these was not looked at when the choice of senate president was being looked at? Y'all chose something else and now we have to start fighting

Bro I understand you're saying but I believe we showing our displeasure isn't just about this allowance, but about the high handedness and massive over spending on the NASS members.

barcanista:
I propose 7am-9am on Saturday and remain there till they heed to our demand. We have to get ourselves coordinated and know who and who will be joining the protest. Like I said, this is a fight for young people.

Contributions will be appreciated

Why not make it 9am-12noon. 7am seem too early putting into consideration Lagos traffic on Friday night.

Mynd44:
*sighs*
Y'all need to chill and get yourselves coordinated before you get yourselves arrested or shot at.

1. Wait for coordination before you go so you can go en mass. It has to be a joint movement across social media. There will be a protest at Unity Fountain, near Millennium Park in Abuja on Friday by 5pm to start plans.

2. The protest for Lagos has not been fixed yet so it will be soon I guess

3. The Lagos state house does not sit on weekends. You will just go there to loiter the place and make noise.

4. I heard one of Buhari's kid will be involved in Abuja at least. Not confirmed yet

5. Dino Melaye might show.

6. Calm yourselves down and get coordinated before you start jumping up and down.

7. I thought you people loved the idea of the Deputy speaker? Now that he has shown his colors you scream. Oh well, as usual we have to suffer the myopia of others. Nonsense.

In other words....hold on for further info and don't make plans alone

This is not the time to make such remarks bro. I see no reason whatsoever why that amount of money should be paid to NASS members when they already collect so much, without even doing squat!

barcanista:
I believe you are in Lagos. If you are I'm proposing Saturday June 20, for us to #OccupyLagos state House of Assembly. Those in other states could do likewise ie occupy their respective legislative houses. While those in Abuja occupy the National Assembly. Twitter "occupation" doesn't work for Nigeria. It makes us appear like cowards.

Okay. This saturday it is. What time should we convene there?.

barcanista:
Dear APC and PDP defenders, this I believe is a National and patriotic cause that affects all of us. We can put away our partisanship (for now) and tackle this before it is too late.

I agree. Name the place and time. Or should we bombard the facebook/twitter accounts of NASS members with our displeasure?.

Opinions should be welcomed!!!.

Now this is a man. This is a President, unlike the former one. Please probe the arms deal and probe pastor Oritsejafor aka Machine Gun Oritsejafor!.

Its high time PMB send his clear cut message that impunity and corruption will not be tolerated under his watch!.

By far, this is a welcome development. By let it not boil down to all words no action.

LouisVanGaal:
You a nuisance...

And you a pussy, pussy!!!.

OREMUSSANCTUS:

After spreading his mumu in every fora here in Nairaland, he has now decided to start spreading his cum!

I hope the thing no go dey as watery as Oga Jona, barcanista, ecoterrors, temitemi1 brain oh.

Thanks.

greggles:
I understand and I agree with your long-term solution. But my suggestion is mainly based on government's plan to be paying people N5,000 montly which to me doesn't really make much economic sense as this money goes into the drain just like that.

Also, the business empowerment programmes are policies being used in developed countries to boost job creation, it is also in place in States like Lagos and Anambra already, I am not suggesting a far-fetched objective, some states are already keying into it and its working. Even with electricity generation, some companies will grow but new ones will still be unable to start without funding, people will simply have more electricity to watch TV, business still needs money to startup

You must agree with me that Nigeria is now a money centred society where he who has money, is king of the ring!.

I will still tell you that any man who truly wants money will go ahead and get it either the easy way or the hard way. So I really don't think the way the country is now will actually make people sit at home and watch TV.

Kindly give me an inkling to such business empowerment program, the one that you said Lagos and Anambra are keying into.

dotcomnamename:
I did not say they request for token. I mean to be sent to me. I requested for it directly from my bank.

okay then. Perhaps you should go to the bank and find out from them.

Shey na swag we won chop!. Abeg let's start seeing moves on how to curb our problems...

Sai Baba!.

But he still have more swag than GEJ sha!.

dotcomnamename:
Can someone help with this:

INDEMNITY FOR RELEASE OF TOKEN TO THIRD PARTY

I got a form from GTBank to complete for Token. However, i don't understand the below question O!


---I have requested that the bank release the security token linked to my account number Bleep XXXXXX X Bleep, with the bank at my request to________________? Please to who?? . Whose address is_______________________. Which address please??


In the presence of name ____________... Presence of who please??

Don't be fooled. GTBank doesn't ask for token. Its a scam.

greggles:
What size of generator powers a welding machine? There are solar panel and inverter combinations that can handle that, though they might be more expensive and go beyond the funding cap of this programme. Unfortunately, you will agree with me that even the best of programmes cannot cater for all the problems 100%, however, this is a very laudable start that will bring excellent results if all the components are properly implemented

Bro it looks and sounds like SURE-P and YOUWIN! Giving one a 10 million Naira loan to start a business is outrightly going way over board.

I will still hold my ground and say the best way for government to empower Nigerians is to provide stable power supply, thereby empowering small businesses to grow and big business to grow bigger, the bigger the growth the more room for employment.

And also government should make sure that those business that grow exponentially pay good money to their workers, not rip them off like what we see happening today.

barcanista:
Sure-P is rubbish!

Oh so you know?!.

greggles:
You know this is more like a summary. In the real business plan, you have to include a section for self- power generation using solar panels and inverters and deep cycle batteries, you cannot be running generators for a startup business like this to be sustainable, that's why up to N10 million is made available so you can generate your own sustainable electricity. This is even more business for renewable energy suppliers to grow their businesses too and even encourage local renewal energy manufacturers

At the embolden, I really don't know which type of deep set battery can power a welding machine for 12 hours straight using solar power. Such machines are even power by diesel generators not even petrol generators.

I honestly don't feel solar power can provide readily unlimited power supply to power a good business, especially when that business run on heavy machinery!.

This is just my opinion.
