■ Bottom line: politicians can join the protest, and so can Tinubu. They have legitimate grounds for protest
I have disputed that they have a right to protest as well. My point is it does not matter so long as their names are on the people's chopping block. undecided

∆ You are confusing protesting something to getting it. Same way u can protest that all officials resign (which will never happen), they can also be protesting things that won't happen
I am not mixing issues here at all. So long as the voters are the ones making a demand, it does not matter who among those being protested against protest. undecided

And yes, protesting alone is not the way to get results. I recommend the law be used conjunction in order to ensure all t's are crossed. undecided

Ahead of the planned nationwide protest in Nigeria over economic hardship, Minister of Works David Umahi has said that the South-East zone of Nigeria would not be part of any protest against President Bola Tinubu.
Umahi also stated that President Tinubu’s administration is making hard decisions to restore the country’s lost glory.

Does is it also occur to you that Obi conducted LG election when he was about leaving the seat of Governor and no opposition won in any LGA?

∆ Because United States' constitution is a people's constitution. Their constitution reads..."we the people"
Nigerian constitution was given by military with the purpose to serve the North interest, hence it cannot pass the test of time.
∆ US don't need much amendment cos they have a near perfect constitution. Nigeria operates a flawed constitution, hence we must continue to amend until we are ready to change the full constitution itself
1. So,because the Nigerian Constitution was handed not by the people but by the military, this is justification for the many tampering of the document, amendments that have only served to strip the people of their rights and powers? undecided

2. But, the 1998 Nigerian Constitution closely mirrors the Constitution --- without the many amendments since then --- closely mirror the Constitution of the United States. lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

∆ Constitutions are always being tampered with all over the world. That's why the Americans have the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th Amendments in their constitution.
In over 400 years, the Constitution of the United States has only been tampered with about 27 times. How many times has your government in Nigeria tampered with your Constitution? And how come each of those every times, the Nigerian people have been left with an even shorter end of the stick?! undecided

The Constitution is supposed to be the backbone of the democracy. If it is tampered with and the result of that tampering has been even great levels of corruption which is what exist today, does that not signal a failure in the system that may require a complete overhauling or repeal of all changes made to it? undecided

We are watching naively while the F.G tries to take more powers away from the second tier of government for themselves,we are being blinded by stupidity because they ( F.G) know we are stupid.
The second tier violated the Law when it installed itself as power and control over the LG which is by Law meant to be independent of both upper tiers. undecided

Yes, I too believe this is an attempt by FG to usurp power over LGs, a move equally against the Law which stipulates the LG be independent of both State and FG. undecided

Stop telling this lie! The Governors did not use the Constitution. Rather, they went against the Constitution in installing themselves as overlords over the LGs and funds belonging to the LGs. undecided

Do you change the Law everytime someone breaks the Law? obviously the answer to that should be no. So, why recommend the law be changed in this case?

Does it occur to you that the reason why elections are shoddy at the State level has to do with the fact that INEC, the superior commission to the State commission, has a track record that leaves a lot to be questioned and so cannot even be called on to ensure elections at the state level are done to the book? undecided

■ Since 1999 Nigeria has produced at least 300 governors, how many have been impeached? School me here
Did you miss the part where I clearly said you would need to impeach and then prosecute? undecided

2. About 6 have been impeached in the last 25 years, but none of them have been at the clear request of the Zombie electorates who actually have the power to make the request. undecided

Let me be clear here. It is not about how many have been impeached but what the Law says about impeachment. So long as the Law allows for it, it can be done. undecided

■ It's not about who agreed or disagreed, but it's a fact. Look around you and see the opposition winning guber elections in several states.
■ On the other hand, RECs are willing tools in the hands of governors. Check 98% of LGA elections, the governor's party wins everything. It just goes to show lack of credibility.
1. That is not what we are talking about here. undecided

2. Well, the Governors illegally usurped power over the LGs so clearly to embezzle LG funds as well, they would need to manipulate their way into controlling the elected LGs. However, note that the setup is an illegal one to begin with. And it makes no sense to attempt to resolve an illegality with another illegality. undecided

■ Is it not better...or you prefer the way governors trample on LGs and dictate how elections are conducted. They even decide which LG develops and which one doesn't!
Both options are terrible. Nigerians would rather have a system where the Governors are punished for usurping power and control, along with embezzling public funds. These are acts that violate the very Constitution. So, simply brushing that under the carpet to instead push power into the hands of FG creating a bigger power imbalance in the federation goes against democracy — it is illegal since the Constitution would need to be tampered with to make that happen. undecided

■ There’s already a law prohibiting their prosecution while in power, add that to their money chest, how would you remove them from power?
■ They controlled LGs, the monarchs, and state assemblies too and can’t be impeached. Until recently they controlled state judiciaries too.
■ This LG autonomy ruling is akin to a factory reset. Let’s give it 12 months.
There is no law prohibiting their impeachment and prosecution for these crimes. undecided

2. Yes, they can be removed from office. The only officials protected by an immunity clause in Nigeria are the President, the Vice president, the Governors, and the Deputy Governor. Even at that, in the case, there is evidence of crimes committed during the office, they can all be impeached and then prosecuted for said crimes. The fact that Judiciaries are controlled by them should not matter since the Senate is the office responsible for handling impeachments and they, senators and reps, can be recalled by the electorate.

3. It is no factory reset! LG autonomy is what currently exists and has been bastardized by the greed of the Governors. The recent ruling instead is a shift of illegal power from the Governors to the FG. Yes, it is illegal what the Governors have been doing. Prescribing to have FG directly control LGs is also illegal since it contravenes what is currently contained in the Constitution. What needs to change is not the Constitution but the handling of issues of illegality and embezzlement. undecided

■ The #1 cause of underdevelopment in Nigeria is the governors, it surprises me how anyone would want to support them. They have been stealing LG funds since 1999. Some have consistently refused to conduct elections, accusing them of not knowing what to do with funds, yet turning around to loot those funds. In 12 years governorship would be scrapped, they should getat It’s better to empower 774 people than 36
The Governors violated the Law of the Land. They illegally obstructed the functioning of LGs and embezzled public funds; In saner climes, all such governors would be removed from office, and prosecuted. But in Nigeria, no one seems to be calling for a common sense solution to all of that corruption and illegality. undecided

■ regionalism is still on the way, it will be rolled out before the expiration of this administration, Tinubu is a God sent to this country, but many are blind to see this, God bless Tinubu, God bless federal republic of Nigerian.
1. See how easily that rolls off your mind there. Do you know that in over 400 years of the existence of the United States, there have been only 27 constitutional amendments? But do you know how many times, in the last 25 years alone, Nigerians have tampered with their Constitution? Do you know who has benefitted the most each time the Constitution has been tampered with under the guise of amendments and do you know those who have suffered the most? I can tell you that the politicians have benefitted the most each time, and the spread of corruption to brought to check at all with any of them. undecided

2. Regionalism with the same set of politicians you have today(along with the new set out to get their own piece of the pie), right? Every which way you turn this, it seems Nigerians are going to continue to lose out. Yikes!😐😐😐😐😐
