Wike can be liken to Mr President Trump, no nonsense man.

Let this man handle the security of the country and see how all this Islamist, Boko Haram, Fulani run away like a horse.

Though, a president shouldn't respect anything called militant but our utterances must still be guilded
who is the "our" that you are referring to?

what is "guilded"?

This is 18th century hospital. Fubara is a disgrace to Rivers people and humanity.

Imagine spending 10billion Naira to vuild this kind of village hospital.

Fubara must return our money. I condemn this hospital. I condemn it. I condemn it, I condemn.

I urge the House of Assembly to initiate a probe into this spending.

Are you truly this naive or just fooling around? How Fubara emerged as the Governor of Rivers State is the answer to all of your 100 questions.
if that is the case, then you are very qualified to answer my questions.

over to you:

1. Can you please tell me why the 27 lawmakers in question are loyal to Wike instead of the people of rivers state?

2. As at May 2024, at least 6 commissioners had resigned their appointments.

They were referred to as "Pro-Wike Commissioners". why were they referred to as such and why did they resign?

3. In December 2023, it was reported that Tinubu brokered a "peace deal" between Fubara and Wike. what was the purpose of the "peace deal"?

If you don’t need a car to carry out your duties, you might not put “Car” in your budget.
It is the lawmakers that will decide to compensate you with a car or not.

Wike as the Minister for FCT will need vehicles to transport workers and equipments for demolition or even to go warn owners of illegal structures.
As such, he can put “Vehicles” in his budget.

But the Chief Justice doesn’t need a car to preside over supreme court or administer oath of office to the president and VP.
As such, he/she might not put “Car” in his/her budget.

However, they can decide to put “Car” in their budget for personal needs(not expected but also not out of place).
The lawmakers will decide to strike it out or grant it as a compensation and privilege for holding that office.

In the case of lawmakers, they don’t need a car to discharge their duties in the house. But they can budget it for themselves and it will be granted by them as a form of compensation and privilege.

Nigeria is a tough neighbourhood
Nobody head correct

So no dey threaten anybody

Everybody get craze

Where your own end another person own start


Rivers state is minority Ijaw and he is right very significant oil lies outside Ijaw land in Rivers State

Ijaw people should never ethnicize this issue

It is not an Ijaw versus Ikwerre issue

Nothing will happen if Fubara is impeached.
From a political perspective looking at 2027 if they are going to impeach him the best time is now so that they can use the rest of the year to blow up and next year to clean up
how does all this justify him saying that he will blow up Nigeria?

This comes as GenCos, in a new letter to the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria (FRCN), disclosed the possibility of tariff increase following the imposition of new taxes on power companies.

by the way, if there have been several tariff increases for some time now, it means governments subsidy should have reduced over time.

It is the legislature that will decide the car type and the amount of money for cars of Judiciary, Executives, and themselves, the legislature.

The cars remain theirs after service. I already talked about retained privileges after leaving office e.g security entourages.

The legislature can decide to use whatever amount they like to buy cars. If you don’t see wisdom in it, you should contest to be a lawmaker so you can counter such decisions.

They can decide to buy cars for even a cleaner. It’s their decision to make.

Salaries and all are the basic provisions you receive once you’re being employed.

Again, you don’t get to decide which value they provide to enjoy what they enjoy. They can grant themselves enjoyment for doing nothing. The rationality behind that, I can’t comment.


I have repeated myself enough. If you repeat any of your questions again, I will ignore you.
Wow...that is amazing. where did you read that it is the job of the legislature to BUDGET cars or budget anything a t all for the executive and the judiciary as well as deciding which cars the executive and judiciary should buy or not buy?

since you are so knowledgeable about the functions of the arms of government, how is it the job of the legislature to BUDGET cars for other arms of government?

did you comprehend the questions I asked you?

1. How have civil servants, judicial officers, politicians in the legislative and executive arms receive these official cars since time immemorial? do they budget for these cars for themselves and determine which cars they want?

where and how did you answer the following:
3. since you are talking of similarities, what value does an individual need to add to get "certain levels" to be entitled to official car and driver?

b. is it the same or similar value that members of Lagos state HOA are adding to those they are supposed to serve?

c. whether in the civil service or corporate world, does a person need to get to a "certain level" before he or she is entitled to salaries, allowances and benefits?

d. if you say legislators serve the people, what value have they added to the people that makes deserve the privileges you say they enjoy?

4. I didnt say you mentioned anything about wives. if you read the article, you should have seen it mentioned.

how is it not unusual for a politician to include provision of cars for his wives in the budget of the state HOA?

if you say that the legislature can decide to buy cars for a cleaner, does that mean that the HOA can buy cars for the wives of Obasa?

1. The legislature makes these decisions. They can decide the exact car to buy for everyone.

b. The cars are not to be returned. They retain certain privileges after leaving office. This is why you see former governors, presidents, ministers, speakers still with security entourages alongside other retained privileges.

2. Difference and similarity has nothing to do with their budget.
A business can budget 7 billion naira for cars of their unit heads and top level executives.
The legislature can budget 7 billion naira for cars of law makers.

3. People in the corporate world and civil service don’t have to offer same value to get same benefits. Their functions differ.
Is law making in civil service not a different function from attracting and retaining customers in the corporate world?

Salaries, allowances and benefits are the most basic provisions whether in the civil service or corporate world.
The value of the salaries and all may differ, but you don’t need to climb up to a “certain level” before you’re entitled to receiving them.
