And has it occur to your that the senators from his region are on the minority side ?
So because his senators are minority, that automatically makes it sensible for him to start cursing out the president for a bill that has barely even been heard on the floor?....

A senator makes a suggestion on the floor of the NASS, you dont even attack the senator for a second, rather you just jump and start attacking president (on the assumption that oga president will support the bill too when/if it gets to his desk)... and this kind of reasoning / behaviour is what you call wisdom?

If you are as educated as you want us to believe, it should have occur to you that what this people are doing is testing the waters.

One is in support while the others is against the idea. It was a deliberate plot to deceive people like you that it was not their plan all along.
All the northern leaders are in support of it ( some openly some in secret) including the president.
So what you're saying basically is that it is a sensible thing to make conclusions based on assumptions?

You said whathuh Repeat yourself You said the issue at hand dont concern buharihuh Pls say it again and again bro so its you the issue concernhuh Lord where did all apc members came fromhuh Bro are you sure you are a Nigeriahuh I doubt it.
A north eastern senator says they should set up an agency to rehabilitate repentant terrorists. Another north eastern senator from the same apc party vehemently opposed it, calling it a terrible idea. Then someone runs out and starts shouting buhari buhari buhari!.... How exactly is buhari involved in this at least for now? In criticising a president, is it a crime if its done with sound and sensible logic? I asked this question and someone said I was 'supporting buhari'. But then I ask, does opposing buhari necessarily entail that one must throw logic out the window? You may think for now that it just about buhari or apc or pdp, but this is exactly how people begin to lose it; this is justa reflection of the reasoning pattern of people.

To criticise a president, it's not mandatory that you must do so foolishly. And pointing out the foolish logic in your criticism does not automatically mean I'm supporting anybody. Receive sense!

The issue at hand does not concern buhari in any way, at least not yet. It's still an issue at the incipient stage involving the opinions of 2 north eastern senators and then you run out and start shouting buhari buhari buhari! Does opposing buhari entail that everyone must give up their sense?. Is it a crime if you criticise with sound logic?....

Like I said before, Nigeria's educational system needs urgent overhauling because of people churning out poor logic like yours everyday.

Bcoz he will sign the bill
If any such bill ever gets to his desk to be signed, it is because your senator, and other senators from your state and region supported it. A suggestion by one man cannot become a bill until your representatives support it. Go and attack your reps and senators first.

The law stops the state government. Only discos are given license to distribute electricity within a particular terrain.Any other person who does that does it illegally.
But the discos are currently owned by private consortiums and any serious state government had the right to purchase them when they were being sold.

Flyingngel:
My bad I mean to say that the state government generate while the federal government distribute our power .
Yeah but that's exactly what I said the first time, the FG owns the transmission network (national grid) so if a state like Akwa Ibom wants to distribute power from Ibom plant to Akwa Ibom only, it needs to disconnect from the national grid and build its own state transmission grid.

The FG isn't stopping any state from creating its own grid, rather the lack of finance and/or lack of forsight (from state governors) is.
PoliticsRe: FG Mulls Handover Of Power Distribution To Siemens by obailala(m): 7:00pm On Feb 20, 2020
Flyingngel:
At least I know of my state- Akwa Ibom state is capable of giving her population 100% uninterrupted power supply bearing in mind that Ibom power plant generate about 180% of power while the state need only 80%.But what happen? the federal government took over the generation and distribution thereby giving Akwa Ibom abt 25% of the power which is not enough.
Something doesn't add up in this your story. You mean the same FG that has privatized all its own power generating plants has seized and continued to hold 75% of Ibom plant (an Independent Power Plant)?

You need to go back and re-check this your story. The FG only has the transmission sector now, so why would FG hold 75% of an IPP?
PoliticsRe: FG Mulls Handover Of Power Distribution To Siemens by obailala(m): 3:58pm On Feb 20, 2020
Flyingngel:
Instead of them to remove power from exclusive list to concurrent list so that state government can generate and distribute their power, if they have excess they sell to the neighboring state.
I believe the current law doesnt stop the state governments from doing that. But Which state has the financial capacity to build a brand new transmission network? To disconnect from the national grid, the state needs to first build power generation and transmission infrastructure.

Always shifting the goalpost.

So it was the whites that voted in a disaster like buhari into office.

You blacks clamoured for independence, the same whites gave you independence, 50 years after, nothing to show except killings, bloodshed, corruption etc..

It was the whites that asked your greedy leaders and countrymen to steal your wealth and take them to foreign land.

This is the same blame game that the dullard in chief has been playing since his inception that has brought the country to it's knees

Nigerians and blacks in general can't rule animals let alone themselves

We keep doing same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.

You can't give what you don't have

So, blame your fellow greedy and self centered blacks and leave the whites alone
The red bit of your statement is a sad truth. Nigeria should be a great nation, but the last time we were truly great was when we were still ruled by whites; blacks all over the worlds have proven not to be able to organise and manage themselves.

Unfortunately we are ALL guilty of the ills you highlighted above, no one is left out. Shifting the blame to 'others' (just like you have done) seems to be our favourite pastime; one region accusing the other, one religion accusing the other, one societal class accusing the other, illiterates accusing literates and vice versa. This simply shows we haven't still learnt a thing.

I know you will never understand the SE, that's why you are talking this rubbish.

ANY POLITICIAN OF IGBO EXTRACTION WHO DOESN'T FIND A WAY TO ALIGN WITH IPOB HAS GOT NO ROOTS IN IGBOLAND.

Such a person will lose his roots. It's better to win your base and lose outside than win outside and lose inside.

Peter Obi is smart.
I agree with the OP. Obi is already loved in the east, he needs to focus more on winning other regions. If Obi gets the ticket to run in 2023, whether he attended this burial or not, he would still get full and undiluted support from Igbos and all IPOB members. Attending the burial has only given room for unnecessary campaign of calumny against him by other regions in future elections. For political expediency, he could have still aligned with ipob without physically being present on the front seat.

kilisi:
You are right he shouldn't have turned it into a tribal contest. However, you need to look at the comments of the OP on this thread to know that he took that picture to denigrate the Yoruba tribe as he even went ahead to claim that the governor of Ekiti state is not performing well because of a dirty police station - a federal agency- he has found within the state.

So he probably sensed the tribal bigotry in his post and then gave it back to him before he succeeds in having a field day in his tribalism.

So there is no fun in the thread to begin with because of the stain of tribal bigotry it carries.

And do well to take a look at the antecedents of the OP.

Finally, I know you're Yoruba from your previous posts but I for one will never allow the quest for approval make me describe my father's house with a left hand.

Have a nice day sir.
Thanks you very much for your explanations; permit me to point out 2 things here though:
(1) I'm not Yoruba - I've never mentioned or implied that in any single one of my posts in my 12 active years on this forum. That I typically lean to APC over PDP in political discussions doesn't automatically make me Yoruba abeg!
(2) I've had to go and read the OP again, nothing in the opening post on the thread referred to any tribe. The OP may be a tribal bigot in other threads (i don't know), but I still struggle to see how this opening post on this thread denigrates any tribe.

The OP said he saw a dirty police station; for starters, that police station in the OP bears the look of any standard police station across Nigeria (I couldn't see anything dirty about it). On the contrary, the only dirty thing on the thread seemed to be the OP's camera and everyone seemed to be making fun of just the camera, until the other fellow suddenly turned it to tribal fight. Nigerian youths really need to wake up and realise how silly these tribal fights are.

The bolden here!! Concluded there is no evidence means they don't have to defend.
Hence why I posed: WHAT IF SUSPECT RELATIVES IDENTIFY THEM FROM THE PICTURE?

You jumped the gun here.
Lol... I jumped no gun. I stand by what I said before, nothing tangible from the picture as it is currently stands, ties the picture to efcc; and that is the only reason the efcc can easily deny it. Funny how people come up with these weak arguments and then wonder why the court throws out their cases (and they begin to blame buhari).

You asked "what if a suspect's family identifies the picture"?... But that is only an assumption, not reality. Until that assumption becomes reality (i.e. until someone corroborates the picture or brings further evidence), the fact is that there is nothing tangible about that picture as it currently stands that ties it to efcc or implicates efcc. This logic shouldn't really be too difficult to grasp so I wonder why you dont get it.

I am saying you are also jumping the gun by saying it doesn't tie to EFCC when there is also nothing to prove that assertion.

You are doing that which you are accusing others of doing. Well, it's up to the suspects in the picture to tell their story. Till then, cheers.
Wonderful!! Please point out where I made a conclusion that it wasn't efcc office? English must truly be one hell of a complex language for you just as you admitted earlier...

I would never fall for that trap of making conclusions on the basis of scanty info, that's exactly what I'm preaching against on this thread.

I said there wasnt any evidence from that picture to prove it was the efcc office, and that is the reason efcc would be able to deny it easily. How exactly did you misinterpret that simple statement to be "it cannot be efcc office"?

Oga just try and disabuse your mind; you initially quoted me with a flawed mindset thinking you were here to argue with a person 'defending' efcc. No, I was only defending common sense.
