Who made a PDP man the chairman of that committee?

Can you now see the result?

Nobody cares if a request was put in for more time for a full response. The people there should have been fully grilled. This is taxpayer funds we are talking about, and these senators are meant to represent us. What rubbish!



Blocked by a PDP man



You must not have been to any of these 'saner climes' you talk about.
You resign when it's clear you're going to take a fall, and when your fall will harm your organisation.
If every official resigned after being summoned to a legislative panel, the US would have no chairman of the joint chief of staff, there would be no foreign secretaries etc.

He owes u a big gratitude 4 giving him this well deserved orientation.

on course

@EUROBOMBER
What a joke! with ur concluding comment it is obvious it is not d hausas that appropriate BORN 2 RULE MENTALITY on themselves, but even ur call that Buhari should hand over 2 an Ibo person revealed that u have already ascribed d born 2 rule mentality on them. 4 ur information d formula 4 gaining power in Nigeria start with building bridges across the Niger not quarreling every region and u expect them 2 support u. D earlier d Ibos realise this d better. Even in d last election d hausas held tenaciously 2 d few fragments of supporters 4rm south south and south east, they know how important it is 2 winning d soul of d people after d votes are counted.

@OP thank u 4 the exposit. It's very educative. I must confess u have taken Ebira history 2 d many Ebira sons and daughters who hitherto were lazy 2 research on this. Their will be no excuses on not knowing ur history with d claim that "I hardly visit home". Good Job. May Allah reward u abundantly. I am a proud Ebira guy.

This is a classical case of poverty of ideas. He erroneously thinks the uniform will take him 2 d next level, instead of his brain and how he equip or train it.

It is my honest believe that if we conduct a referendum on whether PMB should appoint his ministers now or at his own time, those in favour of PMB's position of waiting till d fullness of time will still win d day. I think he is doing d right thing. We actually voted him in 2 do things differently from d past administration and get a different result. We rally need to slow things down 2 catch these politifians in their own game. As we tarry a little on d NASS issue did it not reveal those who were in APC 4 their selfish interest only. I now see d wisdom in d idea of delaying ministerial appointments. It is good PMB work with d beauracrats then have an idea of whats on ground before inviting d ministers 4 help, then their hands will be tied 2 doing d needful only.

zendy:
Unfortunately, Kogi is classed as part of the 'North' and no international investor will step foot there. Your leaders are too busy amassing wealth to give a rats-a$$ about your mineral resources.

U got it all wrong, d international political-economy does not favour d development of some of these vital mineral since it will fasten our industrialization process. On d other hand just as d oil is found in one region and others benefit from it, so also iron and steel development would have benefited Nigeria first b4 kogi state. In that everybody will be contributing not begging 4 oil hand outs.
4 ur information d shortest way 4 Nigeria 2 join d league of industrialised nations is through d development of its solid minerals, which is abundant in d north. U know as much as I do that d west is not yet ready 2 have any other nation, particularly African, in their exclusive club of industrialised nations. U should know how they frustrate China and India.

bitter leaf is also very good as first aid 2 dress fresh wound from bleeding. It is like an iodine. Try it, very effective.

Flets:
I dont really get this. ..... 36 corrupt governors and CBN president make up the economic council?

What is the change about if you are retaining the status quo that never worked?

What are they supposed to advise on? ..... that the NLNG funds, ECA and SWF be shared?

What economic advise could come from lazy allocation seeking governors who cannot generate simple IGR for their states?, State governors that cannot pay salaries? Aregbesola, borno state governor etc are all economic advisers to the country now kwo?

What happened to technocrats who have been successful in their individual endeavours?

Are we headed forward or backward with this govt?... What is really Buhari's plan?

Like that is not enough, G7 will help us rebuild the LGs affected by Bokoharam insurgency and the service chiefs have prepared the military needs for handover and verification by G7 ........

Come on, is this man ok? All our internal problems are now hinging on G7 intervention.... Why then do we need a president?

Pls stop confusing yourself, Economic Council is a creation of d constitution and it's membership is also prescribed by the constitution. I beg u 2 stop using NL 2 disseminate ignorance. Tnx

AreaFada2:
Actually they had all the juicy jobs during GEJ's time too. Still wasn't enough for them. They can only have more now.

All d juicy jobs? like Finance minister Ngozi, CBN gov. Ameifule, chief of army staff Minimah, petroleum minister Allison Madueke, Secretary 2 d FGN Ayim, Nimasa Director, Aviation min Steller, etc. pls lets be real 4 once. I think d constitution has already provided guidance on how he should source his cabinet members.

opiloper:
I'm a constitutional lawyer i support wike

ur response puts doubt on ur claim of being a constitutional lawyer. if u are, d appropriate thing 2 do would have been 2 quote d relevant section of d constitution that supports Wike's action.

SLIDEwaxie:
his mandate was nullified...how does it still make him a governor?

e no concern me sha

I thought as much. Guess what? Nigerians always elevate their opinion and sentiments above facts as established by the statute or d constitution.

olabukola:
Prof better wake up already. Which kind of insult is this? PMB appointing your spokesperson. Well I don know if its right but to me it sounds weird.

Approval and appointment which do u think really happened. Anyway I don't think PMB will like 2 do PYO's job 4 him if not why nominate him as ur VP in d first place. However, I strongly believe d constitution has d answers 2 all this confusions and speculations. Grab a copy and read.

WhiZTiM:
At least the President has started appointing people into his cabinet... ...though mostly lower cadres.
....But... Including VP's spokesman? WTH! ........

I just have one question... What exactly are Osinbajo's powers?

Nigerians are very funny or should I say lazy in researching. I hope u are not expecting PMB or any other Nigerian 2 answer that 4 u. pls help yourself and grab a copy of d constitution, where it is well spelt out. Be kind enough 2 share it on Nairaland. No offense, Tnx.

Many Nigerians are so naive and gullible. they're praising wike 4 this shenanigans, which reminds me of IBB deception. How much is d worth of d SUV compared 2 what their pen may have rob off d treasury. I now see why people call wike thug.
Recovering River's loot Will only be meaningful and rewarding if it is done in line with d provisions of d law and following due process.
Wike is only beating round d bush because he know he has no guts 2 try them since he is also alleged 2 be involved in d looting of d state in d time past.

Taylor86:
God is ur strength my brother u've been duped

next time u'll confirm female goods and services b4 u purchase

fake chicks everywhere u go like MTN



look at one of the girls

she's laughing wen serious issue is on ground

Are u suggesting he has been sold china made goods?

EggovinMma:


Olodo na Olodo.
Whether the cut off mark is dropped or not.
Well, I go with Atiku's theory. The Education system in nigeria is a complete joke!

Reasonable comment 4rm a beautiful mind. Not as viewed by @ SeverusSnape.

SeverusSnape:
I'm not surprised the person asking for reduction of cut-off mark is from that part of the country. Most of them are products of Quota system, Including Buhari.

It's a pity.

I know u are entitle 2 ur opinion but such a bias and narrow view surprised me. D man who made d request and d Atiku that replied, as u can see are 4rm d same region. So if u rebuke d guy 4 his request it could have been reasonable 2 praise d Atiku's response that uphold excellence.

pls see @ EggovinMma 4 her beautiful comment.

I knew it is not one of those decamping stuff because Tinubu will make a minced meat out of his remaining political career if he dare attempt 2 cross carpet.

Catered4:
I laugh in Egbira. Infact I just showed my husband this. 1200 naira for a goat? In year 2015 or 1901? Even presently in sokoto, their chicken goes for 1800 naira upward. Olowo lo je adiye. Abeg, wey you? Bros show, my husband is interested...

Well done sister. U are a resourceful wife and wonderful mother. pls 4 ur correction it is Ebira not Egbira. whatever! I am enjoying every bit of ur biz adventure.

FarmTech:
..
The problem in the south when it comes to cows is tse tse fly. But I don't know it it's still a problem.

I am confused, at one point u emphatically said it's a problem as if u are an expert, then u concluded u don't know. Only on nairaland.

@op
I ran into this thread accidentally. I will like 2 know if u were able 2 source d two wheel tractor u were looking 4. pls reply via my email:ohinoyi@yahoo.com

ibnapine:
I did not see the name of any Benue man on this Committee. Particularly the Tiv people

Are u suggesting we form a transition committee where every ethnic nationalities in Nigeria will be represented? What a thought. That will be over 200 members. When will Nigerians know where 2 place ethnicity and religion in nation building.

Paultue:
The chairman and Tam- David West are too old and will not have something new or good to bring to the table of modern Nigeria... we are watching

Such comments are laughable. Nigeria is mixture infant, young, middle aged, old, very/too old and even d unborn. In a progressive society/nation everyone should be represented. If being too old is an automatic exclusion from national issues then d best will be 2 go for too young, who often lacks experience. I think we need all hands on deck.

misplaced priorities!

brownlord:
My friend keep mute, our judicial system is useless, like i said yesterday, even as buhari critics i will protest if the court had given any silly judgement against Buhari, the fact that the court could not give that judgement on a case challenging his eligibility and postpone it till after election for which the purpose of that case was to determine if the accused was qualified or not to run for election, their whatever judgement at this time is just useless.

The law was bend to entertain him so we must live with it for the next 4 years, that is if we will be given the chance to use the ballot.

I don't understand what u are driving @ because I remember d learned SAN Ezehkome was full of confidence in d case and d Judiciary when he told APC not 2 celebrate because the court can turn d case against them. What are u insinuating? that u know d judicial system more than him. We all know d wild goose chase was a deception in d first case. I salute d wisdom of d Judge for keeping it after d election but b4 swearing-in of d president elect. It's obvious the case lacks merit.

Gbawe:
Amaechi is being respectful. I like him a lot as he has not let the fact he controls the destinies of many and literally billions of dollars blind him from what Nigeria needs. Amaechi will go down in history as one of the champions of democracy and a pivotally brave figure who stood up to be counted when Nigeria needed to defeat an ultra-corrupt and hideously terrible leader who was on course to making Nigeria a failed State like Afghanistan, Somalia, Iraq et al.

like d saying goes, prophets are not always respected in their home town. Amaechi will not be d first hero not 2 be appreciated by his people. He is a political general of Rivers state. He has out-classed all d past governors of this state. He is a presidential material 4 d future.

djjoad:
A sponsored thread I guess, one of those ways the apc and amaechi spend money on PR to achieve a good reputation outside their primary constituency.
Let him settle his house before coming to appear saintly to us.

ur comment is disgusting. D rational thing 2 do b4 commenting is 2 ask if such projects exist. Yes they exist, I can personally testify 2 about 70% of d claims above. 4 ur information I am a PDP member and a non native of Rivers State who work and resides here. The OP is yet 2 add thousands of employed graduates such as 13000 teachers, medical doctors, university staff and lecturers, etc.
pls give honour 2 who honour is due. I appreciate this kind of post particularly 2 serve as a benchmark 4 d incoming government.

olatunji21:
Love him or Hate, i have absolute respect for Joseph Mbu, though he was atimes too overzealous but u just cant take that Loyalty away from him.. He's a very loyal servant, i think he would be needed in GMB govt... I just can't overlook him for the EFCC job, he's never afraid to step on toes...

As police officer his allegiance is 2 d constitution of Nigeria not GEJ or GMB. It's obvious U don't even know his duties on what bases are u going 2 access his performance objectively.

America and her cohorts should face front.lf they closed their eyes to the rigging that happened in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Niger during the presidential election, then they should go and die for calling for cancellation Rivers and Akwaibom gubernatorial elections.

If they like let them cancel the elections and redo it again one million times PDP will win with a wider margin.Udom is the choice of Akwalbom and Wike the choice of Rivers

see what was reported b4 misqouting them "We have seen the reports of violence and alleged irregularities, particularly in Rivers and Akwa Ibom states", the statement added, calling on aggrieved parties"to pursue their grievances peacefully in the judicial arena".

**grins** Revisionism at it's peak.Ishilove and co. frontpage biko. I wan talk something.
Kwara and Kogi belongs to the fulanis they fought for it and own everything including the yoruba vassal there. Any attempt to install an Oba will bring the wrath of the Sultanate upon them. Emirate Kwara is one reason why yorubas do not want this country to divide, they do not want to face the Fulanis wrath over that southernmost fulani emirate. Pure cowardice!. **LOLS**

Get ur fact right. Ebiras and Igallas were not yoruba decent neither was d Ebiras conquered by any other nation. Not even d fulanis.

4bobo:
One party system is not good. If again, apc turn to one party system like pdp, another strong opposition will spring up.

God forbid! We will do all humanly possible 2 sustain robust opposition, it is the best thing 4 our democracy. That's why I have been commending the PDP and GEJ 4 a good first at least this will give them soft landing. I will also want GMB to form a govt of national unity given PDP room in their govt. It's 4 d good of Nigeria. God bless Nigeria. Amin.
