You don't need to Tell us because NASS is a rubber stamp to the Executive Arm.

You can never oppose Tinubu on any issue.

That's the tragedy of Nigerian situation!

U can opposed him but you must have a concrete reason and facts to do so. Tinubu in most cases don't present what will not be visible and reasonable to majority in the house and Nigeria as a whole, reason it seems all his proposals are being rubber stamped.

Why do people put sentiments to everything?
Is LG autonomy not good?
Is Tax reform to adjust the ones of 1960 not ok?
For rivers, fubara started the war by attempt to impeached the speaker and later demolished the house? Militant threatened to blow the pipeline if the governor is impeached and fubara refused to condemned or caution them rather he said he will informed them when to act Imagine After he was called to the villa with elders twice by the president to resolve issues to no avail?

Then the president jut took action to save the state and oil installation because it's obvious he soon be impeached?? And people saying rubber stamped??

With this, Osun State will calm sharp sharp!
Anyway why I love my people is that we do think of consequences of our actions into the future before we act. Osun governor will never do anything to throwing the state to stand still no matter the party issues.

"I told you all Before, Someone is Power drunk.
How can an individual unilaterally declare a State of Emergency in Rivers State, Not only that, he told a democratically Elected Governor to step down and install Military. Same Military he told the whole world that he fought against. I can't Believe this. You are telling Rivers people that the Governorship Election they participated in is unclothed.
Nigerians, I hope you can see for yourself, broad daylight Authoritarian. This is no longer Democracy. We will stand against this Declaration and in 2027, we will make sure we correct our wrongs" - Mallam Nasir El Rufai.

#ifyoulikenogetsense

civilian took over as administrator and not military. or are u saying all retired military men in senate and governors are still military? more so, national assembly now servers in place of the state assembly

TONYE001:
The situation in Rivers and in the NE, which is worse? Which poses more threat to the integrity of our nation? Which poses more attack to the nation's economy?

How about the extended unrest in the SE? How many lives have been lost in recent past in the SEn states?

In all the above, were the governors suspended?

If you read some of my posts, you'd understand that I did not comment from an emotional position. I'm apolitical, I've since given up on the Nigerian electioneering process, I do not support any of the major players in this incident. I'm only worried about the legality of Tinibu's actions, honestly.

So, I ask again, Tinubu negated SUSPENDING a sitting governor in 2004, why has he done the same today? Was the constitution been reviewed in this regard in the years after 2004??

You get, yeah?

If the president feels there is a serious situation in the state, and as he claims, he had earlier made reconciliatory efforts but to no avail, a SOE won't be entirely out of place....even though priority wise, RVS is down the ladder. But SUSPENDING a sitting governor? Come on, sir; this is absolutely wrong.

It's a spade, let's all call it what it is - a spade.

fubara in the state as governor with emergency in place can not resolve the problem. more so, the president can never ever suspend him without checking for the legality during consultation. he had meetings with national assembly before they finally concluded, the point is , the emergency is because the governor is the main issue.

TONYE001:
So, if removing a sitting governor was illegal in 2004, why is it legal in 2025

people should remove sentiments. rivers situation is completely different from all previous situations that has lead to emergency rule.

leadership in rivers has serious crises for 2years. they cant be resolved, leaders interventions including presidential intervention did not work,

now the supreme court frozen state account, how do you want workers to get money to run government? lawmakers blocked the gate from governor to do the right thing and present budget, lawmaker commenced impeachment process, militant threatened to shutdown oil installations if governor is removed and even blew 2 already, so if you are the president will you allowed oil production to come down to zero before you take actions? let the administrator see if he can resolved the problems in 6months.

God1000:
We need this state of emergency in Benue state more than rivers, this is all politics and misplaced priority.

How can you suspend the governor and leave the tearaway in Abuja, Tinubu only blamed governor Fubara in his speech which is wrong

Tinubu no blame anyone, his statement were from supreme court pronouncements and the outcomes of the deliberations with fubara, Wike and the south south leadership in the 2 meetings he had with them.

Elders in rivers can't resolved the problem for 2 years and the house commenced impeachment proceedings. Militant to blow pipeline if fubara is impeached so what did you want FG to do?

mrvitalis:
That was before the supreme Court ruling

Jonathan declared state of emergency in brono yobe and another state the governors remained

The president have no constitutional right to remove the governor the military administrator should rule besides the governor

no political crises in the state u mentioned, it was insurgency. Rivers has government running problems. No money will go to state covers except they want to kill the workers and people of the state. So let him and Wike knows they caused the problems

nairavsdollars:
Like Obasa case, Tinubu was partisan from beginning to the end. I give up on Nigeria. I might relocate sef

Is Tinubu the supreme court?

Mrfixiit:
Tinubu is making a mistake, and no one close to him is telling him that

What mistake, supreme court has frozen the account of the state untill the governor do the right thing so how will the works be suffering for political crises. Now workers will be able to collect salaries and business will go on. If they can't resolve it,then Thier problem.

Moreso, Tinubu is not the first to declare state of emergency. Only Buhari did not.

adekolaelect:
Suspend Wike for not performing in his ministerial function or what? Was or is there any crisis in his fct where he is governing ? Many of you allow your emotion to control your Head. We told Fubara to caution his level of political competition fight . Now who lost ?

Thank God they were not given house arrest.

But to think of this, is this how God answers prayers. Some rivers politicians hve threatened to deal with some workers buy next week but now they are all suspended. Na war ooo. This life.

Kemistri3:
I thought a declaration of state of emergency has to be approved by the Senate?

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong?

Yes, he has sent to them for approval based on the security reports. Let's see what senate will do at least for other states fighting all the time to learn

Finquas:
Hahahahahahaaha.. it's official .. his 2027 ambition is now dead on arrival

In river state or Nigeria? Dey play. So you expected a proactive government to allow up to 10 pipeline vandalised before taking strong actions. Where are the so called elder statesmen in the State? Why is it difficult to resolve issues in that part? No one is talking. Now no salaries and allowances for all of them for 6 months and you talking of 2027.

rinzaugustine:
Peter Obi have always stood on the side of the common man daily struggle in Nigeria since beginning of his political career in 2002 but I have never seen tinubu stand on the side of the masses since the beginning of his career with Abiola SDP in 1992. He had always stood with the oppressing class of deeply corrupt politicians who have sworn that over their dead bodies would Nigeria work… imagine spending 667bn every year on olosho while ordinary people die daily from hunger, diseases, nationwide killings from terrorism etc …. so why would such kind of people who are tinubu crew want a change in Nigeria?

Meaning you don't ever know Tinubu and thats fine. like myself did not know or ever hear of obi name or his doings among the names we know while serving in Anambra during nbadinuju. obi is a trader and not known. check the interview he granted when he was in apga before he becoming a governor. he was invited to politics. no previous records of involvements with masses, tinubu is an activist even before June 12

but naturally you check people with their antecedents and records of their impactful and enduring legacies and achievements. tinubu is always with the masses.

PandoraObi:
I guess her small god rejected and she blaming Lagos and Tinubu for her bitter, grieves and bereavement, she couldn't get money from her trollop customers again. Lagos wasn't smelling here

The lady just followed Natasha strategy of shaking the table to get noticed. and for her the corner to get a big man as her sugar daddy. Good for her, they are requesting for her contacts now. Lolz

AMINDA:
A Tsunami is coming! Tinubu failed to consolidate on his victory and became too pompous. This is Nigeria, not Lagos. He failed to reconcile with the South and at the same time, began to antagonize the North despite tanking the economy and causing a cost of living crisis with his spontaneous fuel subsidy removal. Very poor strategy from someone who won with the least margin in the history of the country.

Meanwhile, his supporters online are jubilating and patting themselves on the back just because Buhari said he's still a member of the APC. Is "I am for everybody and I am for no-one" a joke to them? Buhari's political mantra is like Nigeria's diplomatic policy, "non-alignment". Besides, what is coming is bigger than Buhari.

We will all learn politics together.

Subsidy is gone, even if el-rufai or obi won in 2031, no free fuel and money for subsidy scam.

mohbadliveson:
Nigeria Will burn if that woman is arrested. Many Nigerians abroad are ready to come home and support her

Nothing will happen so long she herself has shown stubbornness and refused to follow senate rule. If she has reported the purported harassment just has it happens there will not be mixup, but after following Akpabio up and down to functions for years, then u suddenly remembered he toasted you.

ch214:
Any good news about peter obi and obidients sounds like fake news to you tribalistic supporters of tinubu.

The info is accurate. Na confirm authentic news.

so if he sees Trump means he has won election in 2027 or Trump will decide for the electorate.

Sonnobax15:
Freedom of speech,I can guarantee you...But freedom after speech,I can't guarantee you........

But one thing about this government is that they are so quick to fight and silient critics but they don't know want to do the right things...........

Make I no talk pass like this before Dem go begin blacklist me too

Anyone 18+ can say anything provided he or she is ready for the consequences of that action. She want to be known and made video, the video has made her viral so why worries of anything? You should expect both positive and negative outcomes anytime anyday, just pray the positive is much more than the negative outcomes.

Xisnin:
If there is no merger, Tinubu's second term is assured.
Having 3 party candidates gave Tinubu a narrow win in 2023, having 4 candidates
will guarantee a massive win.

If Elrufai maintains his stance, it would mean he is indirectly working for Tinubu as
a spoiler just like Kwankwaso did in Kano for unknown reward.

It will be surprising if el- Rufai is not working for Tinubu. His moves are so clear. To start with, who owns SDP. He just took over and controlling the party and the people he met there never said a world. We are happy to watch this game in HD

Ladiesdoctor:
-Elrufai has been a serial betrayer.
-It's only Atiku that can give him that answer.
-Obasanjo mentioned the midget in his book.
-His wife reminded their bigot child, if they were to be in Tinubu govt they wouldn't have seen any fault in it.
-The worst and wicked politician that has ever been in this country is Elrufai.
-Anyone that supports Elrufai is a fanatic

This el-rufai guy is cooking something. Why invitation to SDP? Why not merger to form a new party. He co founded APC and he left.

I still believe, jagaban remains the master strategist. SDP belongs to Tinubu any day anytime

DemonSlayer:
Trouble dey sleep, nyanga go wake am. EFCC food don set.

But is it a must for someone to just get popular by all means?

helinues:
First ever bawo?

Lolz, in Onitsha south they said. If that's true, then Obi and others didn't see any reason to do that

shortgun:
Ofcos, he's a one term president.
He knows, every sensible person know, only agbadorians believe Tinubu can still rig election in this country after what he put Nigerians through.

Oga wakeup, elections are concluded already, votes are just being counted and Tinubu still leading with wider margin

Daddyk87:
not taking your religion serious doesn't make one a liberal .
Nothing like liberal Muslims.
On the day of judgment you will asked about your kids, how you manage them.
That could make you or break you.
Yes you could marry a Christian or Jew woman provided your kids will be Muslims, but too dangerous to do. Most kids follow mama, because she always with them.
A couple practicing different religions is just nonsense

Why are people carry religion for head as if they or anyone have ever seen God before.
Talking about kids and the day of judgement is funny. Has anyone been judged before in your presence ?for you to know what will happen. How does that one concerns any other person. We came to this world single and will die single that is fact, every other things is them say them say.

chatinent:
If they are serious, they could really generate money from the app via adverts...if they could add more value that will encourage every Lagosian to join.

This people are visionary in reasoning. As the new tax bill will reduce Lagos income and other taxes, they quickly envision a productive moves.
Nice @ sanwo-olu. Other states will soon come to learn and copy it.

REDshouse:
He has finished his assignment so he went back to give details of a job well done to his principal... Tinubu na baba for politics ...

U can say that again!. Tinubu was giving a political lecture when he said how to win elections is by keeping and maintaining your strongholds while you depletes and reduces elections components of opponents strongholds.

I will not be surprised when el Rufai returns after elections

jmoore:
Same Buhari that said that Baboons and monkeys will be soaked in blood if he loses election.

Reno 0m0nkey na idi0t.

So who are the baboons and monkeys? It means he is never referring to the electorate or Nigerians but the monkeys.

Bobloco:
The excitement and euphoria of being sworn in as Nigeria's president overtook Tinubu’s reasoning, which led him to make that thoughtless statement: 'subsidy is gone.'

That thoughtless statement, followed by the floating of the naira, brought untold hardships on Nigerians, and this country will never recover from it.

Subsidy removal was supposed to be a gradual process, ensuring first that our refineries were operational and implementing measures to mitigate its effects on Nigerians.

There was no justification for the price of petrol to rise from below ₦200 to over ₦1,350 per liter in such a short time.

It was pure wickedness and draconian by the Tinubu regime in the way it handled the subsidy removal and floating of the naira.

If Dangote Refinery and other refineries were operational before the subsidy removal, the price of petrol wouldn't have gone beyond ₦400 per liter, and transportation costs, food prices, goods, and services wouldn’t have skyrocketed to the extent that they have

U mean, subsidy is gone, should have been pronounced in 2025?
Did you think Dangote would have commenced operations successfully if subsidy was not removed? Considering the cost of imported crude that takes more than 70% of his total crude.

Let's call a spade a spade, we face it once and now the price will be coming down till it get to ₦400 u said. My problem is what exactly is the Work of NNPC? Paying huge amount as staff overhead and remitting nothing

Kennitrust:
I don't really care about this hellrufi of a person but I stand with anyone and anything that will remove Tinubu from power



Tinubu has been defined as a man who took breads away from Nigerian and gave them stones.


The tax master most beautiful defeated by reasonable Nigerian

I think God has finally answered Nigeria yearnings for good governance and we can not go back to the old era of supporting the crude and Naira with borrowed monies.

It's better for Tinubu to continue on his reforms because if u give it to another person with trial and error, we will suffer and there will be nothing to show.

I love Tinubu polices, they are long overdue. We will be ok laslas soon

Truths9ja:
fubara impeachment move will never see the light of the day. Wike’s plans to impeach fubara has been exposed. Fubara will spend 8 years in government.

Humm, 8 years? Say u dey play Ni? Fubara no get any political followers to even win primary. It's just like the case of Ambode in Lagos

[quote author=donself9 post=134518589]naija used to the rescue, i cant just believe camry muscle toks we bought 2.3m 2012 is almost 10m now

i thought car was a liability, after 13yrs used you can sell your camry 09 for 5m, 6m

nigeria smh[/quote

Tinubu adding bother second and 3 Rd hand values to cars.

Anyway this is good as we must buy made on Nigeria cars

stanluiz:
Let fubara also be. Tinubu should tell that to wike.

Look at Obasa, A criminal that was impeached for financial fraud is now back as a speaker because the godfather said so.

Total lawlessness and disregard of the rule of law.

Let the Godfather of Rivers make peace, if they none, then it's unfortunate that no leaders in rivers. Moreso, supreme court has ruled.

Tinubu is wiser, he ensures that legal battle is not used to prolong matter.

[quote author=Iceberg3 post=134511205]Nonsense and babablu....

Imagine what a president is down with...what a local person...

I can bet that affairs of Lagos state is more,far more important to this bulaba than the affairs of the entire country... disappointing indeed [/quot

That is True leadership. That is what other states in Nigeria lacks and the reason they can't resolve issues. Tinubu is Asiwaju confirmed.

Every state has past leaders but they are not Asiwaju. Them dey Thier dey while their state catches fire to thier less concern.
