This childish question of "what did you do with your allocation" has been overused.
If you believed money has been mismanaged, all you need do is
check the state's budget for verification and put forward your findings.

It is even more silly to ask such in the current dispensation.
Naira was devalued by more than 100% while the state's allocation was increased by about 30%.


This is not a defense of the governors, even if we agree that the governors are all thieves.
It is not the job of a thief to expose itself. The accuser should shoulder such responsibility.

What is the sense in comparing yourself to the worst examples? Is that how you have made progress in your life?

Why focus on projects instead of services and utilities delivered by government workers

Paraman:
Some of the statement by the minister was unnecessary, especially the part he asked what the governor's are doing with their allocation.

The governor's can't achieve meaningful things because of the high inflation, everything has gotten more expensive.

yarimo:
All PDP governors and that of the labour party Alex otti are all thieves claiming saint

Hopium:
As usual, they've turned this serious issue to PDP vs APC. They don't care so far they can type rubbish on nairaland threads to vent out their hatred for Tinubu and his government, because their failure was rejected at the polls.

Dolts. Don't start asking questions, abeg! Don't ask. You lots would leave your states to rots by your state governors then run to Kaduna, Rivers, Abuja, Lagos where the State government is working, then come online to bash the FG and even bash the government of your host states. Id!ots.

Inflation or not; Naira floating or not; Subsidy removal or not - What were these state governments doing before this administration? We've experienced massive wealth effect during Obasanjo's administration, what did these state governments do to increase/generate IGR, better the lives of their people, create jobs, attract foreign investments? During Yaradua, GEJ administration, how did they improve the lives their people? These are critical questions to ask. No be today they started getting FAAC. They've been receiving since 1999 - for 25 years! 25 foking years.

If they all worked hard like Lagos, Rivers, Abuja, Kaduna, Kano State governments over these years, we won't be exerting unnecessary pressure on a few states now. We could have had massive economy hubs spread throughout the country. Insecurity won't be worst like this. Chibuzor, Ade, and Yaro won't be migrating to Lagos to find jobs after schooling in Anambra, Osun, Jigawa because their states economy is thriving and they can easily find jobs there. Lagos won't be overcrowded. But yeah, let blame Tinubu for asking this critical questions.

It is a legitimate question.

You don't pay salaries or pension
You do very little infrastructure
Basic health centres are not funded
You don't do anything to encourage farming in your state (especially Southern Governors)
You do nothing to help fight insecurity in your state.

All people see are hilux, land cruisers, and a long entourage of officials running up down.

Most state governors are doing absolutely nothing. Many Commissioners don't even have anything substantial to do. Everything starts and ends at the Governor's office.

The Governors are completely left alone to loot while citizens focus 100% attention on the Federal government.

As long as that continues, nothing will change.

raumdeuter:


Yet some of the states despite increased allocation won't even pay 30k minimum wage and owe salaries

More of a defence than reply, don't let us forget that Venezuela didn't get there in one day, they went through this defence pattern along the way too. It is well with this country.

If the FG believes that allocations are being mismanaged, all it need do is
to investigate the state's budget and put forward its findings.
We want to see such reports not press release.

It is even more silly to ask such in the current dispensation.
Naira was devalued by more than 100% while the state's allocation was increased by about 30%.
How effective was such an allocation increase?

This is not a defense of the governors, even if we agree that the governors are all thieves.
It is not the job of a thief to expose itself. The accuser should shoulder such responsibility
and expose the thief. The FG should do its job and investigate alleged thieves, it is not too
much to ask for.

I have like 3 Apc supporters in my hood.

Because they didn't agree to vote for the parties and candidates you voted for, right? Many of you, Obi supporters are supposed to be living in North Korea.

So what we do with this information?
