BabaAduras: I don't want to go back and forth with you on this matter, Tinubu is the one to take the major blame.... |

NinjaMetahuman: If you know why businesses that don't pay salaries in dollars or import anything in dollars are shutting down then I don't need to explain much to you... |

mrrandomguy: VERY WELL SAID. AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, 80% OF CORRUPTION IN THIS COUNTRY IS PERPERTARTED BY STATE GOVTS. BUT EVERYBODY BLAMES ABUJA BECAUSE OF TRIBALISM. NOBODY WANTS TO HOLD THEIR OWN ETHNIC LEADERS ACCOUNTABLE. IT IS SO ANNOYING! 1 Like |

NairalandForumo: While I am not exonerating BAT nor anybody in government, the truth if we want desired change, we will forget tribal and political affiliations and start asking everyone at all levels of government how they are spending our commonwealth. That is the gospel truth. |

NairalandForumo:how is running business poorly related national budget? Are you just talking randomly as they pop into your head? |

NinjaMetahuman: If the running cost of a business becomes higher than the profit the company is headed for failure, if the running cost of a country becomes higher than the budget, the country is headed for failure.... Increase in budgetary allocations means the running cost of the country has increased, reason for the increase allocations, once running cost begins to surpass the budget then what happens? |

NairalandForumo: I started pushing this approach since the days of OBJ when he wasted $5b on Refineries revamp, $16b on fake Power Project and allowed Atiku to cheap-sell our industries to his friends and cronies after pump money into the industries in the name of revamping them. Corruption does not know tribe nor party and it is happening at all levels of government. Challenge all those in government (politicians and civil servants) starting from the Councillors. Ask them what they are doing with our commonwealth entrusted into their hands. Don't focus on the Presidency alone. Over 60% of our total revenue is going to States and LGAs, we should expect much more from them. |

BabaAduras: The question I am asking is did you call out your governors during GEJ's time for incompetence the way you are doing it now for Tinubu? |

NairalandForumo: Of course. Though Amosu (the then Ogun state governor) did very well in terms of infrastructure development, he was stealing workers salary. He was forcefully deducting money from workers pay in the name of Coop savings they never got and he refused to pay the leave allowances. We made noise, calling him thief to his face. He was challenged and was made to pay for his actions when he want to install his stooge at the end of his tenure. He never got his wish. Even the Senate seat he got was rigged for him. He is still not welcomed nor respected in Ogun State, just like OBJ. |

BabaAduras: Did you also blame Shettima for the abduction of the Chibok girls? |
Re: N5.108trn In 8 Months: Hardship Unabated In States Despite Huge Allocations by BabaAduras: 5:58pm On Feb 27 |
NairalandForumo: Of course, but I will not use the word "Blame". I would rather say I hold them (The Governors) "Accountable" because they are the Chief Security Officers for the States. That is why the Security Votes goes to them. |

kniks: As long as corruption prevails in Nigeria and there is no severe punishment for corruption, all attempts and policies to remove hardship or improve the lives of the people are bound to be exercises in futility. Most Governors on receiving humongous allocations will only be busy changing them into dollars for personal use or funding outrageous white elephants projects with the purpose of stealing. How do you preach kindness to a Tiger or gentleness to a He-Goat on heat? |
