Now That The Allocations To States Had Increased by Sunmolar(op):
The need to check monthly expenditures of states governors cannot be overemphasized...now that some states are receiving over #20bn in allocations monthly, we don't have to wait till 4yrs to see progress made in term of infrastructure, economy and welfare of the citizens.
If a governor receives #20bn monthly... Contracts awarded cannot gulp #250million daily... because I've not seen a company in Nigeria that will spend #200million everyday for a month. So there's need for restraint and confrontations from the populace on how their monies is been expended..... enough is enough of stupidity

Checks and balances with oversight cannot be overemphasized.

Every 6 months, every state should publish how the money was spent.

There is no bigger corruption than giving an individual 20 billion naira and not asking for expenditure account.

If this Government is really not corrupt, they should tell Governors to voluntarily publish these information for their states.

They should not be forced. That way Nigerians can see which governors are transparent and which ones are not.

The governors are seating idly and watching Tinubu systematically set the people against them
First he destroyed the economy and put the blame on the governors as not doing enough, he passed the bulk of palliative to them ,meanwhile he did not give them the amount he pledged to give,again he has indicated that if state police fails it is the governor, now his announcing increment in allocation with emphasis as if the allocation has significantly increased ,if those allocation are converted to dollars at todays rates ,the allocation will not be as fantastic as Tinubu boys are claiming, the value of what it can execute has greatly reduced, the savings the governor are likely to gain is the difference from salary that have remained stagnant despite the general rise in prices
Tinubu is just looking to divert attention from himself, and he is the achietect of the problems
He should rethink his monetary and fiscal policies

grin. See propaganda grin

What we need in Nigeria is not to increase allocation by 100% while inflation is moving at 200%, that's a waste of time.

Reduce fuel prices
Fix insecurity
Brind down FX rates

If you cannot do these, the governors cannot perform, stop sabotaging the governors.

Do u think the value and purchase power of 10k in GEJ era is same with buhari era, or 20k in buhari era is same with Tinubu era?

Wetin concern Nigerians with their state governors? All blames must be shifted on the presidency .

Before the last election, I created several threads advising Nigerians to let us focus more about our Senators, House of reps and state assembly members, they said hell No, those are irrelevant.

Sound Senate, state assembly would turn down any bills from the president which doesn't make sense, they can even impeach himself, same as state assembly as governor.

Winning a presidency is not something that can happen in one election circle, it's a decade process. The journey must start from the constituency

Yes, especially when all police and army are in control of security but they sit around while terrorists kidnap entire schools and entire communities.

Especially when the presidency controls monetary policy which has been used to cause heavy inflation, making a nonsense of the state economic plans.

We must all blame the druggie in Chief, he should stop using propaganda to set up trouble everywhere.

Do you want to receive your own allocation from federal government?

If leaders are transparent and sincere with the electorate, purchasing power wouldn't be an issue, the effect can either be geometric or arithmetic increase... To every action there's equal and opposite reaction.

Do you still want to live in the past?
