He just jokingly admitted that they are all thieves. From the federal to local governments.

We have LG autonomy on papers.
The reality on ground doesn't seems to agree .
Governors are still using their party loyalists to corner LG Fund.
What difference does it make.?

It's better to have one big thief than to have 774 thieves. There's so much one big thief can steal. And it will be easier to indict one big thief than it's to catch all 774 smaller thieves. Imagine 774 thieves milking Nigeria in addition to the hundreds of other thieves already in operation.

Are our leaders suppose to be thieves? There is no common sense here. Can an American politicians say this as a parable In their country? Oshimole was only trying to make us understand that Nigerian politicians are thieves which all of us already know

He has just declared looting of public treasury legal!

Local government is grassroot governance sbd its closer to people than state or federal government. With local government autonomy you can easily call on your chairman to fix road build schools care for the needy cos they are easily accessible.
Rhiis is what western world does which is fastracking the development of every local government

Oshey! Parable of the 774 Local government thieves.

Dear Mr intelligent, kindly tell us where this model has led to economic development in the world even a third world country as an example will be welcomed.

It will make the LGa chairmen billionaires 😂😂😂.Very soon our LGA chairmen will be listed on Forbes list of billionaires.

A thief whether big or small is unacceptable.Stop justifying nonsense in the same of logic and intelligence.Intelligence that can't bring Nigerian out of the endless dungeon of debt.

Una funny sha 😂😂😂😂😂

Lol....simpleton.

The LG chairmen are immuned to looting and bad governance, right?

Brainwashed buffoon.

Truth is fir meaningful development, you need disciplined,selfless and visionary leaders....structure of governance doesn't necessarily lead to development automatically
Who is this rascal? You better go back to school. Structure matters a lot. The one we have is being stifled at the grassroot. Nothing is going to change until that is fixed. Don't comment on things you don't understand. Charlatan.

So its all about stealing then, all these loans are collected for stealing. Shame on him.

Oshiomhole is saying the truth.

Rather than one thief in Abuja to steal all the money, let 774 thieves steal. But the difference is, it is easier to get to the 774 thieves and make him/her to vomit it (that is, when the masses are ready) than the one thief in Abuja.
U are wrong there and Oshomole is wrong too.
Can you catch 377 thieves? The answer is no
But you can catch 1 thief.

If you have 377 thieves do u know how many money they will steal combine.

In a society like ours that you have only one thief I believe people will like to do business in such a country but if you up to 377 thieves people will be scared to do business in such place.

Re: It’s Better To Have 774 Thieves In Nigeria Than Only One Big Thief – Oshiomhole by Amalekki: 12:18pm On Dec 03, 2024
Each local government will have 1 thief to deal with.

Let the change you desire start at your local govt. Clean up the system from your doorstep. LG allocation is the same & was getting mismanaged by 36 state governments.

Oshiomole was referring to Obasanjo who once said he has 774 stealing centres across the federation when he was in power and they were talking about Local government autonomy. Obasanjo said it then categorically that he didn't believe in local government that they were all thieves.
Re: It’s Better To Have 774 Thieves In Nigeria Than Only One Big Thief – Oshiomhole by Blazetrailer: 2:43pm On Dec 03, 2024
Lol...its so obvious you don't have an idea of what you are talking about. Angels from heaven will run the local governments for you, abi? Oponu
