MT:
Some times I wonder the quality of people who post on this Nairaland.

You want the FG to start jailing a sitting Governors who have guaranteed immunity from the constitution ?.

Get educated. Sit out this discourse. It is more than you.

What is hard for FG to do in this? If they can go out of their way to kill protesting citizens or disobey the court injunctions, why can't they go out of their way to do just THIS ONE that can better the nation? They are very unserious if they can't do this simple task. Citizens like you are simpletons who see how the FG can jail protesters, disobey court orders, etc and won't voice out, but they jailing sitting Governors if they are really ready to tackle corruption is a big deal to you. You don't really have sense Sha.

MamaOghenero:
The constitution says that local government affairs are in the hands of the state government as it is contained in the Residual List in the constitution but Drugnibu and his gang of political antelopes have turned everything upside down.

This is beyond your comprehension capacity. Kindly stick to your wailing career. Thanks

I was teaching my students Government. I gave them an assignment to describe as Aide to President Tinubu how would they ensure he wind the 2027 election?
1. Lobby all the 774 LGA chairmen to ensure they deliver votes for Mr President.
This piece is just one of the answers. Obviously, the LGA Chairmen don't have immunity and can be prosecuted for corruption. The President can summon all the 774 LGA chairmen in Nigeria and lobby them to ensure they deliver their LGAs for Mr President in 2027. Should any chairman object, them through the office of the Attorney General, any erring chairman can be prosecuted by EFCC while still in office and be jailed. The deputed Chairman who would be come the acting chairman. He would cooperate by force.

2. Change the current INEC chairman who is from the North.
Today rumour has it that Prof Mahmoud has died. Well whether that's true or not, for Tinubu not to make the same mistake as Jonathan who trusted the INEC chairman Prof jega from the North too much, then Tinubu must change or remove Prof Mahmoud with someone from the West that would favour Tinubu.

start with LGs in Akwa ibom and Etim Ekpo LGA,a particular individual and his family get over ten million naira from the council allocation every month,it had been like that for over 13 years

Final chapter of the GRV findings. If you ain’t intellectually sound, do not comment here. You gotta be objective. This is explosive 🧨

Grant local government chairmen immunity like governors to solve all dis wahala

Kindly shed more light. I don't follow. How do you solve problems with more problems?

Good one.
It's now up to the LGA chair persons to either obey their governors instructions and go to jail or to uphold the law. I see many sacrificial lambs in the near future( LGA persons) lol.

I wonder oo. If granted immunity many of the LGA chairmen will be like yaya Bello after their tenure hide for a while make all underground arrangements appear in court dish out some reasonable hundreds of millions from the loot and get release discharge and acquitted that's the kind of country we found ourselves what an irony. Abi I dey lie 🤷

Tinubu set the LG Chairmen free from the Governors shackles, but they still want to imprison the 3rd tier of government surreptitiously.

We no go gree

fnep2smooth:
Please start with Imo state, our local government office has not been open for months after the inauguration. Bushes everywhere no different from the usual TC chairmen period. (Ngor Okpala to be precise)

Good observation. Even Ohaji/Egbema

Amen o! I pray that works.
