Supreme court ruled that no LGA without elected councils will get allocation but today, a whole State is getting allocation without an elected executive head

Validated:
Which budget is he operating? The same one the Supreme Corrupt Court directed CBN and AGF to withhold ?
To be honest I support that SoE but this is the same question I am asking. Which appropriation budget is the sole administrator working with?
Our constitution needs serious review

CNS got nothing on rivers state governor.
We are talking about the second biggest economy after Lagos in Nigeria o.
There's no money that the man would see within this 6 months that he hasn't seen as a CNS for 7 years.

There's money in politics. There's money in military contracts!

Let's not dive into an unnecessary arguement.

This is what happens with poor education.

The operative phrase is “state of emergency”. To save you having to go back to school to learn this with 10-15 yr olds, it means the normal rules don’t apply. That’s why for instance your freedom of movement can be restricted during a state of emergency. Abi was it not the same civilian democracies all over the world you like to report to where curfews were imposed during the covid emergency?

You didnt have a problem when 3 people were passing illegal budgets excluding the input and interests of 27 constituencies? maybe if you did we wouldnt have come to this.

Nigerian education is in a sorry state! . too many dumbasses!
With this reply,you can't make heaven,this reply is finish him.

The more you look, the less you see. Nigeria have never got it wrong this way . This Tinubu government is a disaster


ddippset:
grin

With each passing day you find yourself at a loss as to how to understand Nigeria..

You cannot release allocation to a democratically elected Governor who is working with a budget passed by 4 lawmakers under the logic that "those 4 lawmakers only represent 12 percent of the state"

But you can release allocation to a man who is not even from the state , appointed by the President, without even one single lawmaker to make appropriation.


I need someone to help me understand this..

Surely the Nigeria Constitution never could have contemplated this absurdity.

They have released 400 billion to him today.

So which joint committee sat on that?

Dey mumu your self.
bro supreme court order hold on the "local government money because the election for local government waa not conducted properly,thats different from another order for state government money budget which it order the governor to represent to the house of assembly...but under a state of emergency there is no house of assembly,no governor.. there allocation is released by the FG automatically..the only body the state administrator will av go present his working budget to is the national assembly... this money been released ia not even part of the atate budget..it belongs to the local government...the heads of administration who normally run the local government if no chairman is elected takes control..so it's normal .. although I think the state of emergency is just unnecessary.

Simple idea.
The president is in control of executive council of the federation.
All federal allocations to every states, local government areas, and federal parastatal are handled by the federal ministry of finance.
Ministry of finance is headed by the minister of finance.
Minister of finance is an appointy of the president

Supreme Court made an order for withholding of River state allocations due to the political brouhaha.
The political gladiators were the one being targeted by the supreme Court.
Not the people of River state.

Now that the gladiators are not in control of the state resources, it is very important to release the money to the administration appointed to run the state.
God help us

frankmoney:
Ok so why was it withheld if the prior reason was no budget was passed before the assembly? Is tinubu overruling the supreme court
Tinibu is a terrible president. He is now the Supreme Court. Separation of powers can't exist in Nigeria's democracy. In fact, Nigeria can't practice democracy.

Amumaigwe:
This means that it was Tinubu that withheld the Rivers State allocations not supreme Court. Since the Supreme Court did not make any counter order before the allocations were released, they have turned to a rubber stamp SC. Every arm of government is now reduced to rubber stamp.
Exactly the reason FG declared state of emergency otherwise they can never released the allocation to Fubara until he represented the budget and follow other things. Now the house of assembly want to impeached him which will make the process even longer before a new government can get the allocation. Now that the FG relies on extra ordinary means to be use in case of emergency, the money can be released to the new administrator since it's different from fubara lead administration

Thank you very much for this very simple breakdown.

Now we can all understand what that constitutional breach means.

Make them no pay salary for six months? This is not about budget, this is to keep the state running until the governor returns.
