God bless Governor Fubara for now owing workers and executing project here and there despite the challenges.
It was also noted that fubara never borrowed for the 2 years as Governor.

For those politicians believing that only to embezzled public fund is their right, remember Tony Anenin, remember Adedibu, remember all old politicians who are no more.

None of you will last the next 50 years, your time will surely come.

Shalom.

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.
Supreme Court gave an order to AGF and CBN and gave reasons. The reasons have been overridden by turn of events legally supported therefore the order is automatically vacated. It doesn't require applying to supreme Court for vacation of the order. Do you think that if Tinubu withheld the funds, fubara, Atiku, Obi, PDP etc would have invited the whole world. We should always reason and reduce biase.

It does not work like that. The court has to approve that. A president can't assume his actions have overridden the supreme court. Does it even connect to you?

Apply to the court. It is that simple. The president did not because they know they are breaking the law all through.

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.
Welcome to the JUNGLE

Strategy in place to reverse the wage increases by Fubara, pity the pensioners who were ignored for the last 8 years. Fubara wanted to rehabilitate the portharcourt Zoe and the state radio service just like he did to the fire service , all that ii pipe dream now.
Hope he enjoys his stay in Bayelsa.

Without appropriation is that what d supreme court said.can d president override d supreme court?nigeria is a joke.

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!
SYFM!where is "There shall be sole administrator to govern state spelt out on section 305 in d constitution"?

What has constitution got to do with appropriation?

Even The military of IBB, Abacha worked with budgets..

Make una use una heads na.

grin
Budget and spending is backed by what. ? "The Law and constitution. Which says the Governor must present to the house"

During State of Emergency, the President wields some crazy powers.

Try and read and educate youself.

If I were you , i will take time to google and check Presdential Possibilities during a State of Emergency instead of arguing like a blind man and an extremely ignorant person.

Separate Knowledge from the position u support and read fact so u dnt d1e ignorant with empty head.

Emergency rule gives a president broad powers as may be required to restore normalcy that is why it has to be sanctioned by the national assembly.

You people don’t seem to understand the implication or definition of the word “emergency”. A 14 month stalemate between the governor and the house preventing normal functioning of government and threat of impeachment leading to breakdown of law and order and economic sabotage is the emergency. In which case the source of the emergency ( the governor and the house) needs to be temporarily taken out to douse tensions.

Lesson: Don’t put yourself in a place where they can declare emergency rule on you. Emergency by definition means the suspension of normal operations. If you are the cause of the emergency then you can be suspended…..until decided otherwise by the Supreme Court.

“The President shall immediately after the publication, transmit copies of the Official -Gazette of the Government of the Federation containing the proclamation including the details of the emergency. to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, each of whom shall forthwith convene or arrange for a meeting of the House of which he is President or Speaker, as the case may be, to consider the situation and decide whether or not to pass a resolution approving the Proclamation.”

This is just the problem I keep having with you people.

You act like some robots who can't even reason proactively for yourselves..

All I keep hearing is "during emergency rule the President wields crazy powers"

Think out of that empty box in your head for a second and ask yourself why any leaders should have crazy or extraordinary powers under any guise in this 21st century.?

Little kids in China and America are reasoning and making progress in Inventions, Philosophy, Governance while old old men in Nigeria are still stuck in their old ways..

Shame on you!


No human leader anywhere in the world should possess "crazy" powers under any guise.

Not in this 21st century.

Shame on you and the chronic ignorance. In an attempt to act smart u want to think outside the box of Law. I wish that is how it works, constitution would be changing per second all in the name of 'silly' out of the box thinking. You actually acted but could not conclude the smart part.

Again before you droll with spits, Go and read,

Emergency Act is enshrined in every constitution in the world. It does not matter wether you like or hate who the power resides with.

The people who wrote the consitution, recognizes how powerful that power is and the check and balance are the same thing needed to IMPEACH A SITTING PRESIDENT.

2/3rd REP, 2/3rd SENATE

That is why there has to be agreement with the other arms of Government. Instead of u crying , just blame the Senate and House of Rep that endorsed it.
