Yea, even since 1999 no FG project in Lagos until Jonathan re-election campaign before he remembered the Lagos-Ibadan road. It’s obvious there were deliberate attempts to starve Lagos of infrastructure. Meanwhile they kept pouring money in Abuja building all manner of infrastructure. The current wave of infrastructure drive in rail and the coastal road projects has suddenly woken them up 😂

KennethOkonkwo:
Even na buhari did lagos-ibadan road

Your username is misleading.

You are not anywhere near smart.

When you want to test the waters and build sensitization, what groups would you use?

When they wanted to recall natasha, wasnt it an obscure group they used? When they wanted to start pushing seyi tunubu, wasnt it an obscure group they used....

Dey play

Zooposki:
They should make Lagos FCT. Abuja in the North, Lagos in the South. Federal government money developed Lagos. If they want PH, they should make Kano FCT too.

SmartyPants:
The problem is that you are not educated so you don't have the tools needed for this kind of discussion.

In order to declare any place the FCT, you will need to ammend the Constitution. This is not the same as recalling a senator... To recall a senator, you only need people from said senator's constituency, which is an area in Kogi.

Of course any such group emanating from such an area will be obscure Nationally. They don't need to be influential in any case, as their goal is to gather enough signatures NOT to build National consensus. You don't need National consensus to impeach a senator. This and your ridiculous Seyi Tinubu example cannot in any way be compared to canvassing for an act that requires a Constitutional ammendment.

In order to build National consensus for such an act, you would, first of all, make sure that any such parties advocating for whatever it is you want come from the regions to be affected or from a cross-section of regions. That means, in this particular instance, the groups must be from Rivers or Lagos or a group with national orientation.

By using an exclusively northern group as the trigger, you would immediately alienate those from the south who would correctly view it as an attempt to subjugate. Tinubu has nothing to gain from such. He already controls Lagos. Rivers is easily within his grasp. Only the north has something to gain from such federal expansionism. And if you read the statement with any modicum of comprehension, you would see that the reasons given clearly seek the benefit of the north only.

You see, you are not thinking straight. But wouldn't blame you much, you are naturally dumb so how can you know when you say something that makes no sense?

Nukilia:
Break the f****** country into regions with premiers

sucess001:
Ode. You rumbled without coherence.

There is something called testing the waters.

But since you lack deep thinking, i wont bother educating you.

SmartyPants:
I wouldn't expect you to find it coherent. Adult education is always there though. Good luck!

sucess001:
The problem with kids like yours is 5hat you revel in ignorance and ignorance.

All the best.

Kennitrust:
Can they be more than one capital in a country

femisplash:
As good as it might sound trying to democratize the FCT, it is far from being properly framed and a little too far from being logical and realistic. How reasonably practicable is it having three FCTs?. The operating word here is " federal" - meaning each region would be a host to the three arms of Government ( executive, legislative and judiciary). How possibly can we replicate three three National Assemblies, three Executives and three Supreme Courts?. Of all the three arms, the Supreme Court appears the most practicable, it kind of makes sense having Supreme Court each in Lagos, PH and Abuja, it definitely going to save lots of time and stress going all the way to Abuja for a final verdict.
I have heard Senior Advocates clamour for at least one magistrate court in each Local Government.
Several countries that practice multiple capitals did that by locating an arm of Government at separate locations. For instance, a particular city houses the executive capital (the seat of power), another city houses the legislative capital while a third city houses the judicial capital. It would therefore be more reasonable and better suited if Nigeria could replicate the same arrangement, if there will ever be a consideration at all. Lagos as the Legislative Capital, PH as the Judicial Capital while Abuja retains the Executive Capital.Otherwise, the most acceptable idea will be to give special status to both Lagos and PH while Abuja continue being the sole FCT.

Not even Enugu, but Rivers...Igbos don suffer ooo

Goke7:
That's the problem, we are too emotional as a people, it's obvious the Abuja move motive was never a pure one, but a land grabbing exercise under the pretense of a federation or equal access to all. It's all but a lie with the current agitations we are now seeing. Everything was done to make Abuja far better than Lagos, but alas, it has backfired. Now they want everything and both cities altogether

SmartyPants:
Share this thing you just typed with ChatGPT and ask it to rate your level of intelligence. Funny guy!

sucess001:
The fact that you need chatgpt to rate your intelligence....

SmartyPants:
Do what I said bro. You need to know that you are actually a world class Moro.n. That will help you sit up.

sucess001:
At least I am world class.

Your moronic ranking shows you are the dullest in your local vicinity.

Don't worry when I have time later I will do it for you and share the results here. You'll love it!

sucess001:
I like your boldness though. Wearing stewpidity like a badge of honor

AfriqueDuZuid:
No its 3 capitals not 4

SmartyPants:
I actually said i would let it go coz theres no need to humiliate you...only for you to still come back begging for it! You dey crase?

SmartyPants:
My papa does what? Let me guess you don't know about subject - verb agreement?

Night school will solve all this. Trust me. According to ChatGPT your IQ is likely less than 70. Do you know what that means?? It means you're barely more intelligent than a chimpanzee. Ranting on Nairaland won't change that o.


Such a dumbskull.

Chatgpt that is controlled by prompts.

You are dumber than you realise
Good luck!
