Why is he lamenting instead of fixing the issue as a politician in government?

The issue of paying political office holders too much money for doing nothing while civil servants are paid peanuts? How is a primary school teacher's total package compared to a local government councillor's today compared to the first republic?

[quote author=NLCreator post=126854133]Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.

There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.

Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.

The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.

While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.

“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.

“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.

“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”

Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.

Journalist: how do you intend to engage members of your party who are members of the house, so that they can stand different.......?

Which is tantamount to waste of taxpayers money.

The Minister that's lamenting, where are his own kids?? 98% of the children of the political elite don't study in Nigeria. Why would those scholars come back? Are there any juicy jobs waiting for them?? I know many people who studied abroad and couldn't secure a job after returning to Nigeria. Scholarships is even the cheapest way to JAPA as you aren't sponsoring yourself.

Akano5:
Why would they return??

Return kwa😂😂😂

You dey mind the clown?

Burgerlomo:
Una wan make den return to come collect 70k as salary, that's if the job dey sef.🤣

Who wan dash them 70k job?

So in other words you don't wana give scholarships again? What do ordinary nigerians gain from their government?

Truth be told, some of us who studied abroad and returned are regretting the decision to not stay back!

It's such a hell-hole here!

Omo

🤣

bestman09:
I personally know of a man that sent his 2 son's to study abroad and after there graduation, they returned briefly and went back and have refused to return back again to manage their father's businesses and properties! It is over 10 years now, both married to foreigners and they are now telling their father to give out his properties to charities as they don't need them, his only sons o.

See this one sha
If na you, you go return?

Make research on why they are not returning. Same thing the mumu rep that's sponsoring the bill seeking for a jail term for people that do not vote should do. Make research on why people aren't coming out to vote and do the needful. Simple

Return where I beg?

if they return, you ministers and governors, and legislators and people in government will not let them flourish on merit, they will work under one useless and dumb director that is son or daughter or descendant of one sausi lamido, akpabio, tinubu, atiku, uzor kalu. SOme of them will not get promotion on merit because descendant of david mark or saraki or tambuwal want the same position. What are they coming back to do actually, come back to operate in a system of quota. Where u can do promotion exams score 88% but u wont be selected because the principle of federal character has to consider someone that scored 45% from zamfara.

Return where? Even the 15% that returned are still undergoing deliverance in their churches. They claimed that na juju dem take bring them come home.

I can't say I blame them

Benjaniblinks:
return to do what?
