I'm just afraid for GMB. He may end up being kicked out because these politicians are veeeery selfish. I foresee a gang up, a serious sabotage or an assassination.


God help the General.
I feel so too

Why would exgovernors collect pension when most of them still hold other political positions?

And the usual pandering continues. This is a law passed by the state house of assembly. This law can only be changed by the men that passed it. Buhari needs to chill and stop feeding on the ignorance of the Nigerian masses.
I dont think he is feeding on the ignorance of Nigerians, rather I think he himself is ignorant and still reasons like a military dictator. At the rate he is going, he will make history as the first president of Nigeria to be impeached.

Buhari will end up achieveing nothing...... quote me in 4 years.

Because he talks too much and does not know what it takes to achieve success....very soon he will start denying all he said.

Ode, that was Keyamo talking. He corrected Buhari by saying he would need to persuade the people involved.

Olodo!!! Please read below

he was appealing to them that it should be changed.

Very good move...after stealing the states dry they still want pension..I think they should be granted pension on one condition...that is if the governors do not steal a dime from the state treasury...

Did you read that he will persuade and encourage the states to repeal the laws?

Persuasion and encouragement? That's all he can do. Surely you will agree that this is going to be very difficult to achieve, I wonder what he will tell the likes of Fashola, Akpabio and Tinubu to give up their juicy after-office allowances.

Dont worry, National Assembly will teach him democracy. Buhari is too daft to be a democratic president. I have said this time without numbers.

For you to be a Buhari follower, you need to be either a poor educated fellow, or an illiterate dude. Out of your frustration, the only thing that might make sense to you is CHANGE.

Buhari should please soft pedal on this campaign. You need the cooperation of the 36states governors. You will equally need another law to counter all this but you know you only have 4years for your first tenure and this is very short to meddle with all this corruption that have been institutionalized.


Really?

With all respect, you do not need to say things you know nothing about. Sure it's a law passed by the state of assembly, and the present state of assembly members can change it, not the men that passed it...

Who is attempting to be clever when he in fact is not if not you?

So, the title carries more weight than the body of the news?

I think I have given you the attention you needed already. You're not worth further attention.

Keyamo mentioned the issue of persuasion. Stop putting this man in the messiah category. Four years down the line, these monies will still be paid the the ex-govs. Buhari should stop pandering to us.

Re: No Pension For Ex Governors - Buhari ( Vanguard) by Kelly32: 8:29am On Apr 15, 2015
Very Good move. But however like keyamo said, moral suasion is the key and to add, He should first slash drastically the financial waste in the presidency like the cost for feeding. Only in this way can he show himself as leading by example and can responsibly employ moral suasion.
Re: No Pension For Ex Governors - Buhari ( Vanguard) by tomakint: 8:29am On Apr 15, 2015
Wrong move General..... starting from N40 per litre on PMS and now this suggestion, I think the Genera needs to softpedal on this sensitive issue. Firstly, this mooted idea can never fly and if by moral suasion it did, it will only breed agressive and sophisticated corruption from the Governors knowing fully well that the cushion effect of pension has been scrapped. I think the General needs to start with ex-Presidents first and should beam his spotlights on LSHA's largeses on ex-lawmakers.

I agree it is a good thing but have we asked ourselves whether the president has CONSTITUTIONAL authority over these matters? If the answer is NO, then Buhari is simply yearning dust like the DoroDullard that he was, is & will always be.

He should be talking realistically of PERSUADING the state houses of assembly not to approve such pensions.

We are in a democracy not a military DICTATORSHIP!
Haters are liable to die young. Seems you have limited time to spend,better do something worthwhile with it than to keep hating the beloved of the masses.

Buhari is still receiving pensions as ex head of state.
To think that he even got there through a coup.
Re: No Pension For Ex Governors - Buhari ( Vanguard) by Nobody: 8:31am On Apr 15, 2015
It is like Mr Buhari is ignorant of what is ahead of him. He has no power whatsoever to repeal the laws that makes for pension for Governors(perpetrated by most APC Govs and ex). Let me remind him that his party and National chairman endorse the pension package because they are beneficiaries. I laugh at this man.

You strike an iron when it is red hot.
The time for the radical changes is now. He will ride on the popularity he has with the people.
He can soft pedal after the 1st year.
