I really don't understand some of you o. I am partisan(Yes) but my loyalty is FIRST to Nigeria before any other group/Association. Hence, sometimes(and when necessary) I create apolitical threads to bring up issues that affect us as a people. Shey na everytime person go de wail ni?

@Hinwazaka and @Chukwudi44 are worthy comrade irrespective of their position on some Subject......Just like you

malton:
Na so, brother. I do not at all doubt where your loyalty lies. My concern is, why do you sometimes rock the same boat as those two I've mentioned? Wailing is what makes politics worthwhile, only I don't understand at all why someone should resort to blind 'followership' all in a bid to spite the opposition.
That said, I'm waiting for a day when you'll write to the PDP laying down the 'should and shouldn'ts' of being the opposite. Some people, especially on here, are way too bitter to make sense!
I admire your strength!

TonyeBarcanista:
Honestly, I never knew you exist and I never mentioned you. You can keep your trust to your picket my friend or take it elsewhere.

scrap the senate

TonyeBarcanista:
Do members of the National Assembly still believe that Nigerians are fools? Even if they think we are, must they insult us by rubbing it on us?

On Wednesday, Nov 4, 2015, I was watching the Senate's planery when the issue of the rising rate of unemployment was raised by Senator Bassey Akpan with a motion “to curb the soaring rate of unemployment in Nigeria.” Was the motion meant to impress Nigerians or to deceive us? Are they really sincere?

NASS Members Also Part of The Problem
The Senators and their House of Representatives counterpart are part of the problem facing this country. They are a contributing force to our unemployment challenge. How else can one justify the fact that these people allocates N10billion and N120billion just to run themselves monthly and annually respectively? This sum is not only ridiculous but insulting when you even consider that the people that makes up the National Assembly are just 469 legislators and few Civil servants of the Nationaly Assembly Civil Service Commission that are not more than the population civil servants in two local government in Lagos state. More painful is the fact that the civil servants despite their little population are paid 'peanuts' compared to the Senators and Representatives.


They Earn More Than States Though They Have No Responsibility
This is the National Assembly that has very few members and ZERO capital project to execute but receives more allocation than states that has lots of responsibilities to attend to. For instance, Lagos with so much responsibility get approximately N7billion monthly, Kano get N4.8billion, Kogi N3.1billion, Ekiti N2billion. In fact, the NASS is even competing with Rivers state, an oil producing state that earns about N10billion monthly and Akwa Ibom that earns N11 billion monthly. These states have to share their allocations with their LGAs, pensioners, and all the civil and public servants in the state. These states still have additional responsibility of executing capital projects. Why then should we clap for the NASS? Funny enough, the NASS get more money than all oil producing states except Akwa Ibom and Rivers that they compete with.

If They Are Really Sincere...
Sincerely, if the National Assembly members are truly concerned with the rising spate of unemployment, they would simply cut down their immoral N10 billion monthly earning by 50% and establish empowerment fund where they'll channel 50% of what they currently earn I.e N5billion/month. These funds will be executed in ways that will create jobs, promote job creation in the society, and will be supervised by the NASS. This is a means to show their sincerity, not the mockery of a rhetoric motion that is aimed at mocking Nigeria youths and scoring cheap political points that they aim to use to exploit the masses in the next election.

Let me also remind us that this is not the first time motions like this will be moved in both chambers of the National Assembly. This National Assembly members have deliberately refused to cut their unholy allocation to create room for more funds for Nigerians despite several cries by members of the public. Even people like Ben Bruce that made lot of noise on twitter before his inauguration as Senator has gone mute over the subject.

APC and Buhari Are Not Living To Expectation
During the electioneering period, the APC promised annual 3million jobs and monthly 250,000 jobs. Five months into the administration, not a SINGLE job has been created. Instead we keep hearing more job loss.


As a Nigerian, I am very much disturbed with this rising spate of unemployment which has become a menace in the society. I that believe this issue is one that need holistic attention and not one to play politics with. Despite being in opposition, it is my prayer that the incumbent government get it right in order to move Nigeria forward. As for the Senators, they should look for some other things to pre-occupy themselves if they are bored instead of promoting motions to deceive gullible Nigerians into believing that they are working when they are not.



May God Bless Us All and Bless Nigeria

We don't really need to scrap the bicameral legislature. Part time status and placing them on minimum wage will solve a lot. Also their legislative Aides should be drawn from the civil service.
