Nice illustration. I see your point completely. You are absolutely correct. Lagos has no basis to fund her past governors. It's unsustainable

His analysis is faulty. Those figures are not correct.

Perhaps all former governors are collecting jumbo packages monthly but that doesn't make it right.
To drag Jagaban's name here reeks of hatred and envy. When did Jagaban start setting moral standard for Nigerians?
Which of the cursed erosion ridden redmudland states are you from to start with?

He is speaking the truth, is the crook "Jagaban" your father or benefactor?

Instead of us, the victims of the political roguery of our leaders, to put our mouths together and condemn them jointly, we are here dividing ourselves on ethnic bias.

Remember the hunger in our youths has no ethnic preference, and in the end when that hunger is not satisfied it will set this country on fire.

It will interest you to know that ur Jagaban started this nonsense. As for morality, if a politician lacks morals, and then you go ahead and crown him leader of about 40m people, I wonder if something is not inherently wrong with you

mushystuff:
When glaring facts of the demonic wickedness of Tinubu and his likes are mentioned, y'all should stop scrambling to offer half-assed defences! It is abominable for any past governor to be entitled to houses and hundreds of millions along with statutory security protection while the poor masses suffer! Whether Tinubu or Amaechi (Rivers State) or whichever state, about 20 of them now!

You either condemn them totally or keep shut rather than start the selective defense or attacks such as this one you just put up!

Selective defense and selective attacks are equally bad. Nobody should be defending such evil regardless of who is perpetrating it and likewise nobody should be calling only one person's name in accusation as if Tinubu is the only bad leader we have in Nigeria.
Let us join hands to attack all these useless corrupt leaders as one people otherwise we will never defeat them.
Divide and rule was what made colonization of this country possible and they are still using that same tactic to keep us in subjugation.

lie with a little dignity

You mean a trillion naira is now 2bn dollars?

Lagos budget 1.293 trn naira

Zamfara Budget N135.25 bn

He's correct. A budget is simply a proposed expenditure. Nothing more.

I was referring to the active Lagos 2019 budget which was just slightly bigger 2billion dollars and not the 2020 which is not active ..and even the 2020 budget is just a paltry 4 billion dollars when you take population and infrastructural deficit into cognizance ... Please wake up pound pound Lagos is not in a better financial position than Zamfara ,Lagos just has money available for a Governor who doesn't want to work to loot

babaolofin:
You are very unenlightened and unintelligent and publicly displayed your ignorance. It is foolishness not to comprehend a submission on an important matter and to openly display ignorance. The governor of one of the poorest States in Nigeria with the leadership of his Parliament decided that the state does not have the resources to pay such high allowances you brought the issue of Lagos State a potential third economy in Africa. You should have brought Osun State that is on the same economic league with Zamfara, we would have taught you nobody can practice that in Osun.

States like Kano, Lagos, Rivers and AkwaIbom are financially buoyant. Moreover, governors with investments that are cash cow do not need such pensions directly, the investment would pay the pension indirectly.

You can relocate out of Lagos otherwise hatred of Tinubu will send you to an early grave.

You people should keep killing the country for the benefit of your benefactors ok?
It seems to me that Yoruba nation is silently breeding its own brand of almajiris who for a plate of rice are ready to do anything and defend anything.
We'll see how this goes

SarkinYarki:
Please carry this your SW nonsense away for my mention and live in your usual denial ,, SW first to call others criminals while protecting their own criminal ..for your information I mentioned the man because he was the person that first passed that hideous ex governors pension into law from where other states copied it if from. if he didn't do it then no governor would have

No Southeast are the people who leave their region behind for economic opportunities everywhere why claiming their own leaders are saints and have never done nothing wrong.

You are the one with the obsession with Tinubu, Aregbe etc(just like you have proven on this thread ) why nobody in the southwest or North gives a Bleep about your government.

You are the ones who call your president a dullard, his tribe backward cows and claim everyone else is jealous of you.


It's better you leave southwest and head back to the East where you would likely be in paradise instead of complaining about South West leaders all day.

When we get our country we leave Lagos but till then Lagos is our God given home

THAT WAS WHY YARI AND CO USED GREED TO SCATTER APC CHANCES IN THE LAST ELECTIONS. THEY WANT TO PUT SOMEONE THAT WILL BE WORSHIPPING THEM AS THEIR SUCCESSOR. WICKED AND DEVILISH PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.
IMAGINE THOSE PENSIONERS THAT HE DENIED THEIR MEAGRE SALARIES AND NOW HE WANTED SO MUCH MONEY FOR DOING NOTHING.

Stop making up falacies bruv

Even the Estimated budget of Zamfara is not up to $350m not to talk of the working budget which will be much lower.

By the way, How exactly do you reach the conclusion that lagos is not in a better financial position than Zamfara when Lagos has constantly ranked as one of the states in Nigeria that can survive without Federal government monthly allocation.

You are just found of making up stats from your ass.

LegoxMetahuman:
is this post about tinubu?


your hatred for tinubu has made you lost your brain.

Why should he not hate tinubu?
What has tinubu done to endear himself to him as a political leader

The bastard complaining now will pay himself 720 million when leaving ooo

And some people need just 5k to buy Medicine for sick child.

27Pushing30:
Let this governor go further to publish his present Salary and emoluments as governor

Shut ur ignorant hole
His salary is fixed by RMAFC not by himself with the connivance of the state assembly.
On the score, he could even be said to be a better leader than Buhari

joshcaleb200:
Governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle of Zamfara state has accused the immediate past governor of the state, Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, of paying himself N360 million from the state pension funds shortly before he left office.

The governor said this in Wednesday while assenting to a law stopping jumbo allowances for former governors, deputies, speakers and their deputies in the state.

The Speaker of the state House Assembly, Nasiru Muazu Magarya, and other principal officers of the House had brought a bill before the governor for assent.

Matawalle, while assent the bill, said, “If you could remember former governor Yari had sent a letter to me demanding that his N10 million monthly upkeep allowances be paid and he was even threatening to take me to court should I fail to pay the money.

“I called my deputy, the state assembly speaker and his deputy and asked them whether they need such mind-boggling allowances and they all answered in negative. Then, we decided to repeal the law backing the payment and I have assented to it.

“Our successors will not find it easy to come up with such obnoxious law to pillage the little resources of the state in the future. There is no reason whatsoever the state could afford to pay the past leaders a whopping sum of N702 million annually to the detriment of dying pensioners in the state,” Matawalle said.

“It is on the record that the backlog of pension and gratuity for local government workers and primary school teachers left behind by Abdulaziz Yari’s administration stands at N3billion while that of the state government retired civil servants also stands at N3billion. “What moral justification could be offered for such a Jumbo package for a select few when the social index has consistently indicated that the majority of our population lives in abject poverty?” he queried.

According to the governor, for anyone to become governor or attain any top position in the state, or means they were already financially well to do.

No, you can head back to Show the world that Southeast politicians have turned your region into a mini London, unlike the southwest where you currently reside whose politicians and people you love to hate

otherwise every sane human being will just see you as a people consumed by hatred.

Quick to defend.Google Lagos State Ex Governors pension and allowances.They are even given homes in Abuja which they never governed as part of the package.Tinubu's houses in asokoro and bourdillon are part of this package.
I am waiting if Julius Berger will build house for Buhari in Daura just as they did for IBB&Abdulsalam in Minna,Obj in Abeokuta and Jonathan in Otueke.Then we will know if he is truly a man of integrity.(I know all forms of defences are being prepared in advance)

Injera:
Do you have ample proof all you are just running your mouth with hear says

This former governor is a glutton

Yet they have just borrowed N250B(almost a quarter of its annual budget) to fund projects and settle contractor's bills.Do not be deceived about any IGR,Lagos has huge debts that are crystallising everyday and the repayments eroding the IGR. Sanwoolu is groaning and sweating but can say it out.If you know any close person to him,you can verify .

South East is no mini london , I am saying the whole Nigeria is a mess and for us to single out some politicians for blame and try to shield others like Tinubu is wrong . Just see how you have hyper protecting Tinubus name just because I reminded y'all that he also collects the same type of pension you want to crucify Yari for . Haba

And the Nigerian youths are more Interested in the Goons who starred in BBN, And worrying their Emtpty brains about One guy named Bobrisky.

History won't forgive him, he even performed woefully during his time as governor.

You are silly tbh

So how are other politicians attacked while only Tinubu is shielded on this Thread?

This is about Zamfara not Lagos

There is nothing on the caption of this thread that suggest the nonsense you just typed?

You are simply moving around in circles

Jagsban started what exactly? .

He started Efcc or what? He started corruption in Nigeria or taught T orji and Ikepazu how to reck Abia state?

So how does Agbero have anything to with the subject of discussion on this thread?

I give up on you tbh

America has huge debt that it might take Four generations to pay it back. Does that mean Zamfara is better than America?

Many states in Nigeria have debts.

The problem here is Debt to GDP ratio which is considerably small in lagos. Hence, the Financial stability of Lagos.

Some people are just naturally wicked so much that even devil dey fear them

why can he create and wail about tinubu all day?

Yari was one of the worst governors Nigeria has ever had. Kadaria Ahmed called him the worst. This sinful man said, poor people were suffering from meningitis due to their sins
