PoliticsRe: President Tinubu Emerges ECOWAS Chairman by Shattuck(m): 10:03am On Jul 10, 2023
Ellasure:
you see brother, the problems we are facing in Nigeria includes begerly attitude in government. let me ask you, what stops Benue state government from creating a benue state kind of military force to counter whatever the suspected fulani marauders are doing in their backyards. let the Benue government acts for once and let us watch if the Nigerian public will condemn their actions.

why is that you always bring local problems to the federal government attention. I believe a state government is empowered enough for most challenges of human endeavours excepting the fact that some governors have adopted a laid back attitude in governance.

in the USA where our current constitution was copied the various states are more powerful than the US president and they do deploy state troopers to any trouble area without the president saying otherwise. Even, the US president must seek the state governors permission before deploying a military force to the state and if governor reject it the president can not do anything than to wait and watch events as it unfolds.

in Nigeria, we are handing over all the military force authorities to the federal government because most states are stealing the security votes collected from the Nigerian federal government to secure their states.

it is total lack of shame and responsibilities to call on federal government to come to your state to do what you have received money to do. you are eating with double hands.

Buhari, in his administration told governors Seyi makinde to go and secure his state when he fulani were rampaging the sw and that is exactly what he did by creating Amotekun with other governors from the zone.

so, Nigerian are eagerly awaiting a positive actions against the fulani soldiers troubling the Benue people on their farms. if they want to start a state police I believe the knowledge is available to them. wasting of Benue people lifes on daily basis should STOP.
I see your point though

And the governor are there for decorations abi?;

Why did the southwest formed Amotekun Is it not because if insecurity in their states? The Southwest didn't just sit back and be crying to the federal government.
amotekun acts as a supplement, even though the state can set up something it still wouldn't change the fact that it is primarily the responsibility of the federal govt and the president, for the fact that you are calling on the state govt just goes a long way to confirm the president's failure in addressing security issues.

They can be their wealth of experience and the knowledge of how things work where they are to bear.

But they should not near us with Gay laws
it will not make any difference, the only sensible one, is the ability for the diaspora to vote, as for the seat in the national assembly, do you know apc has a branch in the UK, if a position like that is being created it will still be given to one of their kind in the diaspora, furthermore, a lot of Nigerian leaders have lived, worked in the diaspora for years before returning to Nigeria to join politics, folks like femi gbajabiamila, tinubu, Willie obiano and others in the Senate and house of rep, even governors, have been in the diaspora, when they returned to join politics in Nigeria can we say they brought and positive change to leadership in Nigeria?

Each local government should invest in waste manage management it shouldn’t be state affairs alone

No one should be allowed to throw dirt at middle road

Why are Nigerians like this

Private investors should be allowed

No one should be allowed not to use government or private waste comp so it’s compulsory
I agree I always say this every house, office should be mandated to pay compulsory waste management fees annually, that's the only way to make Nigeria clean.

PoliticsRe: Forfeited $460,000 Was A Civil Matter: Tinubu's Witness, Bamidele Tells Tribunal by Shattuck(m): 7:35pm On Jul 05, 2023
GeneralPula:
Forfeiture - A situation in which government can take away your property or money if the origin of such item was from illegal dealings..

A forfeiture becomes civil if after investigation, you have no hand in the illegal dealings where the money or property came from! It means you’re a victim of the circumstance yourself! Such person won’t be charged as he/she hasn’t commits any crime..

A forfeiture becomes criminal if after investigation, you have a hand in the illegal dealings where the money or property came from. In this case, such person would be charged and would sure go to jail!

In tinubu's case, he has no hand in the illegal dealings which brought the money into his account. The money doesn't belong to him and he has no knowledge where it came from!

However, IRS found out the money came from a drug trade! IRS involved DEA for more thorough investigation but tinubu wasn't involved! This was why he only forfeited the money and he wasn't charge for any crime!
you are wrong, a forfeiture does not become civil because you don't have a hand in it, or because you are innocent,in a civil case or a criminal case you can either be found guilty or not in both cases.
PoliticsRe: Forfeited $460,000 Was A Civil Matter: Tinubu's Witness, Bamidele Tells Tribunal by Shattuck(m): 7:12pm On Jul 05, 2023
GeneralPula:
Of course, but then tinubu didn’t commit the drug crime! Hence why he never got charged! Emotion can’t win you court cases!

The forfeited money was related to drugs? Yes!

Was Tinubu sentenced for the crime? NO!

Why wasn’t tinubu sentenced
or got any indictment? It was cuz he had a civil forfeiture! Not a criminal forfeiture!
it could also mean he co operated and cut a deal with law enforcement by snitching on his other gang members.

PoliticsRe: JAMB: Northerners Value Honesty Above Ethnicity - Reno Omokri by Shattuck(m): 12:52pm On Jul 05, 2023
seborrhic:
Most funny post so far this year.
When we were growing up,that was the impression the elders gave us,that the Northerner,no matter the status,is a honest,not money loving,simple person.
Buhari and many northern politicians put that to bed.
The unfortunate thing is that in Nigeria we depend on our perception,belief or assumptions,we hardly like or want to rely on facts and data when it's available.
Check through the number of political office holders since 1999 and do a simple statistics of the number of politicians from North and South with allegations of corruption or being probed for corruption.
The statistics would shock people to realise as many,if not more northerners have been involved in corruption.
The simple test is this,Reno or whosoever should mention one northern politician that has not been involved in allegation of pilfering federal,state LG or MDAP funds.
The only person I am seeing is Nuhu Ribadu,ALL others including their god, Buhari have public,published allegations and/or investigation of corruption hanging on their heads!
this is exactly my take too, the idea of the north being more honest is false, even in religion, there is a huge pronspensity for hypocrisy, in politics that one is a no go area, how many northerners criticized buhari during his misrule? How many even spoke the truth about his mismanagement?
PoliticsRe: JAMB: Northerners Value Honesty Above Ethnicity - Reno Omokri by Shattuck(m): 12:47pm On Jul 05, 2023
LeoDeKing:
Reno is so useless, noted.

But between Northerners and South Easterners, who can you appropriately describe as honest?

You may lie to yourself though. grin
in business I"ll say the north maybe more honest, but in politics they are far from being honest, even in religion, so the so called honesty of the north is not true, if you get to decide which aspect of your life or when to be honest one cannot describe you as being honest.

This is the major reason I don't take any tinubu or apc supporter seriously, who tries to pretend to be patriotic to Nigeria, because these idiots all supported buhari, they are all now tinubu supporters. They are always online gaslighting, if you can support buhari for eight years then you are not fit to even be called a living thing.

Can you post the result INEC uploaded on their server and the result declared on state by state basis so that we can all see how they did not correlate.
there were a lot of cases which obi tendered and contested including benue, etiki, Abuja, rivers, I think about 17 states are being disputed, even in the rivers case of rigging which has gained more popularity than others, the major reason inec may not be able to convince the tribunal of its integrity, when the rivers case came up how did inec addressed it, did they even acknowledge the flaw and irregular result? Did inec even attempt to correct it? No, with just this one case inec cannot defend its integrity.
