PoliticsRe: Nigerian Senator Vs Minister: Who Is Higher? by Thislifesef: 9:46pm On Aug 17, 2023
SMARTMOTORS:
The question is silly!... How can you compare an individual appointee with democratically elected officer......have you Ever heard that a minister called a senator to panel for questioning? They don't have such powers but senators do! A senator is way higher than a minister in every aspect.
grin grin grin
What is the fuse about being democratically elected?
Why don't you look at it from the angle that a minister is nominated directly and doesn't even need any election before being appointed?

Take umahi for example, how would you compare umahi who controls a ministry that the annual budget can be over 700 billionaire naira yearly to a senator that may not even get a budget of a billion naira in a year.

What's the essence of calling someone for questioning when we all know the power to sack the ministers still lies with the executive and not the legislature huh huh

All the senators would dump the Senate if they have the chance to become a minister.
A house of rep member would gladly be a state commissioner sef.
Comparing a senator to a minister I repeat, is like comparing a boy scout to an army officer.
Dem no be mate my brother.

You must be kidding right?
Fear who no fear principal officers in the senate. Fear chairman senate committee on appropriation, that one will paddle budget like say tomorrow no dey. You see chairmen of senate committees? During budget presentations, alot of things goes down grin likewise during oversight functions. Guy na senators wey no Sabi road get wahala grin

Politically, in a state like Edo for example, Oshiomole is the leader of the party in that state and not the minister from that state.
grin grin
Many Nigerians only know the senators that represents their constituencies but do not know the other two.

The only influence a senator is supposed to have over the three to eight local govts he represents is been enjoyed by the state governors of their states.

A senator has no single influence except when they are in group as in a sitting.
You want to compare a senator to a minister that controls an annual budject for his ministry huh huh

The minister of water resources determines who and who handles contracts pertaining to his ministry in the whole country o, na dat kind person you dey use senator compare.
Whatever money a senator makes in 4 year tenure a corrupt minister can make it just within a year.

A house of rep member can even leave his position to be a commissioner in his state.
And oshiomhole is the leader of APC in edo because he was a former gov and national chairman and his personal attributes not because he's a senator.
He was already the state leader when he was not in govt at all.

Ministers are like managers, Senators are like shareholders of a company.
Ministers are answerable directly to president and also to the higher chamber if them nor perform well.
How possible is it for you to be higher than someone you are answerable to if and when the need arises.
Abi you nor know say senator fit sack minister if elected senate president.
Abi you nor still know say senator fit reject appointment of minister?
Senate president can be made a president when a sitting president dies?
A minister that can be fired at anytime with the blink of an eye, but for a senator you can’t wake up and send them home.
Appointed and elected difference plenty ooh
Minister na upgraded PA level with style, class and many money to steal.
I rest my case here.
But for money level “Minister” they control so many things sometimes self those senators need to Lobi for contract from those ministries.
grin grin grin grin
The op said in "Nigeria". My brother, in Nigeria a senator to a minister is just like a boy scout to a military officer.

"in Nigeria, the executive is the ONLY powerful arm of government" and the minister is part of the executive arm.
It's just like comparing a state house of essembly member to a commissioner grin grin

The Nigerian senator has no power, influence except when they are in group or committee.

A Nigerian minister can do and undo, the whole ministry is under his personal watch and baba controls annual budgetary allocations and everything that comes with it.

You can't compare a senator to a junior minister and it's not possible for a minister to leave his ministerial position for the senate but a senator can leave his seat to be a junior minister.

Hor is worse, a house of reo member can relinquish his position to be a commissioner in his state.

*the only difference between the Senate president and floor member is his hierarchy in govt.
Some floor member senators are more Influential than the Senate president.

I ask this innocent question cos I have been wondering why a serving senator like Dave Umahi would leave his senatorial seat and "demote" himself to ordinary Minister that needs to pass through the Senate before resuming. Political gurus educate me please.
a Nigerian senator has no single power or value except when they are in group or a committee.
Comparing a senator to a minister is like comparing a boy scout member to a military officer.

Nigerians forget things easily.
Were you in planet Mars when the federal government under Buhari warned state governors to stop fixing federal roads on their behalf?
yes maybe I was in planet Mars because this useless man has been a governor since 7 years and buhari never warned states to stop fixing federal roads, he only told wike not to expect refund from the fg because the state uses and enjoys the roads too.

Isn't it funny how you are defending an obvious failure while the Indegines are crying.

This is one child otedola is not proud of.
like I don't really understand.

Aside being an otedola daughter she's into showbiz too.
If I can remember she's has dated three guys in the last five to seven years that we are all aware of.

What has she really done wrong?
That she posted her boyfriend that everyone does or that she is dating the third man in five years?

Most of the women bashing her here are sampling up to 5 different penis while still in their husband's house.

An average Nigerian girl is likely to have up to four relationships at a go sef.

This same otedola bought a 5 million pounds house for dj cuppy just November not to talk of the preceding Ferraris and other gifts and privileges.

You that is proud of your daughter wetin she dey benefit from your pride?

Does Philip Shaibu needs a soothsayer to tell him he can NEVER be governor of Edo State?

Even if you put one military man and one thug per house to deter voters, it can't happen in Edo...

The Next Governor is coming from Esan..

The deputy can't claim to be ignorant of how Politics is Run in Edo....

This is not Lagos where everyone follows one man like a dummy cheesy
oga, Nigeria politics is not turn by turn, you play the game and win.

I am from esan central but I don't even see us producing the next governor.

The biggest mistake PDP will make is by presenting an esan candidate because APC will field a bini candidate.
If this scenerio plays out, it's game over for pdp.
Oshiomhole will win edo North for APC, while the binis will not fail to grab the opportunity of being in power for 16 years.

Esan is the smallest region in edo and has little relevance on who determines who becomes a governor.
Exceot esan align with edo North or edo South we can never produce a governor.

This is Nigeria politics, emotions has no place in Nigeria politics, turn by turn has no place in Nigeria politics.
It's pure game, if you feel it's your turn then play the game.
As it is currently in edo, I do not see any hope for any esan candidate in the forthcoming guber elections.

Videos or any content can be removed permanently from the Internet.
I have seen it done thrice and one is a porn video on xvideos, the teenagers people intervened and the video is no longer on the web, the title of the porn was "little happiness enjoys herself on her first act" that video has been taken down from the Internet permanently.

When the crisland sextape leaked, Tonto dike offered to help with the total eradication of the video from the Internet and she said she knew someone that can do it for her but it will cost a lot of money but I don't know how they later went.
A little Google search will help though.

[You are right bro, some players are been going to Saudi but nobody notice untill Thier king 👑 , the greatest of all time went there. Truly he as good important on the League and the whole world can see the impact.

as for Neymar Jr, I don't really see him as a good player Sha, check CR7 and Messi, u hardly count the days of Thier injuries, they always smart and careful. That's why both kings reigns for manu years.

U can never hear that Messi or Ronaldo play a match and go injury for many weeks. Neymar cans dribble like Messi or skillful or run like Rolando. I prefer Mbappe pass him..

So it's better for him to go and make Money. No good club will sign or pay him that huge wages
there's nothing like "both kings" lol.
Stop mentioning Messi and Ronaldo in the same sentence.
Theres only one king and the king is the fifa under 20 world cup winner, Olympic gold winner, Copa America winner, finalessima winner and world cup winner. He's about to win his eight Ballon Dior and the first player in America league to do so in history.

If there's anything like multiple kings then they should be in this order:
Messi.
Pele.
Maradona.

Ronaldo that has never seen a world cup semi final has no place among the kings.

I have been to 3 out of those 5 west African countries n I can tell u it’s nothing to write home about

Ghana is all hype with that their money, Benin Republic n Ivory Coast that they plant cassava along their so called federal roads

No good food except fish cos they have water around them, many of those so called countries aren’t even up to 10 northern states combined not to even talk about their economy

Ghana is trying but don’t dare compare it to Nigeria
I have been to all the five listed west Africa nations and I can tell you for free, Nigeria can"t be compared to them in terms of development, Nigeria still have a very very long way to go before they can meet up with them.
What does development mean to you when the four listed countries have better electricity, better road network, better security.
Apart from the security at the borders, you can't find a security road block from the beginning of benin Republic, till Togo, you will only find few in Ghana till Burkina Faso.
From benin rep to Togo to Ghana to Burkina Faso you can't find a single pot hole on their highway.
In fact, from my experience, Nigeria should be among the five least developed countries in Africa.
