Dino own a couple of franchise in USA, how he got the money to invest I do not know

But he had them before becoming a rep member

Did you know when Dino graduated from the University. Mind you he was first elected into HoR in 2003.

He acquired his so called franchise after he became a legislator and not before.

Kobojunkieee:
What part of the current Constitution states that power is unitarized at the center?

Choose words intelligently if you want to have a robust conversation. I don't engage in childish arguments.

Go and check items on the exclusive list

lexy2014:
how is the 1999 constitution preventing transparency and accountability?

what and what is in the 1999 constitution that prevents transparency and accountability?

The 67 item in exclusive list are things that should be controlled by the federating units in a federalism.

You can't call your constitution a federal constitution yet unitarised all power at the centre. The system is purely antithetical to development

Kobojunkieee:
🤔

Your response has absolutely nothing to do with any of what I infact typed in response to the topic here. Are you certain your read anything of what was posted either in the OP or my retort?

It is you that don't know what you are saying. Be feigning ignorance there.

Nigeria needs a new constitution for transparency and accountability, until then any attempt to chastise the president while protecting your failed governors would be seen as hypocrisy.

No Senator in Nigeria collect less than 50m and HoR doesn't receive less than 30m.

I don't know why the lazy journalists in Nigeria can't conduct simple research and give Nigerians accurate figure All these speculation is what is emboldened the legislators to milk the country dry

I don't know why every political argument is now tilted toward selecting a bad leader from one region.

When you tell them they should focus on their governor who has failed to perform they would say it is the FG that is responsible for fiscal policy.

Now there's discussion around reducing the power of the FG to redistribute resources to ensure responsibility and accountability away from the current rent-seeking arrangement, our brothers from SE are now saying we should maintain the status quo that gives unnecessary power to the FG where it controls 67 items in the exclusive list.

Should we assume that SE people are ignorant or sheer hypocrisy

Kobojunkieee:
If you have ever in fact read the document for yourself, you will find that the problem we have today did not start with it. Yes, it was forced on Nigerians but that is not enough of a reason for why Nigeria turned out the way it has today. Understand that Constitutions are not magical documents. If the people require enforcement of the laws Supreme Laws highlighted in the documentation at every level of government, the Supreme Law becomes nothing more than a background joke.

The current constitution would have worked well had the people been installed themselves as the backbone of this democracy from the beginning. Rather, Nigerians got themselves chasing after Messiahs forgetting their role was meant to be as the Messiahs in what was meant to be their democracy.

Lemos14:
Mr man what is your own business with that now?

I thought you support apc government so what is now the issue? Are you finally surprised that you supported a clueless human being and then he does this?

What are you saying bro?

Are there no LP lawmakers in Nass?

Am sure your Peter Obi can't recite the new Anthem properly

Eko oni baje.
Centre of excellence
London of the developers and chest beater

What about a lawmaker who cannot recite it properly, those ones should be send back to school

I wonder if there would ever be truth in the country. .

All the lawmakers lied about their income including Kawu and Sani, just as Obasanjo exaggerated their income.

A sensible mind should decode the threshold of a Senators monthly income

Lie full this country sha Even satisense dey follow dem lie

They would curse for this thread just watch them

Nebuchadnezar:
lol which candidate ?
You're deceiving yourself here.
No politician will ever be accepted massively like Obi ever again.
aligning with Atiku is just a lesser devil because tinubu is evil and a demon.

Stop being a novice, Soludo will gain more appeal outside Igboland that your mediocre Obi.

DMerciful:
Let Obi stoop low to conquer. Since Nigeria is under existential threat from Tinubu and APC, there's no sacrifice too big for Obi. Afterall,
Obi calls Atiku his boss

Just listen to yourself. You Atiku is the master while your Obi is subordinate. Master / slave relationship.
Nice one

DMerciful:
Tinubu is constantly compromising every institution so that without Atiku/Obi repeat of 2019, it would be impossible to defeat his rigging machinery

Use your brain and not your battered ego. The hate for Tinubu as a result of knockout defeat of your lord and saviour can't make you reason well. You are saying a presidential aspirant should reduce himself to a VP.

You don't love Obi, you only hate Tinubu

Nebuchadnezar:
Whenever I see my fellow Obidients trying to brush aside Peter Obi partnership with Atiku, I always marvel.
If Nigerians really want to dispose APC come 2027 then Obi must either partner with Atiku or step aside.
Any ticket with Obi on it will be another long 4 years of APC and tinubu.
This is not emotions but politics.
Even tinubu will be praying against Atiku/Obi partnership because he stood no chance no matter the rigging.
Right now the focus of Nigerians should be to remove APC in power.
With this I'll advice Obi to either step aside or Partner with Atiku.
As for me I'll prefer him stepping aside.
man has really tried his best by being the only politician in Nigeria with zero corruption records.
he's a multi billionaire and doing well for himself.
besides he can still be president in the future because age is still by his side.
The goal now is to remove APC from power because it's obvious that they're failed Nigerians.
Obidients should understand that politics is not emotional.
You can't want a better Nigeria and still enable tinubu for second tenure.
You'll be contradicting yourself.


I remain King Nebuchadnezar

I never read your comment finish before getting answer to it. Simple, another candidate would be sponsored to take away obidients block vote.
Don't play

Praxis758:
Heading the finance ministry seems to be bigger than the capacity of Wale Edun.

Nigeria isn’t Lagos.

Che you are competent for the post make we swap am for you.

Ant brain

Obi should stop all these rants just like his obidient online miscreants who daily criticized without providing a single solution.

It is hypocrisy to ignore the activities of IPOB your brothers who killed many traditional chiefs and security agents in your backyard.

How can you ignore the Monday sit-at-home decreed by Simon Ekpa on your people even when such action destroyed the economy of the SE?

You are just a biased and ethnic supremacist who speaks when it concerns others but is quiet if it is your tribesman

nairalee:
So there are enormous challenges faced by the government yet they insisted on frivolties like yatch, presidential jet, exotic vehicles etc that gulps hundreds of millions.

And u are surprised why Tinubu is being criticized

Does Tinubu has control over. NASS budget?

Show me the place where Tinubu budgeted for Yatch in 2024 budget being his first budget?

It is annoying to see the so-called educated illiterate abusing Tinubu up and down as their brain can't fathom the enormous challenges faced by this government

Controversial Hundeyin who said Aote refinery will never work

IGBOPROMISE1:
Hope if asked you can tell us the story behind that pic you attached to your post? It would be very silly for a fellow black to see nothing wrong with that pic and repost it if the source is unknown or if the black guy in the pic is being held in a chokehold for anything other than it being a case of being detained after getting caught engaging in criminality!

To me the image depict 2 human being. In your mind you see a black man and a while, so much to say about what goes on in your mind.

chiiraq802:
Lols.... you that hv what to say, tell me one tangible achievement under una Government that will mk me shut up, if not propaganda.

Even almajiri are not lamenting the way you do.

chiiraq802:
You defend rubbish too much. why didn't you guys bring the matter up since or is it because he supported endbadgovernance protests answer me.

Other APC controlled states, what are the achievements of some of the Governors, if not propaganda

If you have nothing to say why not shut up.

Because this is the first time he will receive genuine neck pressing. He has been the one pressing Nigerians neck all this while

LagosPrince:
This is obviously the worst Olympic outing for Nigeria

Nigeria my country, if there had been a competition in kidnapping and banditry, Nigeria would have taken multiple medals.

God will bless everyone who wants this administration to succeed

Na election una loss no be pikin die, why this mourning come long like this surprises me

Truthissupreme:
that man sharp o

Na so he go pretend he is with them and stab them when it matters

Northern politicians don get the message from their people

I remember your moniker

Saao:
the same Russia flag with Tinubu during his broadcast. You guys think you know too much but making fool of yourselves. What you saw them with is military flags and you can as well saw them talking to military in support of their government. It's a total frustration from your wicked brother in power against the people.

Stop sounding stupid and use your head, why should a protester in a democracy flaunt military flag while participating in hunger protest

SisterAnn:
Was Buhari not pelted with stones in Katsina?

Stop making stupid comments, many politicians are daily being molested for one thing or the other and there are agitation and demands that often lead to confrontation, all that can't be termed protest.
