Tinubu also promises 4th mainland bridge, empty promises or lies

can you put your life in the hands of david mark

which resource are you talking about in bayelsa state?

which oil is in bayelsa state. there are few oil in bayelsa state,

USA states are independent of each other.   Bayelsa state get so much. It is budget is half of that of lagos. even while lagos state, have 20 times the population of bayelsa state

we remove river state into south east

enough reason

the national assembly can disolve this state, because they do not have internal generated revenue and do not meet the criterial for a state.

the decision is not yours to make, there is noway in the nigeria constitution, that give you that power. That decision to merge state , does not rest in a state. please see the nigeria constitution. A state or its governor or state assembly have no says to the merge with another state. Please see the nigeria constitution.

when you look at the internal generated revenue of this state , it is less than some local govt in nigeria. they should not be state, if local government have more internal generated revenue than a state. it tell you. the local govt chairman is more powerful than some governors.

no,the se state are too small. they do not have internal generated revenue. even local govt generate more internet revenue than south east state.

Too many state. we reduce by 6 states.

The six South-West governors were conspicuously absent yesterday at the reconvened Yoruba Unity Forum which held at the Ikenne, Ogun State home of the late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo and presided over by the matriarch of the Awolowo, Chief (Mrs.) Hannah Idowu Dideolu Awolowo.

Among those officially invited were Senator Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun State, his counterparts, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, Lagos, Abiola Ajimobi, Oyo, Raufu Aregbesola, Osun, Mr. Kayode Fayemi, Ekiti, and Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, Ondo.

While none of the invited governors serving and former, attended other attendees are former Chief of General Staff, Lt. Gen Oladipo Diya (rtd.), Kofoworola, Bucknor-Akerele, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, former deputy to the former Oyo State governor, Alhaji Taofeeq Arapaja, among others. Although a formal invitation was extended to the governors, it was a surprise that none of them was around.
During the meeting, the forum urged President Goodluck Jonathan to urgently ensure that the Yoruba nation occupies its rightful position in the political hierarchy. This was necessary so as to give the race a sense of belonging in the country.

Apparently reacting to the loss of the speakership of the House of Representatives which gave the position to Hon. Aminu Tambuwal, the forum decried the role played by some politicians from the South-West.
The group lamented lack of cohesion among Yoruba and stated that it was what assisted Tambuwal to assume that position among Yoruba honourables.

In a communiqué, the forum decried a situation where the race was completely schemed out of top political positions in the Jonathan administration urging the President to “remember that the race voted for him and not his party”. While reviewing the post election killings in some parts of the North, the forum warned that the killing of Yoruba anywhere in the country must stop.

On the speculations that the Yoruba leadership is up for grabs, Senator Tony Adefuye said it is not vacant.
He added that no matter what anybody says, “Mama H.I.D Awolowo is our leader and she is performing the role effectively.
