great place but made inhabitable by traffic jam.

no 5 is a big lie. are you actually living in Lagos. crime , rape, 419, ritual killing and homicides are extremely high. Lagos is a great but with great proverty also. nomansland comes to mind by some section of the country.

Although I am not a fan of Aregbesola on this, but the truth is that the governor put himself in this mess by embarking on too many white elephant projects. However, we should also not rule out how the clueless one GEJ messed up the economy with his corrupt practices along with his wailing wailers association PDP who refused to respect and listen to the concerns raised by many Nigerians about saving for the raining days rather than looting the common wealth of the country !!!

Gej did not mess up any thing. use anambra as a bench a bench bank and standard for development. no excuse for your failure. Tell your governor to learn from anambra obiano

Ephemmm:
And what is the Bigi about Anambra State Governor increasing salary since last year? Go and deepen your research, Aregbesola approved payment of salaries more than minimum wages since about 3-4 years ago.

To be candid, he is not a poor Governor as painted, but he bites more than what he can chew in my own opinion. Despite the drastic reduction in FG allocations, how can a state like Osun without much internally generated revenue embark on the following:

1. Cancellation of PTA fee

2. Provision of Uniforms for school pupil

3. Provision of meal for pupils

4. Provision of Opon Imo for pupils

5. Embarking on construction of ultra-modern school buildings

6. Provision of school buses for pupils etc


The question is - how can a State like Osun without much functioning industries nor much internally-generated revenue embark on all these project that even a state like Lagos with better allocations and revenues cannot sustain?

Aregbesola needs re-orientation: freedom is not even free in Freetown.

Every thing is big about anambra. I am jealous of that state. everything still be working for that state. they should stop paying all this free stuff. Oyo state is now crying for the free education and free pay waec payment that resulted in massive failure since 2007 till date. the governor said that less than 15% has been successful. that's while anambra state continued to best in waec and neco since time immemorial without free education.

Against the background of the stretching arrears of salaries owed public workers in Osun State, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the spokesman of the All Progressives Congress, APC , during an interactive session with the Editorial Board of Vanguard gave reasons why the state has found itself in dire straits asserting that the party cannot in any way be ashamed of the governor , Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, or his record of performance. Excerpts:

Osun State is probably the most cosmopolitan state in the whole of Nigeria. We are very proud of our governor, Rauf Aregbesola and we stand by him because he is one of the most proactive governors, he is one governor that has taken the reason for governance very seriously.

What happened in Osun State is as follows: Up to 2013 December, the average that was distributed between the three tiers of the federation was about N800 billion a month but as of May last year, N338 billion was what was distributed, so what you have is that most states have suffered more than 50 per cent decline in revenue accruing to them from the federation account.

Osun State is not just the most cosmopolitan, it has the highest number of cities in the whole of country, Ilesha, Oshogbo, Ikirun, Ife and many more. So, by the time this decline came, Aregbesola had embarked on a lot of pro people programmes that had to be sustained and maintained such as the one meal a day programme for school children, the O-YES programme that employed so many people and kept crime at the lowest level in the whole of the country.

He had embarked on social welfare for the very elderly, school expansion and because of the introduction of the one meal a day programme, school enrolment had exploded.

So, the fact that a state cannot pay salaries does not mean the governor has been guilty of embelzement or misappropriation of funds, after all, there are some states that take derivation from oil that are still owing.

I will be ashamed of the governor if for instance I know for a fact that he took the money belonging to the state, misappropriated it or spent it unwisely or embezzeled. So far, nobody has come out to accuse Aregbesola of misappropriation of funds or if even being insensitive to the plight of the people.
But if a man was taking about N3.6 billion a month but the last time he took I think he got about N400 million.

Abandoning of projects

When he came in, he also inherited a lot of debts for which banks were also deducting, so, there is no way that we in APC can be ashamed of him because we know what is happening.

What of Oyo State? It is what is happening in Osun State that is happening in Oyo State also. It is either you say I am going to retrench and send people packing or I am going to abandon my projects.

If you had like Oyo been taking more than N4.2 billion and now they are taking less than N2 billion, how are you going to make up for the shortfall and these are states where internally generated revenue are almost non existence.

Well, I am happy that the Federal Government has come out now with a bailout package for all the states.

I am disappointed with lie muhamad . do you call Oshogbo a city. and by the way anambra state with little resource is still the most
developed of all the state an most urbanized after Lagos. there is no
excuse for failure. anambra
state should be a great example.

You are d full blooded proud southerners and you boldly made a statement in your quotes"that all southerners are criminal". I am just calling you what you called your self. You said you are a criminal. Why crying over a split milk. Be specific to say where you are from. SS is a zone. If you are proud of where you come from mention it. What town? You sound like an auchi man.lol Alibaba and the 40 thieves. Nwa buhari ndi ogbu mmadu.

sukkot:
change your name to stupidoneking. you have made no point. buhari loves yorubas. see how he is romancing fashola and the yoruba man who was agricultural minister under jonathan and then he chose yoruba as his media person. yet he has not chosen one ndigbo. you are on your own ndigbo. yoruba and buhari is real padi-padis. dont try to include us in buharis hatred of igbos lmao. misery loves company
MISERY LOVES COMPANY is what is worrying you

1% just dey brag. Mr Buhari love yoruba for your dream. Igbo man will still be appointed the finance minister: kalu idika kalu, cbn now igbo, nnpc now igbo. Also trade investment etc wil rock the igbos. Yes minister of communication, tourism, women's affair etc for sure is yoruba. A jewish king can never be stupid. Succut and not sukkot is the main spelling of your name. It is an Hebrew name. Sukkot means a slave. Succut is a town/city in hebrew-igbo town in state of isreal

Buhari, even PDP ve admitted that he is clean! Wat about Shagari? He cud not even build a house of his own until d gov assisted him! Wat bout Muritarla Muhammed? Tafawa Balewa! Ahmedu bello! Am not afraid to say it, that Northernarns are better dan us! Am not sayin they re saints, but u re more likely to find amongst them a principled person, like PMB,Yaradua, SLS, Elrufai, Ribadu etc!

This one still they cry about Gej while Buh don make SW 1%

sukkot:
you want him to give the juicy positions to your thieving igbo brothers abi ? gerrarahere. the only igbo man on this planet earth that i can trust is kwachikwu, and he has been appointed. the rest of yall know where the lagoons is at

i am not being tribalistic by the way because i dont think he should appoint any yorubas too. i think he should appoint whomever he is comfortable with appointing regardless of their tribe. i dont trust too many

Buhari has an open hatred for the igbos but a secret hatred for the yorubas. Igbos are ready to tackle him while the yorubas are shy to do so for the mockery they will receive from the igbos. I see igbos getting attention by buhari by force in his ministerial list. So far yorub are far cheated with media assistance and not else.

ALISMILE:
Keep crying son! Am frm d south too and I knw tthat southerners are knwn criminals!

Look at his name Ali. You are from the south kwa. You are a criminal then since you said that they are known criminal. Northern akura

Why won't it be a Northern Agenda when all other regions are full of Armed Robbers.

Not even AMaechi, Fashola etc can be adjudged clean.


If he like he should constitute Govt with 100% Northerners. Who cares.

How many names have been investigated by DSS and they all came back rotten.

99% brainwashed SW? Northerners are now you saints and angels while Fashola you former mr perfect is now arm robber to u.

topsyking:
dont even go there; Bleep gej
we dont have any option that's why we voted for him not because we like him

Eeeyah, kpele. You don dey Confess. ConFess more and yorubas shall be free. You people are suffering worst than 5%. Scam alert.

tonychristopher:
Igbo's were right after all for not voting him ..they saw the handwriting on the face

They are even getting more attention that the yorubas which sacrifice everything and are still worshipping him despite all he is presently doing.

topsyking:
another northerner
Am yoruba but am beginning to dislike general buhari's tribalistic appointments

Too late bro. Igbo saw that long ago. Ibe Kachikwu post in NNPC dwarfs all assistant spokes shit he is distributing to yorubas. Igbo been punished along side with the yoruba. Yoruba's having it even worst. While igbo pressured Buh for more posts, the yoruba shy's away and losses all.

midolian:
You know why I love Buhari? .. He doesn't even know noise-makers like you exist. He is just doing his thing.

It actually 95% hausas and 5% igbo/yoruba and others. Lol

shachris02:
Abia State has sought the assistance of the Peoples Republic of China to build the capacity of entrepreneurs and other citizens engaged in production of garments and leather works in the state.

The government said it planned to support its citizens involved in the production of security uniforms, boots, caps and other gears for use by the armed forces and the para-military agencies in Nigeria and other African countries.

Abia State Governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu, who said this when he visited the Chinese ambassador to Nigeria, Gu Xiaoje, on Wednesday in Abuja, stated that about 100,000 Abia citizens were involved in production of leather shoes, belts, suits and jackets, noting that the small scale manufacturers would be empowered to ensure product consistency and quality.

He said the entrepreneurs need capacity building to ensure consistency and product quality hence his visit to the Chinese envoy to solicit his support.

The governor hinted that his administration is emphasising on technical education for the youths to enable them to be self-reliant.

Ikpeazu encouraged Chinese investors to invest in various sectors of the state economy including the leather and garment industry and agriculture, noting that his state is the highest cocoa producer in the country.

The governor said Abia was the ‘confluence’ of the states in the South-East and South-South regions, stressing that it was also the hub of small scale and medium enterprises in Nigeria.

He said, “Apart from being the hub of small and medium scale enterprises in Nigeria, Abia has a huge market and we make the best dresses, jackets and suits as well as leather shoes and belts. The only thing we want from the Chinese government is capacity building.

“Our aim is to supply military uniforms and gears to all the armed forces and para-military agencies in Nigeria and beyond, but we need capacity to ensure consistency and quality of products; the state government would set up quality control.”

Xiaoje, in his response, promised to encourage Chinese businessmen and investors to support projects and programmes that would benefit them and their host communities.

Abians are the most resourceful people in Nigeria and the only one that can compete with Anambrarians who edged them in their doggedness and risk taking. Did i hear ikpeazu say that Abia is the largest producer of cocoa. Pls, abia bro, confirm this. I always known osun and co. Ikpezu is actually queing into the vision of Oti. I see Abia becoming a true hub of commerce in Naija. I still think Anambra takes the lead in 6 to 10 developmental achievement of any state in Nigeria or call it Zoo by the Biafrans freaks.

Ribadu, the rejected one. You guys make noise about looting and corruption and are not better off than those that you indicts. At least i am 100% sure that the same you employed 75% of Adamawa indigenes into EFCC and covered a lot of discrete lootings of your northern pals. You are still behaving like buhari who was acclaimed to be a saint and an angel but disappointed Nigerians in openly declaring his almost 1billion assets and refused probing the past generals: obj, ibb and co because they have threathen to expose his $2.5 mil oil money missing when he was petroleum minister as well as PTF scandal.

natas22:
Its simple Nigeria just made 2.5 trn naira within 3 months, are we not doing better without the ministers. The last minister of petroleum on her watch $20 billion got lost.

I hope you will now get job and start taking care of your famile.

san316:
This man should go and sit down jooor. We have gone past the issue of ministers long ago. Bring something else to wail about.

I'm sure the interest of these dumbfucccks in the issue of ministers is just to see how their regions or states will be represented and not for the belief that the ministers will make governance easier n more effective.

In Nigeria, ministers have always been so good at awarding contracts n getting kickbacks. It won't be like that this tym around.

Look at your mouth like Joor. Joor mouth. Lol. Every dick and harry don they comments. Just remember he is a legal luminary and constitutional law as well as a professor at that.

Genius100:
Nwabueze needs to shut up or provide the section of the constitution that says the president cannot go without ministers for 2 months..

Lazy fool, how dare you tell Nwabueze to shut up his mouth, in your whole state do you have one as noble as him. He is old to be you grand father. He is the foremost Nigerian CONSTITIONAL LAWYER and a professor at that. You have shown your ignorance. You just lick all the butts and shits of buhari and refused to be civil. You even call your self a genius without recognising your likes. Are Genius fowl? Why others are Genius Eagle.

The aim has been achieved. everyone knows him now.

honestly, i dont know him and i still dont want to know him

I hope we dont have illiterates alone and lay men in this nairaland. Everything you over hyped. Why all these uproar. 2.5 tril in a quarter and just #10tril or at most #12tril by next calendar yr. Tax not reducted, servicing of huge debts of the nation not reducted. Out of the approx yr sale of #10-#12 tril, the fed govt wil get 60% (5-6tril) while the 36 states/lga will share below around 4trill which amounts to about #100 bill per state although not equally shared since wealthy oil states of Akw. Bayl, delta and co will get at least 4times that amt. Just take note no tax and debts services payment reduction, no money for savings, no subsidy removal yet in the above calculated. The said money for the state wil not come to the figure i put it because all the above dectuctions are yet to be made. It is not just what you think. Worst now that a huge chonk of the money is going to militarisation and rebuilding of the darling called NE. The budget will still not be under #6tril. Dont count ur chicken b4 they are hatch. I hope also there are huge sums coming from customs/Firs but it is not yet eldarado. Hope we get it right this time. Just trust God and not your Buh.
