Imo State To Issue Out ID Card To Northerners In The State by teeebugs: 7:27am On Jul 04, 2014 |
Okorocha had reportedly directed northern indigenes in the state to submit themselves for identification by the state government as a way of curtailing the influx of Boko Haram insurgents to the state. But the senators said the action is unconstitutional and contravenes the rights of Nigerians, warning the state government to reverse the policy. The development was sequel to a motion sponsored by deputy Senate leader, Abdul Ningi, entitled “The issuance of identification card to Northerners residing in Imo State – Urgent call for policy reversal.” Senator Ningi argued that the policy contravenes the provisions of Section 41 (1) of the Nigerian Constitution which says, “A citizen of Nigeria is entitled to move freely throughout Nigeria and reside in any part thereof, and no citizen of Nigeria shall be expelled from Nigeria or refused entry thereto or exit therefrom”. The Senate consequently called on President Goodluck Jonathan to direct security agencies not to partner the state government in the implementation of the policy, and urged the Imo State government to rescind the policy immediately. www.monitor9ja.com

I also have problem with the ID cards, especially one which purpose is to identify none indigene. The issue of identifying Nigerians should be dealt with at national level. There would be certainly be a lot of confusion if every Nigerian is expected to have an identity card for every state he/she spends considerable time in. 1 Like |

The idiocy in government in Nigeria keeps taking a whole new dimension as time goes by. How on earth can a state government issue identity cards to non-indegenes? It reeks of quantum idiocy. Doesn't it make more sense to issue identity cards to residents or at worse indegenes rather than non-indegenes. This is called profiling and something should be done about it. The more i hear people in government talk and through their actions and inactions, i'm convinced that we're ruled by para animals. 3 Likes |

Why are you being nice about it? Rochas is a person for even thinking of this as a good idea. If it isnt his doing, then he is surrounded by morons. You got the right word for it which is; PROFILING. The truth is we are ruled by men of limited intelligence. Every state I enter shows that our entire government is riddled with a wide assortment of reetards. Their policies are all half-assed (example, the foool that thought up the new Licencing process, that person should never be a leader of cows, talkless of humans), the implementation is even worse. The people who are enlightened, exposed and educated cant even stand to be involved in politics because of the filth that lies therein. How on earth does a person think its alright to isolate one tribe for identification and ignore others? Dont they even realise that its unconstitutional? ![]() Welcome to Imo State and behold the fuckery that Berem and Abagworo are proud to show off to the world as their leader. |

Our politicians are dumb, okorocha is dumber! Simple logic will tell him that by the time the exercise started, boko haram will send delegates to also put in for the registration thereby giving them a free access and movement. The best way to protect ur city is to treat every northerner as a potential boko haram and threat....regardless!!!! ![]() 1 Like |

sCun:You must be one of the roaches who gallivant supporting idiocy in government because if you weren't you would have left a reference to where the Imo state government denied the report. Instead, you chose to embrace the idiocy that's flying around with shameless abandon. next time you wanna engage, do so wisely or hold your breadth. |

Now Rochas wants to create I.D cards for Nigerians inside Nigeria. If I may ask,what's the point of having the international passport and National identity card if people are going to be treated this way in their country? Its sad that Nigeria is a lawless country where anything goes. |

Its sad that Nigeria is a lawless country where anything goes. Just because Fashola did something obviously illegal and wrong and nobody decided to sue him and enforce their constitutional rights dont make what Rochas is doing any more illegal than it is. As it stands now, here are a list of multiple Niational Identity Cards Nigerians have; 1. International Passport 2. National I.D Cards 3. Drivers Licences. 4. Voters I.D Cards 5. Local Government Identification Card. 6. National Health Insurance Card. 7. Tax Clearance Identification Card. Now we want to add: 8. Ndi Hausa I.D Card (in Imo State and Anambra State). #SMH.. |

Well, when bizarre situations come up, bizarre solutions follow suit. I don't know whether its the best solution but I know sth drastic should be done about Hausa Fulani in the east. Apparently, Hausas are not like every citizen, anybody that takes to bloodshed in solving national issues (like opposing a president) needs unconventional measures. Sb talked about constitution but we know that giving them id card is more constitutional than killing them, as they would have done. Lol @ ndi awusa id card |
