barcanista: I have a personal question for you and all others asking for true federalism. Have you ever been to northern Nigeria before? People are too poor for you to take their only source of survival from them. They will fight you till you finish them or they finish you. Nigerians need cheap electricity. We do not need federal government workers. Buhari should follow Ben Bruce's advice and cut public servants income. This should be the very first thing he does as his new government begins. After three months, he should implement the Steve oronsaye's report. The extra savings from firing government staff can then be spent on infrastructure like dams for agriculture and electricity. Capital expenditure will lead to massive employment in the semi skilled labour market. Electricity and agriculture are the keys to a prosperous Nigeria. When the price of oil rises again, he can the use the sovereign wealth fund account to save money for the country. Buhari has already affirmed that he is going to look into the subsidy fraud so a lot of savings will be discovered by this action. We need refineries but we may not be able to afford them right now. We should have made hay when the sun was shining. Right now, we are belt tightening so we are in a restructuring phase and our bloated civil service just has to be reduced. When our real economy is booming, the SS can demand for resource control. Ur idea on scrapping the amnesty program is plain insanity and I can see that you are truly an enemy of progress. |

PassingShot: APC was against CONFAB because it came at a point when ASUU was on strike and school students where ahome. ASUU were asking for 9B Naira, yet GEJ spent 7B Naira on CONFAB. It was a travesty. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

PassingShot: nawa for APC and her "smart" chaps... Whynotthetruth : Aregbesola has shown it by his inept dependence on oil alone just like Rochas of IMO state too...so also others...and more so, they are against the confab that did a quasi restructuring of the system... More reason, the north wanted Jonathan out so as to kill the report implementation... PassingShot: The SW has always been the vanguard of campaign for true federalism from time immemorial and evidence abound. So, stop making it sound otherwise. APC was against the confab for suspicions of hidden agenda of PDP/GEJ and not because of opposition to true federalism. Lastly, drop the idea of "the north wanted Jonathan out". The fact is that GEJ failed beyond pardon and he was voted against by Nigerians. If he performed to just above average of his promises, he would have remained a president even if all the Tinubus and the whole north didn't want him. Whynotthetruth : APC is against resource control too as they are against regionalism...hence the reason the north wanted Jonathan out to avoid any chance of its implementation... and they cashed in on jagaban thirst for power and his people bandwagon allegiance to APC as their own party... I have addressed this here: PassingShot: The SW has always been the vanguard of campaign for true federalism from time immemorial and evidence abound. So, stop making it sound otherwise.

Whynotthetruth: Even if you say it 20 times a lie will never become the truth. Rochas came out to deny the links claiming he owed teachers for 13 months. What you fail to understand is that since 2013 GEJ stopped allocating 5-7B per month to Imo state as it used to be. Rochas said he started receiving 2-3B. Same with Amaechi and even Aregbesola complained as well. That is why the FG has to shoulder most of the brunt. The 36 states only share 26% of Nigeria’s revenue. FG gets 52%. If revenue is dwindling then the FG is to blame for the gross mismanagement. 1 Like |

[quote author=obi4eze post=33501738]Mr Barcanista, I can see that you are beginning to change a bit. Well I don't care if you jump ship because I already know who you are. Now to the issue on ground. You did well to state the way forward but you did not really highlight the failures of this government. The economy under this administration has not seen the light of day. Good luck Jonathan has been wasteful and plunged Nigeria into debt, which now stands at more than 50 billion dollars. Gen Buhari will have a lot of work to do and you can't talk about a present without a past. He would have to clean up the mess and rot in the system. He would need capable hands to help revamp the economy and sustain it. His social welfare program is laudable and if done in phases, it would be a huge success. Corruption, if fought to a stand - still, will ensure that project funds are not lost to looters. I have a firm belief in him that he would change things for better. I will be patient with him and pray for his success in governance. God bless GMB. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. [/quote I hardly have the motivation to comment on posts on social media, but I was hyper-compelled to comment and commend your sense of reasoning and rare analytical prowess. At some point, I couldn't help but think that every young person out there was void headed. I agree with you that the future is bright with Gen. Buhari (rtd) at the helm. We can only be patient and give him all the supports he needs to succeed. 1 Like |
