A step in the right direction but they still need to do more. They should also slash their allowances. Tinubulation effect going round. Person wey build Lagos, e reach to build naija, cement finish.

cement no finish o, na fatigue o

I also thought they will empower INEC to conduct LG elections.

Absolutely

Why didn't they allow INEC to conduct the elections, the move is just wasting of resources, time and financial
The elections need to be conducted the same day as scheduled for the governorship election. The LG ballots paper and boxes are the only things to be added.
The people are bent to wastage of taxpayer money . Indeed Nigerian senators I hail thee.

Paraman:
It's likely going to be a federal agency in charge of holding LG elections.

It's a good move in my own opinion.

Una don hear abi una go need Vuvuzela

It's common sense. The protest would be hijacked. Some people only want to hide behind protest and do whatever plans they had in mind for quite some time. Better not to protest at all.

The Kenyan youths that have been protesting for some weeks now, how many investors have they sent away from their country? Isn't that going to cost job loss?

How about the destructions of properties which the business owners are still counting their loses.

Abi untimely deaths of Kenya youths all in the name of this protest.

We can't be complaining of hardship and add more hardship to the already on ground

ogbeni cut the crap! People are hungry . Ebi npa awon ara ilu.
The protest must hold .

slimfit1:
Recall the house of Parliament don't. Tinubu can't do anything if we don't install lawmakers that are ready to question both the good and the bad policies. Even Obi would have struggled. Laws create jobs, our laws are not been enforced because the lawmakers don't want to be caught by the laws they are making. Go and recall your senators and representatives.

I didn't hear these in 2012 why am I hearing this now? Protest is in evitable. An hungry they say is an angry man. Though I supported Tinubu election doesn't mean I have keep silent like a fool. Time is now

trytillmake:

Cause they have good wingers and midfield, unlike England,

England also have good wingers and midfielders , the major problem is the coach inability to get the best out of the players through team spirit.

SQLmastar:
Benching palmer was not a bad strategy. Every team needs a "joker" who is introduced in time of need. Palmer should be brought in around 50 or 60 minutes.
His shortcomings were:

1. Playing Foden and Bellingham together. (both players are roamers)
2. Keeping Kane on the pitch for too long
3. Playing Trent Alexander as a DMF (though he corrected this later on)

Palmer is the most informed attacker in the england squad and he suppose to be among starting XI.
His trial and error tactics failed him and I believed he's longer than the one who is to be experimenting .

The mistake southgate has made in the EURO 2024 was not starting the informed players like Palmer, Watkins and Gordon, Rice and Bellingham played abysmal though i think its owing to fatigue, having played nearly all minutes in the tournament
I knew benching Kane is a hard decision to take but he should have courage to do the needful for the benefit and success of the team

All the same ,well done southgate, the best manager england had so far, wishing you a brilliant success in your future endeavors

Cmanforall:


You mean the guy the people voted sold the mandate for money?
What would have happened if he refused or had gone to the court?

Yeah but he didn't sell it, he was silenced with the money since he has no money to claimed his victory in the court also the state judiciary are the one to judge the case, which are already in the pockets of the state governor

Cmanforall:


Or electronic transmission of results.
It's easier at LG level. Everybody knows their Ward's result and can easily be added up to know who actually wins

You are right but if the REC conduct the election, sope Otis lo. .
We had experience it in our local government before, in which the incumbent chairman refused to perform and the commuter decided to vote him out as he's contesting for the second term.
On the election day, we voted for another candidate and won when we added results of the wards together even squarely, but when the result were announced by the REC it was the incumbent that won , the governor called him and gave him brown envelope to shut up or else......
That's how it was swept under the carpet

To largely extent, the ex- governor was right and what made him to be sure of what he's saying is that fact that the LG election would be conducted by REC which is control by the governor.

I have been saying this right from the day of the judgement that the best way to go is to allow INEC to conduct the LG elections and should be scheduled the same day as the governorship elections. Though the governor may have impact in some LG to not all.

ElevationD:
How?

The only reason why things never work can be found in the I-don’t-care attitude of the citizens. Nigerians are easily able to digest all the recklessness of the political class and yet praise them to the highest heavens.

If we must practice democracy, we must follow up in all the sense of it. We watch other democratic nations talking about their local councils. We see how local councils benefit the citizens. One wonders how governors, past and present, sermonize us on how allowing local governments run appropriately would not work.

We already know that Nigerian politics is godfather based. We know that even a Presidential candidate needs some powers that be to help him get there, how much less a governor and other political office holders. Who holds most of them by the scruff of their necks when they assume office? Even the President is checkmated by the National Assembly. So what’s Fayose talking about state assemblies? He can fool some including himself, but he cannot fool everyone. He must grow beyond his jaguda politics. A man who shortchanged his own party in the last Presidential election should not be telling us such crap. He should bow his face in shame.

We all now know that it is the law to forward local government funds directly into their accounts. We await to see that local government chairman who would forward his local government’s funds into the state government account, as a show of loyalty.

Having attained success at the Supreme Court, next would be the states to mind their areas of jurisdiction and allow local government carry out their statutory functions as spelt out by the constitution.

We would like to see INEC conducting local government elections and not state electoral commissions. We saw the examples last weekend with Adamawa and Delta states, where the ruling parties won the entire seats. That’s the loophole for governors to hold local governments by the jugular. With INEC, all parties would participate and equitable representation would be guaranteed all citizens.

We would expect EFCC and ICPC to be very active in the local governments, formulating policies that would protect the resources for development in their accounts.

Absolutely spot on💪

koondog:
Democrats behaves like Yorubas, as in deceptive, skilled in propaganda, piting one group against another. Big on socialism, taxation, borrowing and spending. Also two-faced people, promote single mother households and liberalism/agboroism.

While Republicans behave like Igbo people, very straight forward, don't wish anyone evil, believe in fairness and justice, capitalism, cutting cost, low taxes and pro business . Promote two parent households and conservative lifestyle.

Congratulations! You have succeeded in disunify the westerners and easterners, you can take it to any bank and collect any amount you feel can better you life .
Keep deceiving yourself thinking you are wise

Kai no be sugar dey cause diabetes o, though a diabetic patient would be advised to abstain from sugar .

Hakeemoyegoke:
What gauranty do we have that the local government chairman if elected will not conieve with the governor to loot money that was meant to develop the local government. Even if they have autonomy they will still loot the whole allocation without any significant project to help the people.

We are talking about grassroot where people are very close to the local government Secretariat , hence the people won't hesitate to hold the elected officers accountable if they refuse to perform

oluseyiforjesus:
LGA election will be more serious now

Only if INEC conduct the election particularly on the same day governorship election scheduled to be held, more importantly, it must be credible and fair. Anything apart from these is a counterfeit.

Oshin56:
forget all those governor's are criminally intelligent, they will make sure that it's there candidate that will be winning local government chairman...

The LG elections need to be conducted the same day governorship election is scheduled to be be conducted.
No more imposition of LG chairman and ward councilors

adioolayi:
Wow!!!

Well done AGF..Lateef Fagbemi SAN!

Well done to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu..


Any State Governor that cannot ensure the LG elections are conducted when they are suppose to be conducted, have no business getting allocations for the LG in that State..Period!!!

The LG elections need to be conducted the same day governorship election is scheduled to be be conducted.
No more imposition of LG chairman and ward councilors

Your madness has gone beyond cure.
It's attention you're seeking,no body will give it to you.
Keep fooling yourself

You have already given him the said attention by just quoting him.
He won by the way

Wike, the killer of PDP in the federal level. What next? Nailing the coffin?

All this owing to greediness of ATIKU to want to be president after 8 years of northerner, Buhari.

Wike keep winning

The protest shouldn't stop, keep the fire burning , their promises is just to give people false hope . Please don't fall for this tactic, no price is gonna reduce.
The first thing to ask them is how will they achieve it, which is not part of the write up.

This government are proving smarter every time.


The protests have come to stay!!!

peteofi:
It is clear that someone in government is backing this Ekpa. Just too obvious

No government is backing him, he's only afraid of losing the money and reputation he has been enjoying , if MNK surprisingly released.

He's only proving smarter.

They have been brainwashed with the aid of juju. That N20 was to buy pure water on their way to hell cos they won't get that when they reach hell.
Unfortunate people

OLUWATOBILOBA (God is the biggest KING)

Who is going to win the presidential election in 2027

Nobody other than President Tinubu, though I'm no more supporting him as it stand until Nigerians are feeling the positive impact of his policies
On the Topic
Let the looting continues

perfri:
Of course Tinubu knew he would fumble much worse than this, that's why he did not go for any debate and was even delegating questions that he should answer to his supporters who eventually became his ministers in that interview at chatham house, yet 8 million people still voted him into office. The root cause of this is illiteracy & poverty

Some of you still don't know why Tinubu won, simply because he has paid his dues to the highest bidder, nothing more

Attending presidential debate in Nigeria should be passed in national assembly and enact into law. Enough of presidential debate boycott, this will further reveal the ability strength and propose performance of incoming president

Whenever you want to buy anything from a shop most especially the ibos shop, please ask for the owner of the shop before you make payment for any goods purchased , e ger why


A fried narrated how he paid twice money for a single goods. According to him, ..... Went to buy electrical materials from a store at Oshodi, when he entered the shop went straight to pick the items he wanted buy, a guy walked up to him with a calculator asking him if he hd finished selection, that they should account for the items and pay because he need to attend to other customers , in a nut shell, he paid the guy and told him he wanted to write the receipt of what he paid for no.knowing that the guy had left. When he didn't see him coming back he decided to go since he didn't need the recept in the first place. As he was about to stepped out, another guy call him back
shop owner : Oga you never pay for the goods nah, Abi you want to to shout thief ni?
My friend ; how many times I go pay nah? Your second don collect moni
Shop owner ; my second key? Abi you be thief, I no get second o, na only me dey shop, oya wey your receipt?
My friend ; (narrated everything) how he paid a guy
Shop owner ; I don't know anybody o, I'm the shop owner and no one works for me.

That's how he refused to allow him go with the goods, since there wasn't received to show for it, he had no choice than to pay for the goods again because the other ibo had started calling him thief and what to beat him up.

I fear person wey no fear ibo. Some are very wicked.
