Egbon, you don't know dayokanu? He's a Kabiyesi. Ekun oko awon omo Igbo. One man riot that used to give flateeno a run for their money. He's been here since 2005 or 2006. He's a Vet.

Many people have left. Politics section is no longer interesting anymore since veterans left. Smallies and I-POD youths have taken over now.


I'm also getting tired as well, it's a tedious exercise trying to rouse people pretending to be in la la land.....

Use to just glance in & just prop up the "Like" quota of people speaking my mind till a break early this year coupled with the BS i see in Fed civil service & the kind of daylight robbery going on all day EVERYDAY got me commenting to pass time.....

You hope to engage in robust & balanced discuss (even if partisan) but you end up feeling like sending sopana & ara to people!!! Curses & insults cos rational & sound judgement is alien to them...

Baby leave will soon be over & real life will continue..

Ngozi elete ponmo. Ngozi iyawo tupacshakur.

She was serving in Osogbo then yet she was bashing Osun State on a daily basis. It got to an extent that someone asked for the hospital where she was serving, maybe he wanted to pay her a divine visitation.

She saw the writing on the wall and deleted her moniker without returning.

Her parents would have been disappointed if they learnt she was attacked because she bought an unnecessary job for herself on internet.

She's left.

Brilliant input.

However, before we heap the blame solely on those working in the civil service - I think it will be better to know the total number of workers employed by the state and the cumulative wages they earn monthly vis-a-vis the recurrent expenditure, to determine the actual percentage they contribute to the recurrent expenditure.

Also, what other aspect of government spending contributes to recurrent expenditure in the Nigerian context?

I agree that Nigeria's excessive dependence on oil is a big problem. Ditto the structure of the country. And like I posited in the past: Nigeria is a poor country cos the money the country makes from oil is too meagre to cater effectively to the huge population. However, that doesn't absolve these governors from blame. You can't run a government on deficit and the beauty of good governance is about being proactive, prudent, and the ability to make the electorate feel the impact of effective governance. Once you start running a deficit and incurring unnecessary debts - with nothing to show for it - it is only matter of time before everything will come crashing down.

Furthermore, I'm sure there are a lot state departments/ministries that are dormant and are really of no use...why can't they scrap them?

They cant scrap those dormant ministries because of the people who work there who would be unemployed that would raise hell and make the ruling party lose elections.

When Buhari delayed ministerial list and even pruned it down many people were already complaining that. There is no money in town. That the money budgeted to ministries would trickle down in form of money for PA, DG, perm secs, hiring of staffs etc

So if a budget of say 100M was allocated to a ministry before they think of any project they have to remove the money for salary and travels/training. Its whatever is left that would go to projects (ignoring that they are stealing). The cost of governance is so damn high and not sustainable

Those 6 months we didnt have ministers in Nigeria that we raised hell, Do you know how much in salary was saved? The truth is the people that really do the work are usually about 10, the rest are just there to fill constitutional quotas

When growing up I knew a friend whose mom was employed by FEDECO(INEC of the 2nd republic) the ministry was no longer in existence but she was still collecting the salary till the mid 90's almost 15yrs after the scraping of FEDECO while she would resume to her shop and still collect salary

Nigeria is a very complex country I tell you

Let me give you an example. When Akala was voted out in Oyo state he set a landmine for the incoming Ajimobi by hiring many people with the intention of dumping their financial burden on the coming govt on top of little resources

Brother mii, it wasn't as bad as they painted the town.

Most of us believed SE is Seoul until Oodua Insurgents directed their satellite to SE. Make I no lie, I enjoyed those Insurgents dudes. They are so many and no one knows them. They made us realize South East is not Paris but towns like every other towns in Nigeria.

Those who have travelled abroad don't do d1ck comparision, as far as they are concerned the entire Nigeria is ghetto including Abj and Lag.

Chino is a clown, the dude is crazy. He evetually had a truce with Oodua Armed Forces and the whole issue died down. Problems started again when a smallie called customishitt went to take pics of ghettos in Ikeja and post in nl. That was when round two started which led to the creation of EOD(Eastern Operative Department). Last year was crazy. It was crazy mehn.

The civil service is really more of a welfare package as it stands now,the government know they will have mutiny on their hands if they don't try & absorb some of the populace....

Power problem killed so many industries that would have been employers of millions, & ensured that international FCMG all hightail it to neighboring WA countries. ...

Fast forward to his service year, he worked his PPA to said company who had promised to retain him cos he has On the Job Experience, has a degree & has been tested..... He got in only to be told the coy was relocating to Ghana cos the cost of Diesel was honna break the balls of the company....

However, something has to give and desperate times requires desperate measures. In saner climes, government agencies/ministries are run like business ventures - not charity. Except when it's welfare. And since there are no welfare programmes involved - the dormant ministries have to go. They can't keep running recurrent expenditure at a deficit, else the whole system will collapse and go bankrupt - and once that happens, they will have to do it, won't they?

Also, about Yoruba states employing all and sundry from everywhere in the federation. If there's no quota system in place for state governors to employ folks from other states/regions - I believe they need to start doing it based on what other regions are doing. If there are only 10 Yorubas working in state ministries across the SE - there should be only 10 Igbos across state ministries in the SW. We can't keep incurring debts to run our states, while other states are free from debts. Yorubas are the ones liable for the debts - not Nigeria. Unless FG will pay back the debts.

Let me leave the state workforce alone for now. What are the aspects of government spending that contribute to recurrent expenditure in the Nigerian context? Also, a lot of these governors are utterly corrupt and wasteful. They need to put their excesses in check and deliver good governance. The truth is that: apart from Lagos - there's next to nothing going on in these other states. So is low oil prices the excuse they're going to keep giving for the next four years, while piling up huge debts?

Aug 3 Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari aims to cut recurrent expenditure in next year's budget in order to prioritise development projects, the presidency said in an emailed statement on Monday.

Recurrent expenditure has ballooned over the years and capital spending shrunk to just 12 percent of the 2015 budget, approved in May at an assumed oil price of $53 a barrel.

"In carrying out its role in surveillance of the economy, review and appraisal of policies, the (National Planning) Commission should devise a plan for a realignment of the budget so that capital projects can be really prioritized," Buhari was quoted as saying.

Due to the slump in global oil prices, Africa's biggest crude producer has been hit hard as oil sales account for about 70 percent of government revenues.

Some of these governors Like Akande Aregbe and Fayemi were thinking if they provide infrastructures like road it would make the state attractive to investors but building up infrastructure would have to be at the expense of recurring expenditures

I dont know what else constitute recurring expenses aside salaries

Due to none development of other sectors, the govt is the highest employer of labour and in truth its more like just dashing money out a welfare system for salaries and pension

I have been to all the five eastern states, they are just like a normal Nigerian towns. but those guys like living in self denial, they can only deceive themselves and the gullible ones that haven't been to their Land, I always wonder now that where are these iboe boys trooping From? because they don't use to be much before.
that customized Own is Ibadan matter he will be masturbating. I remembered when ilugunboy told him to meet him. the idiot was just beating round the bush.
small iboe boys claiming to own estates in Lagos, where as, in reality they are nothing. idiot was busted when he took pictures of his hand (was wearing 300 watch) grin

@shymm3x ,

That's the thing, The Civil Service is a packaged welfare system designed to look like active duty..


Ain't nothing happening in 90% of government offices..

Come to Abuja, you'll see Nigerian wonder, Agencies of govt occupying the 2nd floor of a residential building & only a 3rd bother to be punctual & regular & some even if you want to work dem nor send u message..

My younger sis' office was a rented bungalow that they have been evicted from since a yr+ ago & the salary hasn't stopped neither is the govt aware that the bosses are just balling on govt dime....

As long as NASS is getting their cut, appropriation of funds for its mgt is not going to stop...

Told her a few days ago that we should place a bet , that before this month runs to an end, an office space will magically appear, hope to win...
