Anambra isn't an oil producing state yet it doesn't take loans & doesn't owe salary. Anambra proves that True Federalism can work in Nigeria https://mobile.twitter.com/benmurraybruce/status/743675378565185536?s=08 57 Likes 10 Shares

Tell them ooo. People who are shortsighted don't understand. This explains why the clamor for self determination is strong there. Anybody opposing self determination is a parasite. Bruce you tight my brother, nothing do you. Please be like Bruce,Bruce is smart. Don't be like Buhari...Buhari is dull. 431 Likes 39 Shares |

Ok. Bayelsa is an oil producing state, your state for that matter, and is owing 5months salaries. Can we then say, using your logic in reverse, that is proof true federalism can't work in Nigeria Mr Obamanikoro Bruce Lee?? Remember, in logic, if a statement is FACT or TRUE, then it means the "negative statement" and the "reverse outcome" would also be a FACT or TRUE. - GST 107. 162 Likes 12 Shares |

Anambra is an oil and gas producing state. I fully understand Bruce stand, as Anambra is not yet fully regarded as on oil producing state. Anyways true federalism is the best option. 31 Likes 1 Share |

I don't know why people will always focus on attacking the "messenger" instead of the "message" passed. For the past 50yrs, we have all known that oil is a course to this nation. ND and their 13% is not an exception here. All those oil producing state all have governors that are not serious about looking elsewhere. They are all bent on lavishing state funds. They all seek to be elected so that they will loot. I am not saying that the Anambra state governor or lagos state governor are not corrupt or are the best. But these two states are both none oil producing, whatever is achieved in those states so far is from their initiatives on how to generate funds in other sectors of the economy(it also boosts the economy and bring about creativity). It takes a man with zeal to think outside the box. Unlike other governors of oil producing states that seek for elections so that they will embezzle the treasury. Other rich and educated people from none oil producing states seek for political offices even when they know that the state has nothing to embezzle, it shows that they are ready to make something out of nothing and for that very fact, it will also be likened that all the 36states can survive without oil the same way these few states has been serving without loans, bail out or special derivations from sale of oil. Many state governors in Nigeria both in oil producing states and none oil producing states all depend on what will come out from the centre. They always go to sleep, knowing fully well that by the end of the month, FG will share money amongst the states and if the money is not enough, they will press for bail outs. They will owe salaries and people that are being owed by the states will blame the FG on behalf of their governors. WHY? because everyone now depends on FG. They no longer hold their governors accountable, they now hold FG. Eg, if a state governor refuses to renovate a state owned skul, instead of blaming and calling the governor to other, u will see people blaming buhari( I am not a fan of buhari, infact I hate his guts, but we must always say the truth). WHY? because our mindset is all focused on OIL and who controls The oil? The FG. And that is why all states and all Nigerians look up to FG. My question is, if FG does everything from FG > STATES > LG > COUNCILS, why then where governors, local government chairmen and councillors elected in the 1stplace? BMB just used anambra to drive home his points. He would have made reference to bayelsa, but they are already a failed state. And bring them to play in his tweet objective will only but rubbish the message he was about passing out. Anambra has been looking inward. Anambra has oil deposits (plenty to last them over the next 50yrs). Anambra also has natural gas deposits in abundance. Anambra is also blessed to survive without the two natural resources mentioned. Anambra believes that they can thread anywhere that is dreaded by others. This mindset is not just for the govt, anambra indigens believe that govt can not do anything for them to better their individual lives and that is why all is trying in his or her own little way to be industrious and successful @least to be self sufficient. An anmabra man will spit on u if u dash him money instead of teaching him how to make money. We believe that "nothing" is free on earth, more reason we work hard to achieve what we want. And that mindset of its people is helping the govt. Of anambra state. Ben bruce only want all nigerians to think like anambra people,we wants all of us to shift our focus away from oil and explore other avenues. And the best way to do that is by practising "true federalism". So that individual states will know it @ the back of their palms that if they don't work hard/smart, hunger will kill them (individuals and leaders alike). Because their won't be dependency on oil. So that electorates will clean their eyes when electing lazy and fraudulent leaders or governors. 173 Likes 21 Shares |

Early conclusion! The case of anambra state can only be attributed to good leadership! True or Holy Federalism can only work with good leadership... if not the same leaders who still embezzle now will still embezzle more whether true or fake federalism! The problem with Nigerians is that we do not think at all. you cannot just transfer a textbook theory into reality. Every theory on earth is based on assumptions! one important assumption that every theory ignores is the Nigerian problem "Corruption" No matter the theory once the leaders are corrupt it becomes useless! 19 Likes 1 Share |
