The dictator is not comfortable with democratic laws and would want to change it to take people's businesses and claim taxe evasion. Steal from people's bank accounts, imprison sporadically. Nigerians are leaping what they sow. 1 Like |

Tokt: Indeed they're pdp senators, the only ones left with brains in the house...people like will never see the gimmick in bubu's rubbish..let him fulfill his campaign promises first. "Boosting economy, improving power supply, shoring up the naira blaaaaah blaaaaah blaaaaah". What a complete joke, the Presidency will still deny this rubbish when NOTHING IS DONE!! He'll get the powers and channel it into fighting the opposition instead, if boooooohari has any iota of shame...he would resign but alas! An illiterate is always desperate and strong headed 1 Like |

I don't know about the contents of the bill yet, but if granting him absolute economic powers as I read above is what the bill actually implies, then there is wahala. I don't think that the present powers he enjoys handicap him from making good economic policies that will drive the nation forward if he actually wants to. Besides, there are three major things that dictators all over the world operate with: 1. Absolute Economic and Financial Powers 2. Absolute Defence and National Security Powers 3. Emergency Powers to override the Judiciary at Strategic Times If the first is given to any individual now, and the third, for instance follows suit in a matter of time, then before we know it, we would become no different from the states ruled by military dictators. I would suggest he looks for ways to improve our economic state without seeking these emergency and absolute powers in question, there is a reason it's actually called DEMOCRACY, unless we want to give it up. Second, it's not even like giving him the powers will cause an automatic turn around, it will still take a lot of time before things change. 2 Likes |

These Legislators are all cowards. The Legislative arm of government has never been reduced to nothing like now. This was how they initially kicked against Buhari's list of Ambassadors, did they not shamlessly take back their vomit by accepting the list? They may be kicking against this now just to make noise, believe me, they will still accept it. 1 Like |

This bill might go through reason are being both daraki and dogora are being accused of one shittty deal or the other, those guys will like to buy their way out and couple with the current investigation of both past and present senator s on constituency project either done or not. If buhari is going to push this is going to go through. Politics na game.think about this. But true be told if this will make us be like China and Russia I give him my full support.

saintkash: This is the surest trick to dictatorship. Adolf Hitler used it and you know what happened. Franklin Roosevelt used it in the New Deal and ruled America for four tenures (only American president to do so). It's an old trick used by dictators all over the world. Once granted such powers the legislature becomes rubber stamp. 1 Like |
