If it is ‘No Stress’ for Makonde to pay N70k as he claims, he should understand that the word ‘Minimum’ gives All Governors and even the central Govt the latitude to pay more, where they can afford to. They do not all have to go for the minimum. Minimum means MINIMUM. Regardless of the new Law, any State Govt, Parastatal or organisation is at liberty to elect to adopt even N250k as its minimum, if it so chooses and can afford it! ![]() ![]() |

Respect and honour woman as such, and she will develop accordingly, she will become what you see in her, you thereby uplift your whole nation! Always bear this in mind as you chart your course in life and it will be strewn with roses and abundant blessings as opposed to negative karmic threads which may bind you for long periods of your life! |

Kobojunkie: You keep telling people to ‘Use Your Brain’ as if you yourself have ANYTHING between your ears! ![]() ![]() Are you a Lawyer? Where and when were you called to the Bar to have the audacity of describing the Supreme Court’s pronouncement as an illegality? You’re either sooo much smarter than all the Justices or just another loudmouth slowpoke who should keep his mouth shut in a public discourse! ![]() ![]() 1 Like |

Kobojunkie: Does it make sense for people like you to seek to maintain the Status Quo (which is demonstrably an illegality) simple because your IMAGINATION suggests to YOU and ONLY YOU and your co-travellers that the SUPREME COURT OF THE LAND may be introducing another illegality. What makes you think you’re wiser than the Supreme Court Justices? ![]() ![]() |

Kobojunkie: Your comment in bold is nothing but balderdash! ![]() Talking about Section 162, are you claiming to be more knowledgeable or wiser than the Supreme Court Justices? ![]() If you realise that the State Governors have been bearing down on the LG Administrations and stealing funds meant for them, shouldn’t we rejoice that someone with balls has introduced legislation to clip their wings and allow the LGs to breathe? Why must you wish for the status quo to remain merely because you think the FG wants more power….more power to do what exactly? ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Why must he name something big after Achebe? Was Achebe the twin brother of Soyinka? Even if he was, do they both have to swim the same waters in life? Perhaps people like you should have insisted that Soyinka should also have died when Achebe was called home. What a ridiculous demand on the President!! ![]() ![]() 3 Likes 1 Share |

WikeTheDrunk: Did you not understand that funds will now be channeled directly to the ELECTED Local Govt Administrators? How does the State Governor come into the matter again? To implement what? ![]() |

What a load of trash! ![]() Why didn’t they use your so-called EndSars anger to support Sowore who was a more worthy Activist with a large following from ALL sections in the 2019 Presidential elections and was also running for President in 2023? ![]() Truth is …the Obidient Movement is a sectional agitation (with a tint of IPOB support) geared towards the attainment of a President of Ibo extraction. EndSars itself was later turned into a sectional political agitation….hence, Nnamdi Kanu could be heard shouting on video that the rioters should Kill, Kill , Kill them All.

SpecialAdviser: Nigeria can NEVER be divided peacefully….therefore Nigerians have to learn to live together peacefully and harmoniously! Nigeria is just like America…they may have dividing tendencies (Republicans against Democrats, etc.) but they cannot break up because the consequences would be dire and unimaginable….husbands turning against wives, brothers against sisters, etc. The earlier we realise this, the better for millions of our citizenry who are living in abject poverty while the well-to-do are distracting them with talk of break-up, sit-at-home and all sorts of rubbish instead of focussing on their education and lifting the populace out of poverty! ![]() |

God1blessBiafra: Every Region or Tribe has something that they bring to the table but Nigeria is a developing country in which many of the available resources are yet to be fully tapped and exploited. It does not mean that others bring nothing to the table. When the country operated Regional government, every region had something to bring to the table and things worked fine until the military struck! As of this moment, Oil is the main resource that every part of the Nation depends upon. Gold may be discovered in abundance in Benue State tomorrow or other minerals may be discovered in the South West tomorrow in sufficient quantities to feed the entire nation, then they can all tap into that to feed everybody. That is what being Your Brother’s Keeper is all about. A section of the country should not plan to run away with what can feed the entire country….that is nothing but self-centredness, selfishness and short-sightedness! As for what is good and desirable that you wrote about, imagine your sister wanting to marry her sweetheart whom she loves very much (that’s good and desirable) but if the guy is broke or a scrounger, that wouldn’t help put food on the family table, neither will it assist her in sending her junior ones to school if that assistance is needed. So, what is good or desirable is not always what is best all round for all concerned! Think about that. Goodbye! ![]() |

God1blessBiafra: Yes, of course it’s all because of Resources….better realise that. There are over 200 million people inhabiting the geographical space called Nigeria without sufficient “exploited resources” to go round. I don’t want my people to starve, you don’t want your people to starve, nobody wants their people to starve. So, you better believe it’s all about sharing of resources. So, Kanu cannot expect to take the resources which everyone is presently sharing without getting one hell of a fight. That’s the plain truth….better believe it!! ![]() ![]() |

God1blessBiafra: Kanu was reported to have declined the Offer of a Biafra without parts of the South South. This gives the impression that he’s only interested in the Oil resources of those States. That’s where the problem lies because the rest of Nigeria (particularly the North) will Never allow him to go with the Oil resources while they languish in abject poverty. Check it….in case you’re too young to understand what is involved! ![]() ![]() |

God1blessBiafra: Is South South part of your so-called Biafra? Have you conducted a Referendum to ascertain which States wish to be part of your Biafra? What makes you think all your neighbours (with established Oil & Mineral resources) wish to be part of your Biafra? Are they sooo dumb that they cannot manage their own resources without being part of your Biafra? ![]() Are the Igbos willing to break away from Nigeria without the other South South States that do not wish to be part of your Biafra? These are questions you should address. I do not believe that majority of people are “afraid” to have a Nigeria without Igboland! ![]() ![]() 1 Like |

Kukutente23: That bolded part of your post tells a lot about YOU and your infantile reasoning. I don’t waste my time with people who get their information from second-hand story-telling sources. When you post in a public forum, be very careful before bragging about anything….because you KNOW NOT who you talk to. Goodbye! ![]() |

Kukutente23: My friend, let me repeat this for the last time…..OBJ was NEVER popular in the South-West during his entire Presidency ….he was imposed on the entire country in 1999. Anyone with a sense of history will tell you that! ![]() Btw, since you talked about age, I can already surmise that you were not even born when OBJ was imposed on Nigeria in 1999. So, I can only feel some pity for you bcuz that’s the story they related to you during your story-telling gatherings in your villages. Waste of precious time discussing this with people who were in kindergarten at the maternal time! ![]() 1 Like |

Kukutente23: You were asked a simple Question….how did Atiku save Tinubu from OBJ/PDP onslaught on the South-West governors in 2003 when OBJ was NEVER accepted in any State in the South-West at that time? ![]() Were YOU present where the Rigging machinery was being oiled and put in motion? ![]() Yet you’re prepared to SWEAR to it bcuz some story-teller “mentioned” it a number of times and was simply IGNORED for making claims without logical reasoning! Is it by committing an ILLEGALITY (RIGGING) that you save someone in a Democracy? Of course, Atiku’s assertion simply had to be ignored as Nonsense, which it was. Hwvr, die-hard Northern lackeys can believe whatever makes them feel good….it’s totally inconsequential. ![]() ![]() |

IfnobeGod20: Meandering? ![]() ![]() Someone you claim was inconsequential in the politics of the South West in 2007, yet he carried the entire South West to abandon the party they had nortured for years and MERGE it with another group to form a most viable RULING party for eight years AND COUNTING….. You shouldn’t need a story-teller like Atiku to convince you about who had the political wherewithal to move the political machinery of the South-West even back in 2006/7 because it was the turn of the North to produce a President. Atiku can tell his stories to the Marines for all I care! Discerning individuals are in no doubt as to who helped whom! ![]() 3 Likes 1 Share |
