it wasnt going to happen.

Though they are 2 sides of a coin, i perceive the reps have more balls that the senate

AOB1:
Those governors have already threatened the house of rep

I knew they are not going to that bill because those governors really like that immunity and it's makes them to do anyhow.
The governors are the problem of this country but they always blame the president for their failure

hahaha 😂🤣!
LOBATAN O!
Your junior,- the Green Chamber No Fit that Law,as they don chicken out!
De Ja Vu.

These guys want to tamper with the immunity the governors have been enjoying. Shie them don baff? Who born dog?

As expected

Politicians testing the mic on the people.

Gullible Nigerians, very easily deceived.
Many believed it will go through.

Jagabandit are usually blind people. Nigeria is currently suffering from over centralization of powers in the president. If they allow this bill to it will only worsen the situation.

I did say it was rubbish 🗑.

Too many kids on Nairaland.

Hahahahaha


If you still believe in the leadership of this country at all levels, then I have a lagoon and an airport to sell for you.😁😁

Do you know why the president wasn't mentioned in the initial presentation?

tammie24:
Ibo people have been waiting to hear that it has been signed into law so they can go after the president with trumped up accusations and charges

shut up

I knew there was a mistake somewhere abi no be Nigeria again?

Shameful!

Would it have even made any significant difference? Did the absence of immunity after leaving office lead to any real consequences for former officials? In 2022, President Buhari granted presidential pardons to two convicted former governors: Joshua Dariye of Plateau and Jolly Nyame of Taraba, effectively nullifying their punishments. Similarly, in 2020, the Supreme Court overturned Orji Uzor Kalu’s conviction on technical grounds, despite his initial 12-year sentence for corruption. Several other governors- Rochas Okorocha, Ikedi Ohakim, James Ibori, Peter Odili, Lucky Igbinedion, Ayo Fayose, Abdullah Adamu, Murtala Nyako, Saminu Turaki, Sule Lamido, Ali Modu Sheriff, Danjuma Goje, the current senate president Godswill Akpabio etc have all been invited, investigated for alleged corruption and we know how it ended. Did I forget Yahaya Below who is currently undergoing trial? You can mention others if you . Lol! Does removing immunity truly guarantee ability? After all, in 2019, Adams Oshiomhole famously declared, " APC, and your sins will be forgiven," highlighting the deep-rooted culture of selective justice in Nigeria. This brings us to the core of the problem: the Nigerian judiciary, which is supposed to be an independent arm of government, is often subject to executive influence. The President should not have the power to appoint judges as this creates a system where the judiciary is indirectly controlled by the executive, undermining its role as an impartial body. Judges, who are supposed to uphold justice without fear or favour, often find themselves operating under political pressure or in environments where decisions can be influenced by those in power.Without an independent judiciary, the removal of immunity will change little. Cases will still be influenced by political interests, trials will be delayed or dismissed, and the powerful will continue to escape ability. Instead of focusing solely on immunity, Nigeria must prioritize true judicial reform where judges are appointed through an independent process, free from executive control, and where court rulings are respected without political interference. Until the judiciary operates as a truly autonomous institution, the fight against corruption and abuse of power will remain a cycle of selective prosecution and politically motivated exonerations.

It's best citizens takes law in to their hands, u can't be robbing us bling and expect immunity,
These politicians will push us to what they won't expect one day,
U wan dey thief for free abi?
China or Asian countries will and must sign these kind of bill in to law

Penguin2:
ed!

SmartPolician:
Revolution is the only thing that can change this country

And death of most politicians

FEDERAL HOUSE OF CROOKS AND CONFUSSION

Lolzzzzz 🤣

nigeria is a caricature zoo

One was wondering what they were thinking.


They should have known that stripping the Vice President, Governors and Deputy Governors of their constitutionally enshrined immunity would be a grievous anathema in a true democracy.


Again, allowing only the President to enjoy the immunity clause would have created a scenario where the affected offices would be at the mercy of the already too powerful presidency.


It's good that they have now realized their folly in their desperate attempt at pleasing the "god of Aso Rock Villa".





@hotseat

Since supreme Court told FG to pay lg directly how many states LG have they paid directly - none




Satanic country demonic apc tinubu government

Only looking for Andrew liversalt popularity

This decision nor be Tinubu again oooo

This is the only way we are going to bring about some sanity in our public space. All elected officials should be tried and convicted of their crimes even while in office. I propose that an anti-corruption court should be set up for the speedy trial of these kinds of crimes and that persons who are found guilty should be handed very long and hard sentences. I am not surprised that the HOR declined to go ahead with this bill. A leopard cannot change its skin. Periodt!

Bunch of rubber stamp mofos..people expecting to this to come in play I pity

Clout chasing

I'm laughing seriously here.
How can you remove such a thing from the almighty "governors" life ? It has always being there lifeline from the time of immemorial and for them to be doing anyhow...
