Then let any Local Government Chairman come say "There's No Money" we go reset him head.

God bless lateef Fagbemi
Let me be warming up for a fight with my irresponsible LG chair

PsaIm:
Now it's time to hold your Local government chairman responsible for you village underdevelopment

Precisely. No more blaming Tinubu or FG.

As good as this LG autonomy is, Obidients will rather its opposition bcs it is Tinubu. Regionalism and true federalism in motion for their easy realisation of Biafra but bcs it is Tinubu, they will rather die slaves in Nigeria than have their Biafra while Jagaban is the president. Hypocrisy

These bots keep changing moniker just for monthly peanut. Awon alainiselapa

If this works, people would be more concerned about local government elections than state and federal.

Story for the deities. Even if LG s are funded directly, governors will still ask them to refund the money or send 80% to them. They won't have a choice but do it.

Nobody knows the agreement they had with governors before the governors helped them to win elections. The only way to cut off LGs from governors is to take away LG elections from state governors.

They would vote Obi by themselves

A sensible government would. have opened. a brand new prison before the direct payment

And you think you made any sense?

In another post, some persons questioned the ission by an Obidient that Tinubu is doing well and I wondered why we operate on extremes.
If Obi does well, commend him.
If Tinubu does well, commend him and if he fails, criticize him.
I have always been critical of APC as Buhari left us a sour taste. I even believe APC rigged the last elections, but you cannot but commend Tinubu’s reforms. I swear you can’t.

From A.G’s pronouncement on Local Government to tax reforms, power reforms, Ports coming alive (Onne Port) etc. You see a clear departure from Buhari’s style. He is more involved, show better understanding of economic dynamics atleast from his last media chat. He also has shown he is more of a liberal, he no carry religion for head like Buhari.

While I have reservations on his approach to removing subsidy, I’ll be lying if I say the inflation hasn’t slowed down with the economy showing signs of recovering.

Buhari been mess this country and I hated APC for it. APC faithfuls should be humble enough to it we wasted 8 years. They also should be able to apologize for campaigning against Jonathan’s plan to remove subsidy.

In real life, no one cares about "effort" but results. As far as the "reform" has no positive effect in the life of the citizenry, he has done nothing.

I'm an Obedient and I this laudable progress in our democratic system. Sometimes, the problem is with the ers. Great initiatives are always welcomed. The Obedient movement isn't a political party, it's a revolution that have come to stay.

You have to see beyond your nose to understand this movement, hence your naive line of reasoning

We seek the progress of Nigeria just as you do too, the only difference is in our ideology. While we praise the laudable achievement in this regards, we'll continue to mount pressure and constructively criticise the government of the day where we deem fit

Hope this have helped you to get solace as we approach the end of the year

Peace!

Direct funding for Local Government Councils is not the needed political restructuring.
You ask for regional government system without fiscal federalism/resource control because of gas and crude oyel proceeds from the Niger delta region. Wayo. Fraudulent. Tinubu resorts to Tax Reforms to benefit only his SW zone. The lopsided political structure will enable north to upturn whatever Reforms Tinubu put in place when he leaves office.
When Tinubu leaves office, you will revive your Oduduwa Republic agitation.

Very emotional set of people, their sense of judgement and emotion has really becloud their reasoning.

No matter what Tinubu do, they will always hate him and good thing is , some of them are getting the memo by seen things the way it should.

Tinubu should hurry o
The Area Councils in Abuja are just dead. Refuse and dirt everywhere, bad internal street roads, very poor sanitation, dirty markets. Omg

Keep shut! Shameless propagandist.

It's time for local governments chairmen to start moving in convoys with hundreds of aid made up of family and close friends.

40% of the funds will be budgeted for cost of governance. The remaining 50% will be for salary payments toward an overblown payroll full with cronies and family with majority not even residing or spending in the LGA.

The 10% will be for ineffective, mushrooms projects like purchasing of keke, buying wheelbarrows, renovating health care center without equipments and essential drugs. For those who choose to buy expensive equipments and amenities, they'll be lack of trained health care staff which in the long run those things become a waste.

Oh the schools! Yeah they'll be renovation of some class room blocks here and there, overblown staffers which are not qualified for they're own chairman goodwill, hell even some buying of books, uniform or payment of waec here and there at 3x the original cost...


All in all, it'll just lead to a newer sharing of money in the grassroots among few cronies, it'll even be better if the money is circulated there in the grassroots but no those chairman will rather invest in estates in state capitals, build businesses in Lagos, build private schools in state capital rather than the LGA and end up circulating the wealth in another location.

No innovative thinking, no effective health/education investment and staff welfare, agricultural investment would be for personal gain. And when they decide to do empowerment they'll rather share money and food, no innovative long term plans.... This my people is how an average Nigerian leader think.

Then people of that LG are fools if they allow it

Oshin56:
can you hold them responsible, let them start collecting the allocation that's when you will know that average Nigerian are corrupt...

Its still better that the fund go round 777 people than just 36

Won't change anything. The governors will still control the money.

While I appreciate your concern, I’d address same.

First, results are not always immediately seen for certain reforms.

Secondly, for reforms as local government autonomy, the best Federal Government can do is what it has just done, “pay money direct to them.” What else would you advise the Federal Government do?

Certain reforms are yielding. Power for instance has improved tremendously in my area. 12-6am and 3-7pm. Sometimes it’s 11am to 6pm. Revenues have shored up and more money is paid to State as per allocation.

Reforms on VAT is being fought against, but the government is stamping its foot. Buhari’s government will never do that level of restructuring.

My question to you is, what major reform you think you’d do that will yield result in less than 2 years?

Yorubas are not igbos that are using Biafra agitation as a bargaining tool. How serious are they with the unpopular oduduwa clamour, tell me? Compare to the political Biafra agitation? For Tinubu to even have the gut to start with these regionalism reforms tells u that the Yorubas are more serious about resource control and fiscal federalism than even your region. Jonathan and igbos had the opportunity for good six years to implement resource control for their oyel bla bla, did he do it? Did the igbos agitate for any Biafra during his regime? Instead it was looting galore. A Yoruba man now has the gut to confront your almighty North, beginning with LG autonomy, Tax reform, State police and more to come, which the North see as affront to them. You are here yarning nonsense, even encouraging the North to cancel the reforms that can birth true and fiscal federalism cum resource control. E dey easy to implement it straight forward like that and your daft Jonathan couldn't even attempt anything resembling it in his six years in power? Imagine people we share south with, praying the North should come and cancel what they have been agitating for and don't have the political power to do when they were even in power. Someone not even from the oyel region is even trying to achieve it and u are condemning him. Oloshi

Lols...your sentiment shared.

How does all these change the facts that the economy has been battered? Can a market woman that uses just 2k to prepare a pot of soup before now understand your story? As far as the reform has not impacted the life of a common man positively,he has done nothing.No one reward effort but results

U see, u by urself said u are obEdient, but my message was for obIdient. Obidients are igbos emilokan.
They have no interest in Nigeria, they only want to have opportunity to get presidency and loot Nigeria to revamp SE. Emefiele is a case study. Obidients are Obi zombie loyalists, 100% igbos and can never see anything bad in him, so far he is the only sureress and easiest way igbo can get that seat. ObEdient that u claim u are, are good Nigerians who want true change for the country but believe it can be through any good leader not necessarily Peter Obi. So in summary all Obidients are igbos and Obi zombies but not all ObEdients are igbos and Obi ers.

It is easy to jail your local government chairman if he/she failed to deliver dividend of democracy

Nightmare over 5%ters? APC has won 3 elections without them and the fourth one coming
