I am surprised by your myopic mindset helinues. A member of the dishonorable honorables just disclosed the staggering amount of money they are collecting for constituency projects and instead of holding them and governors able, you will rather blame the Federal government.

Senators and house of reps are not our problems. Only the FG, the presidency

If this is true, then we should increase the rate at which we hold our lawmakers able...

This is why I refer to Tinubu as a mother-faka! He took money directly from the people and placed it in the hands of non-performing politicians. I know he is waiting for finish his tenure either 4 or 8years and at of the day, he will be 'begging for forgiveness from Nigerians, that he didn't know that's things would turn out. He had good intentions but the people surrounding him didn't make it work' - this is his game plan.
He feels he is a master planner but he is not so smart afterall. All his economic policies will fail completely. He will beg! I repeat HE WILL BEG FOR FORGIVENESS after he has ruined the country.

I have always said it times without number. The elites are uniting under one umbrella cos there is much money to share now with the removal of various subsidies and heavy taxation. It's the elites again at the massess

We should focus our frustration on Senators and Governors. These guys are bigger thieves than FG.

Both of them are thieves.
Whatever things senators are doing and getting away with, the presidency will look the other way so that when presidency wants to get its own deeds done and have some largesse and it needs to through the senate, senate also will pretend to be in and sign it.
They are fellow accomplices to each other.

In all of these things, how much are their online defenders earning...
I'm sure they are still under this thread defending them

All of you will not be against your parents if they are also receiving N2 billion or N1 billion, you will not reject the money they gave you even though you know the source, you will not tell them to reject the money, so corruption in Nigeria is from top to bottom including you yes you.

most Nigerians do not know how constituency projects work. There is nothing like "pocket"


for example if i want a road fixed or constructed as part of my constituency project, I will lobby to have it included in the budget. Often this is what people call "padding" but the money doesnt come to me. lobbying to include a constituency project in the budget is not padding neither does the money go to the senator. The contract will be executed by the relevant agency, for example by the federal ministry of works in the case of roads or REA in case of solar lights. the money goes to the relevant agency, they are the ones that award the contract. the money does not go to the senator.

personally i bame the senators for the bad press they get, generally we dont have very good communications specialists/spokesmen.

This is for constituency projects and many of them are truly doing great jobs with the constituency projects fund.

Stop giving fault narrative...

Only few of them are actually doing something in their constituency and even areas outside their constituency too.
For example, that Senator Yayi(Solomon) representing Yelewa West or so, that Ilaro side in Ogun State. I was shocked the last time I went to that area. The man has completely changed the place. I began to wonder if it is the same senate that one man is representing my constituency.

The head is rotten, that's why the body stinks. If the FG isn't corrupt, these ones will be to afraid to steal due to the consequences they know they'll face

Now wondering what the Lekki LP representative has done with this huge sum to improve on the APC legacy of having constituency projects in the various communities.

I was impressed by one of his projects which involved training quite a number of people on shoe making and setting them up.

I was totally surprised with what I saw. It will seem the man wants to tar even footpaths in Ilaro. School built and some renovated. Empowerment for artisans. And he doesn't shy away from boldly indicating constituency allowance project on all the works. If all our politicians are doing this, our country will not be so backward. Imagine a Senator and a Rep member in undertaking such projects in a constituency. Infact, if the man eventually becomes a Governor, Ogun will be lucky finally

When a senator can come on T.V and tell you that because the road of the place he represents is bad,

HE NEEDS TO BUY AN SUV FOR 160 MILLION.

Let's break down this thinking of the typical black man politician.


----------------
So, let's say 100 of us live in an area, we then select 1 person out of the hundred to address problems for all 100 of us.

Instead, the 1 person we sent to represent us in solving problems tells us that because there is a problem such as bad road, that he alone must have one of the most expensive S.U.V's produced this year, because we can't expect him to suffer the same problem that we suffer.

Funny enough, you may see 30 or more of those 99 people remaining with no solutions to the problems, cheering. Researchers, philosophers... are still trying to figure out why these people cheer to their own detriment.




The absurdity of it all! Well done lad!
