Edo Ex-Commissioner Backs Okpebholo’s Suspension of LG Bosses

[@AfricanLawyers]

God you Barrister Emwanta for explaining both provisions of the Constitution and the Edo State Local Government Law on the issue. Andrew is always on point.

[@raphaelobinna476]

Attorney General of the federation just released a statement condemning the suspension.

[@osas3857]

You can't suspend LG chairmen, just like the President can't suspend you as a governor. No amount of spokesmen can change that

[@AfricanLawyers]

The Edo State Law was posted by the Channels tv presented to educate people like you.

We must commend Emwanta for shedding light on this critical issue. The real question is: why are local government chairmen so resistant to transparency? We often lament that the country is not working, but how can it when those at the grassroots level-closest to the people-fail to meet expectations? For meaningful development to take place, we must implement robust checks and balances to hold them accountable.

[@jomorod4275]

How is that the job of the governor. The chairman do not have immunity they can be investigated and prosecuted by the efcc or police

[@ia6145]

@@jomorod4275This what happens when the blind is leading the people. Too many dull people around it is confusing me😂

[@zionevbuomwan7958]

Always on point....nice submission!!!

[@osayukiekata4537]

Nice submission, properly articulated.

[@petersunny2808]

Andrew Emwanta another stomach infrastructure politician, hmmmm, this naija na wao

[@mosesedokpolor]

This guy was sacked by Obaseki 😅

[@AfricanLawyers]

But he also helped in sacking Obaseki and PDP away from Government House. Emwanta was the one who dumped Obaseki and PDP.

[@theresaAbraham-c8b]

Brilliant Point 👏

[@Gusto3525]

I don't understand these baseless arguments. The Local Government Chairmen should submit their statement of accounts. Is it their personal accounts or public accounts?

[@azzariomaperdijbssa]

Indeed they have nothing to show over a year now... The BIG question is what exactly are they doing with the funds?

[@WaitingtoRoartv]

Emwanta, stop fooling yourself. It is a shame that you are defending your illiterate boss.

[@bosseghosa4667]

What a great submission and a welcome development! Because the local government chairmen in Edo are nothing but a joke with nothing to show since assuming office 🏬

[@WaitingtoRoartv]

You have all failed in your mission.

[@maranathaenoma6722]

This is really so Wrong by Channel for inviting one Party.... Call other lawyers to come explain...

[@ZezIke-j9z]

Exactly 💯

[@AfricanLawyers]

PDP sent one of their members two days ago. Barr Ehilebo

[@chukwuekea.elendu945]

I'm ashamed of this lawyer. I thought he was knowledgeable. Its a pity.

[@paulemwanta445]

Well done, Barr for helping us understand the facts in clear terms. It's always a delight to hear you speak on constitutional and political matters.

[@ia6145]

You are as dull as Emwanta that is a charge and bail lawyer😂

[@AiheOsas]

Rubbish lawyer, okpebholo will soon stack you , only yourself you know. Anywhere food is really na you dey go. He analize nonsense

[@eboigbevincent3409]

Very useless Ẹmwanta

[@petradavid426]

Emwanta is an APC Stewart. Why can't Channels interview a neutral Lawyer

[@AfricanLawyers]

A PDP lawyer Tony Ehilebo was on Channels two days ago

[@Ben__joe11]

Exactly, lawyers who are not members of political parties should have been invited to look at the matter objectively.

[@Aroewanta4102]

Why is APC still campaigning?

[@mikhel7183]

it's so easy to be blowing lies on national TV by this charlatans!

[@kenechukwuokafor4943]

You agree with governor or you dont agree no problem. No allowance for you guys soon

[@zigncoperations9396]

This guy dey talk rubbish, he said the governor of NY can suspend a Mayor, it’s not by wearing suit oo. Do you know what you are saying?

[@oribhabormathiasedose9160]

This Mr. Enwanta is trying to confuse us. The truth is, if the LGA chairmen were APC, he wouldn't have suspended them. The governor is just being power drunk. He should better be wise not to allow anyone control him and work for Edo State bcos Edo State is really lagging behind in comparison with other states of same age. This action of his is really childish and not expected from him at all

[@adewaletaiwo7941]

But the state assembly members are all PDP

[@AfricanLawyers]

Mr man there is nothing childish there. There is an inquiry and the Chairmen should go and explain what happened to the funds that disappeared.

[@Kevin-tv8ew]

This how the media has always divided all us.. now you have kin into it

[@WaitingtoRoartv]

Emwanta has a confused boss anyway

[@mosesusunobun]

Nigeria democracy is in a dire need of help

[@ogbeogbe1657]

Adaze is a lier. He has turned himself to another Lier Mohamed I live in the US. Please give me an example of where a mayor of a city was suspended by a governor Is the 1999 Nigerian constitution the same as the US Constitution? This young man does not think of his future

[@osiwina3587]

Are Edo Lga Chairmen suspended by Gov Okpebholo or Edha?

[@okeychinwuba2586]

Political jobber too much for this country
