Is not easy to loose 33.local government money and that's why Seyi Makinde is really mad at this supreme Court judgement, and there's nothing you can do about it now,

[@deleoyeleke4473]

This guy is truly pained. I can't just make any sense out of what he's saying. It's not easy to lose access to free money.

[@kwameanti712]

Makinde is spewing rubbish, he is so full of himself, he is daring the supreme court and the Federal govt. In the days of Obasanjo he would have smelled pepper

[@muslimaminu1]

Governor: there's confusion in the land! Oh, I mean pocket.

[@mobolajimopsonsanni2844]

For the very first time, I am disappointed with Seyi Makinde. Seyi of all people should know what the constitution says about this autonomy. Well, I believe he's only selling his selfishness here. Leave LGAs fund alone and stick to your own state allocation.

[@kadriakande5944]

Engineer wey no Sabi the Nigeria constitution,nah SUWEGBE.Local government money sweet him to spend. ROGUE GOVERNOR.

[@ibrahimakande7587]

GSM, you aren't facing reality! You avn't been able to successfully manage the 11 LGs within Ibadan, how av managed LGs in far away Shaki, Okeho, Ogbomoso, etc! U are fighting a cause you can't win! SC delivered a ruling, and you're foot dragging? Are u d only Gov affected? What's Ur special interest? Don't validate our suspicion please!!

[@olufemiademulegun4800]

What is this guy saying? You aren't a judge to interpret the law of the land, for goodness sake. Let the local governments breathe. Nonsense 🙈

[@yomimondayaiyesimi2774]

Yes, constitutionally he cannot tell you what to do because he does not have that power but you ALL are bounded by the law. The SC has given an order that MUST be obeyed by ALL of you!

[@matthewoluwadare7624]

After your administration you will be guest of EFCC .I know that you will still want to use Part of the Money systematically and those Chairmen's will not take it easy with you .

[@oluyemiomole2026]

This governor is so pained by the Supreme Court's judgement granting financial autonomy to the local government councils ! This is a low for him!

[@israeladeoye9655]

Your Excellency, Bank-Olodo to Orita-odan in Egbeda LGA is in a state of comatose. Please help us look into this and call the LGA rep to order. We just want to see a good road.

[@charlesadetunde5288]

Governors control the local govt to manage power, with the new law implemented for LG, the state govt can control the LG to manipulate , hence some state government would always give reasons . In this scenario, any LG who void the process of bringing development to their LGA they would be responsible to answer for it. With this FG development, we know who to direct our challenges to….

[@LigattLigatt]

Allow them to manage their funds. Easy money being taken away from them

[@cugwuh]

Can’t speak to his sincerity but what he’s saying is correct.

[@bolaboltono.7323]

Your excellency, do you want to be controlling the local govt money?

[@donren-ew3wh]

Look at it this way, we all saying that the federal government in Nigeria is too powerful and wanted a situation where more power will be given to the state, but now, the federal government is still taking more power by paying the state local government directly and by so doing, federal government will control all the state local government. let say Buhari still in power, despite his numerous power before, he will still be controlling all local government in Enugu, imo, Eboyi,Delta,Lagos, Edo etc. You guys don't know what problem you are bringing to yourselves.

[@martinugochukwuene4850]

By this judgement, we expect the State resource control autonomy to follow.

[@abarajeff8939]

Sorry to say; Sounding unintelligent

[@martinolusanya6370]

Always

[@veronicakun8263]

We need good governors. To give stable electricity supply, jobs for the jobless, good local and major roads, standard hospitals, security of life and properites, good transportation system not agbero type, avoidable government houses, clean water etc. Do the needful to your state.

[@akinolaayodele8409]

Seyi Makinde is a fantastic governor who has worked improved educational sector of oyo state and other sectors but honestly,I can't understand this blabbing of his,this press briefing is disappointing

[@IssasulymanIshola]

Let the local government breath and free local council

[@user-wb3ur6gp3g]

Makinde what are u saying ? don't hide ur feeling do happy with the judgement or not ? ur statement is equivocal

[@jimahkayode2396]

What he is saying is that the Supreme Court is contradicting its self.

[@gabrielkutus2425]

This is an idiotic briefing! What is the meeting for? Are the judgements against your person? Get out!

Mr seyi is just trying to shy away from the reality of loosing grip on power to ride on local government administration

[@jaybstudio7437]

As a state, why cant you generate revenue to pay pension since your office assumption in 2019, you neglected LG, no development at grassroot, no industry nothing. And you are blabing, oga go and fight the supreme court on their judgement. Let LG be.

[@christopheradeke307]

One of the G5 ! Good morning sir

[@gabrieladebayo3815]

MAKINDE YOU WILL RUN WHEN THE POOR PEOPLE DESEND ON YOU. EYIN OLE GOVERNOR.

[@pastorjoshuapopoola9854]

If you hear clearly without bias. He's saying the local council men should prioritize the people. That no local council should think that they have money to waste when there is a statewide need for devolpment. Local Government or no local government, there would be an agreement for sustainable developments in OYO state. That's what he's saying.

[@louisadibe3189]

Well mr Makinde should know that this judgement is for the entire Nigeria not just oyo state,mr Makinde just missed the opportunity of been likeable by his people,the court has made pronouncements and if you claim you have been running local govt elections in your state then in this interview you should have applauded the decision of the Supreme Court

[@Gusto3525]

Is the state superior to local government? If i may ask, how did this outstanding gratuities amounted to the figures the gov mentioned? Please give the local government their monies so they can pay salaries and embark on projects in their localities then, do your part as a state government sir...

[@johnnwa-mazi7538]

Why's this man always talking like he's sleepy

[@oluwafemiadewole3580]

Abeg leave my Governor alone ooo 😂❤, We love him like that 😊

[@adigunzaccheaus4905]

Let the local govt breath by obey SC. after 5yrs of control which some local govt developed nothing under your watch. enough of Emperor. Go to him after all u back him to power, to create hunger in the country.

[@billcosoritse6798]

God bless and guide the president of Nigeria

[@paulakinsande]

So you mean, the FG is not ready to implement this immediately ? Na wa ooo.. The Algon should take FG to court immediately

[@MaxwellDonatus]

Do you have court

[@aremukehinde5400]

What will happen to those LCDs created by governors n the one even created by this present president when he was the governor of Lagos?Will the governors share the allocations to them also?

[@dau1133]

You guys must obey the local government judgment

[@Godsgrace-jo7ev]

Ogbeni,u have nothing to say in this constitutional matter. The money you have been getting from d local government is too sweet for you to the extent that you don't want to leave it again. What is all your cry for? There was a viral video that exposed you to what u are getting from your local government. Why are you pained with someone money? It shows u have wholly capitalized on d money for living

[@justiceekwueme4235]

What exactly are you complaining about? You guys have no shame.

[@martinsaladejuyigbe7274]

Did Seyi go to school?, LCDA is unknown to law, you don't know what to do

[@CboyCboy-ov9ef]

That money is painful ehhh😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Body they pain you all So the state is more superior than the Local government? See your head

[@9jasongs]

What's the jargoons he's saying?

[@belloolukoya2709]

You cannot do what is right,but what the law says. People's governor's please thread cautiously. No justification for disobeying the law.

[@okubanjoifeoluwaadeyinka6885]

U don't understand governance seyi

[@okubanjoifeoluwaadeyinka6885]

How can you say FEC IS NOT SUPERIOR TO SEC..Mr we are not concerned about u but local government autonomy after you

[@slyidehen1006]

FG is the problem of governance in Nigeria making law without enforcement and breaking it instantly 😂😂😂😂😂

[@abdulabiola879]

Why is this Governor making a big deal.Very funny people.But Chairman of Gov forum just said alot of burden has been lifted off their necks.Who is fooling who.....😅😅😅

[@yomimondayaiyesimi2774]

The chairman said so just for face saving,they are ALL not happy about the SC order.

[@francisafolalu4067]

Why are sulking ... less money to steal?

[@nas3516]

I look at this guys and i laugh weather u like it or not LGA are free keep cry.

[@OlawaleTobi-tq5hh]

Makinde,what is paining you,go and do d needful,its not your money,stop carjol your caretaker.

[@opubodappabrown8427]

Oyo state lga is elected their is no caretaker in Oyo state

[@adeogunanthony6580]

From what I understood from this new briefing, the FG has not really settled for business on how to improve the welfare of the citizens. The infrastructural development of the country, oil sector, power, employment, labor and productivity, security, agriculture, economy, etc. are in total mess. Governor Seyi Makinde is of the opinion that 'sharing' shouldn't be the priority of the FG. Rather than tackling the projects that will bring hope for the people. The Oyo State Governor should be applauded for comment on the judgment of the Supreme Court. His colleagues were all clapping hands on the issue instead of telling the government the facts

[@DBM_DBM]

What more facts do you want ? We are a Federation and Supreme court has reaffirmed it. So, the governors should do the needful.

[@femiolutoki6061]

At least all You've said up in your writeup is good but we start from somewhere why is seyi angry sheeey he want to be controlling all the 33 local government in oyo state shame

[@jaybstudio7437]

So because FG want to be more productive, should we ask Tinubu to stop giving states their allocation. Baba, allocation means let my people live and eat first so they can think of production. Without food in your belly, can you think straight, without good local roads, how would people go to work.

[@favourchukwu7838]

Ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee. In Europe, nobody will beg u to rebuild, renovate, or construct, because everything according to the law of the land. Look at him, he doesn't want to obey the court order. Just as FG don't want to obey too for MNK

[@user-cz8dg4cm6i]

Very good My governor

[@Godsgrace-jo7ev]

Nonesense

[@KennyVic-jo3sc]

God bless PO

[@stanleyjosiah6779]

Makinde wants to use the power he gets ridging Tinubu into office as Wike is doing also

[@mrgrigs27]

Rambling.

[@edmundudo8871]

If you swore then why do governors steals?

[@ojoolusojiolawunmipraise-pe1tz]

What exactly is paining you ,he is just busy blabbing....how many cake have you baked in oyo..This man is foolish

[@solomonkayode2385]

Supreme Court decision is final seyi go and sit down

[@opubodappabrown8427]

Did you watch the clip to the end? He said federal government is giving them 2 weeks that why can’t they implement it immediately

[@pastorjoshuapopoola9854]

If you hear clearly without bias. He's saying the local council men should prioritize the people. That no local council should think that they have money to waste when there is a statewide need for devolpment. Local Government or no local government, there would be an agreement for sustainable developments in OYO state. That's what he's saying.

[@abtezzabtex5513]

You are saying rubbish. You can still partner with local government heads to collaborate in moving the state forward. You dont have to hold the money and keep it.

[@anjorinolaoluwapeter1059]

Nigerians can easily be sway by mere politicking pronouncement from the Tinubu Supreme Court on Local Government Financial Autonomy. If Tinubu led Federal Government is serious about development, he should muster the political will to implement state resources control autonomy as soon as possible.

[@olamilekanabdulsemiu5713]

This guy feel important to much

[@oddyodion3014]

Nonsense

[@SundayElijah-vs7wz]

Mr governor you have oyaca and efcc and icpc to monitor them this not excuses please sir want commit after supreme court

Yeye de smell

[@kadriakande5944]

TALKING JAZZ.

[@Brunoblack1]

Watin this one dey talk

[@ictplaza3650]

The same way he is saying there is cordinate jurisdiction within Federal amd State he didn't say same for State and LGA in some climes LGAs are autonomous to the point of having there own Police

[@igwechibueze6714]

Hiss

[@martinugochukwuene4850]

Nuisance value!

[@esports-gaming7692]

This guy don tamper with state funds .. why panic??

[@Fido1010]

He be like say Seyi head no correct. Na local government chairmen place we go first visit during protest. Because you guys are going to be paid direct now...

[@oladapofamodun7771]

makinde statements doesnt make any sense . the Supreme Court says the money you are collecting from the federal government part of it is not your own . you are talking about debts and other things ' is there anything that you are not telling us ?

[@jideajetunmobi9839]

He didn't really like the idea of LG autonomy that's a fact.

[@jaybstudio7437]

But he liked being a Governor guided by the same constitution abi? Dey play

[@patrick-vt8uw]

Okay

[@ugbanangere8541]

He's correct. The judgement is inconsistent with the constitution which is the highest law in the land. section1,1 says the constitution is supreme & its provisions shall have binding force on all authorities(supreme court inclusive)& persons throughout the federal republic of Nigeria. Section 162,6 says LGAs & state allocations shall(must) be paid into special account called state joint local govt account. Again,LGAs aren't part of the federating units section 2,2 and therefore ought not to be entitled to collect money directly from the federation account. The judgement is a flagrant breach of relevant sections of the Constitution except the constitution is nolonger the grundnorm in the land.

[@OlawaleBright]

❤

[@patrickokpe6315]

It seem whichever tier of government takes a matter to the supreme court first, wins. Naira swap and cashless policy on my mind.😊

[@martinolusanya6370]

Oyo State conducted Local Government selection process. Under your watch has any other party even had the opportunity to contest elections into local government offices. You guys are starving the local government of funds, let it go follow the verdict of the supreme Court

[@tayoadeagbo2659]

You are angry, and the thing dey pepper you. You earlier said you dont believe in the Local Government.

[@artcomdesigninternational6969]

Shame

[@anthonytony502]

In a federation, the states have local councils as the federal to the states, local councils are managed everywhere in the world by states government. The LG chairman must be elected with their counsellors but the governor gives allocation to LG as the needs be. This judgment means the federal government too should not be seen giving allocations to states, the money should go to states directly from crude sales

[@sonjadfoy4553]

Just the think that i use to hold this guy in high esteem...i thought you backed the current government to power betraying your own party .....enjoy the confusion at Play

[@sheriffquassim3300]

Just rumbling some jumbles. Why are u crying foul if u know u are doing the right thing. Feeling and talking like a frustrated man is an indication that u are beaten to the ugly game if governance. Dont know why u are lamenting

[@festuskthomas1433]

Oga the bed you make nah you go sleep on mumu pple

[@rubblechange7127]

My dad was a civil servant in a LGA, his director told him that time to initiate a ptoject worth millions of naira on paper without doing any actual project. Anytime the chair, supervisor for works or any of them needs money, they'll formulate a circular for multimillion naira projects but only deliver very poorly constructed roads. Eventually the masses will suffer. Most of the roads we clamour that the governors were not doing are actually roads the LGAs long abandoned or badly constructed because of deeply rooted corruption. Or where do you think the then "god fathers" get bulk of funding from? Its a bad news...

[@jaybstudio7437]

So you think State spending their money is the way out, what's the job of EFCC and Oysiec?

[@patrick-vt8uw]

No o

[@martinolusanya6370]

You know what is good for the people but u are not doing it. U are not doing what is right fully. Is it your money, it is Oyo State money. Can you swear on your life that u conducted fair LG elections.

[@temitopediallo7174]

Shame, Oyo people wake up

[@ajodbaba1]

I agree with Seyi Makinde on this

[@sirrainbow1672]

Governor Makinde is you think you have been doing the right thing you should not have any problem with the Supreme Court judgement. Please stop misadvising your people, the Federal Government law supersedes that of the State Government. The Federal Government will step into the State Government affairs when it is in conflict with the Federal laws. The governor should know better. Also you cannot be telling the citizens that the Federal Government is not superior to the State Government and yet you depend on the resources from the Federal Government to run the state. The Governors forum have come to say they would abide by the Supreme court decision, why not wait till the modality of how the the court ruling will be implemented before tell the people that your state will do things their own way. The Federal Government has more constitutional power than the State and local governments. When the plan is rolled out, the Local Government do not need the inference of the State government and that is what autonomy means. Right now the governor is hatching the chicks before the eggs. You cannot design how the states is going to relate to the Local Government henceforth. It will not be the responsibility of the governors to call for local government elections but the responsibility of the local Government chairman with the supervision of INEC.
