He suggested that in order to curb crimes and prevent long-term consequences, senators should dispose three of the five vehicles they each own and use the proceeds to engage the youth.The senator spoke at the plenary on Thursday during the debate that followed the presentation of the senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani.
Another respondent, Senator Joshua Lidani , also supported the motion, noting, “Nigeria is becoming a killing field and this will have an effect on investment and tourism.”“We need to mobilise the military to those areas and we should not be shy of asking for help,” Lidani added. He, therefore, warned that, “There are a lot of issues that we need to address because the way these series of killings are going on and that is why we brought it up today.“When we talk about the way forward, we need to be honest with ourselves.
“Even if we want to recruit, we can’t do it from here, we need guidance, they need to tell us what we need to know.” “We need to decide whether we want to find a solution or whether we just want to play to the gallery. In the past, kidnappings used to be done in the cities; now they are kidnapping villagers too, its a big problem.”
Senator Kabir Marafa , warned that the killings are evidence that, “The north is at war. Unless something is done, I am afraid that in the next two to three years, the situation might be out of control. This has become a business because there is technically no business in the north.Attributing the crimes to youth unemployment, Senator Andrew Uchendu said, “Until our youth are engaged, this problem will continue.
don't sell ur cars.....bt allow it to be slashed by 50%
Somebody is just talking. Way to go brother
So after the long session, they agreed on ten things, only two involve action, what a load of crap that represents us. Trash.
can that be
Yahoo man are among them they will never agree with that
Can they do it
Don't worry, just give us stable power supply, let every married man have a shelter, bring back to Nigeria your Panama investment. continue using your 5 vehicles the rest will take care of itself
Only an outgoing senator can make such a statement. On the normal, greed won't allow them think well.
Opinions upon opinions without implementation, nonsense
I hope things will just go as you said it, but I don't think our greedy politicians will ever listen to this, including you.
Now u are talking not when all of u will seat in the house chamber looking for money to deviod
Please ooo, are they just realizing it now
So easy to say
Let them don't deceive us anymore.....fakeideas because he's old member, can the new elected senators agree to that? stupidfellows
Accept to cut down on senators salary and those senseless allowances.
I wish they care that much
They are just talking. Ben Bruce complained about receiving huge salary and allowances but he has not stopped collecting.
Fact
In addition, a situation where Nigerians are providing almost everything for themselves, like electricity, water, transportation, education etc. is making people to think of cutting corners to meet up. Most Nigerians will not take to crime, if the basics are provided.
Whose Vehicles - National Assembly or that of the Senathugs?
I expected him to say something like 'I sold 3 of the 5 vehicles I own and uses the proceeds to engage youths', then we we can start from there. Nigerian politicians are all scammers. Always playing to the gallery. That was how benmurraybruce said his own about Osun state.
All of you will receive Sense!
It because they never work for it and all they can do is to spend. You can't do it but we Nigerians knows that you can only say those shit but u have no morals or gut to do it.
The most useless arms of govt in the whole Africa and world at large. Useless old fools, u all forget that one day u will sleep and never wake up again. This money you stealing on d bases of monthly allowances will be spent by ur kids that can't appreciate
Senate is NOT serious about security issue. 2. Their discussion is COSMETIC, NOT SOLUTION ORIENTED 3. WHY PRETEND AS IF ITS THEIR PROBLEM RATHER THAN 'OUR PROBLEM' 4. How long have these serious crimes bn with us? The Senators, are LIARS AND PRETENDERS.The SP, shld be accountable
Reduce your salary and all allowances shekena!
Action speak louder than words, bloody luters
Guess it's time we let cat out of the bag. Our lawmakers are selfish so they'll rule this beautiful idea out.
Action non fake words
I think it will be better if we do away with Presidential system and imbibe parliamentary system. Presidential is expensive
It's not abt selling cars, bcos ur fat allowances can buy U more, it's abt reducing d N13.500,000 U collect monthly & d const project money
Dino is buying more
Who is going to buy?
Good reasoning,
A prudent idea that's timely. Engaging the youth is a win win situation, all across.
Fine! Who will lead the group good gesture?
Not only cars you suppose to sell but your numerous houses
Senator 'if we sell three of five', when will the change begin with you? Hypocrite!!!!!
I'm sure d mover of d motion is not coming back in June.
Which people go still buy the cars wey una go sell?na still una.abeg the country don collapse already and you guys should be ready because Nigerians are coming for you!!
Good idea mr senator pls help us inform the executive to also join the train.thanks
But greed will not let that be, Please BringBack5Naira in circulation Watch and retweet
RealOlaudah Not only that, return all d money u all have stolen,release all d public properties u all have converted to ur personal properties and sell all d properties u all acquired home & abroad with Nigeria's money. Confiscate Retrieve all our moneys Tinubu stole & other polititians.
I hope he started by selling 3 of his cars? I mean we're in an evidence based time now
The frist sells should start from you and all senators of Nigeria 🇳🇬!
Plus if they stopped allocating too much to themselves, more like.
Una good morning ooh! How Una 9t be?
BHADAMAN_ This senator cannot be a Nigerian senator😳
Which of the senator said this?
Please don't sell the cheap ones ooo
Negligence of our so-called leaders/representatives av casused a lots of damages to the youths engaging in so many social vices and there by putting pressure on our security agencies. 'You are all sitting on a gun-powder that is already exploding' only time will tell.
As if they really have the youths and Nigerians in their minds if not for their self and families! abeg make we hear words joor
Paraphrased: if we sell or do away with nassnigeria and use proceeds (monthly allowee of 13m per officer, constituency allowees in billions. Etc...) to engage youths, crime will reduce. Senators
dino_melaye listen to this
Oh my.....
Hopefully it will be done
Sell it to who?
Can you imagine 3 or 5 vehicles. Ema gboro. When they know they'll still get 2 times of it.
We want action and results.
God is working
Bet me, the guy knows what is waiting for him at his constituency, tic toc, tic toc, tic toc.
bunch of Devilish people's masquerading as our senators
Now someone is thinking
Greedy the ones among them will not make it happen......
bukolasaraki benmurraybruce
The key word *if
Telling us this at this time... I am not understanding it.🤔
If you reduced your monthly allowances from 13 million to 2million crime rate will stop.
Thank God u no d bitter truth but evil conscience wont let u
You will be saving the earth reducing carbon footprint too
Fair comment
Yeye people!!! Nah who tell una say nah u own d motor? No be taxpayers mini dem take buy am? No be dem fault now, nah wayowayo constitution dey give dem boldface to pad all d padables and to milk all d milkables from dem 'constituency projects'. Payback dey dey come,soon😷😷😷😷
Really? Like seriously? I'm sure Dino never hear this sha.. because Na Dino go first block that motion.. sell wetin🤦🤦🤷🤷
Baba make the move first
Good one,dino should comply
That's interesting!! Charity begins at home.
Reality check!
As funny and as unserious as this sounds, there is a very strong point here.
Talk is cheap
Na to show say 🍕 never finish... when e finish watch out
Dino has enough to empower the youths in his state...
I'm sure this guy came close to death.
They would not like that part.
We don't need you to sell ur vehicle just to engage the youths, we need you guys to cut down on the wastage of the NASS.
Correct.
But we all know you won’t, rather you will buy another three.
Senators are making sense for the first time.
Whaooooo who formulate this or is it said by senator truly?
The earlier u engage the youths the better country for u and I to live in
Tell Dino please
Pls ask oga dino_melaye
I really want to know the senator that said so.
Cool. Good to know he still has common sense.
