Well, I think I spoke that already in Maliraki was nine Nigerians hourly says minister Mr. One do good morning once again All right, so let's start with the PDP crisis You know the news papers this morning all of them reporting about the same thing saying six NWC members ask Which is a condos to resign? He is still adamant and the meetings of course continue today What do you think is a plane out here? Well, it's 2023 that is paying out the soul of the party is now a state and Everybody is trying to start a case for 2023 Oh, the hoax Others within the party wants to make sure that the position themselves My only worry is that since 2015 People have been able to deliver But this mandate has an opposition party We saw how they preceded it prior to the 2015 election but PDP seems to simply go to bed and We are not doing what they are supposed to do. I'm being the alternative voice And especially for Nigerians when it comes to some of the things activities of a PC Second to that is the fact that I wonder why PDP is going through this now when current national executive of their party Have just about three months to spend Before the end of their tenure. I think the attend your ends in December So why is it that they're not waiting for December just three months to last for them to be able to conduct under election to elect new executive members, but as I said, it's just good beyond us What most ordinary Nigerians see our politicians don't see so they see they know it all and What we just believe that is the ordinary to the politician is not one day or one hour Maybe just to look for a politician and anything can change at the end and more worrisome is the fact also ah the person spearheading the exit of the national chairman of PDP is also the same person that Propertically brought him and he is from the same stage with a second to that is the governor of River states. I don't know what the issues between seconders and the week is but the Soviets that we K wants to see the back of Seconders, but the governors of that the statement of the meeting Say that is a meeting again today. So let's see what they know come out with WC already Members have already taken a stand six against three and six not three three absent themselves from the voting so that six voted for Seconders to live is equal to get the only kind of parts on the back Let's wait and see what happens in the next Okay, well some other person who is going through his own bit of crisis is from a governor of the most it was just a culture There is of course talk of him for feeding almost up to 500 properties to the most state government Allegedly owned by him. How do you see that also? Well, it has been a means grill for Richard's culture in the next in the past Yes, they high-cutting We say that forfeits Those properties some of the most of them are calling to the court where government properties which he legally acquired And if it's if that's the case then definitely has no choice than to fulfill it But it's just a high-cut Jointment in my decision to appeal at the court of appeal and it might even take us to all to the Supreme Court When the same 24 hours which has also have the strength of a chief time to be giving him by a Monarch in Ogo State. I'm sure he must have read that too. Yes in addition to that He has also said that he's going to do it at Islamic University in Dara The home state of president for the good job present so that I say is a mystery for him in the past 48 hours But it's I'm from Imo State and If for a for whatever and it is one that most of those properties that Richard's kept to be his Properties of the state government or that we have been a lot longer to the state government our Land belonging to us as individuals then we have Get that back for him. But as I said, I is not yet over I see him appealing at the court of appeal and that we might take up to We'll take some other years All right, and then let's also speak while staying in the southeast now where Yesterday was declared ghost Monday around the southeast some states compliant, you know, to a large percent Some others but of course The sad part is the report of death and it says about four officers and you know other places were torch Officers reportedly died I was saying earlier that the impu be if they keep up with the way they are going I got to completely lose the good will that they had With you know people in the southeast whatever good will they had? I tend to agree with you most of the states People from the search is comply with the direct Contest Compliance is not at the because the because of obedience But because of the fear by the people that Security agencies might not be able to protect them. So people Decide to stay at home. It's not because they are totally in support of But because of the fear of violence and our security agencies inability to protect them and even the state government I Wonder miss I wonder apologies. We're gonna go back. We're gonna go on a short break for like a few seconds And we'll get back to you so you can finish up your thoughts on that story Welcome once again to the breakfast and back to off the press with Chris one do Welcome back sir. You're sharing your thoughts on the IPO be Issues in the southeast some of the papers report about 14 people lost their lives yesterday some say four some say six Kindly go ahead sir Yes, I was saying compliance is not to tell you because of obedience Because of Well because our security agencies and government of the various states in the south is People see them are not being able to protect them if they start going about their businesses and rest of them So we're also some pockets of videos where I pop members when going from one point Destroying people's Properties I saw the woman that was cooking and the body will have food We saw the one that But the one that was more worrisome is they cause they are letting burning of Bosses commercial bosses apparently that we're conveying people and one of those buses I saw A passenger or somebody that was bought with us and that video cannot be verified But it got it had it happened If that is the situation I can tell you It's all sense of humidity that the way I put it up on the screen about his activities. He may start losing The support of the people whether I like it or not to stand using the support of people and at a point You push people to a point they will react and that will be very dangerous and the inevitable the activities of Ipon if people start reacting people can also take up arms and start fighting Ipon and that is That would be more dangerous than we are what we're currently So I think they should be very careful. I don't and I still nobody have been able to tell me how the clarinet every Monday Public holiday we swear the Activities of the court he releasing in Namdeekam That's counterproductive the court will not listen to that cut will take a decision based on the parts of ground and So if I will continue going down route. Yes, we can Someday plus Saturday to air and I bet shutting down by shutting down the activities in the village southeast He's also going to hold the people these nurses we go to Collapsed there's some people that makes their that makes their ends meet on the daily basis They don't go out on a daily basis. They cannot eat so you are adding to the suffering of your people. You have to you're trying to to protect Yes, so to me is counterproductive. I think they should look for that strategy is on Passing on their message and they are currently to you know And I'm not also not sure how long before the people of the southeast, you know, tell them No, you know because you know one Monday after the next Monday and by the third Monday I'm sure that a lot of people would not even bother You know staying at home I'm at some point, you know, this whole goodwill is going to completely wear off and everyone's going to be tired Like you said, you know, you don't want it to get to a point where people start to fight back The IPO being and it feels you know, and one of the things I said earlier It feels like you know, they have become the same tyrants that they are complaining about A hungry man is an angry man and he gets to a point when a man knows that he has nothing to lose And especially when it comes to issue of not be able to feed himself like my family you will fight back and We resort to a situation where people might just decide to take the laws into their hands I start moving from one house to the other and like we saw during the Bacchus cities in the southeast and they'll start attacking Passive members of IPO. So that is why I say they should be very strategic in their In the approach and not take people for granted. If you think you have the upper hand An average woman is a very resolute person and Well, yes, when you want to fight for what he believes in, he fights for a bet If for any reason he sees no reason to do that again and he sees you champion on his Right on his or miss of lively. He will fight back. That is an average woman for you. He will fight you back. So I push be careful. But my take on this is that he's also shows lack of governors and Connect there's a disconnect between the governor Governance and the state government. Even the state governors cannot be able to talk to their people and they obey them But right up and obey I call then that shows you that that's serious problem within the start is I mean as it is connected between the people and the governors of the studies and you just look at them Okay, now let's also quickly speak about the NIRD strike it says on the Nigerian Tribune reps fail to stop resident dr. Strike meeting continues today Quickly also share your thoughts on that one But the minister of health who is a doctor say we have not means of a mist of the Doctor you can say that he will kiss right On whatever And there are people you don't threaten medical doctors are one of them lawyers are not that set of people and some categories of work. These are professionals We didn't send them to school. They spend their money going to school. They are professional. You need them. What are they need you? So it is there should be a more coordinated ways of approaching the issue rather than the Servants and Or that kind of actually that's been said by some of our government officials How can you threaten a doctor? What do you if you try to if you say you are going to start a dog Are you going to produce doctors within a week to 12 hours? Do you know how long to produce a dog? What it takes to produce a dog? Even if you send a doctor a doctor can start his home. He's gone small clinics I'll be making money. Well, I even pay him in government So I think the best is for us to be good to make sure that This is resolved. A lot of people are dying. What I like it or not people have been taken to hospital I know somebody that was taken to a hospital. Yes, that was rejected in one of the government hospitals The papers also speak about the cholera outbreak that has killed more than 800 people in seven months Exactly With the data So this is a peculiar This is the situation we find ourselves where the government should try to make sure that they're able to meet the dog source Halfway. I don't think they are human by their profession. There are some 80s of thinking and that is to save human lives I believe that if the government can be able to live up to the expectation and be able to meet some of their demand I'm sure they will call it As I said earlier, there is this put that doctors take When they are graduating and part of it that irrespective whatever human life comes first But I believe that government should also do the need if you have an agreement with With the doctors that you should be able to make sure you will talk to that agreement But here Agreements are just signed on papers without any level of adherence and implementation and that has always been what Has gotten us to don't worry. Don't also forget that as we as we's also garing up what he has and Is not good enough Okay Finally if you can do this in a minute, there's a story on the Nigerian Tribune It says uh court stops federal government from collecting value added tax says it is a state tax To me that has to be fantastic. It's all the same this one and but Is it is a river state? That But constitutionally, I think It may be right But the ever-increased are going to Appear that because of But look at it from this point We have always said it and states that don't contribute to the issue not the part of that meeting Let's take for example, we do not Do not most part of the not don't believe in sales of alcohol They destroy alcohols. They destroy bottles. They do bars and rest of the But when you are sharing bad from alcohol Recycling most of them gets Practical a lot of them gets bad from that If you understand what i'm trying to say, so You cannot say on one hand what you don't you don't need something and on the other hand you also collect it So that is more reason why um, it's both the bad and that's Be as if I can't remember what it is now, but I think um, it's good that that's particular law has been tested Let's see how ever as we react but if that loss is then Then it will bring a lot of relief to most of the states Who's the biggest reverse and some of the stages highest number of bads across Nigeria But once they get in return very recommend practically takes everything and does give them something out of it Which is not good enough All right, chris wander.
