News -- Viewpoint: Who is marginalising the Binis?

In a situation when the Bini political elite seem to be complacent and an Adams Oshiomhole from a minority tribe in the North Senatorial district now determines who becomes their councillor, their chairman, members of the House of Assembly, House of Representatives, Senate and the Deputy governor among the Binis, a renewal of faith in some basic moral virtues is necessary.
"Edo or Odion" is good if it does not end up with the exchange of carrots for a pot of porridge or breaking of kola-nuts; if it does not end up with Oshiomhole deciding who and who should represent the Bini in every elected position; if it goes beyond the inclination to receive cash and car gifts by some traditional rulers of Bini scion, to sell the opportunities of the people at the corridors of power.

THEWILL - Expanding the National Conversation - Senate Starts Const. Amendment; Moves To Create State Appeal Court

This is an interesting bill. It has been an issue of concern to a lot of progressive minded citizens as the set up wasn't right in the first place, giving too much power to the state government and opportunity to fraud. The tertiary government is supposed to be autonomous to enhance development to the grass root, if they are given the responsibility to manage the affairs of the local government without the interference of the state and federal government. It will be highly commendable if the senate is able to make this amendment possible.
