Court Interference in Electoral Process: The Problem Is Not Judicial Intervention, It Is Jurisprudence - Amadi It is not for judges to substitute their reasoning for voters; it is for them to disqualify and invalidate processes that hinder the true expression of voters.

This Government Has An Uncontrolled Public Expenditure System— Amadi At the beginning of this government, the FCT minister went to the president and asked to be exempted from the normal due process procurement policies.

FCT Minister Does Not Exercise the Powers of the Commander-in-Chief; The Soldier Did No Wrong The military is not responsible for enforcing the law — that is the duty of the police. The officer acted in accordance with standard military procedure. He was authorised to be there and protect the location, and the minister cannot override the instruction given to the soldier. — Dr Sam Amadi, Director, Abuja School of Social and Political Thought

Anambra Debt: If There Was No Drawdown of the Loan Approved, Peter Obi Can Say He Didn't Incur Debt — Amadi If there was no drawdown and they were able to pay, for example, then they did not leave a debt in that sense. I think the discussion is about prudence. Peter Obi is simply saying he was prudent enough to run his administration without debt. Sam Amadi, Director, Abuja School of Social and Political Thought

EFCC Cannot Freeze A State Government Account Simply On The Fear Of Dissipation - Amadi The government has a right to spend its funds. Even if there is an allegation of dissipation, officials can still be prosecuted afterward if any wrongdoing is established. I have met the EFCC Chairman and had conversations with him, and I consider him an innovative person who is committed to fighting corruption. For me, this is his first real test, and he must show that he can withstand political pressure. It clearly appeared to be an APC strategy to close in on the Osun State Governor.

Nigeria’s Growing Debt Burden Is Further Argument for Subsidy Removal - Amadi If President Tinubu says the government is now in a better financial position, why are we borrowing more than before? What are these borrowings being used for? Subsidy removal means Nigerians are paying more taxes, while the government collects more and borrows more, yet there is still very little financial room to operate.

Lere Olayinka Missed The Chance To Stand By His Principles As A Public Official - Amadi The reason you appear before the media is to sell your message, to communicate, and to win the hearts and minds of the audience, not just the host. You are speaking to a much larger audience, so missing the opportunity to communicate your message and instead using the platform to throw tantrums only exposes the weakness of the person speaking for the government.

The Focus Of Government Policy Is Not On Lifting The Poor But The Rich — Amadi I judge the subsidy removal of this government as a failure because, ultimately, it has not improved the economy in terms of productivity, and it has not generated welfare gains for the people.

Nigerian Leaders Must Address Religious Rights And Stop Deflecting — Sam Amadi The criteria in the US International Freedom Act are clear. In cases where a state fails to protect the rights of its citizens, the US government can prioritise action. Nigeria has failed to address the issue of religious rights. People should never be victimised for their religious beliefs. Director, Abuja School of Social and Political Thoughts, Sam Amadi

Gov. Adeleke May Not Embody Every Ideal Of A Perfect Governor, But He’s The One Osun People Prefer - Amadi We’re dealing with perhaps the closest thing to a political godfather family in Osun State, backed by Davido’s star power and Gov.

Those Forfeiting Their Assets Are Those Who Have Left Government — Amadi If Malami was still working with this government nothing will happen to him. The senate president has EFCC cases that isn’t progressing, almost everyone in this administration have unprogressive cases. Oftentimes the war against corruption is a political fight back, because if corruption is to be fought truthfully a transparent and accountable systems needs to be setup.

This Government Has Been Proficient In Disregarding Public Morality — Amadi The optics are bad. David Umahi should have gone to the police to make a statement. Up until now the police is yet to issue an official statement. He has rather been on a show granting press conferences, talking about the case and threatening law firms. This is rather reckless and irresponsible. Dr. Sam Amadi Director, Abuja School of Social and Political Thoughts

NDC Conducted The Most Successful Primaries, No Reconciliation Needed Afterward - Amadi The APC is still dealing with the fallout from its primaries, with complaints, disputes, and aggrieved members continuing to emerge. In contrast, the NDC appears to have come out of its primaries with fewer internal conflicts and little need for reconciliation. I would also give credit to the ADC, which benefited from experienced political figures and a well-developed structure built over many years. However, the broader issue is that the problems witnessed during the primaries were not caused by the parties alone. Electoral rules, administrative challenges, and the role of INEC all combined to create what could best be described as a perfect storm. Sam Amadi, Director, Abuja School Of Social And Political Thought
