Aregbesola "OPON IMO" A Scam? by gratiaeo(m): 3:24pm On Oct 01, 2013
One of the most celebrated achievements of the Rauf Aregbesola’s
government in Osun State in Opon Imo {Tablet PC} with inbuilt text books
and past exam questions for WEAC and JAMB. The launch of the tablets and
its distribution to students in the state was hailed and an innovative move by the state government by many.

The N8.2 billion tablets christened Opon Imo may however take on a new
name, some people have already christened Opon Scam because of new revelations coming out the procurement, configuration and distribution
of the tablets.

Kabiru Aregbesola, the 27 year old son of Ogbeni Aregbesola has been revealed as the brain behind the procurement of the tablets. Though the
governor has laboured hard to deny the involvement of his son in the procurement, insisting that he only helped with software without
invoicing the state, sources say the governor may be hiding the truth from Osun people and Nigerians.

“ The governor actually believes Osun people are not intelligent and for
that he is trying to cover our faces with wool. He has forgotten that at
Ilesha, during the launch of the tablets, Tinubu was looking for
Kabiru; they wanted to hide the boy as they did not want people to know
that it was Kabiru that handled the project. It was Tinubu that exposed everything. He called Kabiru and said you are a billionaire now, announcing publicly that Kabiru is the brain behind the tablets”, the
source said.

Aside the above, there are concerns over the distribution of the tablets, as sources say that contrary to widespread propaganda by the
state government, only very few of the tablets are in circulation.

“In my own local government area, I don’t think we have fifty students that have the tablets and they are saying it on air that they have distributed it to all SS3 and SS2 students in my local. You can go round
all the local government areas in Ife division comprising of Ife North, Ife East, Ife Central, Ife South and the Area Council Modakeke and you will not get more than 200 of the tablets.

Let Aregbesola come out with his statistics and let him also take us to where the tablets are. This Opon Imo project is a scam in its entirety.
It is another avenue for Aregbesola and his family to continue to steal the state blind. How can you procure tablets for N8.2 billion and we won’t feel it? It does not make sense”, a source said.
