No response to Gbawe's theoretic rant above. ^^

I don't want or need a response from you. I would have carried on ignoring you , for the sake of allowing this nice thread flow and remain a nirvana of ideas devoid of pettiness. Yet you and others are going too far with your 'more Yoruba than others' antics. Especially you who passionately campaigned for GEJ , the nemesis of the SW, to remain in power when he singularly harmed the Yoruba nation the most of all presidents we have had since 1999. Some Yoruba 'patriot' you are. If you stay in your lane then I have no issues with you but you and others should cut out the pretence and holier than thou pontifications - especially done at the expense of other Yorubas who backed the right horse. What "otito oro" is a GEJ loyalist and apologist interested in?

The "otito oro" that your messiah directly marginalised and personally frustrated the SW while supervising the theft of up to $60 billions that harmed the SW and Nigeria at large? Did the highly dishonest GEJ you support 200% not come to the SW to apologise to our Obas for "marginalizing" the region for 5 long years while deceitfully begging to be given the chance to make amends? yet look at where the Yorubas are in 5 months under Buhari!! Is this how you show love for your own? I.e back what harms them to then be pretending next minute to want the best for them?

Was it not GEJ who rammed the N18,000 minimum wage down the throath of Nigerian governors whether they could afford to pay it or not? GEJ treacherously announced he had approved the increase and left the governors to face the wrath of their people at home. Today the Buhari you and others hounded has empowered the SW immensely to the extent we now have the unique chance to improve our region through the performance of some of our sons and daughters in key positions in the GMB governent. These are position they would never be in had GEJ won a second term yet you have the nerve to claim the man who, more than anyone else, made all this happen, i.e Tinubu, is the problem of the SW when you supported GEJ who is the biggest problem, by far, of the SW and even Nigeria !!! Some of you guys are simply something else.

In my opinion, the way out of this mess is to mine our solid minerals. Each state is blessed with solid minerals which can sustain her. FG need to the the right so investors could come and invest into solid mineral mining. LG, State and FG will get their percentages while the investors will also get theirs. Everyone smiles, we clear our debt and move on.

I have been working on something which I intend to set up in Osun next year, I've discussed the gold mining with my boss and he's ready to support me but with this present banga banga system we can't come in.

We are witing for FG to do the needful. This poverty must end.
I agree with you, but then we must ensure these minerals actually create wealth for our citizens, i don't want investors to just come here and take raw materials away for export, i want us to create industries around these minerals, we should export finish products only.
I don't want some Chinese to turn my people to slaves

Apart from being a very CORRUPT person, Fashola is also a massive failure on education that is the platform for any meaningful & durable development of a people.
Otherwise how could he be boasting of 2,000 government schools out of 14,000 schools apart from many kids not being in school?
This is the same guy who took $90 million World Bank loan for education and looted it practically.

My position remains, our leaders should put their houses in order, report the actual cost of project without any undue inflation, let all the elected officials be accountable to their constituency and not to anyone.

The mounting debt profile, even during their time, do we have projects cost that could be closely related to the published figures?

FG, States, LGs Share N568.4 Billion for Oct

Also, $1billion was proposed for distribution to complement shortfall in expected revenue." The $1billion is a compromise by the FG over its words in September not to augment shortfalls anymore.

Responding to the presentation, the chairman of the States Commissioners of Finance and Ebonyi State Commissioner of Finance, Mr Timothy Odaah, lamented that the statutory allocation was getting smaller and smaller. "It appears this is the worst in terms of returns. This is the least in allocations as far as this year is concerned. We are mourning the dearth of funds and this is a wakeup call for states and local governments to buoy up their internally generated revenue."

While appreciating the "magnanimity" of President Goodluck Jonathan to approve the $1billion from the excess crude account and to be shared among the federal, state and local governments, Odaah expressed disappointment with the returns made by the NNPC.

He said that [size=14pt]the states had requested for $2bn[/size] to complement for the shortfall in revenue but got only $1billion. In September, Odaah and fellow commissioners had walked out of the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF) when the federal government said that the framework of the 2013 budget was no longer realistic and it won't augment shortfall in revenue. Odaah raised issues with the statutory allocations of previous months.

N350bn debt: DMO didn’t include Osun local debt –Akinwusi

Governorship candidate of Social Democratic Party, SDP, in Osun State, Mr. Olusegun Akinwusi yesterday said the disclosure by the Debt Management Office, DMO, that Osun State debt portfolio is sustainable, did not take into cognisance the local debt the present administration has incurred.

Hosting owners of private schools and hoteliers in Osogbo, Akinwusi urged indigenes of the state not to believe the statement from DMO that the state debt is manageable.

He said: “The truth of the matter is that the DMO is only talking about Osun’s foreign debt which was about N60 billion. DMO was not referring to local debt which I insist is over N350 billion going by documents available. Just few weeks ago, another N21.3 billion debt was taken from two commercial banks.”

Let us ask the where about of N17.5bn borrowed for the dualisation of Osogbo to Ila-Odo, as corroborated by the Bank for infrastructure to date. These items like many others were replicated in the N60bn bond, yet all these projects have been abandoned; it on record that N9.7bn would be expended on the phony urban renewal project, all to date moribund. The Ido-Osun Airport project is another nagging matter, for which billions have been expended so far, and deceitful statements made about its completion in the media.

Let us not derail the thread. i will just urge you to stop talking because your dishonesty and revisionism is sickening . Assuming what you accuse Tinubu of is correct, are you making sense to yourself or anyone here? The same Tinubu has now helped us gain Buhari as President to replace the destructive GEJ you supported who happened to hate the SW in particular and called the leaders of the region "rascals". Do I need to chronicle the real damage GEJ has done to Nigeria your ilk were begging him to continue doing for another 4 years? Dude, just discuss positives and cut out the hypocrisy and pretensions of piousness. Tinubu is a very big hero to the Yorubas when placed alongside your GEJ.

People like you are better off begging the Yorubas for forgiveness instead of coming here and trying your 'holier than thou' nonsense. Tinubu has done a lot of positives for his people and even Nigeria with how he, more than almost all others, contributed the most to make Buhari President from birthing the idea of the APC merger and actually putting in his personal effort and finance to make it happen on the long and tortuous road to depose the PDP and the very destructive GEJ. It is therefore very disgusting that it is you who supported a man on a personal mission to disgrace and mess up the Yorubas, i.e GEJ, who is now here playing uber Yoruba patriot. Just face the topic and shut up. You are beginning to really piss me off. You should come on this thread and behave with humility because you were a supporter of the PDP and GEJ when both harmed your own ethnic group and Nigeria seriously. Very likely Nigerians would be Syrian-style refugees had GEJ even carried on for another year. Yet, distastefully, you show no contrition at all and are busy attacking those who liberated our entire nation from sure doom. Even when when incontrovertible evidence showed you the destruction GEJ was supervising you still wanted him to carry on leading Nigeria and you now have the nerve to round on Tinubu? Like I said before, some of you are something else.
