Two things are growing fast in Osun state of
Nigeria. The first being politics, while the
other, probability. At the coming state
election, the question ofhfate would be
resoluted, however, the fact remains
election, a process of voting an old trick or a
new dog, after going through an expiration of
a concluding tenure cannot be swept under
the carpet.Interest has to be checked to
compare chances of the elected.

Politics being at half price of interest is
flighty in the modern Osun state of Nigeria
where its citizens get emboldened by the
cost of decision and discrete of opinions. On
the scale, politicians present themselves
combative in the process of showing likenes,
and sense of purpose and the others, vested
with brittle or firm knowledge of political
drive and management of authority, also
push the queue with shift of belonging. With
the avoidance of breakdown, as interesting
politics, power and people can be, what
contrastive “epoch-making” is grounded in
dispensing political hywl. Would history write
in it context a person or the party? At which
point would propiety be applied on congent
pivot of friction? And what are the dangers
of perception?


I was birthed in Iwo of Osun state, a
settlement which is now topped rank of the
cities in the south western region of the
country. My frequent visitation to the town
had not only casted multi-functional reasons
why for birth sake, and also democratic
multiculturalism, the slogan ” Land Of Virtue”
must be adhered. In that, while over three
millions inhabitants of Osun state of Nigeria
awaits September 22, 2018, when a
masterstroke of the people’s interest would
be considered, once in a four years, enough
mass of lyric had been composed with
people left to play the chorus.

Ahead of log-rolling, when people would
occupy the pollen unit and exercise
franchise, was the Independent National
Electoral commission, assuring a credible
election far from bribery and corruption,
rigging and related offences. It is hardly
believable if the occurrence during the Ekiti
state gubernatorial election in 2018 would
not pave it way in Osun state as ensured by
INEC. A costly moment when people are
easily tossed with two kilograms of golden
penny wheat, needless ransom of money,
promises unkempt and flexibly decisive. In
the contrast, the Nigeria Police Force aptly
demonstrated a portion of providing a
secured electoral process in the presence of
forty thousand police officers, eight
commissioners, two helicopters, thirty each
of an armoured personal carrier vans and
patrol vehicles. Be that at it may, grounded
preparation is yet on desk as it certainty is
until when Osun inhabitants troop out on the
election day to ascribe answers to who
would take up the task.

Despite increase in the frequency of the
people’s opinion and oscillitated turn out of
the people during the campaign go-a-fishing,
what seems particularly about the absent-
mindedness of the people is to pointedly
juxtapose on the fair best of the
gubernatorial candidates among who had
practically exercised sustainable
development, got a theoretical means of
attending issues of mixed and diversified
economy.

In advance, do not pray a dog eat dog, until
then when a curate’s egg is counted, let the
cursive letters in the people’s power,
belonging to the poor and the rich be
exercised intellectually and concerted efforts
of jurisdiction be streamlined.
Remember the unfinished trial of the
lawmaker, Timothy Owoeye, found in the
open market taking a shower, is such which
alongside unfeigned exploration, must be
penalized. And as the wave storms, it is not
wrong watching the watcher.
