Nice one.

9jacrip:

Nice!
Now we are on the same page which should be the case with any well meaning Yoruba/Osun indegene.

The roads are rightly going to open Osun up as you've rightly stated but these roads are rushed. Take for example: the roads the OP listed to have been constructed in Ikire are mostly plied by bike-men and logger trucks. They do not lead anywhere necessary and this is why I said the construction of roads should be slow paced and selective.

Aregbe has honestly put a cart before the horse and the bridge @ Gbogan junction is unnecessary and it seems he intentionally left it untouched for a while now (many other untouched sites as such) in order to coerce people to vote him to be able to continue/finish them.

It is crazy!

My brother you are very right. As an indigent of ikire, I commend the good work Aregbe has done so far. however, there is need for him to focus more on economic development policies instead of building roads that leads to no where.

the truth is Tinubu is the biggest threat to the ruling party hence he must be brought down by every means. they first said that the northerners had highjacked the party from him but it became clear to them after the APC convention that the grand master is in total control. I don't like Tinubu's personality as a person but I will remain grateful to him for ensuring a strong opposition to checkmate the ruling party.

The son of Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State has filed a lawsuit asking a court to stop the state’s House of Assembly from an ongoing probe of his father.

Gov. Jang is facing allegations of mismanaging about N50 billion.

Last week, a nine-member committee named by the state assembly, began a preliminary hearing on the case.

The governor denies the allegation.

“If I see such an amount, the state will not remain this way,” Mr. Jang said at a recent public event.

But as the House moved to start the probe last week, Yakubu Jang, who also serves as a special adviser to his father, filed a suit in a state court, seeking an order to stop the House from initiating the processes of investigating his father.

The court has yet to fix a date for the hearing.

Musa Gondina, the chairman of the committee set by the Plateau state assembly to investigate the governor, however said that the suit would not stop the committee from doing its work.

Mr. Gondina said the committee was yet to receive any court notice to stop the probe.

The lawmakers are acting on a 10-page petition by a group called Plateau Patriotic Forum.

Among other alleged infractions, the group accused Mr. Jang of obtaining loans from banks without the approval of the House of Assembly.

The group also accused the governor of mismanagement in the disbursement of N50 billion SURE-P funds.

About 1.2 million people voted in the election.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has won all 17 chairmanship seats contested for in the Yobe local government elections.

Announcing the results on Sunday in Damaturu, the Chairman of the State Independent Electoral Commission, Mohammed Jauro, said APC secured 999,700 of the 1.2 million votes cast during Saturday’s elections.

He said the party also won the entire councillorship seats contested for.

The chairman said the electoral body did not receive any complaints from any quarters on the conduct of the elections.

“The successful conduct of the polls is a proof that peace has returned to the state,” Mr. Jauro said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that there had been fears that the poor security situation in the state, following insurgents’ activities, would affect the polls’ conduct.

However, the spokesperson of the Military Joint Task Force in the state, Capt. Eli Lazarus, said that the force had not received any report of security breach during the polls.

Ten political parties participated in the elections, with the main opposition party in the state, the PDP, boycotting the polls.

The PDP had cited the security situation as its reason for not taking part in the elections.

UPDATE 2 the six Rivers state lawmakers seeking to impeach the state’s governor, Rotimi Amaechi, have gained entry into the sealed Rivers state House of Assembly building to commence ‘plenary’.

The group, led by Evans Bipi, were sneaked into the building by police officers and are believed to have commenced a quasi-plenary.

UPDATE 1

The six members of the Rivers state House of Assembly opposed to Governor Rotimi Amaechi are planning to hold a plenary today to commence impeachment proceedings against the governor, people familiar with the matter have told PREMIUM TIMES.

The faction, which enjoys the backing of President Goodluck Jonathan and his wife, Patience, is currently strategizing on how to discreetly access the sealed Assembly complex to hold its sitting, our sources said.

The sources said the police in the state have agreed to provide cover for the lawmakers to hold their sitting.

The spokesperson for the Rivers Police Command, Ahmad Muhammad, wouldn’t confirm or deny the allegation.

“I’m in Lagos at this time, and do not know what is happening in Rivers,” he told PREMIUM TIMES on telephone

The leader of the group of six lawmakers, Evan Bipi, confirmed to PREMIUM TIMES his group would meet today.

“Yes, we are going to meet today at the Assembly complex,” he said in a telephone interview. “The police are asking for the court judgment before they will allow us sit but I’m currently talking to them. In a little while, lets say 10 a.m., we will proceed to the Assembly.”

Mr. Evan did not say what his group would discuss at its sitting.

He however insisted that it was only his group that deserved access to the Assembly complex to hold meetings.

“I took them to court and won so why should they try to sit there. That was why the police stopped them. But the police will allow us to sit.”

But the deputy speaker of the Assembly, Leyii Kwani, told PREMIUM TIMES Friday morning that his group would resist any attempt by the police to allow the Evan Bipi-led group to sit.

“We will not fold our arms and allow them to commit illegality,” Mr. Kwani said on the telephone. “We will repeat what we did yesterday by trying to sit too. If the police do not allow us to enter the Assembly, we will sit outside. If that does not work, we will move elsewhere to continue our sitting.”

The police had on Thursday disrupted a sitting of the 26 lawmakers loyal to Mr. Amaechi.

The lawmakers, led by Mr. Kwani, had converged on the Assembly to sit in compliance with a high court order barring the National Assembly from taking over the functions of the Assembly.

But as the lawmakers tried to gain entry, the police quickly descended on the Assembly and sealed off the complex.

The lawmakers then decided to hold their sitting outside the complex.

But the police suddenly began shooting teargas and live ammunition at the lawmakers who quickly took to their heels scampering for safety.

Speaking to PREMIUM TIMES after the incident, the state Commissioner of Information, Ibim Semenitari said, “It is an indication of the impunity ravaging the country and a clear indication that the PDP under the present leadership has lost all forms of democratic conduct.

They can’t even pretend to wear a mien of civility rather they are practising jackboot governance and repression worse than we have ever seen under the military.”

LATEST WORD ON DR EMMANUEL FASHAKIN's ARREST BY SSS - by: Rotimi Fashakin - 30th November, 2013

Dear friends and Compatriots,

It gives me immense pleasure to formally announce to you all that Dr Emmanuel Fashakin was released at exactly 6pm yesterday (29/11/2013) after over 13hours of arrest and detention, without food or the courtesy of water.

He went through a horrendous ordeal in the custody of the SSS.

There was an attempt to force him to 'implicate' himself with prepared statements. He refused! After his arrest, he was searched to see if he had an equivalent of N5Million on me so that a charge of contravention of currency regulation could be brought against him.That also failed.

The major charge against him was that he expressed, on his facebook page, preference for military rule since President Jonathan is leading the country precipitously. How, in a supposed democracy that should entrench plurality of opinion, that should ruffle some feathers is left to be seen by keen watchers!

I must use this medium to thank all the good people out there, who have brought much pressure on the principalities in the land to prefer the culture and tradition of repression of the citizenry as a default governance of the affairs in the Polity.

The Almighty God deserves all the Praise that all through Emmanuel's travails, favour and mercy were not in short supply. The American Embassy also showed immense courage in asking that a man who holds the american passport be treated with utmost fairness.

Barrister Bamidele Aturu, a Nigerian whose unquestionable thirst for social Justice, deserves much commendation.

The initial call in the morning was to his wife who passed the phone to him. The spontaneity of his response will continue to leave deep impression on me. And to all of you: the unflinching advocacy and condemnation of that show of turpitude by the SSS, clearly showed that all is not lost for Nigeria. Indeed, the multifarious pressure from the various segments drastically reduced the detention duration from 30 days to a little over 13 hours!

I do hope that this sordid saga will be laid to rest completely and not discourage Nigerians in diaspora from stepping into the land of their nativity.

I thank you all.

Rotimi Fashakin (Engr.)

curiouslad: Has there ever been a graceful acceptance of election results in this country?

Elections was conducted in Ondo state and all parties involved accepted the result in good faith because it was free and fair to all. Let us stop supporting nonsense, the election in Anambra is a complete scam.

I woke up this morning to make a very important call but MTN was a big mess(Network was really bad).
I was like; maybe I should port to another network, but I am not sure which network is better...

This goes to those that have ported from one network to another, please let us know your experience.

congratulations Dude!

Whao!!! Outstanding revelations from you all.

Logicboy03: God never stopped writing after the bible and the quran because he never wrote them himself in the first place.

The bible was written by ancient Jewish desert dwellers over centuries and then selectively compiled by the church.
The quran is just an Arabic interpretation of the bible, repackaged with some Arabc culture dictated by the Prophet.


If you are looking for a recent holy book, the mormon christian have their book of mormon written in the 19th century.


God did not inspire any of these books. They all carry illogical passages and screwed morality. For one, all of them do not

-have anything tangible to say about underage marriage
- abolish slavery, rather they take a regulatory role for it

Thanks for your comment. I've read the book of mormon and there is nothing really much different from the bible and koran. although it only focused on early christian life.

As a Christian, I read the bible a lot and I have a firm believe that most of the writings in the bible was actually inspired by God. Our Islam brothers and friends also believes that the Holy Koran was also inspired by God. However, I belong to that school of thought that allows rational thinking and reflection. This question goes to fellow Christians, Islams and all rational thinking human. Did God actually stopped writing, inspiring and commanding after the writings of these two great books?

Ngige is an intelligent man. Ethnicity has nothing to do with qualitative leadership...

Efforts by the Governor of the State of Osun, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola to achieve agricultural development through collaborative efforts have yielded fruits as the first batch of 20 youths chosen for training in best practice agriculture abroad are to depart for the State of Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, next week.

Already, the youths were last Friday at the Conference Room of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security, Osogbo, taken through an orientation programme handled by different level of experts in health, information and communications technology and ethical trainings.

Topics treated included “Food, clothing, medication and health insurance in Germany: Implications for first-time and non-frequent travelers” and others based on the concepts of virtuous living and the Six-Point Integral Action Plan of the Aregbesola administration.

Governor Aregbesola, who is expected to counsel the youths on Monday before their final departure had last year, secured the collaboration of the German State of Saxony-Anhalt to train a total of 40 youths in Germany in the best agricultural practices for the achievement of his administration’s food security programme.

The collaboration between the State of Osun and the State of Saxony-Anhalt in the Federal Republic of Germany was achieved during the maiden week-long visit of Governor Rauf Aregbesola to the European country in May 2012.

German authorities have issued visas to the youths to facilitate their trip to Europe under the auspices of Governor Aregbesola’s Quick Impact Intervention Programme (QIIP).

Upon arrival in Germany, the youths are to spend an intensive period of four weeks in formal agricultural training school where they would be taken through the rudiments of agriculture and food crop production techniques.

After this, the Osun youths are to be attached to 11 large scale co-operative farmers in the State of Saxony-Anhalt in Germany where they are to spend the last eight weeks in learning and building on the assessed capacities and interests of each of them.

In furtherance of this collaboration, the German government had sent language and Agricultural Implements and Terms Proficiency expert who arrived Nigeria and began work last January 3 and trained the youths till June, 2013.

The training was to prepare the youths for their study periods in Germany as well as introduce them to some of the assignments they would be expected to undertake abroad.

Apart from their training in agriculture, the youths would also serve as middle level link between the German experts and the State of Osun when the German Best Practice Demonstration Farm takes off.

This is the product of the collaboration put in place by Governor Aregbesola and the German government of the State of Saxony-Anhalt when he visited the European country last year.

Whao!!! I can't but marvel to Wole Soyinka's achievements...absolutely second to none.
