IyaIode: I beg to disagree, oh! Adesina tried in the following areas: 1). Breaking the cartel of fertiliser-hoarding businessmen, and ensuring fertiliser got to grass-roots farmers at reduced rates; 2). Getting more people involved in agribusiness, especially packaging and processing of agricultural products; 3). Ensuring enough storage and availability of food despite the huge floods recorded across the middle belt and parts of the south-south in 2012 and 2013; 4). Ensuring improved standards of agricultural products especially the packaged flour products, and dried fishery products etc. After he left, the fertiliser cabal seems to have come back into play, and the storage of food products has nose-dived as some of the agricultural silos are currently functioning at a lower capacity, than they did before. The problem in the agricultural sector is lack of consistency and sustainability. |

DollyParton1: Well.. should we just agree both Akwa Ibom and Osogbo have the most stable electricity supply in Nigeria? |

@Laudate I saw ya earlier post. I'm not ignoring you. I just haven't been able to sit down and write a cogent response. You can see that my posts are somewhat incoherent. I just got in now and I'm about to blow out again to do shopping and run to the gym. But I should reply later tonight cos I'm not working tomorrow and I should stay awake till late to watch NBA. Sorry about that, Laudate Dominum. |

Aareonakakanfo: Well, dunno much about Akwa Ibom and its electricity. |

Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by laudate: 8:19pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
WIZGUY69: Please don't get me wrong! I have NOT said that power is not stable in Osogbo and other parts of Osun State. I am only saying that power is also stable in many parts of Akwa Ibom, because of the huge power infrastructure in that state, and also because the state govt there chose to invest in IPP such as the Ibom Power Plant. This was given as an example, to show that SW governors can also invest in power generation plants/schemes. In many parts of Lagos and Ogun, power supply is quite poor. In the Lekki-Epe axis for example, there has been little or no power in Lekki Phase 1, Mayfair, Jakande, Lakowe, Ibeju etc for over 2 weeks. From Festac to Okokomaiko, Alaba, Ijanikin and Apapa, the story is similar. Same goes for Otta, Mowe and Agbara. Poor power supply has been a problem. Only parts of Ikeja, Maryland and I think Ogba have recorded improvements in power supply. I don't know much about power supply in Ondo and Ekiti states. |

WIZGUY69: Loool. Apart from the fat that he's fat - he is moving slow like a fat boy. And that is the game who was brilliant all through school. Some folks are just mere book readers lol. He spend more time trying to critique his predecessor than doing his own thing. I'm not feeling that guy, man. |

Shymm3x:Well said my brother. Actually the Fayemi governorship was a misnomer. He should have left politics for the politicians. To me Fayemi is not cut out for politics. He is a technocrat per excellence and very good at policy formulation. He could have stayed in the background and allow the likes of Dele Alake, Michael Opeyemi Bamidele to run the show. I could remember when I went to Ekiti state last year for a project. All the people were complaining of was that he speaks too much English. That means his lofty ideas did not resonate with the people. And not particularly in Ekiti where the likes of Fayose has raised the stake on people-friendly governance. I still have my reservations on that fat guy in Lag. I don't see him raising the stakes like Fashola did. And to make it worse, people are now seriously complaining about him. That is the problem when you succeed someone like Fash. Imagine the current traffic situation in Lagos and Fash still on the sit! As per Kemi Adeosun, she has the opportunity to prove herself. Her ministry is one hell of a job at this point in time of economic woes and recession. I only pray she lives up to expectation. 1 Like |

razid: Nice. I hope they all prevail and do us proud. I just checked Kemi Adeosun's profile and I'm loving the fact that she's not ya typical Bretton woods lackey. Tired of those folks and their agents ruining African countries. Also her background in auditing is definitely needed going forward...I'll like to see how she fares in micro/macro economics and putting Nigeria's economy on the right track. Daunting job based on how they messed up the place and folks need to give her time. Happy Ondo got the minister for state in the Niger/Delta ministry - nice. We also nicked the health ministry - that is decent as well. |

IyaIode: Good. I never read their manifesto. I campaigned for Jonathan Ologogoro online, the Ologogoro lost to GrandPa. I wish APC well. Also, they need to encourage investors to invest in private rail lines. Lagos-Abuja, Lagos-Calabar, Lagos-Jos(through Ogun, Ondo, Edo, Delta, Anambra, Enugu, Kogi, Benue, Plateau), Abuja-Kano, Abuja-Sokoto, Abuja-Calabar, Abuja-PHC. NorthEast is a no go area for now. There are lots of Trillionares in this country who do not know what to do with their wealth. Government only need to create an enabling environment, there is no need to be afraid of sabotage from cabals because most of the cabals are going to show interest and invest into the private rail lines. Like I'd earlier said, the most important factor is the Political Will. If we are willing, everything is possible. 1 Like 1 Share |
