Aareonakakanfo: Egbon, I agree with Transparency and Accountability whole-heartedly. What I do not agree with, is an increase in taxes on already over-burdened taxpayers. I hear only about 50% of the population currently pay tax. ![]() Why can't the state govt capture the remaining 50% that do not pay tax, and devise strategies to ensure their compliance?? ![]() ![]() ![]() So my suggestion is this: 1). Implement citizen-friendly strategies to get tax defaulters to pay up; 2). Enforce transparency and accountability on the collection and utilisation of such taxes; 3). Ensure revenue from such taxes are judiciously utilised and deployed to areas where it would achieve maximum effect. ![]() 3 Likes |

TerraCotta: I love your entire post but the part in bold is my favourite. The oil income really messed a lot of things up and the plumetting price would end up being good in the long run Most of Aregbe's scheme and project I usually see people like Wole Soyinka backing them or speaking in favour. That shows Kongi is being consulted and offers his advise on these policies which would make me to believe these were well thought out policies There are several projects that can be done but when we have a crippling reccuring expenditure you cant make much progress Ogun can leverage their proximity to Lagos and be an industrail haven Oyo and Osun can go into intensive Agriculture and tourism. There is a 20M population sitting in Lagos and they have to eat. When you think of it that 80% of the food items we eat in the entire SW come from the North. How many trucks of tomatoes arrive in lagos on a daily basis. If Oyo and Osun can bite into that food supply market to Lagos and take just 30% away. That would be a great boost to the largely rural population. Of course it has to be mechanized. I am thinking should agricultural project be left to individuals or should govt go into it also? Anyone knows what has become of the Shonga farms in Kwara and how its coming on If govt take up huge farmland, provide equipment train youths on working those mechanised farming, youths willing should be employed on those farms, similar to the OYES but this one everyone works on the farm or in the Public works department where direct labour is used to fix the road instead of sweeping the street. Maybe street cleaning should be left for females. There should be a bus every 2 fridays that transport the farm workers to city to visit their family Then how do these farm produce get to the market in an efficient manner, I would suggest railway Also this final step would be controversial. All governors who are in their second term should downsize their public workers by 50%. Retire all teachers teaching irrelevant subjects. Science and Maths teachers should make at least 40% of the teaching workforce I think every governor should call all LGA chairmen and tell them to think of a way to make their LGA viable or they close down the LGA. Find a way to generate income. Look into your key strenght and suggest how the State govt can help The state govt would fund them 100% first yr, 75% 2nd yr by 4th yr all LGA should be 70% self funded and give a quarterly report of what they are doing. every Saturday invite 2 LGA chairmen on the radio, Let their people call on live TV and give feedback on how the chairman is doing The amount sent to the chairman should be public info and let them account for it in public too. Tell how many roads you have repaired in your LGA with video evidence and let people call in to back it up These were what I thought I would do if I ever become Governor of Oyo State ![]() 5 Likes |

[size=14pt]Ekiti Assembly to Pass Law Prescribing Death Penalty for Kidnappers[/size] Members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly have moved to pass a bill to make kidnappers die by hanging in the state. Expressing serious views over the twin menace of kidnapping and terrorism in the country, the assembly also moves to stipulate penalty for those who pay ransom to these evil doers. To this end, two of the three laws that were deliberated upon at the assembly’s plenary yesterday dwelt on curbing of crimes that has to do with kidnapping that has become a source of revenues for some criminals. They were Office of the Public Defender Bill (2015) and Ekiti State Kidnap and Terrorism (Prohibition) Bill (2015. Both successfully passed second reading and were passed to the appropriate committees to scrutinise for final passage. The plenary, presided over by the Speaker, Hon. Kola Oluwawole, witnessed a robust debate by members on the matters. Presenting the bills from the order paper, Deputy Leader of Business, Hon. Adeniran Alagbada, lamented the trauma victims of kidnap and their family members are often subjected to. Also speaking on the Public Defender Bill, the Chairman, House Committee on information, Hon. Olugboyega Aribisogan, noted that the bill would afford the poor who lack financial capability to pursue their cases the opportunity to access justice. In the same vein, the Chairman, House Committee on Health, Dr. Babajide Omotoso; Hon. Akinleye Ekundayo, Hon. Titilayo Owolabi-Akerele, Hon. Wale Ayeni and Ayodele Fajemilehin, who also contributed to the motions on the floor, described the bills as those that would have direct positive bearing on the lives of the people of the state. Another law, Ekiti State College of Technical and Commercial Agriculture Repeal Bill (2015), had earlier passed through first reading. Ex-Governor Kayode Fayemi had earlier signed the bill into law to enhance the establishment of a School of Agriculture in his Isan Ekiti country home, which the assembly thought would have to be abrogated due to poor financial status of the state. http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/ekiti-assembly-to-pass-law-prescribing-death-penalty-for-kidnappers/225946/ [size=14pt]GOOD OR BAD MOVE?[/size] |

Aareonakakanfo: You and I both know many there are many kidnap cases that end up costing the victims' lives. So what the fucck is the point of been trying to be civil here when it can never yeild good results?.. Aare, Abeg I concur. My homestate needs far-reaching policies like these so we dont become Ogun State. We know how countless people lose their lives frequently as a result of so many of these deadly kidnap operations. What more? Little or nearly inexistent security guarantee for people's lives. Why then let kidnappers off the loose with mire opportunities to endanger more lives? 1 Like |
