Loool I love the emboldened

To me, Faseun hasn't done poo.I don't even see him as an OPC member

Adams has always been at the forefront of everything

The same Adams that sold out to jonathan

Faseun also sold out; i have no faith in OPC for now until they redeem themselves.

Though they are both sell outs,Adams has obviously done a lot for the Yoruba race

Besides his party affiliation nonsense, I'll put him in the same league as Alaafin of Oyo in terms of the promotion of Yoruba culture

9jacrip,Shymm3x and totit

Its time to dance skelewu grin

This is what you've always wanted

I hope it won't follow the same tangent as Radio Biafra. It should be more about promoting Yoruba nationalism, history, culture, and subtle propaganda.

Why skelewu? We need "Gobe" for this one - seeee Gobe!

I'm think of starting the football discussion tonight. What do you think?

I saw the two posts, didn't want to quote so that we won't start another round here.


Truth is, the governors have not delivered up to expectation.

We are Yoruba's, we have standard. We are not mediocre.

All na hype.

The posts actually underscore what we have been saying on this thread.

The scorecard of our governors is a big F9.

Ibadan will always be my city cheesy

Cool, what part of Lagos?

Duke ko lmao. What's the difference between 'Ibadan chics' and all the others? We're like, just normal, no?

Lol all these adjectives for me? Nah, I'm pretty mellow, nothing 'razor' about me lol, I just chill y'know

Looool. Now you're keeping it real and trill. Me likey.

Epe but he grew up on the Island - the proper G-ed up area. That is also my favourite place in Lagos...you can't be realer than folks from there. When Nas said, "Imagine smoking weed on the streets without cops harassing you" on "If I rule the world" - he was alluding to the Island. Epe looks like a forgotten village with massive potentials when I went there but I rep the place like a real nyggah is meant to do.

Lool. Nah, it is not even that. It's coincidental that almost all the Yoruba chics I mess around with on here are from Ibadan, hence I decided to run with the title lool. You're part of my dukedom, since you're from Ibadan. Hehehe

Ha! I'll leave that alone for now lol.

APC has set its benchmark at the mediocre level of the PDP governors. As far as they are concerned, you have done well if you do more than PDP.

The emboldened is actually true about the island though.

Nights and sometimes day with my folksbin that part of Lagos has led to certain moments with folks who use weed in places cops would have outrightly torn down if it were to be on the mainland.

raumdeuter:


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 cheesy
