10th September 2019 will go down as a day PS 91 was manifested in my life!!

By Fola Richie - Adewusi

The Obirinkete Tour a statewide women empowerment program organized by H.E. Erelu Bisi Fayemi the wife of the Governor of Ekiti State entered it's second day and will be in my Local Government- Oye Local Government with the headquarters being Oye Town. I did not go with the team to the other two Local Governments ( Moba and Ilejemeje) that day because I wanted to be at my Local Government to make sure all the women we have mobilized were there and all was set.

So I set out with Mrs Funke Falodun, the SA Land who is also from my ward because my driver was on leave. We got to the outskirts of Oye town and we saw vehicles parked that the FUOYE students have blocked the road protesting power outage. Travellers going to Abuja and other places were parked. We were told they have been there since 7am! We were there for about 2 hrs. I called the CSO and he said yes they are aware and that they are dialoguing with the students because they do not want to use force so that the situation will not get out of hand. After some time we were advised to leave our car behind and walk across so we can take a bike to the venue of the Empowerment program. Thank God I was on flats so we walked across and the students were making jest if us that we were exercising.

Shortly after the students opened up the road and we got a lift to the venue of the program.

About 45mins later, Erelu's entourage arrived through another route and the program started in earnest. Midway into the program we were hearing commotion outside and those outside rushing in with different objects flying and landing on the roof of the building where we were. We asked what was going on, we were told that the students have mobilized to come and disrupt the program. That cars parked on the road are being vandalized. There was panic and we had to cut short some of the other activities and ended the program.
To go out now became another issue, there was confusion, tear gas were used to dispersed the students but they did not relent. People were just entering any available vehicle just to get out of the place.

As we were going one big stone landed on the windscreen of Mrs Falodun's car and the boys were laughing! We were just shouting JESUS till we got out of the town!

When we got to Ado, in all more than 20 vehicles on the entourage were vandalized. People when were injured were being given first aid. Including Erelu's Orderly who had an injury very close to her eyes!

I have never witnessed anything like that before and do not pray to witness it against!

If truly those were students then Nigeria is in trouble! I still wonder how the disruption of an empowerment program will bring light to them. Erelu is not the BEDC MD and FUOYE is not a State University. If they want Erelu to help plead their cause, will it be by vandalizing and maiming people??
I am Hoping the Police will unmask those behind the incident.

I thank God for sparing my life! Glory to God!!

There's is anger in the land ...Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gun powder at any slightest ignition the latter will explode gbaau! and our eyes will clear both the rich and the poor.

How this take concern me
The whole ekiti state aside ado ekiti the entire ekiti state no get up to 7bank branch....... Secondly [b]aside same ado ekiti[/b]the rest no get beta hospital and their useless gomina always come media they promote nonsense starting from dat useless fayose ..... They for stone erelu self

We never expected a different cooked up story

Ftc

Is alright

Very sad.

Show us the picture of those injured from the entourage.

you will help them solicit for help........ and you don't think they need the help now.

They will need to beg you before you do the needful........

Lies upon lies

Where are pictures and videos to corroborate your claims. This is Naija and people film this kinda thing when it happens if it ever does.

Y'all are just saying things to discredit the students and justify the unwarranted loss of life that happened as a result of your WCM paymasters

Moreover, this must have happened after the student saw that their colleague has been shot. It was a peaceful protest before y'all came into the picture

megrimor:
We never expected a different cooked up story

I know you will say cook up story..... Try even for once be neutral in ur judgments
The question you are supposed to ask urself is,
what connection does Erelu has with Power outage in federal University?. For u to be a student or teenager doesn't make u to take law into your own hands. How I wish the sch managements impose damages on all the students next time they will know how not to misbehave

So that was why students were killed abi?

Arranged and coated story. We all know how those convoy behave in naija . Even ordinary LGA chairman get convoy to chase away his local men

That's very bad... And ignorant on our so call youth... The government will still use the state �money to repair those belonging / property vandalized.
Our education/parenting system still have very long way to go....

There is serious frustration in the land, from the east to the west, and north to the south. Nigeria had never been this bad. The same way a SE senator was attacked in far away Germany is likely the same way angry Nigerians will be letting out their fumes on those in the corridors of power who are enjoying our collective resources.
This is just the beginning
