Bola Tinubu Releases N30billion To ACN Candidate, Akeredolu To Unseat Mimiko by manchy7531: 8:30am On Aug 09, 2012
According to what First Weekly Magazine reported, the National leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is
determined to make sure his political party wrestles power from the incumbent Labour Party in Ondo State in the next governorship elections, which is scheduled to hold on 20th October 2012.

According to First Weekly Magazine’s findings, Asiwaju Tinubu has released a whooping 30 billion naira to the CAN governorship candidate, Barrister Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN), to prosecute the political war and unseat the incumbent Gov. Segun Mimiko of the Labour Party.

Our source informed us that the former Lagos State Governor has already deployed all his political warriors to Ondo State, to make sure the state is delivered for ACN.

“Yes, it’s true Asiwaju has approved N30 billion for ACN in Ondo State. And I want to assure you that the money will be spent well to win the governorship election,” a source confided in us.

We further gathered that Tinubu sees winning Ondo State by the ACN as very
important to his dream of regional integration of the South West zone.

“It’s very important we get back the glory of the South West, and Ondo State is very key to the development of the entire South West. That is why Asiwaju is not taking this with kids’ gloves at all. I can tell you that you will see changes in the campaign strategies of the ACN in the next few days.

“It is just two months to the election, and I want to confess to you that Ondo people already know that it’s only ACN that can deliver democracy dividends for them,”an ACN stalwart in Ondo State stated.

But on the contrary, a Labour Party chieftain, who spoke with us on the condition of anonymity, said ACN does not exist in Ondo State.

“Where is the structure of ACN in Ondo? They are bringing in people from Lagos to come and fool Ondo indigenes. But we are very intelligent here. Mimiko is our man and we have decided in Ondo to give him a second term.

“Forget regional integration they are preaching. They know that apart from Lagos, Ondo is the richest in South West. Tinubu’s eyes are in our oil money, and we won’t let him get it. You see, combine Ekiti, Osun, Ogun and Oyo state’s allocation together, it is not up to what Ondo State gets from it’s 13 percent derivation of oil. So, it’s our oil money that Tinubu wants, and he won’t even smell it,” the Labour Party official said. A political observer who spoke with us also cast doubt on the chances of the action congress winning the Ondo governorship race.

“Before Akeredolu was forced on the party members of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), as their flagbearer, the ACN was in close second, giving the Labour Party a real threat, but with the choice of Akeredolu, the ACN has slipped to the third, behind even the
PDP, the party is so much in disarray now. Can you imagine that out of the about 41 in the race, the night Akeredolu was pronounced as the flagbearer, about twenty one of them decamped to the Labour Party, while between twelve and fifteen left for the PDP. You can see what imposition of candidates can do.

“Ask Asiwaju what Tunji Abayomi told him, when he called them to a peace meeting. He said Tinubu has destroyed ACN in Ondo, also can you imagine what Professor Boroffice is going through now? The man was enjoying himself ‘jeje’ in the Senate, when Tinubu started mounting pressure on him and started sending text messages to him and his wife
that he is the next Governor of Ondo, the senator bought the bait and jumped from the Labour ship to ACN or is it the case of Abraham, a young enterprising billionaire, who was enjoying his peace in America only to be invited home, used and dumped?

“If you add all these, and the fact that the ACN leaders wanted to pay back a favour done them by somebody to the detriment of the party’s goodwill in the state, the outcome might be disastrous,”he said.

The boldened part is the more reason, why much is expected from Mimiko. He has enough money to achieve way more than he has done. The labour party official is actually making statements that could sink its gubernatorial candidate

Re: Bola Tinubu Releases N30billion To ACN Candidate, Akeredolu To Unseat Mimiko by olugbemi4u: 1:47pm On Aug 09, 2012
Mimiko has failed the people of Ondo state. The issue is not about Asiwaju Tinubu supports but political antecedent of Mimiko will speak against him is a matter of time and people has seen light after the tunnel.
1,Mimiko is an epitome of betrayal because of the role he played since the era of Ajasin,Adefarati and Agagu against 2nd term is a vital political issue against him,don’t forget that the remnant of their spirit and followers are so much around the corner to rise against IROKO as soon as election draw nearer.
2, The total federal allocation he has collected has nothing to write about compare to his performers over N600 billion excluding loan and internal generated revenue
3, He has spent more than N700 Million on buying awards across the nation
thier are a lot of project initiated by Dr.Agagu which Iroko abandon.eg ondo state University of Technology Okitipupa,Omotosho and Olokola free trade zone etc to mention few.infact,ikale people and ilaje does't want to hear MIMIKO AT ALL. kindly find attachment
Re: Bola Tinubu Releases N30billion To ACN Candidate, Akeredolu To Unseat Mimiko by EkoIle1: 2:09pm On Aug 09, 2012
This mimiko man is definitely one of the most useless governors in Nigeria. You are rich like Lagos, but Lagos is moving ahead while condo is heading backward. Ondo still looks like village and all the projects in the state are mushroom village projects.


Thank God, ACN to the rescue .

I am from Ondo state any time I visited the state I fill ashamed with the primordial approach applied by Mimiko.in fact, right from the entrance from ILESHA AKURE road nothing is happening and the state is as rich as Lagos, as backward as village in fact, the spirit of profligacy of the highest order all the money he has stolen the record is available is a matter of time it will be published as soon as possible. He was once arrested in USA for money launderings. That is why Ondo state head of service has continuously warning civil servant not to release vital document to the public. Over 400million spent to construct roundabout at Alagbaka junction.ACN is on rescue mission. All the town and villages visited by Akeredolu the reception was overwhelm

30 billion, haba. Even a fool knows that it is impossible to spend such huge amount. Commenting on such a figure is absurd. It a mere propaganda. We are good in absolving things and we don't like to ask some questions.
If Tinubu would spend such a frivolous amount alone for Ondo politics as claimed by the reporter, I can bet it with you all those people u said decamp would never decamp. That money would by them all. Most of them would shut up for just a bribe of 100m at most and a promise of a position.
Am not interested in the election but pls release better information. Even PDP that is financially bouyant can not expend such an amount.

Has the 'whooping' amount been 'approved' or 'released'? The softsell that could not even spell 'whopping' correctly should choose one of the lies.
