What's inside your bogus and election related rubbish laptop?

Where is the website for the program?.

Where is the infrastructure and tech support to support this so called laptop scam?

Where are the solar panels to supply power needed to power the laptops lik they have in Osun schools?

Today, who be the mumu?

Today, one state tops the WAEC and NECO performance table with a decent economy to boot, while the other scrapes the bottom of the barrel in WAEC with a fast-dying middle class.
Nairaland pseudointellectuals have been shamed today.

OPON IMO @ #8.6 billion for 3600
lets break the price down that brings the unit cost to #2.4million naira each for the tab

went online to check the features of this OPN IMO @ http://osun.gov.ng/education/opon-imo/device/
and its pretty much an android 4.0 tab with 512GB of RAM and some other apps loaded on it

the latest ipad pro http://www.apple.com/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-pro/32gb-silver-wifi is $700 lets convert @ $1 = #260 the tab ends up @ #208,000 most apps on it are free dictonary, bible.... lets say they paid for 5 apps and lets include logistics (shipping and handling) that will not amount to over two million mind you the shitty tab they are using runs at about $50 (#13,000)

same goes for the laptop and printers

this is just ridiculous and insane

thats what i did before posting my comment and if i am missing anything I will be glad if you can point it out, inflating that shitty tab that costs #13,000 to #2.4 million can never be justifiable and to let you know no hasty assumption here i checked online to see whats all loaded in the tab and that still wont make up for the over #2.3million per tab

cost of building apps on android platform is about $500 - $5000 convert that @ #260 or lets go to high end apps like twitter with landing cost of about $15000 thats still about #3.9 million for the whole project not per tab so "EGBON StOla" how will you justify the excess spent on this project

the only point you can make is the project is not worth that much and thats not in this thread.

so STFU and reason before you type your hasty post.

Many posters then in 2013 on this thread proved themselves to be fools, now years later, you just proved that the world will never lack fools.

It is good you find the cost ridiculous and you even made the effort to look up some features of the tablet, but did you also look up the cost of the project from any reliable source?
Do you see any source referenced by the OP? Do you believe every assertion made by any random anonymous Internet ID?

The Opon Imo project saved the Osun State government N8.6B, not cost.

Apparently, someone suffering from conjunctivitis saw the report and thought that he saw cost instead of saved. He decided to raise some unnecessary dust, by comparing it to another state's project, only to end up disgracing himself and quietly disappeared from the discussion.

Mind you, the Opon Imo was a UNICEF supported project, which was commissioned with much fanfare and participation by same UNICEF.

Do you think they do not know what N8.6B is, to have identified with such waste if it was so?

I repeat, take your time and read till the end of the 1st page. I will be waiting for your response.

You are dumb. Where are the tablets today? Did 3600 tablets even find their way into the hands of public school students? I make bold to inform you that only a maximum of two schools per LG got the tablets and they have since been withdrawn since last year. I challenge you to visit any LG in Osun if you have ever been there.

Stop misleading people on social media with dumb news that you read on The Nation newspaper. Even Osun parents already know Opon Imo was a scam.

I am not a media representative for either state's government.

I believe useful information should be found on the state's website and from people who are resident in either state.

I have not heard that Osun state schools are suffering unchecked dilapidation. Instead, the news coming from Osun has been about the government commissioning great structures and promising to do more. I believe the bulk of the positive news that has emanated from Osun state since Aregbesola's tenure has been about the investments made in education. For this singular reason, I expect Osun to compete favourably with any other state in Nigeria.

While the pictures in the link you have posted look good, you sure haven't seen the pictures of the schools Aregbesola commissioned.


The bone of contention here is about the OP falsely propagating information about the cost of the Opon Imo project and comparing this false cost to the cost of laptops bought by Anambra state.

You really should stop reading news online and get down to physical verification of these facts. Yes, Aregbesola commissioned school buildings and I will take the last one as an example, the Wole Soyinka High School which is located in the town where I grew up.

1. The school was built in the very outskirts of Ejigbo and it is not standing on the premises of any of the present High Schools in Ejigbo.

2. Till date, the state government is still confused as to what modalities to be used in moving students into that school. Do they move a particular school completely or pick students randomly from all the schools?

3. That building is the ONLY High School Building that the government of Aregbesola built in the whole of Ejigbo Local Government. Every other High School in the LG are in the most worrisome States possible.

4. The education sector in Osun State presently is very understaffed while the few staff available are so demotivated that they hardly want to teach. Schools are not getting subventions, exams are being handwritten on chalk boards, students are being made to buy uniforms for 1950 per pair and all manner of silly trends.

Please stop believing the silly window-dressing, Aregbesola is just a master of propaganda. A lot of things are in a standstill in Osun at the moment and you never will find the truth on The Nation!

Thank you

You asked much more. You also made allusions to the position of Osun schools as opposed to Anambra schools.You went ahead to provide a link to buttress what you believe was a superior academic facility by the Anambra state government.

Now see link below and feed your eyes to what Aregbesola is also doing in Osun state

www.nairaland.com/2749096/aregbesola-set-commission-ejigbo-high

It is easy for anyone to think his own farm is the biggest, when you haven't any idea what else exist in the wild.

As for Opon Imo, I don't get your argument. Are you saying that an initiative that saved N8.6B relative to the alternative, is not sustainable?
Are you implying that the project was a waste while adjudged to have saved N8.6B?

Why should a cheaper initiative not be sustainable? That question should not even come up at all.

As long as Osun state wants to continue saving money, that cheaper alternative will forever be sustainable.

Except of course, the contractor lobby to supply books and other analogue teaching paraphernalia is greater than the common sense to provide a cheaper and advanced alternative.

Opon imo is no longer there again, UNESCO labelled it substandard. Such a waste of public funds.
And whoever said UNICEF sponsored it is lying.

Peter obi has it .

The link I showed you was not facility comparison but to butress the fact that 3years later Peter Obi's policy is yielding fruits 'cos schools from the state are winning awards in ICT related competitions.

While I continue to ask you how has Opon Imo improved the academic chances of the Osun students 3years later! Are they still making use of the Opon Imo today? If yes I need a link to that effect and not a newly constructed educational edifice!

this will be my last interaction with you because in your foolishness you keep contradicting yourself
I will start by letting you know I went to a public high school and its a big false claim that Osun state is spending billiions of naira on books if they are not spending that much how will they save it
I graduated from OAU so I am familiar with whats on ground I can talk of high school in ife and modakeke because we organised few outreach in ife and modakeke, i had my NYSC orientation camp in Ede and I know what I saw in public schools, i have friends that served in Osun and I know what their experience is so its a big scam for someone to tell be they spend N8B on books.

thanks for providing the links, and from your link @ http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/06/19/opon-imo-inspirational-message-from-state-of-osun/ your initial claim was oh opon imo is free UNICEF supported it the govt i saving N8b, lies lies lies ..... "Aregbesola, the Governor of the state, who conceived the whole idea while window shopping in an electronic store, announced during the launching that the total cost of the project is slightly above N200 million" thats for 150,000 tabs and N2.55 B for JAMB and WAEC past question, N38.25 billion for virtual classroom, 63 e-textbooks preloaded at cost of N9.45 billion

total cost of the project is even more than N8B from your post
cost of tab N200M
past questions jamb and waec N2.55B
virtual classroom N38.25B
63 preloaded books N9.45B

so thanks for your link the actual cost of this project is N50.45 billiion for 150,000 students. who is the big fool now you of course
i will just address the cost of loading the virtual classroom that cost a whooping sum of N38.25B

All they did was develop android app and load it on the tabs so the only cost should be that of developing the app which should not be more than $15,000(convert @ $1=N260) will give N3.9M

I know your ignorance and foolishness still wont make you understand thank good we all have smartphones, if you need an app you either go to the app store to download it or you can actually sideload it from the APK.
the only cost involved is building the app but instead they multiplied that by 150,000
SCAM,SCAM SCAM

I guess you were part of the scam and thats why you blood is hot. [size=48pt]AWON OLE JATI JATI

1. JAMB & WASC past questions for all subjects for a period of ten years on 17 subjects at a conservative estimate of N1000 per subject will give a conservative figure of N2,550,000,000 (N2.55 billion).
2. Virtual Classroom zone containing 51 audio tutorials estimated at about N5000 per session gives N38,250,000,000 (N38.25 billion) for 150,000 students.
3. 63 e-textbooks preloaded at a conservative estimate of N1000 each comes to N63,000 x 150,000 = N9,450,000,000 (N9.45 billion)

You really should stop reading news online and get down to physical verification of these facts. Yes, Aregbesola commissioned school buildings and I will take the last one as an example, the Wole Soyinka High School which is located in the town where I grew up.

1. The school was built in the very outskirts of Ejigbo and it is not standing on the premises of any of the present High Schools in Ejigbo.

2. Till date, the state government is still confused as to what modalities to be used in moving students into that school. Do they move a particular school completely or pick students randomly from all the schools?

3. That building is the ONLY High School Building that the government of Aregbesola built in the whole of Ejigbo Local Government. Every other High School in the LG are in the most worrisome States possible.

4. The education sector in Osun State presently is very understaffed while the few staff available are so demotivated that they hardly want to teach. Schools are not getting subventions, exams are being handwritten on chalk boards, students are being made to buy uniforms for 1950 per pair and all manner of silly trends.

Please stop believing the silly window-dressing, Aregbesola is just a master of propaganda. A lot of things are in a standstill in Osun at the moment and you never will find the truth on The Nation!

Thank you

Don't mind the idiot called StOla, he's delusional for the past few years Osun state has the worst waec results in the whole of Nigeria so why waste N50billiion on opon imo and claim you are saving N8billion they are not even spending

i have been to schools in ife and modakeke while in OAU, same goes for schools in Ede and Oshogbo and StOla is an big scumbag

In your neck of the woods, the downloaded text materials is worth billions of naira

your idiocy will make even the devil to be ashamed of you .

Did you use your pubic hair as snuff ?

When you are so used to pirated materials and freebies why wouldn't you alude that west african exam board certified content is not subject to intellectual property guarantees.

We are speaking of multiple licenses, we are speaking of programs such as Microsoft suite etc preloaded, certified text books from publishers.
Multiply that many times over
