OH LORD OUR GOD, WHY DO WE DESERVE AREGBESOLA AS GOVERNOR OF OSUN?

Please note that the facts stated herein are verifiable and we shall welcome all manner of feedbacks, while being ready to defend the facts and figures as stated. By the enlightenment we are hoping to achieve, we believe Osun people will become capable of making more informed electoral decisions in the future.

FINANCES
1. Aregbesola upon assumption of office increased the Security Vote being paid monthly to the Office of the governor from #250million naira to #500million naira. In the face of obvious financial hardship in the country, he has continued earning the same amount without recourse to the state of the economy.
2. Ogbeni received around #3.14billiion naira from the SURE-P allocations within 2011 and 2015 under the administration of Fmr. President Goodluck Jonathan. This allocation was paid to facilitate special projects as stipulated by the SURE-P guiding principles. These funds were neither utilized for any special projects nor were they properly accounted for.
3 He claimed that he raised Osun IGR to 1bn naira monthly sometimes in 2012. It means Osun has made at least #45billion naira in IGR between that time and now. The ends to which these funds were utilized are yet unknown.
4. Osun is currently owing $81million foreign debt one of the highest in the country.
5. Osun State under Ogbeni Aregbesola took a #30billion Naira bond (a long term loan) from the Security and Exchange Commission in 2013. This will mature for repayment in 2019.
6.Osun also took a #10billion naira Sukuk bond in 2014 with a 16.75% interest.
7. The Osun State Government through the intervention of President Muhammadu Buhari also took #34.98billion bailout fund, meant to settle workers salaries his corrupt administration owed. He received the fund buy wasn't used for what is meant for.
8. The figures above suggest that Osun now has a total debt profile of something around #145.2billion Naira. This is in light of the fact that Ogbeni himself publicly declared sometime last year that his government earned #204billion Naira in the last four years. This implies that his government has a debt profile significantly of about half his total earnings in four years.
9: Osun State under Ogbeni Aregbesola is now giving it back-to-back to the Federal Government. What do I mean by this? As of Federal Allocation for November 2015 as released in December, Osun is on deficit of #24million, meaning that the state Governments of Osun will have to deposit #24million into Federation Account to "balance the equation" for the said month. Also, Osun again received #55million for December allocation based on information released in January.
10. Aregbesola is still milking the LGs dry and doesn't want to change the current Executive Secretaries because he will be exposed. The state survives basically on LG allocations as at the time of releasing this bulletin.
11. Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola paid N15, 000 to each police officer throughout Osun in the build up to the last gubernatorial election in 2014.
12. You can imagine what the principal debt of osun could be if the FG makes monthly deductions of around #2billion from our allocations.

EDUCATION
1. Fakunle Comprehensive High School, the pride of Secondary School Education in Osun State has been demolished and the land sold to his party leader Asiwaju Bola Tinubu for the purpose of constructing a shopping centre. Aregbesola sacrificing education for monetary gains.
2. Opon Imo has been withdrawn from the possession of the sparse population of Osun Students who got the gadgets in the first place due to deficiencies unknown to the public.
3. As against his noisy claims, it was not his administration that commenced feeding of school pupils. O’Meal was named Home Grown School Feeding and Health Programme under Oyinlola, with secretariat in Abere Osun State.
4. He unified School uniforms to create a large market for Sam & Sara Nigeria Limi

He unified School uniforms to create a large market for Sam & Sara Nigeria Limited, owners of Omoluabi Garment factory. The unified uniforms has led to degeneration in school discipline while parents are being made to buy sub-standard single pair uniforms at 1,750 and above! Where on earth does all schools wear the same uniform?
5. As against the United Nations’ stipulation of thirty (30) students to a teacher, Aregbesola merged Osun State schools, fusing a school Fakunle Comprehensive High School Osogbo (with a population of up to 3000) into Osogbo Grammar School.
6 Aregbesola created the TEPO offices in the three Senatorial District to oversee Schools under their district. The heads of these offices are at Permanent Secretary Ranks and as such often constantly have a clash of authority with Permanent Secretaries of the Ministry of Education, TESCOM and SUBEB.
7. There is an extreme shortage of workforce in the Teaching Service Commission; this forced the Permanent Secretary to withdraw all TESCOM teachers in Ministry Schools back to TESCOM schools. As it stands, up to at least 14 subjects are without teachers in most Ministry-owned schools. Example is Unity School Ejigbo.
8. Under Aregbesola, Osun disconnected from the National Education standard and the state thereby runs a 3:6:3 method. (Elementary School – Pry 1-3; Middle School – Pry 4,5 & JS 1-3; High School – SS 1-3). This is applicable in no other Nigerian State.
9. Students who will sit for external examinations this year can only hope for a miracle as they have had close–to-zero academic engagement this current session.
10. The UNIOSUN vision has been so bastardized due to the failure of the State Government to effectively manage the crisis situation in the school. This has led to the sack of certain principal officers including the Vice Chancellor and the instability of the management and administration of the school system.
11. The State Government took over the responsibility of deducting monthly re-payments for staff cooperative societies that it recognizes some years back. For over two years now, the deductions made on behalf of the societies have not been remitted.
12. For the past two years, the State Government has notify remitted a single kobo of its own 5% contribution to the Pension Fund Managers of workers under the contributory pension arrangement.
13. Worse still, for more than a year now, the State Government has refused to remit the 5% contributions of the workers themselves which the State Government deducted from their salaries on behalf of the Pension Managers.
14. Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola built Osogbo High School, Ejigbo High School, Ilesha High School and the other few high schools for a whopping sum of #1.25billion per school. The middle school at alekuwodo-osogbo was also built at #750million without consideration for teachers' welfare and content.

ADMINISTRATION
1. As he is usually called 'Tyrannic Governor', the second term in office of Ogbeni Aregbesola has clocked 16months (1year 4months), it is not easy to believe that Ogbeni is running a sole adminstration without cabinet. This is nothing but the truth.
2. The Aregbesola administration has abandoned the principle of hierarchy in the appointment of Permanent Secretaries and Head of Service. The administration has resorted to the use of some ‘kangaroo’ aptitude test for Senior Civil Servants which has allowed favouritism and unwholesome practices where Junior Officers loyal to Ogbeni’s administration are now being lorded over their superiors.
3. The Aregbesola administration has so rubbished the Local Government Administrative System by running this very vital arm of government with Executive Secretaries, a term alien to the Nigerian Constitution. The set of Executive Secretaries enthroned in 2011 have had their six-month tenures renewed five times.
4. Osun has completely abandoned the principle of Due Process in the Award of Contracts. The processes of pre- qualification, tender and competit

4. Osun has completely abandoned the principle of Due Process in the Award of Contracts. The processes of pre- qualification, tender and competit

Osun has completely abandoned the principle of Due Process in the Award of Contracts. The processes of pre- qualification, tender and competitive bidding has been completely disposed. Ogbeni virtually awards contracts to cronies majority of whom are from outside Osun State. This same aregbesola just re enacted the public procurement law to cover up all the atrocities committed by his evil administration by the time he and his party are chased out of abere by 2018. The question is: Why was the scrapping of the due process office his first action as a governor in 2010? Why the sudden policy somersault after spending over five years in office?
5. This administration demolished a strategic administrative complex; the Old Governor’s office to build an international market whereas there is land available in locations around the said area. Aside this, his modern market is currently in use just like any other local market for selling of pepper, palm oil, locust beans, onions, vegetables etc.
6. Ogbeni renamed Osun State and began addressing a federating unit under the Federal Government as ‘State of Osun’. This has led to ambiguity as external relations with Osun State bear the constitutionally allowed Osun State and not his local State of Osun nomenclature.
7. Osun State Government pays majority of its contractors in cash, completely against the principle of due process.
8. The Osun State Governor goes about in the helicopter his administration purchased which he claimed was meant for security surveillance. This helicopter instead is being used for his personal transport.
9. Taxes are being collected by unknown consultants whereas the State has a Revenue Board in place which is constitutionally saddled with the responsibility of revenue collection.
10. Bola Ahmed Tinubu publicly declared at the unveiling of the ‘Opon Imo’ that Kabir, the first son of Aregbesola should be commended for helping the State procure the multi-billion naira gadgets. It means the Aregbesola government deliberately ran the affairs of the State as a nuclear family affair, completely disregarding the principles of due process and the laws guiding Government Procurement.
11. Osun State Government embarrassed the collective reasoning of Osun people by indiscriminately using copyrighted intellectual material on the Opon Imo gadgets without prior permission from the copyright owners. This led to a number of embarrassing lawsuits.

INFRASTRUCTURE
1. Ogbeni’s administration awarded the re-construction of Ejigbo-Ede via Ara; Ejigbo-Ede via Awo, Ejigbo-Oguro and Ejigbo-Iwo roads to Perfect Structures Nigeria Limited, also on a contractor financing agreement at #3.5bn Naira. The award was done without due process but was given as a reward to Remi Olowude for his support towards his election bid in 2007. The project died upon the death of the awardee since proper
organizational structures were not in place in the first place. God rest his soul.
2. The use of such Lagos-imported contractors such as WestMidlands Construction Company without the normal due process of pre-qualification, tender and bidding has also successfully killed the Local Content approach that was used by the immediate past administration.
3. The Akoda-Gbongan dualization project terminating at the Gbongan trumpet interchange has been ongoing for three years now. It is sad to note that no reasonable amount of work has been done on this project to justify the billions that has gone into this phantom project. Over #11billion has been paid to Ratcon already without a commensurate amount of work done.8
4. The O’RAMP programme is an initiative of the Federal Ministry Ministry of Works tagged ‘Rural Access and Mobility Project’ aimed at opening up the rural areas and providing access. The allocations for the programme being paid to Osun State culminated into Aregbesola’s O’RAMP. The programme is today dead.
5. The Dagbolu Industrial Project is a fake, a huge scam and an insult to the consciousness of Osun pe

one don't need 2 argue when fact n figures re established, I now see plainly how cruel Arebgerascal is to d people of Osun n it's quite unfortunate u people find ursef in succh mess, but wat can one do in ds kinda situation were EFCC can not win a single case against corrupt Governors? jst God will punish any public office holder who loot public fund! ds should always b our prayers n d power in d tongue will consume them

All this are still assumptions n not fact
