EYITAYO JEGEDE, I WARNED YOU BEFORE TODAY.............
YOUR RAIN OF SHAME WILL SOON FALL
EYITAYO JEGEDE: A BAD CHOICE. ELECTION IS ABOUT THE
STATE AND ITS PEOPLE. NOT ABOUT MIMIKO; A FAILED
INDIVIDUAL.
In my candid opinion here, I maintained that Eyitayo Jegede is a
bad choice for Ondo state.
Their's no doubting the fact that Eyitayo Jegede has intimidating
credentials. A lawyer, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and the
immediate past Chief Law Officer of our beloved state.
However, Eyitayo was imposed on us in 2009 by Governor
Olusegun Mimiko and for the convenience of Olusegun Mimiko.
Eyitayo Jegede was never cleared or vetted by Ondo State
National Assembly or the good people of Ondo State themselves.
So, his coming to the stage was Mimiko's calculation as the
game plan is currently unfolding before our very eyes.
The key question is: does it take ONLY an enviable credentials to
be qualified for the Office of State Governor? In my strong
opinion, the answer is capital NO.
One of the key reason that we have failed at all levels of
government as a people is largely due to the fact that we
Nigerians particularly, we the people of Ondo State, don't ask the
right questions. Besides, we don't do our own findings before we
draw conclusions.
It was the same mistake we made in 2007. We should have learn
lessons.
We often get carried away with paper qualifications, crafted
speeches, unnecessary sympathy and whatever we hear from any
corner.
We must desist from these uncultured ways of thinking , if we are
genuinely concerned about our lives, our future, those of our
children, the generation unborn and if we must find a holistic
lasting solutions to the problem of leadership in Ondo State and
in Nigeria as a whole.
Let dig into the issues of Eyitayo Jegede. ..
What social development projects has Eyitayo Jegede initiated
and actually implemented not just in Ondo Central but, across the
entire Ondo State in the last seven and half years?
To be more concise; How many lives has he affected or
empowered in Ore, Odigbo, Okeigbo, Olowo, Akoko, Okitipupa,
Aye, Idanre, Araromi Obu, Ile-Oluji, Ondo town, Owena, Apoi,
Gbeguren, Ugbo etc?
Has he ever advised Mimiko on the needs assessment to
address the electricity problem that engulfed the entire Ondo
South Senatorial District for almost 4 years?
How many times, has Eyitayo Jegede as the Chief Law Officer of
our beloved state written an open letter to the affected areas
through their representatives at the State or Federal levels or
actually went on air to let them know that he shared their pains in
those trying times.
Under the watch of Eyitayo Jegede as the Chief Law Officer of
our state, innocent Ondo indigene protesters in Ore town while in
the midst of preparation to protest lack of electricity that has
crippled their businesses for over four years, they depend on
electricity for their essential daily bread, and they intended to
democratically air their pains through public protest. Instead they
were arrested from their homes, inside their rooms, humiliated,
beaten without mercy, and were subsequently arrested. These
commoners were still inside their room.
What an injustice and gross human rights violation under the
watch of a SAN?
What did Eyitayo Jegede know about Ore town? Has he ever
visited Ore? Has he ever advised Mimiko on the need to build
better roads in Ore/Odigbo given its strategic location and as a
strategy for wooing investors?
Did he ever honestly call Mimiko on the need to invest on capital
projects that are opportunistic to creating new jobs, and
simultaneously become added revenues for Ondo State?
What is Eyitayo Jegede's ideas about Olokola, Oluwa Glass,
Bitumen in Agbabu, Araromi Rubber Estate? How many times has
he discussed them in the past? What are his conversations with
Mimiko on these capital projects that were neglected in the last
seven and a half years?
What are his impacts on the need to pay our ever hard-working
civil servants who still have up to 5 months unpaid salaries with
Mimiko?
We should bear our minds that, Governor Olusegun Mimiko,
collected our state Federal Allocations, NDDC Allocations and
other internally generated revenues including all royalties during
former President Goodluck Jonathan when the prices of crude oil
quadrupled in world market.
He absolutely, have no reason not to pay state employees up to
date. But, he refused to pay these poor workers whose salaries
are not enough to support themselves and families in the first
place.
Eyitayo Jegede, the Chief Law Officer of Ondo State kept mute as
a Mimiko continue to unleash this suffering, poverty and hardship
on innocent people.
No single comments from him so far. To me, it is a sign that he
doesn't care about the people.
My beloved people of Ondo State, these are fundamental
questions that should bother us as a people. They are the
reasons that I maintained that Eyitayo Jegede is a bad choice.
They are the reasons why we should never allow Mimiko to
impose him on us
Eyitayo Jegede in my candid opinion is only coming to fulfill to
two purposes.
First, Governor Olusegun Mimiko, knows the gravity and the
consequences of the financial crimes and criminality he
committed against Ondo State and its people. So, purposely
hand picked Jegede, as a legal practitioner who could cover-up
his financial misdeeds and his impunity after leaving office in
2016.
He decided to pick Jegede who is never a politician but the same
central senatorial district with him.
Lastly, dig deeper, you will discover that all the candidates that
Governor Olusegun Mimiko sponsored to represent our dear
State, within the State and Federal Levels, failed in their
constitutional responsibilities to their various constituencies.
None of them initiated any youth or other community based
program to develop or to alleviate poverty and suffering that has
ravaged their respective constituencies. It has been all about
themselves, their families and their political godfather - Mimiko.
My people of Ondo State, Eyitayo Jegede is coming as cover for
Mimiko embezzlement, inflated contracts and his reckless
government activities.
The worst is, when they complete their tenures, they are trying to
fulfill a recycle culture of their likes (failed politicians) into new
offices using Eyitayo Jegede's influence as the state Governor.
My people social smartness is the key – we must be all-out
smart to decide who we want as our Governor. We must put an
end to this satanic calculations. We must rebuke them. We must
say no to their activities!
Ondo State, we are the sun shine and we deserve better. Our
SUN must continue to shine.
Trust me we can and we'll succeed if we come together. DON DOKUN SEUN |
