Frivolities On Laycon Is A Sheer Misplaced Priority- NANS Ogun by Ganiz(m): 2:21pm On Oct 07, 2020
NANS OGUN JCC CHIDES GOV. DAPO SAYS FRIVOLITIES ON LAYCON IS A SHEER MISPLACED PRIORITY.

It is the height of irresponsibility and recklessness to read that Governor Dapo Abiodun paid host to the winner of BBNaija2020 and even went as far as splashing taxpayers money on him based on the fact that he emerged winner of the recently concluded BBNaija.

As an association, we cannot imagine how a State Governor during this post-Covid19 era spend #5m cash, a 3-bedroom bungalow on a frivolous assignment such as Youth Ambassador. Isn't this some sort of duplication which we have been complaining of? Isn't it correct to ask the Governor the essence of the office of SA Youths? Isn't it correct to ask the Governor what informed the appointment? Isn't it correct to ask the Governor the job description?

We cannot fold our hands and watch the Governor squander taxpayers money on an individual basically for winning Big Brother Naija when there are many things expected of this same government to do to boost the economy and improve the standard of living of his electorates during this period of economic recession which will have more impact on the people, most especially when the poor man on the street is clamouring for palliatives, undergraduates are clamouring for waiver of house rent, some of our students are seeking for loans to pay school fees, many parents have lost their Jobs, and many small scale business entrepreneurs have suffered losses as a result of increase on the prices of goods and services.


Few months ago, a team of students from the prestigious Tai Solarin University Of Education under the umbrella of ENACTUS, won a global competition that had 128 teams from about 120 countries as participants. This contest was not an immoral contest, but a competition based on ideas and intellect. They won it on a global standard. Unfortunately, these achievement did not draw the attention of any government official, our local television station, OGTV not to mention any national dailies could identify with their feat.

No top government official appreciated or encouraged their efforts neither were they recognized by the state government.

To the entire students of the Gateway State,it is a slap on our face that a BBNaija winner is being appreciated by the state government above our global pride, this is a state where the likes of Late Chief Olabisi Onabanjo, late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Prof. Wole Soyinka and others hailed from. If you can't identify with our sane achievements, we will fight for our standard place in the government.

We condemn totally, the appointment and the lavish spending which was exhibited by the Governor yesterday. The gesture which was extended to the winner of BBNaija signalled but a waste and misplacement of priorities most especially when it is coming from a Governor who has never for once deem it fit to extend such gesture to best graduating students in Ogun State most especially the TASUED student who won $20,000 grants few weeks back.

If we are to break it down conservatively, a 3-bedroom apartment will cost #25m. If such money had been judiciously used as expected of a responsible government, it would have refurbished at least 2 primary health centres in the State. But, the Governor decided to throw close to #30m into the drain all in the name of a frivolous appointment such as Youths Ambassador in a State where there are existing Youths Ambassadors which are the SA Youths and Commissioner of Youths.

It is based on the Aforementioned issue that we demand that the Governor *rescind* his action as a matter of urgency, we also demand that the Governor work towards providing palliatives for students across the state, and work towards fulfilling all the promises made to our students during his campaign, anything in the contrary shall be met with stiff resistance.

Dare to struggle.
Dare to win...

Signed:

Comr. Bamgbose Tomiwa
Chairman NANS OGUN STATE.

The NANS spokesperson isn't wrong for his opinion. A reality show star shouldn't be given such appointments on a platter of gold but for Laycon, I'll make an exception...

He seems like an intelligent dude who would merit that position normally and since this is Nigeria where you're not recognised until you make it on your own, I say carry go to Laycon!

It's his destiny. cool

So a Rapper/Musician with almost a million views on just a song on YouTube, millions of streams accross all streaming platform including iTunes doesn't have a Career or Talent

Please define Talent and Career for us, cos it seem am lost here

Ini Edo and Mercy Johnson , read scripts to act fictional 2hrs movies with revealing semi nude roles they got ambassadorship in Akwa Ibom State and Kogi State, 9ice sang about weed , women, he got ambassadorship in Oyo State

Laycon stayed in front of a camera for 71 days, performed all mind tasking presentation daily, struggled to make a music video even as a jobless graduate, refused to fight anyone during his stay in the house and he isn't qualified to be an ambassador of Youth in Ogun

Kudos to NANS ogun branch. What exactly are the youths supposed to learn from laycon?? Is it how to lustfully romance a girl in the guise of dancing with her or how to keep quiet when you are being confronted by a drunkard?? The governor says he represented the state well, I'm still wondering how.

Why was he not recognized then when he graduated from unilag?? Why wait till he emerged winner of a show that glorifies immorality?? Footballers and musicians are making us proud on the world stage!! At least something good is coming out of Nigeria through them...the world still has some respect for Nigeria because of them... How is laycon winning BBNaija making us proud on the global stage??

firstly, he was among the best graduating students and NOT the overall BGS.
secondly, what form of education does the reality show pass across to the common youth out there.
a lot of commoners in Ogun are suffering from food and shelter on a daily basis and their governor is busy squandering money upandan.

If you watch the show and you can't learn from relationship issues, patience when confronted with violent situation, good morals and manners,... Then I am afraid you can never learn anything again in life

This is a social experiment that makes you watch humans on camera same way God's and Angels watch you, you see behaviours characters and life from a far lens


And to give you a straight forward answer , Miracle of season 4 thought me through his conversation many things about Piloting, Geography and weather, one I won't forget is when he explained heat in vacuum or space, vs heat on earth's biosphere/ atmosphere, and reason it gets cooler at higher altitudes and hot on the ground , he explained reason for planes white colour
