Mr Aregbesola the President Governor of Osun State created 20,000 jobs in 100days. Now calculate how many days are in 10months?

-------------------------------------------------------

please with all due respect, dont post things like this. it doesnt make you look good. even lagos state with the kind of mney it gets from the FG and taxes cannot boast of creating 20, 000 jobs in 100days. that is the biggest lie you can ever say on this board. do you know what it takes to pay 20, 000 people? you obviously have no idea. please dont say things that make you look "silly" and please i dont mean it in an insulting way. All the governors are even struggling to pay the 18, 000 minimum wage and you are posting such a thing. haba my guy!

Kobojunkie:

So, that is your rebuttal? So it's OK for you to come in with your erratic and erroneous claims but when I make a statement and stand by it . . . rather than ask me to help you learn something you are probably unaware of . .  you instead try to ridicule my person to accomplish what exactly? 

Maybe next time, sell your fluff elsewhere!!! Or try make sure you are at least more accepting of the truth -- that way I won't need to correct your false claims in the way I had to there.

Like i said again . .Just take your nairaland medication and stay alive  . . . you are valuable to us even though you tend to be annoying.

Better points left behind.

People saying that the Osun State Government provided jobs for 20,000 people after 100days in office are big jokers. where Osun get that kin money from, have you ever being to Osun lately or do you guyz even know where it's location before posting hilarious arguments  . fashola will not even tell you he has provided jobs for 20,000 people . Na wao  for una.

jmaine:

For you to boldly and confidently insinuate that the Yar Adua sneaky Airport fiasco on the 24 of Febuary 2010 had Jonathan actively involved proves the height of your sheer callous stand. You say something useless, people try to correct you but instead you try to swirl only to throw some more dirt on yourself in public and you claim you want to school me . Some people just derive appalling orgazm just to win and back up a senseless  argument even to the detriment of themselves . 

jmaine:
Lady, am amazed by your antics to even argue that you are not living but drop dead even when conspicuously alive and kicking. Yes, only you can pull up such stunts and stand by it just to win. Like i said again . .Just take your nairaland medication and stay alive  . . . you are valuable to us even though you tend to be annoying.

[size=13pt]Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola in 100 days has created employment for 20,000 young and able youths through the OYES (Osun Youth Empowerment Scheme) programme this is a welcome development and this are one of the ways to strengthen the State's economy.[/size] Another major instrument is to encourage locally made goods, if the government of the state could create policies that could encourage the emergence of local industries which would produce locally made goods such as Adire(our native attire), Tye and dye, Mat weaving, Furniture making and so much more. The emergence of these industries will not only create jobs for the people of the state but will also be an avenue for the state to showcase its culture to the world as a whole.

If there was a swap
buhari contesting for presidency under PDP will most of buhari supporters vote for him
I answer yes. Because they will say the individual is different from the party. But ask them to apply same rule to GEJ they will say its totally different.

All they pinpoint as Buhari's 20 month achievement is his brutal, dictatorial, gangster like rulership they term WAI. No wonder his stupidity cost him his presidency, simply because he could rule except with Idiagbons presence.

and he tried twice and twice he failed and twice no one saw him(in southern  Nigeria) as messiah and twice no one stood up to fight for him politically or judicially but now he used the same principle he had applied to northern Nigeria i.e. religion by appointing a popular Bakare he is now Jesus christ re-incarnate.
Religious bigotry is the crux of the BB ticket and nothing less or more.

and has anyone of his supporters asked,
why is there no public figure past or present (activist/polician/critic/musician) coming out to openly declare support for him.
at least we know what soyinka thinks of him, what Fela sings of him, what Tinubu talks of him, what journalists know of him. Please mention credible people supporting him.
Its only on NL you see people wanting him simply because they dont want PDP but I say his period would usher in uncertainty and fear unrestricted.

I'm amazed at Nigerians for supporting ineptitude. (GEJ)
Let face it:
1.  When Alesiamegha was stealing Goodluck folded his hands and just watched? (impossible)
2.  What was his achievement as deputy governor? None
3.  He lied when he said he spoke to Yar'udua on numerous occasion when he was sick (we are all witness)
4.  His wife is as corrupt as any big corrupt person in Nigeria (remember 2 EFCC cases)
5.  No balls, remember how Turai caged him before and after he became acting president
6.  Remember how security officials took over Abuja airport.
7.  He was in-charge of the committee that looked after power generation during Yar'udua (as minister)
8.  Said MENDs are not terrorist
9.  Received Bode George with open hands
10. He said Babaginda is his mentor
11. OBJ is his Godfather
12. Tony Aneni is his Godfather
13. EFCC/ICPC is dead under his watch.
14. Halliburton/Siemens/Julius Berger scandal hasn't been giving priority
15. Hasn't done anything about the bomb blast all over the country
16. External reserve depleted under his watch
17. Excess crude oil account depleted under his watch
18. Agreed to a debate but chickened out in the last minute
19. Uduahan is a wanted man in England but GEJ make sure he won his re-election
20. Almost all known rouges in Nigeria today is a friend to GEJ
21. He said power problem will be a thing of the past in December 2010 (now shifted to 2015)
22. GEJ doesn't know how many percent of the budget has been implemented
23. Igbinedion is charged with corruption but GEJ right hand man is Igbinedion's deputy
24. He sent Orubebe to South Africa 6mths. to see orka before the independent bomb blast
25. Patricia Etteh/Farida Waziri given national award by Goodluck Jonathan
26. Called south west political leaders bunch of rascals
27. Junket around the globe with too many aids (no wonder our reserve is no more)
28. During Yar'adua we had 60 plus advisers and assistant now GEJ added about 57
29. He made his Senegalese tailor and his wife hair dresser personal assistant
30. Bribed those that voted for him during the primaries with $7,000 (multiplied by 2000 + people)
31. Refuse to bring those bad eggs that prevented him from becoming acting president
32. Yar'udua's signature was forged on the supplementary budget (nothing done till date)
33. Yar'udua's security vote was stollen during the saga ( nothing done till date)

Nigerians Please Think before you vote

PapaBrowne:

I have just read through this thread and noticed something quite interesting!!

Those in the GEJ camp on this thread appear much more intelligent and present their views better than those against him! They are less sentimental and are more optimistic in their outlook! Their discussions focus more on issues than on personalities. Interestingly also, their writing abilities far outclass those against him!
Most of them use logic to drive home their points.
On the other hand, those against him, most of them BB supporters use insults and derogatory terms to present their points!! Their analytical capacity is limited and they appear to have a hard time discussing issue-based items. Also they appear hasty and violence inclined in their arguments!

I'm not sure why this is and whether intelligence is a factor that affects choice of candidates, but if it is, then surely, BB supporters appear to be supporting him because they might have little capacity and a low intelligence quotient to enable them make accurate judgements devoid of sentiments!!
It might as well be that the BB supporters vexation is as a result of the rot that exists in the midst of immense potential,. but their inability to make logical arguments is making them appear very unintelligent.

These are just my observations. I no be teacher, I no dey mark WAEC!!
