Impotent FG at your service once again - illegal gas stations stopping a road project that would save hundreds of lifes a year. How about a month's warning to move all that is movable, after which they would all be gone in one massive display of "righteous" federal might. http://www.nigeriancompass.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2181:amosun-leads-squad-to-demolish-babalakins-n1-billion-plant&catid=54:nigeria-today |

Nigerian Compass and their shameful lies. I was priviledged to have some facts on this issue. 1. The Land on which the Project was illegally given to them by OGD without recourse to the laws on ground. The state was short changed in the land to the tune of 75% 2. Amosun personally led a team of state officials to the plant the very second week he was installed to handover a quit notice to them and told them he will also personally led a team to demolish it if they fail to move their things within the specified time. Anybody believing Nigerian Compass deserves a free slap on the face, the paper is the leader of Junks media houses in Africa. Just look at how they lied that it was Amosun that approve the project when in actuall fact it was done by the owner of Nigerian Compass OGD. Useles newspaper |

I disagree with you completely about this. Lagos-Ibadan road is a critical link to all SW states, particularly Ogun State. I was home a couple of months ago and could not believe my eyes at what that road has become. It is fast turning into a path in the bush in many places - sure it is still tarred, but with trailers and holes all along what should a smooth (less than 1 hour) ride into the heart of the SW it is downright shameful. That land has being lying fallow for ages without Ogun State putting it to use. We have to stop focusing on protecting our leaders and start thinking about what is right for us - ready to correct, protest and chew up, if it comes to that, any public official that stands in our way. Let's even suppose Amosun has a legitimate case, is this the best way to approach it. If I were him I would write Bi-Courtney and inform them of the cost of the land if they really want to use it, but will whole-heartedly support its use if they can't find an alternative as long as they are aware they might have to pay full costs at some future time. In reality that is really nonsensical for a critical project like this - Ogun State has no more land that can be used for a trailer park or market.? Is Bi-Courtney going to possess the land forever? What is the use of your phantom market and trailer park if nobody can get there? Are there no trailer parks already all along that road? Frankly, I think some powerful people are trying to stop this project - that is the bottom line. By the way I saw the same newspiece in the "The Nation" first, but ignored it. I had to read it when it showed up agaion on "The Compass".

In addition, because OGD approved it doesn't mean it is necessarily bad. We cannot solve our problems by painting everything and everybody in one color. Nobody is ever completely evil or completely good. |

i think multinational companies ought respect the land first, The man seems passionate about his state but he shouldn't direct the passion to unproductive violence, He has the right to stop the project if he wants. it's his state and the FG needs his people's land, the state governor should call a meeting first not go all out with guns, But good to know some politicians will be at war front |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by seanet02: 5:33am On Jul 26, 2011 |
Sir koruji i quite agree with you on the importance of the road project, but the fact remains that the laws of the land must be respected. Now look at this people that have been giving control of the road for over 2 years now trying to get land dubiously through OGD. i will personally appeal to Amosun to let them have the land if i were one of his advisers, we all know the end result of the road project. It is failure. Bicourtney have a track record of poor service anyway |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by koruji(m): 5:40am On Jul 26, 2011 |
That is what I would suggest. If Bi-Courtney is going to fail let them not use the fact that Ogun State is not willing to let them use a piece of land as the excuse. seanet02: Yes, he should be more civil and perhaps inform them of a potential lawsuit if they don't pay up, but this particular project is one where no SW governor should be seen standing in front of a war that would delay it any further. Passion is good, but Ogun State stands to gain more from this road than even Lagos. 9jaganja: |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by ektbear: 5:54am On Jul 26, 2011 |
I don't understand why Amosun's solution to everything is to demolish. Make Bi-Courtney pay whatever the market rate is for the land. If OGD gave them a discount, make them pay full price. Shouldn't that be enough? |

Until someone comes up with a system that limits the powers given to our leaders, we will forever go in circles! People should not just do whatever they like or think about simply because they re governors/ministers. . .there must be some facts that each decision is made to the benefit of governed!. . . what we' re seeing is simply a government who's out to discredit another government and he's prepared to spend his whole first term in doing so, after which they will come back to the people and tell em "4 years is too short"! |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by Nobody: 7:12am On Jul 26, 2011 |
And who would that someone be? You seem mighty capable of coming up with such a system. |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by Freshfish: 7:21am On Jul 26, 2011 |
Why Blame Amosun when Bi- Courtney is doing the same thing. Bi courtney has bullied owners of property along the expressway in lagos and they are not even talking about compensation. The ownership of land is vested in the state govt and Bi courtney should do the right thing by closing out with the State govt. Critics of Amosun , please note the remark that a stop work notice was issued and rather than Bi coutney to talk to the govt they brough the Minister to make noise as usual. There is a old right of way (those who have contravened) and a new right of way ( based on expansion) The new Right of way will cause so much pain in built up areas between Ojota and Berger in lagos and Ogun states I hope all works well for the generality of Nigerians |

Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by stormm: 7:49am On Jul 26, 2011 |
seanet02: God bless you. More importantly for me is the question Is Bi-Courtney doing the road as a social service or profit venture? Why subvert due process? Its sheer blackmail. That company is just not competent. MMA 2 is an eyesore when it rains. Just typical Babalakin. |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by YoursGEJ(m): 7:50am On Jul 26, 2011 |
This amosun sef. Is this the most important issue at hand? Is that land the only one that can serve as a trailer park in Ogun? Is majority of the road not in his state and is he contributing a dime to the project? I thought this man was sensible. Ever since he started his nagging and complaints, I knew the people of Ogun are in for another 4 years of standstill progress. The guy has lost track of his priorities. He's more concerned with undoing OGD at every cost, which is an exercise in futility. |

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely! Amosun is turning to an 'Area Boy' gradually. |

Come think of this statement; But, for the resistance put by the Chief Security Officer of the concessionaire, Colonel Adeola Olabiyi (rtd), and his team, the governor would have pulled down the multi-million naira structure. some editors can be so mischievous! |

ONLY A SICK PERSON WILL STOP THE CONSTRUCTION WORK ON LAGOS IBADAN EXPRESS. POLITICIZE THE ISSUE OR NOT. LAGOS IBADAN ROAD IS IN A TRAGGIC STATE. ALMOST LOST MY LIFE JUST THIS LAST WEEKEND. OGUN STATE SHOULD LEARN THAT THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO SHOW THEIR MIGHT. IF IN EXCHANGE OF GUN FIRE, HE LOST HIS LIFE, WHAT WOULD THE FAMILY BE SAYING. FOOLISH POWER DRUNK MAN. WHEN DOES THE GOVERNOR BECOME THE LEADER OF DEMOLISHING SQUAD. |

seanet02: Oga Seanet02, a governor is expected to be the father of all under his jurisdiction (locals and foreigners alike)!!! What is court of law's duty when the grand commander of a state is busy leading demolition square. Handling this issue legal would have generated more sympathy. |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by Gbawe: 9:16am On Jul 26, 2011 |
Gbenge 77: Thank you. It is sometimes annoying to read ignorant talk. Politicians use their media outlet to whip folks into a frenzy and everyone begins to talk without thinking. I read someone stating that Amosun is turning to an "area boy". .Shame we never read the same talk when OGD was doing everything thuggish and illegal under the Sun !!!! Amosun and Ajimobi , if you guys do not know, are engaged in a covert supremacy battle with OGD and Alao Akala. That is only possible in a Country with a heavily partisan FG that sees Party first before anything else. We all saw the PDP calling for Fashola's resignation over flooding yet not one word as per GEJ's numerous security failings. GEJ has already tacitly warned Governors not to "go after" their predecessors . This is another way of saying "I wont tolerate any witchhunt against outgoing PDP Governors who delivered for me ". Was it not GEJ who turned the other way when OGD carried out an illegal impeachment so he could get his hands on N100 billion? Now , imagine those type of dirty dealings x 100 and some of you will begin to appreciate the ridiculous scale of corruption , misrule and 'jeun-jeun arrangements'Amosun and Ajimobi have to try and checkmate before they can even begin the arduous task of governance. You guys are simply ignorant of Nigerian politics . It is not American or British politics and you are not dealing with 'gentlemen'. Amosun and Ajimobi cannot blink first if they wish to point out to the PDP, with all its might deployed mischievously always, that they wish to govern their State for the people. |

I don't know why people are surprised about the character of Amosun. I blame the Nigerian media for not shinning light properly on the character of this man. Amosun was a cultist when he was in Ojere i.e. Ogun State Polytechnic now Moshood Abiola Polytechnic. In the days preceding the 2007 governorship election in Ogun State in which Amosun contestd against OGD under the umbrella of ANPP, Amosun was shown on Gateway TV in the midst of youths raising machets and cutlasses and chanting "O n f'iku sere o, o n f'iku sere, OGD o n f'iku sere" meaning "he is toying with death, he is toying with death, OGD he is toying with death". The point I am making is that, this guy is not different from OGD in terms of malevolence and all. They are birds of like feathers only seperated by ambition. |
Re: Amosun Leads Squad To Demolish Babalakin’s N1 Billion Plant by dammytosh: 9:20am On Jul 26, 2011 |
Gbawe: YOU HAVE NO POINT. LEAVE PARTISAN POLITICS AND FACE REALITY. THE QUESTION IS ? 1. DID AMOSUN LEAD PEOPLE TO DEMOLISH A 1 BILLION STRUCTURE MEANT FOR THE REPAIR OF THE EXPRESS ROAD. THE ANSWER IS YES. CHECK TRIBUNE, THIS DAY and THE NATION. STOP ALL THIS PARTISAN RUBBISH AND FACE THE REALITY> THE GUY'S ACT IS SICK AND UNCALLED FOR. |
