Dont mind this "thief" governor and his predecessor. I am a kwaran living in ilorin and the proclaimed '2000 jobs' is just an empowerment of 2 crates of coke, 1 hair dryer without financial support etc and these are even devoted to their political sycophants in pdp and saraki allies. Can he give this enpowerment as employment to his biological son who is an Accounting or Engineering Graduate even if he has one. What'll take him 365days to accomplish with less worth had already been done far better in 100days in Osun, Dont let them fool you because his 20000 is a political promise just to get encomium from the public. May God save 9ja. Dont mind this "thief" governor and his predecessor.
