Prof Corruption: Nobody takes this type of debate seriously in Nigeria. It's just a media hype. The election is too close to call between ACN and LP. The only party that does not have any chance is PDP! The ACN political guns have smartly framed this campaign as a battle between political parties, not individuals. Fortunately for them, that's the general perception out there. So murdering adjective or killing verbs neither adds to nor subtracts from the overall analysis.

While ACN is very strong in Ondo's North, Labour is the party to beat in Central while PDP has the South in his kitty. Ondo Central has the highest population of voters. Both LP and PDP have their respective running mates from the North while ACN's Akintelure is from the South. The thinking in ACN quarters is clearing the North, sharing the central and banking on negative perception of PDP in the south to win some votes. While PDP can hold some Local governments in the south, it's chances of winning any outside the district is almost zero due to negative perception. Both ACN and LP can spring surprises beyond their strongholds. The major impediment to Mimiko's chances is poor showing of his administration beyond the central senatorial district.

If ACN focuses a lot of resources on the North (holding their stronghold) and the south (exploiting PDP's negative perception and LP's administration lack of developmental projects in the region), LP chances become shaky. It's just too close to call.

Bravo!!! What a good political Analyst.... I love dis

petitebussy: Aketi says we have just one singular project (Mother and Child) in Akure and promises to build Hospitals for Father mother and Child.How does that make sense?He doesn't seem to know that the mother and child hospital is specially created to tackle infant and maternal death which was in highest form before mimiko's government took over power,it is different from the State Hospital which is set to treat different kinds of ailments.Oke of all people says he is going to decentralize the Mother and Child in Akure,but one thing this two candidates fail to know is that this mother and child is a referral centre where people come from all parts of the country and it is in Akure so it could be easily accessible.There is no way the olodo of ondo (Aketi) is ever going to be our Governor!

Why do u people always open ur dirty mouth without first pause to think b4 talking or writing. Dat man u call olodo has achieved more in life than wat anybody in ur generation can reach. U still have a chance to redeem urself and not invoke curse(s) on ur family. A word is enuff for d wise. Don't allow d meagre sum Mimiko gives u guys to jeopardize ur future. Be wise.

Read ur foolish defence abt the mother and Child project.. It is to stop infant and maternal death. So u mean ppe 4rm Owo, Akungba, ikare, ondo, ikale will travel down to Akure just to give birth?. .. I think it is better u think b4 talking... Such projects ought to av been decentralised cos it is nt only in Akure pregnant women live neither is it sensible to encourage pple 4rm other area to Akure to deliver babes... Pls be rational

Is τhe ACN guy related Ť☺ Abdusalami Abubakar?

Τhe PDP guy is an Orator

Basd on d debate, dis is my judgement:
ACN =40%
LP =70%
PDP= 70%.

Please, let who the cap fits wear it. Iroko Carry go jo. Oppositions should forget this election and wait till after your 2nd term when Ondo state would have been fully transforme.

Without supportin any pol party, i prefer the ACN man, coz he z cul, though he haz less words 2 butress his point.. The pdp man tried nd he knws in nd out of d state economy bt he blabs alot<OVERCONFIDENCE> ... Lastly Mimiko disappointed the whole house 2day bcoz he waz tryin 2 disgrace his counterpart until The ACN man gave him a big shock after much silence... 2ndly mimiko was chewing sweet whch is a bad manner...3rdly he did nt defend his 3 1/2 yrs work wit full explanation... THOUGH THE 3 OF THEM ARE POLITICAL CRIMINALS

torhuke:
I overhead him mister.. Yr own ears must be bloked wt spider webz..

He actually said 'non existent'. I think that was d part U didn't hear well.

vanessa_ra: God will deliver the people of Ondo state from Mimiko and his corrupt family members, From the bus stops that should not be more than #2,000,000 which they inflated the contract some for is Family.
I am from Ondo state and I regularly go home to see my family, I am surprise at the level of retrogression. His jobless in law who was sack from prudent bank for fraud has a dry cleaning business that they use for siphoning our money, #1,000,000 for dry cleaning...*beg wetin them they dry clean.

They are using our money to build shopping Mall"Larboundy" even my parents that retired after 35yrs of meritorious service can boast of such.

I saw the debate and I am rooting for ACN, enough of a government that lacks focus.

Whats your grouse? That your parents could not use 1 million naira to dry clean or could not own a dry cleaning business.
Were they not pay their pension and gratuity?

Don Lala: Enough of all dse deceits and lies. D trio are birds of d same feathers and they surely flock 2gether. But like they say d devil u know is better than d angel u haven't seen, but in dis case Mimiko as we have seen is a devil we will want to do away with. Give that guy another term will mean Ondo state might go into oblivion. D guy has oratory prowess and a master propagandist. The question is should peoples destiny be tied to one mans ability to talk? NO. Mimiko has bled dat state to death, its not enuff to defend or castigate anybody here but d truth needs to be told. D younger brother to d mimiko's wife built an underground house on top of a rock valued at N130m, a boy dat let skool 3 years ago and there is abject poverty and hunger in Ondo state. Wat picture does dis paint. Opportunity u may say but do u think in an ideal situation dis should suffice? A Govt dat did not commission a single road project in almost 4 years? Everything ongoing. We should be careful wat we say for posterity sake. Let another Govt come in and make another set of millionnaire families instead of one nucleus family conering d wealth of d people and hundreds of millions to buy awards. Before u react think so u don't sign ur death warrant. Alora

we d indigene of the state sees d roads, if u cant see. What's d big deal abt commissioning a road project, when its nt a Jebba Bridge

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, votes will be shared like this :

Labour Party ---- 55% of total votes

ACN ------------- 30 % of total votes

PDP ------------- 15 % of total votes.

And see wht u av said wt ur own mouth dat is as clean as Akeredoluz asshole... Wht piss me off is even ur alusion to mimiko givin money to people postin on nairaland. Itz like water ran thru yr nostrilz to fill yr empty brain and daz y U think evry1 is a sell out like yr father. The earlier u realise dt politicz akeredolu will nt win even in owo, the beta 4 yr sinking family ship.. OnyeOra.

Empericle Analysis: We hav 18 LGA's in Ondo state. Made up of 6 LGA's per Senitorial district. Akeredolu(North); Mimiko(Central); Oke(South).
In my own view, i thnk dis is hw d result wl be:
Mimiko no doubt wl win d whol Central & go ahead to win four(4) frm d North, livn d remainin two(2) for Akeredolu. He wl as wel win @ least three(3) LG frm d South, leavin d remainin three(3) for Oke. In summary, de wl win in d followin no of LG:
ACN- 2
LP -13
PDP- 3
Like me if u blv in dis, quote me if otherwise!

Let me add this: if your analysis is by any stretch near reality, LP will not be buying voters' card (By the way both ACN and LP are guilty of this)

U sure av solved d political mathematicz.. 1000 likez...

I believe the election is roughly within this region of speculation:

LP- 41%
ACN-39%
PDP- 20%

To win an election, you need the highest total votes cast and 25% of votes in 2/3 of local government areas (12 out of 18).
Strategically, to win an election, you need to carry the big voting towns and merely have a spread in remaining councils.

My last statement is enough to explain why ACN is buying up voters card in Akure and LP amassing same in Owo.

Prof Corruption:

I don't think so!

Watch and see..

torhuke:
Watch and see..

Ok Sir!

Tinubu to Akeredolu: Am really disappointed in you, did you think politics is a child play? Can't you see you fellow SAN BRF in Lagos state!!! Before I open this my closed eyes I want your grey bears and teddy shaved off.
Agagu to Olusola Oke:you tried but you are running away from my shadow. I heard that Mimiko boy calling me your principal three times but on those three occasions you dissociated your self from me. Never mind I pardon you.
God to Mimiko: this is my begotten son in whom am trusting Ondo State to for another 4 years. Mimiko 2nd term no shaking

.

...

Rotimi Akeredolu should simply go and demand for a refund from INEC The ACN candidate based on today's debate and his inability to articulate his own policy. Akeredolu is simply not prepared for governance! He was roundly reduced to play the role of an onlooker by Segun Mimiko of Labour party and Sola Oke of PDP in tonight's debate

,,

so far so good, Oke is a good orator, Mimiko is bold enough to defend his goverment and Aketi has told us he has no idea about government.
6 years of PDP what is Oke input then?
In 35 years of Aketis achievements in life what has he done for Ondo state personally? please go and contest in Ibadan you home. we do not know you in Ondo.
In the last 3.5 years, we can see the following physically:
Mother and Child,
Neighborhood Markets,
Diagnostic center,
Mega Schools,
Water Fountain,
Round about,
Uninterrupted Street Light,
21st century Motor Park,
Ultra Modern Auto Malt,
Road Signs,
Pedestal Ways,
Water Channelization,
Democracy Park,
Bus Stops,
Student Free Shuttles,
Women Empowerment Scheme,
Farm Settlement,
mare festival,
Ongoing Road Construction,
Please, if you are lover of good things and your eyes is not deceiving you add to these list
of what you have truly seen in ONDO STATE IN THE LAST 3.5 years.
I rest my Case.
IROKO, 2013 SURE.
Thanks

There is nothing on your list that merits being called an achievement. Road Signs? Water Fountain? Uninterrupted street light even during the day? or what? It's a worthless list that highlights misdirected policies of Mimiko administration. Ondo has gone beyond these cosmetics. An achievement list will look like this:

1. Olokola Free Trade Zone near completion
2. Seaport being developed in Igbokoda
3. Ondo Refinery at advanced state of completion
4. Efforts towards exploration and exploitation of Bitumen
5. Cocoa Processing Industries being developed in Idanre.
6. Weak links in civil service sacked (Modernisation, administering of competency tests and retraining of civil servants)
7. Plus other cosmetics-Road construction, Housing projects, Education etc

Ondo needs jobs to put unemployed graduates at work and increase the revenue base of the state. Ondo collects 13% derivation, has huge IGR relative to other SW states (except Lagos) and has many untapped goldmine that can transform the state. Ajasin ruled the entire Ondo and Ekiti in 1979-1983 and established about eight industries-Oluwa Glass, Okitipupa Oilpalm etc with a less revenue base. Borrowing huge money to build water fountain all over Akure is nothing but maladministration. If these are the so called projects, Mimiko does not deserve to complete this term not to talk of second term.
