cachal: Why are people angry when something is done to assist religion in this country? both Christians and Muslims are guilty of this..what people are angry at is is that religion and politics are two different things the two shouldn't mix together....... Just like medicine and religion |

laplace19: Nice one by the government..... This is a better question to ask. I hope the ring tone is not automatically made to sing Amosun for president. If it does help the pilgrims, it is a very welcome development. It probably is going to help their track down during the hajj with them having unique phone numbers and speed dials. |

deols: OMG!no be only customer care na after sales service. A state that could n't pay common 5000 state allowance defending that they are illiquid and in a deficit budget run could afford to buy phone to those going to mecca and you are here defending this. Smh for your ideology. |

taiyesoul: You don’t understand my pain!!! Ogun state governor said he couldn't pay Corpers serving in his school (state schools) because there is no money. The federal government pays 19800, but the state or private company in which the corpers where posted are suppose to supplement FG stipend. So my annoyance is that Ajimobi has money to splash on pilgrimage but not on corpers working for him in his school/LG! Imagine FG saying there is no money for ASUU, then splashing money on phones and pilgrimage. If you were one of those who castigated FG for buying gold-plated-Iphones (even when it was false), I see no reason why you should justify what Ogun state government did - that's hypocrisy! Note: I'm talking about corpers working for Ogun state government, i.e our earned allowance 1 Like |

Which kind of public and useless wastage is this?! If an investigation should be carried out, we'll find out that the whole entire phone giving was a scam! Ogun state people should protest against this religious scam! People are suffering and schools are being shut down, still, some useless state elements went ahead to be giving out mobile phones to Hajj pilgrims. The people that initiated this idea shall never have peace. B*stards!!! |

why will the moderators hide my post ? I repeat , i am waiting for the ACN lapdog rat to come and defend this . I finished my NYSC two month ago and could you imagine corpers were asked to signed an undertaking that they will not receive their state allowance at the end of their service due to the fact that ogun state governor is broke and currently operating on deficit budget system but they can afford to buy phone to those going to mecca ? I have to depend on my 19.8k . I am ready to attack and banish any ACN e-warrior here. Angry 1 Like |

The phone is most probably bought from the money paid by the pilgrims. People from other state might prefer Ogun from next year, helping the government make more money. If it helps the welfare of the Pilgrims, it is a Good development. Let other states take note. |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by NOLONGTIN1(m): 10:59am On Sep 20, 2013 |
deols: OMG! Mrs Goggle, Pls give me a Realiable link to justify ur explanation. @bolded, this is the kind of attitude I hate.... You're looking for a fight to derail this conversation but I won't give you that satisfaction! We should focus @topic, is it right or wrong? If GEJ did that after claiming there is no money for ASUU members how would you react? If you feel the state government acted right, No P. But you should remember it's 'good customer service' if FG decides tomorrow to buy gold-plated-cars for politicians/individuals |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by deols(f): 11:18am On Sep 20, 2013 |
NO LONG TIN: You would need to prove that, that is equally customer service. Did people pay for their hajj? Yes. Do governments provide certain things like housing, tent space at arafah, ankara for easy recognition? yes. The phone seems to be one of such things as above aimed at making hajj easy. These people probably already have phones, maybe better ones but may need this for other genuine reasons. and don't forget that the pilgrims are Ogun state people who deserve good welfare packages from their government at any time of need. |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by miqos02(m): 11:41am On Sep 20, 2013 |
here we go again, its absolutely unreasonable of the state government to buy phones( no matter the cost) for people who have paid hundreds of thousands for the hajj. PROGRESSIVES INDEED.... |

deols: What kind of Mod are you? Hw is @luvola's post not relevant to this thread? It is so on point! That is what this thread is about..... You could help move this to NYSC section incase it's in the wrong place. I purposely put it in Muslim section to avoid a religious e-war. Anyway, as the Originator of this thread I hereby declare luvola's post relevant and therefore forbid you from hiding it! |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by Tats(m): 11:43am On Sep 20, 2013 |
Complete waste of public funds. Someone has created a useless need somewhere and another one has been given the contract to buy those phones. Do they not all already have one or more phones and can simply switch sims when they get to Saudi? |

Hmmmm Ahhhh ooooo! Someone is looking for my trouble ooo I put a post supporting luvola's post, but the mod keeps hiding it even when I dint break any rule. I'm ready to go to the 'court of Seun' to prove I didn't break any rule. But if that said person hides my post again(I suspect deols) I will Modify the topic to contain my post..... You can't intimidate me!!! Be warned! |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by naptu2: 12:03pm On Sep 20, 2013 |
the journalist used the phone angle to draw attention to the story, but most of the details in the story are about other things, so here's what I'd like to know. 1) Why did the government buy phones for them? 2) Where did the funds come from? |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by NOLONGTIN1(m): 12:11pm On Sep 20, 2013 |
naptu2: Goodluck Jonathan to lead christians on pilgrimage. You miss the point, no one is against anyone going on pilgrimage, but it's painful when a government claims no money and then buys phone + sponsor pilgrims instead of paying the people that worked for said government. |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by Theblessed(f): 12:16pm On Sep 20, 2013 |
[b][size=16pt]It is well to support the Moslem Community of this State in their need to attend Hajj in Saudi Arabia. But I ask where in the list of priority needs of this State, is this gesture?? May I ask, what about other Religious groups of this State, have their own needs be met or haven't they got needs of their own?? You see, this kind of unfairness and injustice naturally can, provoke discord between citizens and that can lead to a lot of troubles - however, when a State government becomes a stirrer of such troubles, it worries me...! Imagine, the ignorant governor overtly displayed favoritism/discrimination among members of his own State, in the name of 'Charity' when it can invest the fund in a more 'inclusive Charitable Venture' that would benefit all and all rather than, a few Moslems - how could this act be right and does this governor have consciences at all?? I assume he is a religious man but intelligence suggests one should keep their Faith/beliefs aside from Politics instead, we get the opposite as people abuse their positions of authority in this Country, our God will avenge it![/size][/b] |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by lafuria1(m): 12:17pm On Sep 20, 2013 |
Most people angry are avoiding the obvious answer which is the people going for hajj paid for it. My aunt in Kaduna payed 650,000 naira for what they call medium chair, big chair is about 750k. The money covers for air ticket, housing and state uniforms and allowance only. Allowance in the sense that they return an amount to you for shopping etc My believe is ogun state decided to include phones because of how people do get loss finding their way around mecca. NIGERIA MUSLIMS GOING TO HAJJ DON'T GO FOR FREE. |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by naptu2: 12:17pm On Sep 20, 2013 |
NO LONG TIN: You miss my point (see my second post above). I was referring to people who are insinuating that muslims are "archaic" because they go on pilgrimage and those who say "what if GEJ does the same". I wasn't referring to the purchase of phones. Now, read my 2nd post again. |
