Yoruba people of the South-West will assess President Goodluck Jonathan. not by what he is promising to do for them, but what they have already experienced of him in the last six years. “That experience is the most painfully degrading that the Yoruba nation has ever had in the last half century. President Jonathan cannot, therefore, expect to be rewarded for this crime against the Yoruba people”. This was the sentiment expressed by the All Progressives Congress in Osun State in a statement by the party’s Directorate of Publicity, Research and Strategy in Osogbo at the weekend. “The sheer neglect of the Yoruba people by Jonathan in the scheme of things was a display of sordid ingratitude and contempt for a people who did the most to help him become President “, the party said. “If in the last six years alone, Goodluck Jonathan has down-graded the Yoruba from the first three positions to below the 15th in Nigeria, either in political or civil service structure, and, in particular, in Nigeria’s ratings of expertise and valued contributions to the country’s development, then he does not deserve, and will not get the Yoruba vote this time around. “All his promises to the Yoruba people are empty and deceitful. Our people not only know it, they feel it and they will act appropriately on March 28, 2015”. The party’s spokesman in Osun, Barr. Kunle Oyatomi, who signed the statement, described, as “sadistic” , the treatment meted to the Yoruba people by Jonathan’s administration, who, having downgraded them to below the 15th position in Nigeria, “also went ahead to starve virtually all Yoruba states controlled by the APC of their legitimate and constitutional funding in order to humiliate the people and stifle development in their area”. Oyatomi continued: “For such a President to now crawl about in Yorubaland, seeking their votes to continue in office is nothing short of insulting the intelligence of the Yoruba people. That is aggravated insolence. “Jonathan will pay a price equal in magnitude to his deliberate crime against the Yoruba nation; for nobody pokes a dirty finger in the eyes of the Yoruba people and gets away with it. Jonathan will get the red card in Yorubaland, and he will fall. “The party said that since Jonathan became comfortable in his position as President – largely through the efforts of Yoruba intellectuals and political leadership – the President has been so negatively disposed to Yoruba that his Federal Government did practically nothing of significance to encourage the sympathy of the Yoruba nation. “It is therefore a wasted effort for the President to be frantically seeking the support of Yoruba traditional leaders who already know how bitter their people are against Jonathan,’ the APC said, adding that ‘Yoruba people can see, feel and taste the deceit in President Jonathan’s promises. They cannot trust him after the humiliating treatment of the last six years of Jonathan’s Presidency”. -

Tell Rauf to pay Osun workers

Hmm, no be small thing o. In Tuface's voice. So, thou shall not bite the fingers that fed him. When the late president Musa Yar'adua was declared incapacitated, the westerners in the person of Prof. Wole Soyinka, Pa Tunji Braithwath, Pastor Tunde Bakare and so on staged peaceful protest telling Yar'adua's cabal to declare GEJ as the acting president. Is this how to pay back?
