Akure—THE embattled 73-year-old deputy governor of Ondo state Alhaji Ali Olanusi who was impeached last week has been appointed as a member of the Board of Trustees, BoT, of the All Progressive Congress, APC.

This was contained in a letter signed by the secretary of the Party’s National Executive Committee, NEC, Hon. Mai Bala Buni.
Buni said Olanusi’s appointment as a BoT member took effect from July 4, last year.
The impeached deputy governor defected to the APC barely 24 hours to the last March 28 Presidential and National Assembly elections.
Alhaji Olanusi was later impeached following allegations of gross misconduct by the House of Assembly.
He has since been replaced by the former Agriculture Commissioner, Alhaji Lasisi Oluboyo.
The appointment of the former deputy governor looks like compensation for his ordeal after his defection from the PDP.
However, the new BoT member has vowed to challenge the impeachment process in law court with his new position.
His appointment as a member of the party’s highest decision making body would last for four years.
The appointment letter said that within the four-year tenure, the former Deputy Governor would work with other members of BoT to develop the party.
It advised him to liaise with other members of the board to work for the progress, unity and development of the party.
Olanusi the letter stressed would work within the ambit of the constitution of the APC and take decisions objectively on behalf of the party in the interest and growth of the members.

@The age of 73? I weep for my dear country Nigeria. Where do we youths stand? Why won't youths pedddle drugs when they'v been relegated to the background? Government appointments and positions no longer based on competence or merit but on compensation and satisfaction of interests!

My brother, leave them alone.
The dont't have time for decent arguement with a view to learning from it.
Anybody whose view does not agree with their warped mind gets insulted.
Were they not there when their HERO appoints an 80 years old to head NPA?
But to them GMB is senile at 72?
Let them continue to bother themselves with somebody's 'massive cleavage'; 'must see picture' on NairaLand.

As you lay your bed, so you lie on it.

Which youth? with the kinds of posts I read from most Nigerian youth on nairaland, it is evident that the youth stands nowhere and no chance. Let them continue to book spaces and hurl insults and abuses on nairaland.

The youth may have a shot at being involved in nigerian politics when they stop bothering themselves about the massive clivage of Halima Abubakar and Tonto Dike's g-strings.
They have to start with making inteligent statements, not 'GEJ my hero, Fayose my role model' kind of slogan that bothers on stupidity and insanity.
