Hahha I get your point.

For any society to be developed and safe, Fulani herdsmen need to be restricted to a concentration camp. I don't know if those people are even humans.

Take the Fulanis and their almajiris out of the South and we've got a developing region.

Katsumoto:


Agitating for regionalism online won't do much good. The relationship between representatives (senate, house) and constituents is broken in Nigeria for many reasons. If people start to pressure their reps to push for Regionalism, then discussions can start. This is why I posited earlier that the issue is mainly leadership. Can the current Yoruba leadership not see these issues or is it that they don't care?



It would be unfair to introduce tax on bad roads. To tax roads, the government must first deliver good roads.

DeLaRue:

In Ondo State, there is no name in Nigeria or Nigeria's history that comes close to Awolowo

And it is all because of the achievements of Awo's Western Region Government.

People here will happily go back to regionalism. Mimiko cannot dictate otherwise.

oduastates:


Mimiko, tinubu, Obasanjo and all are inconsequential in the politics of Ondo state.
Once mimiko is done, he becomes as relevant as the previous governor he replaced.

modath:


Ibebe, are you talking about utopia or a STATE in NIGERIA ??

Fashola deported Non Yoruba layabouts & his YORUBA kith & kin used it as cheap political tool against him..

Just pause for a moment to think of Ogun state University lmposing a "non indigene" levy on an ondo statr indigenious student, IT CAN'T EVER END WELL.

Shymm3x:


With the recurrent expenditure that's already running these states into the ground - how are you going to finance state policing?

PrincessJaneDoe:


The federal government currently has a budget allocated to defence and security. A portion of this goes into the police force and I would not expect this to stop simply because it is now managed at state level.

IyaIode:

Lagos chose to fight for special allocation over regionalism. Ondo didn't want to lose its own

DeLaRue:



I dont see how State Policing can work effectively in the current failed arrangement. For it to work, it requires a degree of policitical and systemic maturity which are totally absent right now.


If someone commits a crime in Lagos and flees to his State in the East. Do you genuinely believe the State police authority in the other State will help with investigation and repartriation of the alleged offender in th current atmosphere of tribal suspicions and mistrust? I dont think so.





Besides, I just don't see the introduction of State police as an immediate necessity to fixing this country.

Firefire:


You dey mind our people, the elders warned against this unholy alliance and misleading, won ni enu awon agba un run.

Time will tell...

No name in Western Nigeria you mean? Cause nobody knows who Tf Awolowo is in other parts of Nigeria.

Really, lemme ask my igbo brothers in the east.

Many Igbos benefited from Awo's free education.

Qelvin:

and far more accomplished Igbo scholars benefited from the East so what's your point?

superstar1:


A lot of those clowns were crossing from Onitsha into Asaba on a daily basis, to take benefit of the free education for them to go to school.

IlekeHD:


Now that's false. Many of your people went to Unis in the SW and benefitted from the US/UK. Even Chinuah Achebe went to UI.


My last response. I will not taint this thread.

IlekeHD:


One can truly say Awo's free education civilized the igbo nation.

During the last Governorship election 2 years ago, both Mimiko and the Akeredolu were throwing spats at each other about which of them is the true touch bearer of Awo. And Mimiko's campaign posters often had Awo's photo in the background.

The question is why are parties in Ondo State still fighting to claim Awo's discipleship almost 50 years after Awo's Regional Government.

Answer: the current system has failed beyond reprieve.

PrincessJaneDoe:

The transition from national policing to state policing would be a well planned and gradual process if it were to ever happen.

The federal government currently has a budget allocated to defence and security. A portion of this goes into the police force and I would not expect this to stop simply because it is now managed at state level.

Even in Ibadan.

The Managing Broker from Centurion Realty and Estates.Mr. Ola Sanni, has emerged Realtor of the Year” at the 5th Annual Awards Gala hosted by the United States (U.S) Congressman, Danny Davis.

The ceremony was put together by the seventh Congressional District’s Multi Ethnic Advisory Task Force (MEATF) at The Meadows Club in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, Chicago, U.S.

According to Dr. Tapas Dasgupta of The Meadows Club, the “Relator of the Year Award” is bestowed on an individual who has not only excelled in his field, but has also made a difference in people’s lives.

“The Annual Gala showcases our community heroes and reinforces that the various ethnic communities play a significant and integral role in the progress of our society,” Dasgupta said.

MEATF was established in 2010 as a platform to acknowledge and appreciate leaders who are giving back in their respective communities.

Sanni, who entered the American real estate industry in 1994 after his university education at Truman College and University of Illinois at Chicago, in July 1995, won the “Top Listing Award” and ranked among the top sales agents out of 750 sales associates. In April 1997, he broke into the million rank and earned US$1 million month certificate as part of Mattz Group.

Sanni, who hopes to return to his home state, Lagos, to play a part in the socio economic development of the place, however said “America is blessed with tons of talents and I believe I can better utilise all my trainings and expertise to help my people. The problem with Nigeria is not corruption but leadership. If you eradicate corruption without good leaders, you are just scratching the surface. My generation has what it takes to move Nigeria to the next level,” he said.
