Mohammed Fawehinmi,
eldest son of the late
foremost legal practitioner,
Gani Fawehimi, has
lambasted the governors of
Oyo, Ondo and Osun states
over their alleged failure to
develop the states.
He specifically demanded
the impeachment of the
governor of Oyo State,
Abiola Ajimobi, by the state
House of Assembly.
Mr. Fawehinmi stated this
on Thursday while
delivering a lecture at the
Obafemi Awolowo
University, Ile-Ife, Osun
State.
The lecture, entitled
“Youths Impact in Free and
Fair Elections,” which was
second in the series, was
organized in honour of the
legal practitioner, who died
in September 2009.
According to him, the three
south west states have
remained at the same level
of decadence because of
the refusal of the governors
to make any meaningful
impact since the governors
assumed office.
“Oyo State is a shadow of
herself from what it used
to be,” Mr. Fawehimi said.
“Everywhere is very bad
and it is something that is
unbecoming, I clamour for
impeachment of Oyo state
Governor Ajimobi”
“Since he is incapable he
should be impeached from
the government. The last
few years in Oyo has been
very bad. I passed through
the place and I was
unhappy.”
He also said there had
been no major
improvement in the State
of Osun under Governor Rauf
Aregbesola, “except that when I got to
a part of the state I saw a new statue;
everything looks unchanged, nothing
so new or no improvement.”
He also accused Governor Olusegun
Mimiko for alleged
“underperformance.”
Mr. Fawehinmi said but for the
efforts made by the students of the
university, his father would have died
without earning the title of Senior
Advocate of Nigeria.
According to him, it was the students
of the institution who awarded the
late lawyer the title “Senior Advocate
of the Masses,” that they now
conferred on him the prestigious title
of SAN.”
He said, “My father would have died
a man without the apex title and
would have being robbed of what he
deserves if not for the effort of OAU
Students.
“Nobody knows the role OAU students
played; it would have been miserably
painful for my family.”
Mr. Fawehinmi also accused OAU
management of falling below
standard and not paying attention to
areas of needs of the university.
He claimed that the institution had
lost its glory and could not boast of
the standards it was known for.
“I went to the hostels in your school
(OAU) and it is a shame. When I saw
the living conditions of students, it is
even dangerous for your health as
students. It is time to call the
attention of the Federal Government
to the sorry state of this school.”
The President of OAU Students Union,
Omotayo Akande, criticized the
administration of President
Muhammadu Buhari over its plan to
pay N5000 to each unemployed
Nigerian youth.
He said, “We have lots of decadence
in the education sector that needs
attention and all the president can
think of is investment of over one
trillion naira in paying young
unemployed graduates, does he mean
graduates are worth just N5000? He
is only compounding woes of
Nigerian youths.”
