The opposition will make a mountain out of this mote by saying Adeleke cancelled it because him and his deputy are Christians.

Unfortunately, Osun doesn't think that way.
Osun has more Muslims than Christians and willingly voted Christian/Christian tickets twice and defended their votes

A day free train ride for the masses won't make the state go into bankrupt. If you can't benefit as low as that from the government, what else can a citizen benefit?

Don't mind him.
It's unfortunate how people confidently display ignorance, misinforming unsuspecting folks

I don't even know where he got his data from.

Osun State is not even in the list of the top 10 poorest states in the country, by virtually all major indices. Even if you're to judge by Internally Generated Revenue, Osun makes more money than about 20 other states.

Osun state is not richer than Enugu state, judging by all parameters.

It can be agreeable that Osun fares better than Ebonyi and Abia.

So, I will you describe a state in your region where the governor dostributes N500 to pregnant women?

Giving a free ride is not different from a state governor Sharing kerosene all by himself.

What is the GDP of Enugu, what is the GDP of Osun?
Start from there.

Enugu that the poorest LG in Lagos is richer than the entire Enugu state.

Firstly, Osun isn't the poorest or almost poorest state in Nigeria.

Secondly, free train ride is the least any government can give to her citizens. How much is it? At most 5k. The report said it will convey hundreds of people, so, lets say 1k people max. That's just 5m.

5m is the least thing any government can give to her citizens during a festive period.

I know you're only pained that Muslims are getting something from the government. You and your fellow religious bigots on this Nairaland will wail from today till forever.

Let them pay, they will remember when they used to move their entire family for free.

This is one of the poorest state in southwest.
The government should put proper things in place for investors to come and invests in the state.
The governor can as well call on indigenous people of Osun State home and aboard to come and invest on the land of Osun State.

Well, looks like Ugwuanyi spent his 8years reversing whatever economic gains past administrations made in Enugu. I didn't even realise it was this bad until today.

But in terms of GDP, Abia State towers above Osun. But when considering IGR, Osun is richer than those three states you mentioned.

And whenever you're making economic comparative analysis, using Nigerian States as feeders, it's inappropriate to put Lagos in the mix. Lagos State economy is even bigger than the economies of about 50 African countries. I understand some people will be quick to attribute the feat to Tinubu, but it is instructive to note that Lagos had always been a commercial city right from the colonial years. And successive Federal Government administrations have continually fed the city with that much gusto.

Adeleke will perform better than his predecessors..

I will really like to visit BAT's village in Osun state, I want to verify something cool...

I was there over the weekend... I wish all nairalanders that look down on that beautiful town can visit there. If truly jagaban is from iragbiji, then it's a fine town grin

You people should stop brandishing this claim for God's sake!

Ekiti is the poorest state in the South West. Then there is Kwara. Osun falls in the center of that table.

Let this be the end of the free train ride era in Osun State. The state is not rich, and indigenes coming from Lagos have enough money to fund their own train rides.

How did you come to the conclusion? lol

Go to any property website and search for renting using a minimum of N1,000000. Using jiji, you will see enugu having 496 ads while osun has only 36 ads.

So 496 property for rent is between 1 million and above in the enugu market while only 36 ads is for rent in osun market.

So which metric are you using to measure?
