In this digital age of high resolution cameras on every smartphone, if there are no pictures to prove it, then its a big fat lie! I didn't read it, I wont read it and I don't expect anybody to read it as simple pictures without a single word would have made more than a thousand times more impact!! Let the pictures roll!! 2 Likes |

PapaBrowne: In this digital age of high resolution cameras on every smartphone, if there are no pictures to prove it, then its a big fat lie! My friend, the article is on the official website of Ekiti State. You are just showing ignorance if you do not know that even in the West no Government department is obligated to supply any pictures to anyone. They will however provide regular updates of work being done . This is , for example, why you won't find any pictures of the superb drainage project carried out in the Bode-Thomas-Eric-Moore axis of Lagos by Julius Berger recently. Of course fellow haters like you came here to say Fashola is a "liar" who has not carried out one single drainage project in Lagos till I supplied my own personal pictures to prove otherwise. Djustice, a known hater of Fashola who claimed the Lagos Governor was just "chopping", was stunned . See the pictures yourself and trawl the net to see if you can find them anywhere else proving my point that no one is obligated to supply pictures to prove anything to mischief makers like you. The drainage is built for me as a Lagosian living in that area. I therefore don't need any silly pictures when I have my eyes same as Ekiti folks lose nothing over your biased cynicism: https://www.nairaland.com/826649/what-big-deal-about-fashola/1 In Nigeria, the style is to make vague allusions to work carried out. Administrators never mention specific names because , even if not obvious to you, the silly example you give of proliferation of smartphones makes you look very dull. If SW PDP can resort to wild fabrication and outright lies, would the ACN not be playing into their hands mentioning actual roads if indeed there is no construction going on and everything is a "big fat lie" as you conclude? Oni, smarting from Fayemi ousting him, and lying through his teeth daily will miss the chance to mobilise a camera crew to ridicule Fayemi? You are not very smart. In any case, why is it that you guys not from the SW are keen to ruin every thread with your silly demand for pictures these days? Why don't you let indigenes speak before you open your mouth to begin yapping nonsensically? It works both ways because if you live in Ekiti you can simply go to many of the sites and prove no work is ongoing. If you don't feel obligated to do that in proving your case why , inversely, should the onus fall on anyone to provide you with pictures when, ultimately, you don't matter at all since you are not from Ekiti State? Go and check Fayemi's history to see he is no conman like many of your political heroes. Anyway, we have heard you. Can you now go and face your own issues abeg. They are talking of roads and you are showing an elevated picture of a town. What confirms your mischief, driven by bias, more than that? http://ekitistate.gov.ng/2012/05/fayemi-turning-ekiti-into-huge-construction-site/ |

I was in Ado 3days ago. Fayemi led administration destroyed the road dividers on the fajuyi-Teaching Hospital road, and infact, on all double carriage in Ado. The engineers on these roads are actualy expanding the dividers. My question is..how will this expand the road? I personally see this as a waste of scarce resources. Nothing was wrong with the road divider that was there before IMO. 1 Like |

Also, his promise to review the strategic position of the state within Nigeria towards becoming the major rice producer for the nation the governor is working towards raising the state's economy and job creation.

Re: Fayemi: Turning Ekiti Into A Huge Construction Site. by Nobody: 3:10pm On May 05, 2012 |
the rocks were blasted to give way to a new lane. The first picture below was taken after they blasted the rocks. The last two pictures were taken when the new lane became functional. the stretch of the road still needs asphalt to be laid on some portions, but truly the government is working. The demolition of illegal structures on the road gave way for the drainage to be dug. I will post(if I can get some soon enough) pictures of the road divider and drainage. Plus the local governments are also constructing 5km stretch of roads by the local council in each local government and digging drainage. 1 Share

I am currently in ado ekiti and i see things for myself. Busy now and will upload some pics soon. Please save yourself the stress of uploading any pictures. I am a son of the soil in Ekiti and infact I have people working in the system right there. I became disenchanted with Fayemi's administration since he mooted the idea of turning that beautiful edifice serving as governor's office to a 'BROTHEL' or hotel if you like. Fayemi is busy wasting the scare resources in Ekiti. What has become of the beautification project till today? Ado township looks horrible, the roads are bad and he's coming here to advertise road repairs which is no achievement to me! It is part of a basic duties of a governor to ensure good roads, portable water and other basic amenities that makes life easier for the citizenry! You don't blow your own trumpet! He has been only busy embarking on white elephant projects. He's no better than his predecessor, Segun Oni. I am no loyalist of any political organisation but I want the best for the state and not just vague projects that have no direct impact on the life of the people! 1 Like |

Re: Fayemi: Turning Ekiti Into A Huge Construction Site. by Nobody: 3:29pm On May 05, 2012 |
Coefficient:Spoken like a true Ekiti man, people will first criticize rather than objectively appraise the man and allow time to prove himself. Questions (since you have the best interest of ekiti at heart) 1. Has Ekiti ever previously experienced any welfare plan,like the one this current governor has? 2. Do you know that the governor's office was converted by Fayose from a hotel to governor's office and this government just wants return back to the original plan. 3. when all the road projects are completed, who will ply these roads,spirits or ekiti people? 4. Are you aware that the beautification project that you are waiting for is what is been executed in phases? 5. What is your defintion of white elephant projects? 6. how is John kayode Fayemi like Segun Oni? pls answer this honestly. sorry folks that y'all gotta strain your necks to see those pictures, consider it some exercise.lol |

Ileke-IdI: Third post? Nah! But hey I'm not asking anyone to share my views. I know you're from Ekiti and am from there as well. Ado-Ekiti precisely. I'm not asking for a magical transformation either but am saying priorities have to be set and gotten right. Let's start with the basic and not vague endeavours. What need is there for turning governor's office to a hotel? Pray tell. And that building is right near the government quarters! Where's the sense security in that? Ado-Afao road is in deplorable state and so many others like that I don't have time to mention. The township dualisation has been as Fayose left it, no significant progress. The road leading to UNAD/EKSU has only one part completed. There have been two governors after Fayose oh. Infact, a lot isn't right with the administration in Ekiti right now. But then there's room for improvisation but let Fayemi get things right and not a wild goose chase with non-viable projects. I can't say it all but I hope he does something significant soon before he's booted out like his predecessors. And like I said earlier, I'm no apologist of any governor or party but whoever is at the helm of affairs should do the right things. |
Re: Fayemi: Turning Ekiti Into A Huge Construction Site. by Nobody: 3:49pm On May 05, 2012 |
Coefficient: The previous/unused gov house was turn into an hotel. And any state needs one. So road building is not a priority anymore? I'm just trying to see where you're coming from. I'm scratching my head over here because I fail to see what you prioritized as urgent in Ekiti. |

Nigeria, the country we all love. To the issue of water, The Irewolede water project commenced by the previous government never for one day pumped water while internal sources said that the water meter kept reading and the government was paying for the water bills. Well that's some food for thought isn't it, you wont find this story in news papers, that's local gossip. The dairy farm at Ikun where cows imported from SA, began to die from malnutrition and some cows had a meeting and decided to bolt away from the dairy farm; that is just another wonder that occurred between 2007 and 2010. These days, minimum wage in ekiti is N19k and the government is paying contractors to do jobs people can see and feel. Education is been restructured, no more external candidates at the WAEC May/June exams, candidates must undergo promotional exam from SS2 to write the exam, which is paid for by the government. Just a little insight to what's going on now. |

Because this same issue applies to Plateau state, when a terrain is rocky then road construction must obviously tackle more difficult challenges in either bypassing or blasting the obstacles. |

Kilode?!: Totally agree! They would make very cool rural resorts. Can be supported with spas and wellness centers as well as some form of Agrotourism! But would that be sufficient to provide a viable economy for the state. Not really. AgriBusiness is the way forward for a state like Ekiti. About "just doing his job", I think it is important to inform the populace on whatever it is that's being done. Do so with every tool at your disposal including well presented pictures and videos. That way, the opposition doesn't get to define you. Fashola is doing a great job at that. So is Oshiomole. 2 Likes |
