LOL egbon, tinubu is a SENATOR thus he can infulence reforms for his sector in Lagos

What has he done so far. Ganuyu Solomon is a sentor and we see his work. what of tinubu ?

Gbawe: Guys, let us see the big picture. Mimiko has done well and he will probably get a second term to continue his efforts despite Akeredolu being a genuinely progressive candidate and the sort anyone would ordinarily want involved in SW politics at the highest level. Overall, events bode well for the political future of the SW. We need to look beyond the spat of politicians, itself an inevitable by-product of the "dirty game", and focus on why we all involved ourselves in political discussions in the first place i.e the desire to see the development of our States, regions and Nation. If Ondo is witnessing progress under Mimiko, then let that continue.

It is testimony to the positive changes becoming entrenched in the SW that we now see a performing Governor (Mimiko) challenged by a formidable opposition candidate in Akeredolu. The exchange of insults is partisan politics at work and ultimately not relevant enough, IMO, to obstruct from the positives going on here. Of utmost relevance to me is how this is not a battle between light and day , or Jesus and Satan, as was the case in the past. When you have great candidates facing each other, development and progress is the likely reward for the State - whoever wins. This is a situation we should all pray becomes the norm in Nigeria because Partisan politics is essentially a means to an end.

If you have any iota of common sense, (Which would be shocking if you have) you would have known that Oshiomole did not need retardeens support before the election, He didn't need retardeens support during the election

So why would he need retardeens support after the election he won by a landslide margin

What Oshiomole went to Aso rock for was to console Retardeen on the monumental insult that was given to him by the Oba of Bini

Sitting down like a mumu and being ignored by the Oba

Eko Ile: It's really irritating when people defend public officials by saying they are doing a great job, they are building this and that, but they still can not find up with one single fact, picture or any documented proof to back up their claims.

We are not mumu so please don't feed us with what you can not prove with anything.

Take a trip to ondo state and see for yourself. The difference is very clear.

Mimiko is the best thing that happened to ondo state in recent times. The city is looking very clean. . .Right from Ade super hotels to down town, to market place like Olu Kayode. My mistake I couldn't come back with pictures last two weeks I was there.


we have equally felt his shadow in far away Ikare with lots of projects.

Bro you no do your research well o. OAU(Obafemi Awolowo University.A K A Oba Awon University ) is paying not up to [i]N[/i]8000 per year, go confirm.

saxywale:

OAU is a federal university. The poster was referring to states university.

afam4eva: Abeg, they should leave Mimiko to continue. He's the best governor in the south-west afterr fashola. Other CAN governors have failed.

President George H W Bush was president of the US, His first son George W Bush was President of the US, His second son Jeb Bush was Governor of a State.

That must mean the Bush are not democrats.

Too many illiterates on this forum

Please stop the with the weak talk abeg. This is the internet age, not the stone age. Projects are brick and mortar siting on earth soil, not some invisible or below the ground objects.

Whatever projects Ondo state commissioned or is embarking on is on the state's website and it's the same Micky Mouse, substandard and pretentious projects, they are basically lousy reflections of the huge budget in terms of the little population and demand.

decrox199: because Ɣ☺ΰr very lazy τ̅☺ find out by urself bout D̶̲̥̅̊ good work he'Ş doing...fool

antitpiah:

SO this is not just a Yoruba/Ibo thing for you. It is a we vs them thingy, as long as the them dont belong in your imperialist party. You are disgusting and honestly God help you the day I meet you in real life. B/a/s/t/a/r/d.

PStylish:

And that's the mistake Mimiko is making.

He prefers to be the emperor of Labour Party other than a prominent stakeholder in ACN (the party of the Yorubas and Edos).

Afterall, Oshiomhole, though an ACN governor, doesn't bow to or take orders from Tinubu. He runs the Edo show independently. Can't Mimiko do the same in Ondo as an ACN governor? Only Fashola and Aregbesola can be said to be Tinubu's boys of all the ACN governors. Others are pretty independent. Infact, Amosun even seems to romance more with OBJ than Tinubu.Amosun is OBJ's boy.

Mimiko is a right man in the wrong party.

For crying out loud, why should Ondo state be the odd state in the SW and the whole federation?

LP has no presence elsewhere in the country aside Ondo state and it has an Igbo chairman.[/b]The consequence of that scenario is as follows:
1. As the sole LP state, Ondo state govt funds LP nationwide.

2.[b] With the party having an Igbo chairman, the Igbos have been enjoying what should be the birthright of citizens like (political appointments, contracts and what have you) more than they would normally enjoy on a good day. Hence, I'm not surprised Igbos support him.

Mimiko is doing well no doubt. But can we be sure he'll keep it up or increase the pace when he eventually gets the 2nd term? Methinks he'll just relax. Nothing to care for again. He may even return to the PDP.

The reason he is "doing so well" now is because of the potent threat ACN is posing. When the threat is gone its going to be a different ball game.

Ondo state cannot afford to be the odd one out in Yorubaland. We need to return to the mainstream ASAP for the sake of today, tomorrow and the future.

Come to think of it, he's being reconstructing/repairing the Owo-Ikare-Ajowa road now for almost 2 years.Maybe he wants to use its completion as a campaign promise for 2nd term.Thats too bad.


PS: I have nothing against the Igbos before some people will come and tear me up.They are just smart opportunists.

igbo boy: I am damn sure ACN (especially laogs chapter) has a 40 laptop department too like GEJ's PDP..

The ACN's own has to be headed by General Eko Ile, with Dayokanunwankwor as the field Marshal
