AsawanaDgreat:
This man don forget about politics unlike some of our politicians

Sabur Oladimeji Bankole, contested last General elections as the flagbearer of ADP. Though the sad reality is that, the son of Chief Alani Bankole, Political Godfather & Egba High Chief doesn't have the fan base again. He'll surely bounce bank stronger. In all, HML Rt. Hon Sabur Oladimeji Bankole...

Soknown:
He was quoted to have said something on radio when he was the Governor. People complained of potholes on Ikirun road or was it Station road, I can't remember. He replied them, Was it the government that dug the potholes?. It was a reckless and controversial statement for a Governor but it was the truth. People will burn tyres on new roads and still complain that the road got bad.
Secondly he scrapped the teaching of unnecessary subjects like Yoruba, Islamic religion studies (IRS) and Christian religion studies( CRS) from the Secondary School Curriculum in Osun. Famous for telling IRS teachers to go the Mosques to teach and CRS teachers to teach in Churches.
He was a pragmatic Governor but very reckless in his speech, with his "Show me your 32" broad smiles.
Happy Birthday to Baba Omo kekeke.

Absolutely right.
This story unfolds at the commissioning of the Bola Ige House, It was an impressive occasion where our mama, the late Justice Atinuke Ige, widow of Uncle Bola, was the special guest of honour. Our father, Oba Adekunle Aromolaran, the Owa Obokun of Ijeshaland, spoke on behalf of the royal fathers present on that day. He praised Akande for his diligence and rigourous husbanding of Osun State resources. Then he remarked pointed: “Gomina kii toju awa oba daada!” (The Governor does not take better care of us royal fathers!) That was the day I knew Akande may not win a second term. When the tsunami came therefore, it was not totally unexpected.
Even now at 82, Akande remains a man in high demand. After he left office as Governor, he had served as the chairman of the AD, then the Action Congress, AC, and became the first acting Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC. Akande’s life of productive labour is proof that leadership is crucial to human development. The people continue to lionize him for despite the decadence and decay surrounding us, we all know the value of competent leadership with integrity, courage, love and knowledge as Akande demonstrated in all his assignments, especially when he was Governor of Osun State. Akande is a living proof that a tree can actually make a forest.

In truth, Akande was parsimonious in his management of Osun State resources. When he got to power, he realized that Government was always made to pay more for all items. “Car tyres that should normally cost N6,000.00 were being recommended for N40,000.00 per one,” he stated in his book.
“Are the Governor’s tyres different from the ones we buy outside?” he asked. He was told it was the same. Then he called his friend in Ibadan from whom he has always bought tyres. The tyres were supplied at N10,000.00 a piece. Therefore, he realized he could save money if he puts a rigourous process in place. That was what he did. Every expenditure was monitored. Within three years, he was able to save billions of naira. It was from such savings that he built the sprawling new Osun State Secretariat in Osogbo. At the heart of the Secretariat is the Bola Ige House, the new Governor’s Office. Without Akande’s unblinking attention, the entire secretariat would literarily have been pilfered away through labyrinthine channels of corruption.
Happy birthday once again, Baba AbdulKareem Adebisi Akande❤

They are just too senseless. It is the Muslims among them that are pushing this stories to paint Seyi Makinde black. They are still in sifia pains that they Alahaji Adelabu was beaten blue-black on the Election. I pity gullible Senseless Christians that have been brainwashed to be speaking against Makinde. Their eyes would soon be clear when their enemies once again reclaim Oyo State and impose Islam like Rauf did in Osun State.

You're too stoopid. So, it was only the christians that voted for him in 2019?

NaijaOlosho:


Tinubu has installed some moles in PDP to destabilize the peoples party.

But let me remind Tinubu that he will be behind bars prior to 2023 I fore see it.

What did you see about your own future?

I hope you are not adding Lagos as part of your Yoruba land?

Where does Lagos belongs, Historian?

jneutron4000:
Any Igbo we catch protesting in Yorubaland will be punished, go and protest in Ibo land. You Nyamiri is not allow to participate in our protest and we are also working for you to stop participating in our politics as well, we have given you too much chance that you have grown the confidence to be insulting our political leaders who has no business with Igbo land, the way you insult Tinubu as if he has ever rule in Igbo land or as if he is the one receiving SE monthly allocations will not be tolerated. That Albino monkey called Nnamdi kanu is warned, if he gives any stupid Instructions just like the one he gave that Sanwolu and Tinubu should be attacked, what happened at Ladipo is just a warning.

I was on bike when the rider asked about my state of orign, but I feigned it, & said Edo North. He said he's from Bayelsa, and he's trying to preach IPOB's doctrine to me. I told him, he should go back to his state or he'll be shot at, if he/they try anything funny

surgical:
It's a wasted effort by a APC , gbadamosi will be the one that will go to the Senate

Not only Gbadamosi, buh Babaginda! Tokunbo Abiru is elected already.
