Do you know Appeal court already cleared Adeleke of forgery and the judgement declared as judgment in rem which binds the whole world?
Do you aware that WAEC brought a ledger to court showing that Adeleke sat for the WAEC in 1981?
Do you know that no institution was called to defend Ekiti deputy governor of APC in Ekiti, yet she was cleared of forgery?
Please don't mislead the public with your bias report.

What did the small boy say

Can't you read again...or you think your lies will not be challenged?

garfield1:

So how many times do you want them to invite WAEC to come and testify? And were daft to see that a judgement of the court of appeal has been submitted?
If you don't know, the onus is mostly on the petitioner to show that his evidence of over-voting are based on analysis of primary source document which your political adviser turned expert failed to prove. Your crying remains one. Just wait till the end of January when Tribunal will give judgement.

Osun Tribunal: Adeleke, PDP failed to defend over-voting, forgery allegations

By Adebayo Adedeji

There appears to be fire on the mountain for the new governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, as the life of their infant administration is threatened in view of the seemingly lacklustre and weak defence put forward by their counsels during the hearing of the Osun State Governornship Election Petition Tribunal.

Rather than calling the right witnesses that would help their case and impugn the allegation of over-voting and forgery leveled against Adeleke, the respondents' counsels chose to revel in showmanship, farcicality and banality. They, strangely, left their burden of proof to be carried and shouldered by the petitioners.

Whereas it is trite in law that facts of common knowledge need no be proved in court, the political worshippers of the "interim" governor in Abere believe otherwise. They reason that Oyetola should have gone a step further to parade witnesses, from WAEC, NECO, NYSC, to establish his forgery allegation against their idol.

According to Section 124 of the Evidence Act 2011:

(1) Proof shall not be required of a fact the knowledge of which is not reasonably open to question and which is –
(a) common knowledge in the locality in which the proceeding is being held, or generally; or
(b) Capable of verification by reference to a document the authority of which cannot reasonably be questioned.

It is common knowledge that a WAEC result must show an examination number and grade obtained by the candidate.

It is common knowledge that NECO was established in 1999, and not in 1981!

It is common knowledge that NYSC only issues Exclusion letter to part-time or online graduate, and not Exemption certificate as we have it in the case of Adeleke.

It is also common knowledge that Osun State was created in 1991; and therefore a document purpotedly issued in 1988, but bearing Osun State, as related to Adeleke's secondary school testimonial, is fake.

So it is ludicrous to read warped arguments being canvassed by some political devotees of the current government shifting the burden of proof, on what is common knowledge, to the petitioners.

Let's ask: on whose requests were the WAEC official and Ede Muslim Grammar School's Principal summoned to the Bwari High Court in 2019 when Adeleke's 1981 May/June result was a subject of litigation? Adeleke and PDP's requests, of course! So, why did they choose to play ostrich this time around?

Matter-of-factly, the respondents had the opportunity to invite an official of the West African Examination Council to validate the dancing governor's 1981 Nov/Dec GCE result questioned by the petitioners. Instead, a Bunmi Jenyo, Adeleke's domestic staff, was brought forth to speak on documents that do not belong to him. Witness Jenyo became a "cynosure" of all eyes at the Tribunal when he struggled to prove that his Nigerian travel passport was the only evidence in his possession to demonstrate that, (1), he attended the graduation ceremony of Adeleke, and (2), that his principal did not obtain a degree from Atlanta Metropolitan State College 24 days after he completed his Penn Foster High School studies.

Legal opinions differ, but consensus is that what petitioners needed to have done on the issue of over-voting was to tarnish the credibility of the alternate election reports presented by the two star witnesses for the respondents, Mrs Abimbola Oladunjoye (INEC ICT Deputy Director) and Mr Samuel Oduntan ( a forensic examiner). And this responsibility counsels for petitioners discharged creditably. Oladunjoye, for example, did not only agree that over-voting took place in the July 16 election, she confirmed that the result upon which Adeleke was announced winner of the contest was untidy and incomplete as at July 17 when the Commission declared him Osun governor-elect.

siraj1402:
Honestly I don't like Oyetola but he will be back with the latest development at the tribunal.

Which development?... don't be deceived by their paid News paper.

I can tell you boldly that Oyetola is not returning to Osun government house.

Any issue with it and can it go for 1m?

mach7:
Very apt, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue here is LAWFUL votes and the contention is what happened at Ede.

The Electoral rules was contravened when voting was allowed to continue until late into the night. All votes cast after 2pm on that day should be considered as invalid.

Please don't mislead the public...the electoral act stated that vote closed at 2:30 pm if no one is on the que anymore. However, if by 2:30 pm, people are still on the que, the voting will continue until the last person on the que as at 2:30pm cast his/her vote. So, the issue is that the person that will vote must be on the que not later than 2:30 pm while the voting can last till 10pm.
In the case of Ede you mentioned, I voted at Ede. I got to the poling unit at 11am but as 2:30pm when the remaining number of people on the que was counted, I was given number 160 while people that remain as at that time were about 300. INEC had to bring 4 extra BVAS machine to join the 2 we were using before arround 5p. So I voted arround 5:30pm and the poll closed in my unit at about 6pm.
For your information, the unit I am talking about has arround 1800 registered voters while that of Owode that they make reference to has more than 3000 registered voters in that unit.

What does he has to offer people of Osun, A man that has no Waec results and certificate, want to compete with the like of Akin Ogunbiyi, a PhD holder that build a conglomerate like Mutual Benefits and give employment to thousands of people. It's only to rely on the money and fame of his family. Is an insult to Osun people for such a clown dancer to even aspire to lead them

You guys have come again with your hate and penchant to deceive unsuspecting public while pursuing your selfish interest as APC member. As an insider, I know quite much that APC are praying Ademola should not emerge as candidate. Mr APC, can you tell us where Ogunbiyi bagged Ph.D because the last time I check, he has honorary doctorate degrees and he is never a Ph.D holder.

Optimistguy1969:
I'm sure the BS on his cap stands for BULL SHIT

But Bamidele Salam is intellectually sound and has perfectly represented the constituency. Even APC sane members in the constituency can testify to that.

kstyle2:
please, I'll like to know why you are rooting for him. As a senator, what are his achievements?

From my own view as a constituent, I can say he did much more better than the current senator during his less than two years stay at the senate. He provided transformers for more than twenty communities and markets like odori market in Iwo...He built schools and provided equipments for the artisans...and the mother of it he sponsored 50 students for University Education from 100 level to final year with #250 million.

Eddie4God:
The Federal High Court Sitting in Abuja on Saturday ruled that the Edo state governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki is duly qualified to contest the September 19, 2020 governorship election in Edo state. Case 1 closed. Case 2 to follow.

#StayTuned for more information

Which one be case 2 again?

abramelin11:
The entire APC supported and still supports total removal. Months ago, Osinbajo assured us that subsidy has gone for good and will never come back. What is then responsible for this sudden jump in price?

For 5k, learn to build any kind of website with WP tools in just 2 days!

Chat/Call:> +234 814 565 8405

When subsidy is removed, the implication is that price would be driven by forces of demand and supply just like some other goods we buy in the market. So the price may be 100 naira today and become 85 naira tomorrow depending on the reactionary forces in the crude oil market both locally and internationally.
In fact, if there is total deregulation in the sector, the price of fuel in Lagos may be different from the price of fuel in Ebonyi and so on.

Arrewa:
As far GPD is concerned! Sokoto is richer than Ebonyi state!

By the way, GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is not an accurate metric to measure & gauge productivity & output in various Nations in the 21st Century.

Domestic work, impact of modern technologies & the burgeoning informal sector in “developing” Nations are exempted in the calculus

Source please...I need the data

Good move. I have been expecting this from the government. Kudos to the Kaduna state government for the bold step. The cut would have been more than that had economic principles were totally followed. Other state governments and federal government should follow suit especially for those at the top of the salary ladder.

Acidosis:
Stop deceiving the educated illiterates here. Nigeria do not have a comparative advantage when it comes to rice production. Local rice can NEVER be as cheap or cheaper than Thai rice.

Yes, local production of goods is a great idea but what countries do is to focus effort on their core comparative advantage, and build on it enough to generate fx. That's the fastest way to build the economy. We will never be able to export our rice.

Nothing like deception here bro. What comparative advantage Thai has over Nigeria when we are blessed with large expanse of land with relatively good climate?. The only area where we may be lacking is the rice mils and other infrastructure which can be fixed in a matter of time.
But if Nigeria has no comparative advantage in Agriculture, in which area does it have?
On Forex reserve, we can see that reduction in rice importation by encouraging local productions contributes substantially to the increase in foreign reserve from around $28b 3 years ago to about $43b at the moment.

skybird212:
Good. But can you pls explain to me, how come our own grown rice is more expensive @20k per bag than the foreign we used to buy @7500 in just 3yrs ? Thank you !

In the short run, the average cost of production is higher and that will result to higher prices charge by producer. In the long run however, as the average cost continues to drop, the price also falls.
Also, as more people are entering the market, the market price would eventually fall in the long run. It is that time lag that you people are impatient to wait for probably because of your lack of understanding of the principles of economics.

The comments I see in this tread really amaze me bcs I wonder why people will jump into conclusion without adequate reasoning.
About 2000 police officers were to be trained to fight Bokoharam, but about 160 of them who are mostly Christians show cowardice and run away. What if 99 or 100% of those receiving training now are Muslims?
FFK has started what they did in 2015 that made their party failed and later he will be claiming that Buhari is dividing Nigeria.
Nigerians should be wise up and don't allow people like FFK who are only concerned about their selfish interest to divide us along religion and ethnic line.

MICHEALADEX:
Buying of transformers is one project and not 8projects building one block of 2classrooms it simply a slap on the people compare to what they take home

He just gave my community a new transformer and that is not on the list.
So he has even done more than what on the list within just a year

gaby:
lol...una no go kill people with lies for this country abeg.

From the first item on your list of achievements, even though the sentence was a hard nut to comprehend, do you really mean to convince us that you gave out an average of 5,000,000 naira in scholarship funds to 50 undergraduate Osun indigenes?

God dey watch una...

Keep bandying figures and imaginary accomplishments about.

Enjoy my siggy guys

Yes it is true bro. The students are given scholarship from 100 level to 400 and 500 levels as the case may be.

LuciferKristi:
Even if its him nko? How the Bleep does that matter?
So we should vote him in because he dances?

What is wrong with Africa?

What has this man done during his days as a senator? What bills has he sponsored? What positive changes has he effected economically that can be chanelled if he becomes Governor?

These are questions that will be asked in developed countries.

But in a lifeless country where the average IQ is below 67, he will be voted for because he can dance & he is the uncle of a music star.

Sh¡t!

You are right. In case you don't know, within Eleven months in Office as a senator, he has executed more than eighteen projects cutting across Osun West Senatorial district. The projects include 325 million naira full undergraduate scholarship for 65 constituents, one industrial generator at abbatoir maker in Iwo, several transformers for communities within the senatorial district, renovation and construction of classrooms, training programs for the youths and civil servants among others

Ologogoro:
Abi o, those people saying bad things about APC and aregbesola are people.that have not been to Osun or people that have their families contesting for one position on the platform of the opposition Parties.
Though he is owing SOME civil servants, but the infrastructure development in Osun is clear for all to see.
Good roads every where and great improvement in the education sector of the state of Osun.
I challenge all those against are gondola to show me any state in the south west (Except Lagos) that can match Aregbesola achievement in the space of 8years..

Kwara Ekiti Ondo

Oga even though I accept that he invested on infrastructure, that can only be said of Osogbo and some part of Ilesha. You can please take a trip to Ede, you will weep bro despite that he took such enormous loan

What most people don't know is that the state party leadership including the party chairman didn't support senator Adeleke but to their surprise he won.
Dr Akin is only crying fowl where there is none

SalamRushdie:
The NBS alludes that an average of 5 million jobs are being lost in the formal sector every year under Buharis leadership and has officially recorded about 10 million lost jobs in two years already so give and take Buhari is days away from hisbthird year being complete so that figure should be about 13 million if one is be very modest and please remember nobody has records of jobs lost in the informal sector which could even be double that .

it is good that you know how to quote statistics. But do you know what business cycle is all about in Economics? Do you care to check what happened to other economies that rely heavily on crude oil such as Angola and Venezuela between 2015 and now? Do you know that more than states in Nigeria found it difficult to pay workers salary as at May 2015? Do you know that bail out of more than 1 trillion naira was given to states to meet salary payment? Do you know that inflation has maintain downward trend for almost 10 months now as it was reported to be 13.34 last month and predicted to be 12.7 this month? Do you know how much was in Excel crude account prior to 2010 and how much was there in 2015? Since you believe NBS negative reports, I hope you will not doubt positive reports that comes from there?
For those who are reading, please don't let us waste the sacrifice we made in the last years, by being confused by some selfish element. Indian suffer before they could transformed there economies, the same for Asian tigers countries.
So, don't confuse people with your biased comments.

Please look critically into any argument before you come into conclusion so that you will not fall into the hands of Selfish and corrupt people.

This is a good development if it can encourage the use bicycle. This is important for the attainment of a more sustainable transport system since it will reduce emission from transport related activities.

smato:
Tit for tat, they the Fulani's started it.

I feel ashamed living together in the same country with some unintelligent set of people who are either ethnic or religious bigot.
I believe you can see that this killing against the herdsmen happened long term ago and no body reported it. but when there was reprisal, the whole country rose up. We need to re direct our way and stand for truth irrespective of ethnic or religious affiliation.

If the statistics report a fall in production, these set of haters will believe but if it is positive, they will claim it is false. Even the dump that posted the graph cannot interprete the graph correctly.
Stop playing ethnic game and note that any economy that undertakes policy changes will initially witness some challenges.

Buhari why nau? You have given IPOD pig there food. Any way, sai baba till 2023.

Where then is the change??

APC must change their slogan now... because they are doing everything previous govts did....

Unfortunately, economic recession we found ourselves in could not make us to really blame the present government. And I am sure that you know that a country does not own total control of its economy, certain external forces also dictates happenings in any economy.
Economic situation in Nigeria for instance is affecting neighbouring countries like Niger and Benin rep.

Reasonable yorubas know this man's act is wrong.... Everyone wishes him recovery, buh he is supposed to use Nigerian made hospitals after millions of naira were budgeted, and if after all he is not fit to rule, let him resign and handover to Osibanjo... simple!!!

Previous government and Nigerian mentality deprived us of good health facility.
To me, I believe he himself would have wished to receive treatment in the country but for circumstances.

It is you that I should call a hypocrite because I believe u are a human too. He was there on health ground and base on the advise of his doctor.
A typical Yoruba think deeply before he or she act.
Left to me, I wish him quick recovery.
