Reverse UNIMED’s tuition increment or face mass action – Group tells Akeredolu Published on September 25, 2018 By Abdul Babajide The Governor of Ondo State, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has been urged to desist from further increasing the misery of the Ondo people through the outrageous increment in the tuition fees of the state’s tertiary institutions. A group known as the Sunshine Liberation Front, SLF, which gave the admonition in a statement issued Tuesday in Akure, the state capital, and made available to DAILY POST, alleged that the policies of Akeredolu since his assumption of office as governor in 2017 have been anti-masses oriented. The statement signed by the group’s Media and Publicity Officer, Oluwagbenga Ajongbolo kicked against the recent increment in the tuition fees of the University of Medical Sciences, Ondo, UNIMED, by the governor with an appeal on him to reverse the hike. “Since its inception, the present Ondo government led by Arakunrin ‘Rotimi Akeredolu, has inflicted more pains and wreaked further havoc on the already destabilized pysche of the citizens of the sunshine state. “It has continued to destroy the educational foundations his forebears laid, degrade the legacies and seem determined to plunge our dear state into more educational misfortunes. “Arakunrin Akeredolu and his cronies have come up with another means of extorting Ondo state students in particular and Nigerian students in general with this newest path to raking in more internally generated revenue. A student paying a little above N200,000 may not return to school if he doesn’t have over N450,000.” The group also noted that the increment was not in tune with the economic realities of the state, particularly given that Ondo State is a civil service state. Ajongbolo emphasized that some parents as well as guardians are yet to recover from similar increment in the tuition of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko some months ago by the governor which led to massive protests within the school community and in Akure, where commercial activities were grounded for four days. “Was it not months ago that the students of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, their parents and concerned citizens took to the streets of Akure, Lagos, Ibadan, Abuja and other parts of Nigeria to protest the over 400% increment in their tuition? “A school reputed to be the best amongst the rest and whose students and graduates continue to break national and international academic records even as the least paying public institution in Nigeria.” “It’s no longer strange and new that the hatchet men for these heinous crimes against humanity and right to education are being promised and rewarded with juicy political posts. Dr. ‘Tunji Abayomi, who championed the arbitrary increment of AAUA fees, which resulted into thousands of students dropping out of school, is gunning for a senate seat to represent the district where majority of these ‘unfortunate’ students hail from.” SLF also vowed to resist the increment through peaceful protest if the decision is not reversed. “We therefore urge Arakunrin Akeredolu to reverse this anti people policy or face mass action as we won’t hesitate to ground the state to a halt by peacefully protesting this wicked, evil and inhumane anti progressive plan to shut the doors of education to the underprivileged ones in the society,” it said. http://dailypost.ng/2018/09/25/reverse-unimeds-tuition-increment-face-mass-action-group-tells-akeredolu/ Lalasticlala

A vehicle of the Press Corps in the convoy of Mrs. Betty-Anyanwu Akeredolu, wife of the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, was involved in a ghastly motor accident on Friday, Sahara Reporters can authoritatively report. The vehicle, a white Toyota hummer bus attached to Office of the Ondo State First Lady, Mrs. Akeredolu, was conveying some participants at a programme to Akure when the accident occurred. It was gathered that no fewer than five persons escaped with various degrees of injuries in the accident, which was caused by overspeeding. Back in March, the same vehicle conveying members of the Press Corps attached to Mrs. Akeredolu in a convey accident killed two undergraduates students. Meanwhile, a source involved in the crash but who asked not to be named, told our correspondent that the accident occurred along the popular Ondo Road. The source revealed that the accident involved the Press Corps bus and a black jeep after the driver drove recklessly on the road. "The members of the Press Corps were returning from their monthly programme known as Forum of the Wives of the Ondo State Government Officials (FOWOSO), which was held at Ese Odo local government area of the state when the accident occurred," he said. "Don't forget that the FOWOSO is the brainchild of Mrs. Akeredolu. The accident occurred due to the recklessness of the driver, although I learnt that he has been complaining about servicing the vehicle too before the accident. "Nobody died in the accident but some of us got injured as it was a narrow escape from death; some have been taken to the hospital for treatment due to injuries sustained." A government house source also confirmed the accident but refused to give further details about the crash. "Yes, it's true the accident happened but must journalists always report everything concerning us here?" he asked. "Moreover, those who were involved in the crash have been taken care of, while the First Lady has been briefed about the incident. I can't tell you more that." http://saharareporters.com/2018/06/09/five-injured-auto-crash-involving-press-corps-attached-akeredolus-wife cc Lalasticlala |
Oodua Youth Coalition (OYC) has lampooned President Muhammadu Buhari for his plan to bestow posthumous honours on Chief MKO Abiola and Gani Fawehinmi, 25 years after the annulment of an election widely believed to be the freest and fairest in the country’s history. The group expressed disappointment that the posthumous titles (GCFR and GCON) conferred on the two nationalists came when all they fought for were been ignored and disregarded by the government. In a statement obtained by SaharaReporters in Akure, Ondo State, on Thursday, the group described Buhari’s posthumous honours as insulting, unacceptable and a flagrant abuse of power and legality. “It is shocking to point out that these posthumous titles, the Grand Commander of the Federal Republic(GCFR) and Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger(GCON), granted Chief MKO Abiola and Chief Gani Fawehinmi respectively, came when all what these two outstanding Yoruba sons fought for and against are being brazenly ignored, overlooked or deliberately disregarded,” read the statement, signed by OYC National President, Tayo Akintade Oluyi, and Oluwagbenga Ajongbolo, the National Publicity Secretary. “As students of history, we at the Oodua Youth Coalition recall that in the early days of the late internationally known military dictator, General Sani Abacha, our own war viceroy, Moshood Kasimawo Olawale Abiola, was arrested and charged for treason and the plot to forcefully take over government. About the same time, then General Muhammadu Buhari was appointed to head the newly created Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF). “For the next four years or thereabouts, General Muhammadu Buhari was everywhere in Nigeria bringing in funds and remitting 25% of the annual revenue of PTF to the military government while our MKO Abiola was languishing in jail until his suspicious death on July 7th, 1998. The lanky, gap-toothed soldier couldn't prevail on his boss to release our Aare Ona Kakanfo. “On 22nd of May 2018, just a week before the ‘former’ Democracy Day, President Buhari had lambasted us for insulting his former boss, Sani Abacha. He also lampooned us for having differing opinions of his dead master. He didn't care what we said about the dreaded general. He was angry we were calling for the head of the man who jailed, killed and/or attempted to kill our Yoruba leaders. Olusegun Obasanjo. Oladipo Diya. Abraham Adesanya. Bola Ige. Olusegun Osoba. ‘Bola Tinubu. “Even the darling and daring wife of MKO, Kudirat Abiola, was gunned down on the streets of Lagos in 1996. Muhammadu Buhari was in that government! Yet, on the May 29th, 2018, which the President celebrated with drums rolled out and a public holiday declared, our heroes of democracy were never mentioned. “The iconic June 12 was conspicuously missing. We didn't hear anything about MKO Abiola. The struggles and hustles that followed were forgotten. The hunting and hounding of freedom fighters weren't interesting stories. NADECO was omitted. The arrests and imprisonments of dissenting voices no longer mattered. And seven days later, all these were resurrected and suddenly President Muhammadu Buhari remembered the late legal icon and human rights activist, Chief Gani Fawehinmi.” The group affirmed that it would not commend the Federal Government for honouring the two legends until the true tenets of democracy are practised in the country by elected leaders. It also maintained that the Yoruba youth would only accept the honours if Chief MKO is declared authentic winner of the June 12, 1993 election and the eight-point complaint of Gani Fawehinmi is fully addressed. “On the 15th of December, 2008, the legal luminary had written a long letter in response to the national honour bestowed on him,” it said. “Then President Umaru Musa Yar’adua had listed his name as one of the fortunate Nigerians to have been awarded an OFR (Order of the Federal Republic) in recognition of his relentless and tireless efforts at reshaping Nigeria. He rejected it and highlighted eight ( wants before he could change his position:1. The abolition of poverty from the face of our country. 2. The unqualified need to preserve, defend and protect the fundamental human rights. 3. The governance of our country through democratic processes. 4. The subjection of everybody and everything to and under the Rule of Law. 5. The right of the people to free and qualitative education at all levels. 6. The right of the people to free and qualitative health services and facilities. 7. The strengthening of our economy through sound development of infrastructures including power generation (electricity), good roads, good and modern rail system across the length and breadth of Nigeria, good water way transportation system. 8. The overall duties of all Nigerians and governments (local, states and federal) to make Nigeria a corruption free country by fighting corruption with all our might and mind. “Late Gani Fawehinmi would be turning in his grave now looking at the posthumous insult his former friend is dishing out to him. "He would be disturbed by how a man, whom he once praised and hailed and who has failed in all ramifications, would continue to subject his hard-earned reputation to public ridicule. “If he were alive today, he would have distanced himself from President Buhari, who has consistently and continuously worked against humanity and the eight points he stated in his rejection letter almost 10 years ago".” http://saharareporters.com/2018/06/07/youth-group-buhari-keep-your-posthumous-awards-apologise-yoruba-nation#. cc Lalasticlala |

The day three protest against the hike in the school fees of Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba Akoko (AAUA) took a different dimension on Wednesday as police allegedly fired gunshots and teargas at students and traders while heading to the Government house at Alagbaka Akure. According to one of the students who simply gave his as Oluwatobi, who had earlier escaped arrest though with injury, the student union president of the institution (AAUA) with traders who had joined in the protest were arrested. The market women on Tuesday threatened to join the ongoing protest by the students. “We were moving our protest to the government house this morning while our mothers and traders followed us. Just some few metres away from the government house, the convoy of the governor was making its way out of the premises. Oluwatobi narrated that the governor’s convoy abruptly swerved on sighting the approaching crowd. “When the governor’s car made a turn, we moved closer but we were interrupted by policemen and we held our hands behind our backs.” The crowd which was caught unawares by an ambush of policemen was overwhelmed a scampered for safety through the bamboo plantation close to the governments house. “The policemen fired tear gas to disband us while our mothers and students were arrested.” Meanwhile, this reporter sighted police vans filled with students and mothers en route the police headquarters in Akure. As at the time of filing this report, the protesters are still allegedly in the police custody. Meanwhile, the students population keeps growing as bonfires are still lit up along Oba-Adesida Road. When SUNSHINE HERALD contacted the information commissioner, Yemi Olowolabi, he directed our reporter to speak to the police, saying it was a police affair. Efforts to speak with the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO Femi Joseph proved abortive, as he did not pick his call on numerous attempts. He also has not replied the text message sent to him as at the time of filing this report. http://www.sunshineherald.news/aauafeesprotest-day-3-police-fire-teargas-arrest-students-and-traders/ |

Lalasticlala, please help these students whose futures would be truncated by this demonic, satanic, outrageous and heartless increment of their school fees. From an average of #25,000 to #180,000 is devilish!! |
saharareporters.com Exclusive: Akeredolu Hires Pro- Govt Students' Leaders To Counter Protests Over Adekunle Ajasin Varsity's Tuition Hike 8-10 minutes Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has hired disgruntled students’ union leaders in some Ondo State owned tertiary institutions to stage a pro-government protest against the students of Adekunle Ajasin University who have been campaigning for a reversal in the recent astronomical hike in their tuition, Sahara Reporters can report. It was authoritatively learnt on Tuesday night that some of the hired students' leaders have been asked to mobilize other groups from different campuses to support the state government against the Adekunle Ajasin University students. Students of Adekunle Ajasin University had on Monday begun a massive protest over the hike in their tuition fee from N35, 000 to N180, 000. The protests by the students on Monday crippled business and commercial activities in the state capital. Many of the students who spoke during the protest said the new fee was unacceptable and not affordable. They also accused Governor Akeredolu led government of commercializing the educational institutions in the state. Local traders and market women who are parents had already shown solidarity with the protesting students and called on government to urgently reverse the hike in the tuition. Meanwhile, an impeccable government source that spoke to our correspondent exclusively disclosed that Mr. Akeredolu hired the pro-government student union leaders with the sum of five hundred thousand naira to support his government on the hike in the tuition. The source revealed that the students leaders are being hired to carry out a counter-protest against the students of the Adekunle Ajasin University. He added that Governor Akeredolu has also instructed his Special Assistant on Student’s Affairs, Banji Adewumi to carry out the "hatchet job" of mobilizing the pro-government protests by some students to support the hike in the tuition fee. According to same source, the state Commissioner of Education, Femi Agagu and Commissioner of Information, Mr. Yemi Olowolabi have also been asked to begin a propaganda campaign in the media against the protesting AAUA Students. “The governor (Rotimi Akeredolu) held a meeting with his political aides and the Commissioners for information, and that of the Education with a plan to counter all the protests of the Adekunle Ajasin University Students. “And shortly after the meeting, it was concluded that some students should be mobilized through some former students union leaders to carry out a pro-government protest that would support the hike in the tuition of the institution. “The Governor is already in touch with his aide on Students' Affairs to mobilize the students with half a million naira to protest and support the government over the hike in the school fee. "The plan is to mobilize the students of the Ondo State University of Science and Technology (OSUSTECH) and some from the University of Medical Sciences who are paying the large sum of over N150, 000 and N180, 000 to justify the action of the government in increasing the fee of that of Adekunle Ajasin University". Sahara Reporters reliably gathered that Governor Akeredolu was embarrassed by the massive protests of the Adekunle Ajasin University students. “When the students started the protest on Monday, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu ran to Lagos where he went to attend the book launch of his younger brother. “The Governor was very embarrassed by the protest of the students, especially as the news went viral that businesses and commercial activities have been shut down in the state due to the protest. “He (Akeredolu) wasn’t comfortable as he started receiving calls from some his close friends who were asking what was really happening in the state, following the protests by the aggrieved students. "In fact, at a time he had to shout on one of his political aides on the phone to do the needful when the pictures emerged on the social media (facebook) of the students shutting down everywhere in protest over the hike in their tuition. "That was exactly why you see mobile and anti-riot policemen shooting directly to disperse the protesting students from the streets because it was the Governor who gave the order through the Police Commissioner, Mr. Gbenga Adeyanju". Our correspondent learnt that one of the former students leaders identified as Ifeoluwa Philip, who was a former Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Students Union Government (SUG) at the Ondo State University of Science and Technology (OSUSTECH) was hired by the government to address the press in kicking against the students protesting. Sources also revealed that Philip was paid to mobilize some students to a press conference to support the state government and justify the increment in the AAAU school fee. One of the sources hinted that the press conference was coordinated by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Segun Ajiboye, who hurriedly mobilized some broadcast journalists to the Helena hotel in Akure where the "paid students leaders" addressed the media to justify the increment in the AAUA tuition fee. While addressing reporters, Philip said that the students’ union leaders were in support of the increase in tuition. He noted that the increment in the fee of the institution was justifiable since other state government owned universities had been paying higher in the past years. He further accused the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) of bias in the ongoing protest against the government. "Our position is that if the state government should revert to the old tuition at Akungba, our tuition at OSUSTECH would have to be reduced to between N23,000 and N37,000 per session as well. What is sauce for the goose should be sauce for the gander. “When the fees for OSUSTECH was increased, where was NANS? Why did they not interfere? But now that AAUA has increased fees, they have interfered, which is biased. “Before now, OSUSTECH new students have been paying between N120,000 and N150,000 as tuition per session. Our counterparts at UNIMED, Ondo pay between N200,000 and N450,000 per session. We are not complaining because the tuition is realistic in the spirit of the economic realities and academic excellence. “On a realistic note, placing AAUA on one hand and OSUSTECH and UNIMED on the other, one would see that Akungba, which has been receiving government attention in terms of infrastructure development deserves to pay more than the other state-owned institutions,” he said. But reacting, Kingsley Oladunmoye, the SUG President of OSUSTECH disclosed that Ifeoluwa Philip was no longer a student of the school and has no right to speak on behalf of the entire students. Mr. Oladunmoye noted that the press Conference addressed by him (Philip) was political motivated by the state government to cause division among the students over the hike in AAUA fee. He explained that OSUSTECH students were in support of the AAUA protest, and called on the government to urgently reverse its decision on the hike in the institution fee. "We were at the protest ground and we stood our ground for both our citadel of learning (OSUSTECH) and our sister university (AAUA) that the tuition fee should be reduced. "The orientation has been re-engineered and the level of thinking has changed drastically which has given us the willingness to fight for Nigeria students as justice is our priority. "We are totally in support of the protest as we want a better life for all and education must be affordable by all. "There should not be any reason to commercialize education as even the government officials are products of free education. "On this note I am glad to inform the general public that OSUSTECH students and union leaders never went against the protest but we stood gallantly till a compromise was reached" he said. Already, members of the Ondo State House of Assembly have directed members of the governing board and the management of the institution to appear before them today over the tuition hike. Bamidele Oloyelogun, Speaker of Ondo State House of Assembly gave the directive during a plenary session. The Assembly had earlier disassociated itself from the hike in the school fee of the Adekunle Ajasin University, noting that the increment was unjustifiable. http://saharareporters.com/2018/04/11/exclusive-akeredolu-hires-pro-govt-students-leaders-counter-protests-over-adekunle-ajasin |

Lalasticlala, could you please help AAUA students in their educational plight? I'm a graduate of this great institution and I paid tokens as tuition in my entire stay on campus. In Akungba Akoko, the host community where over 85% of the students live, they provide their own social amenities which ordinarily should be at their disposal. They provide their own electricity fueling generators every evening. They buy water and could go kilometers to get a 25kg. Most AAUAites sponsor themselves in school because of the low tuition in comparison to the high quality of knowledge and morals passed unto them. What then would happen to a young lady who does menial jobs to keep herself in school and still feeds herself? Would she not engage in prostitution and other vices related to lost and forsaken girls? What would happen to the boys? Most of who engage in handworks and other hard works to give themselves good education? Robbery? Kidnapping? Cultism? Rituals? What would happen to the ones who still manage to have their civil servants parents and petty business guardians? Withdraw from school and start living useless lives? Depression? Suicide? Turn hardened criminals? Become state enemies? Seun and Lalasticlala should please come to these students aids and help them out during this trying period. If the governor finally carries out his threat of increasing the tuition of AAUA, thousands of the students will surely withdraw their studentships and become more problems for the society. We do not want a truncated future for these promising ones. |

Olamide George already left PDP after the Ondo gubernatorial elections in 2016. He only made it official yesterday. It's a pity he has disappointed thousands of common Ondo youths, especially Akure residents and most importantly Oba ile people who gave him all their best during his struggles while with Dr. Segun Mimiko and his early stint at the state's house of assembly. To people who still think these guys think and care about them, you are on a long thing. Wise up and do the needful. Presently, I expect the youths and the learned in his Akure North constituency express their displeasure against his defection and start the process for his recall or a strategic, political move to stop his reelection come next year. He is gunning for the speakership position. |

Dr. Peter Ayodele Fayose, The Executive Governor of Ekiti State, Government House, Ado-Ekiti. Dear sir, LETTER OF APPRECIATION I write to acknowledge your unrelenting and untiring efforts at repositioning the dwindling fame and fortunes of your glorious state whose wheel you have steered for well over three years now. I woke up this morning to read the state's House of Assembly has passed the bill to curb the nefarious activities of cultists and cult groups which you personally drafted and submitted. Like most Nigerians, who had their reservations and showed their concerns about your style of governance and opposition to the federal government led by President Muhammadu Buhari, I was a louder voice against your choice of words and the seeming hatred I believed you had for the aging leader we finally settled for. Your recent actions and steps in protecting the lives and properties of your people is second to none and is already the template on which many of the opposition states, who initially criticized your move as a direct affront to the Abuja constituted authority, are building their security bills and laws. Earlier this year, you confronted the Fulani herdsmen in your territory and banned their open grazing. Today, the maiming and killings of Ekiti farmers has finally come to an end as these poor farmers now go to their farms without fear of harassment from the rabid herdsmen and the destruction of their farmlands by their cattle. Ekiti state can be tagged the safest state presently considering the herdsmen menace and other avoidable crises bedeviling other states. Several months, after lives and properties of their people have been lost to these marauding herdsmen, state governors are now waking up to their responsibilities. First was the Benue state governor, who unlike you, had to visit the president before he could make pronouncements about the banning of open grazing in his state. This week, Darius Ishaku of Taraba was at the Presidential Villa to also seek permission from the president before he could announce open grazing would be banned in his state in January! Last week, when the internet was awash with pictures of two mutilated alleged cultists allegedly killed by their rival groups, you placed a huge bounty on the killers and I'm sure they would be apprehended soon. You also promised to dig up an earlier bill to end these useless and senseless acts. Today, the bill has passed third reading, waiting for your assent to become an Ekiti law! Any cultist caught in the Fountain of Knowledge would have his head on the guillotine, their accomplices with life sentences and any building housing them bulldozed and razed down. Who wouldn't applaud you for this! A governor who doesn't joke with the safety and security of lives and properties of his people should and must be appreciated and supported. I had my formative years in the hilly town of Ikere-Ekiti and the love of the land is still deep and fresh in my heart, as I continue to monitor the rate of development in the state and pray for the growth and wellbeing of the people. May you succeed. Oluwagbenga Ajongbolo (Ajoskele), Akure. cc: Lalasticlala |
