Politics › Adebayo Alao-akala Again! by baslone(op): 12:53pm On May 10, 2011
The outgoing governor of Oyo State, Chief Adebayo Alao-Akala, has turned down the
request of the Governor-elect, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, to stop the implementation of the
N18,000 minimum wage for the state workers.


In a statement by his spokesman, Mr. Dotun Oyelade, on Monday, the governor regretted
his inability to accede to the request under any circumstance, saying the promise to pay the
minimum wage, which he voluntarily made on March 29, 2011, 29 days before the governorship
election, had become a covenant between him and the workers.


Alao-Akala took exception to the description of his action as suspicious and controversial, saying
that he gave the promise, convinced that he would be the one to implement it.


“What kind of leader will I be if I have to acquiesce to reneging on a promise I made to my people?


“I wish to leave behind a legacy of policy consistency,” he said.



He disagreed with Ajimobi that it was morally wrong for him to initiate a project that he would not
implement, saying that while it was morally and legally correct for him to effect the minimum wage.


He recalled that former Governor Lam Adesina sealed a N1.8bn contract for an International Market
and Water Projects in the dying days of his administration, while Senator Rashidi Ladoja increased
workers’ salaries and allowances a few days before his departure
.


“The workers in Oyo State will enjoy minimum wage of N18,000 from May 1, 2011 and it is their right to reject the offer,” he said.

Meanwhile, I suggest we call on GEJ and his team to give us all they promised during the campaign, and much more. This include protection of lives and properties and not blaming others for formenting problem. We will no longer be swayed by the pitiable story of "growing up without shoes" and the likes.

Those figures above show an apprx. 50% turnout of registered voters in this election. meanwhile in the presidential elections, they told us that 83% of Imo registered voters came out to vote for GEJ.
I wonder when we will move past mindless rigging in Nigeria.

PS: Congrats to Rochas Okorocha. I've always despised that Ohakim fellow for being an incompetent bully. Good riddance to bad rubbish. I've heard tales of Igbos in markets in far away Lagos doing their victory dance. Shows you how much this lout was hated.
jacobs123:
where are the 1.4 million voters that voted for Jonathan? Did they burn thier voter's card?
noblezone:
I can assure you that 70% of the voters in the South South and South East registered just becuase of Jonathan. They kept telling who so ever cares that were it not for Jonathan, they would not had bothered.

They did not bother to vote during the National Assembly, but during the Presidential polls, they (not even they but we) came out in their numbers to vote not for PDP, or ACN, or CPC or anyother party but simply for JONATHAN.

The guber polls witnessed a low turn just for that reason alone.
See yarns!!! So Igbo’s so love GEJ that 1.4 million voted for him & 630,000 voted in Gubernatorial election.

Every sane person knows that the elections were rigged.I am happy that Imo people were able to defend their votes.Now bleep all y'all.

The turnout in SS was 30%.That I am very certain of.


I have never seen people celebrate in any State won by PDP apart from Enugu.Look at the joy and parties all over Imo tonight.That tells you more than imagination that Nigerians desire change.
Igbo’s so love GEJ that “1.38” million voted for him & 630,000 (APGA 336k,PDP290k) voted in Gubernatorial election. Breathe of AIR!.

@ DAY11: If you don't see anything wrong with your post, then you should be ashamed of yourself. The heading is an insult to our collective national sensibility. And to think I had a lot of respect for you from your previous posts---
The truth is that a lot of Landlords in Lagos prefer to have Yoruba tenants.

Igbos usually pay over the odds for accommodation, thus causing inflation of house
rents by greedy Landlords.

The biggest hurdle these landlords face starts after the first house rent expires. Retrieving
new rents from them turns to another war.

In every case, Landlords end up being the losers.

Politics › Re: Power Sharing: It’s Either The Senate President Or Speaker -s’east Reps ! by baslone: 4:02pm On May 05, 2011
I think S/E should take the Senate Presidency. Since 2007,David Mark dulling the house for too long unlike his Predecessors.


Evan Enwerem(1999 - 1999)Ikeduru, Imo State,

He became the first President of the Nigerian Senate during Nigeria's Fourth Republic. Enwerem beat
his chief rival, Senator Chuba Okadigbo, for the Senate presidency on June 3, 1999. Former Nigerian
President Olusegun Obasanjo backed Enwerem for President of the Senate against Okadigbo. With the
support of the Obasanjo's allies in the governing parties, plus support from two Nigerian opposition parties,
A Nigerian Senate committee began investigating Enwerem for allegations of corruption in 1999. The allegations
against Enwerem alleged that he falsified his name, and caused a controversy as to whether Enwerem's actual
real name was Evan or Evans.Enwerem was removed from office on November 18, 1999, in an ouster spearheaded
by allies of Chuba Okadigbo. However, though removed as President of the Senate, Enwerem remained a member
of the Senate until 2003 August following year, Enwerem briefly expressed interest in again assuming the presidency
of the Senate. However, Enwerem withdrew from the race in favor of Senator Adolphus Wabara at the shadow
election conducted by PDP Senators in Senate Hearing Room One.



Chuba Okadigbo(1999–2000)Ogbunike, Oyi Anambra State

On August 8, 2000, Chuba Okadigbo was impeached as Senate President for corrupt acts following
a damning inquiry into corruption and mismanagement in the Upper House. Among other things, he
was accused of spending $225,000 on garden furniture and having an excessive number of official vehicles
- 32 in total, buying 8 cars for $290,000. He claimed to have spent $340,000 furnishing the official home
to his taste, $120,000 over the authorised budget. The inquiry uncovered what it characterizes as inflated
procurement contracts in the National Assembly overseen by Okadigbo, some of the contracts awarded to
companies in which legislators had a financial interest. Okadigbo initially refused to resign despite being heavily
implicated by the inquiry and had to be impeached by the Senate before he gave up his position.




Anyim Pius Anyim(2000–2003)Ivo LGA, Ebonyi State,


In May 2001, Anyim declared that the upper legislative house was justified in probing the activities of the
Mines and Power Ministry during the tenure of Chief Bola Ige. In June 2002, an attempt led by Anyim to
impeach President Olusegun Obasanjo collapsed. Speaking a year later, Anyim said President Olusegun Obasanjo
misunderstood him on certain issues but there was no conflict between them. In August 2002 he said he was
opposed to all the present office holders - including himself - going for a second term. In November 2002 Anyim
indefinitely suspended Senator Arthur Nzeribe of Imo State due to an allegation of a N22 million fraud. Nzeribe
was said to be planning an impeachment motion against Anyim. The same month, after Anyim had complained about
the Independent Corruption Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), the Senate set up a committee
to examine the continued relevance of the commission. In May 2003, Anyim warned an Abuja High Court judge, Justice
Egbo Egbo, that the parliament had the power to order his arrest over his opposition to the passage of the anti-graft
ICPC law by the Senate.




Adolphus Wabara(2003–2005)-Abia South


Adolphus Wabara was elected to the Senate in 1999, and reelected in 2003. He was president of the
Senate of Nigeria from 2003 to 2005. In the April 2003 election Wabara was first declared the loser to
D.C. Imo, candidate of the All Nigeria People's Party (ANPP), but won a court appeal in June 2003 and was
declared elected. The decision was controversial.In May 2004 senators moved to investigate Wabara over
alleged financial misdeeds. President Olusegun Obasanjo supported the decision. The senators accused Wabara
of exceeding his authority by handing out various contracts without the knowledge or approval of the responsible
Senate committee. An additional allegation was made by Senator Bode Olowoporoku, who denied receiving a
N3 million advance that the Senate President said had been paid to him for a tour of Europe and Latin America.
Wabara said he was ready for the probe, and said the allegations were false, raised by Igbo senators who wanted
his position. In April 2005 Wabara resigned from his position after allegations were made that he and others took
a $400,000 bribe from the education minister, Fabian Osuji

Show us the greatest hero of modern American history, the man who shot America's public enemy
number one, the most evil terrorist in the history of the Universe who masterminded the most spectacular

Parade him on Ground Zero and in downtown Manhattan, give him a row of Purple and rainbow-colored
