Mr Sunday Babalola, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in Kwara, on Tuesday defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), alongside 20,000 of his supporters

Babalola, a governorship aspirant in 2015 on the platform of the PDP announced his defection in statement issued in Ilorin.

He said his perception about politics has been people oriented, and the PDP has deviated from such ideology, hence the need to move to the APC.

“As it is, our dear state needs urgent liberation from the over 45 years of deceit, oppression and primordial politics called ‘stomach infrastructure’

“It is time for our people to be liberated from a those that have hold them hostage and have over the years subjected them to abject poverty and underdevelopment,” Babalola said.

He said it is the duty of government to advance the well-being of the citizens through the provision of infrastructure and amenities, human capital development and creating an environment conducive for businesses.

“I believe strongly that my state, Kwara, has been sadly and regrettably bedeviled with unprecedented underdevelopment occasioned by inappropriate policies, programmes and with little or no project executed,” he added.

He alleged that successive governments in the state have mismanaged its resources and said the APC presents better alternative to place the state on the path of development in 2019.

Babalola said that return of the Senate President Bukola Saraki and others to the PDP was one major reason behind his exit, adding that the party lacks integrity.

“I cannot be in the same political party with those I believe have plunged Kwara State into its current abysmal condition.

“So, I have decided to pitch my tent with the APC, where I believe still have some integrity in it,” he said.
Babalola said he has no ambition to contest in 2019, but only joined forces with people of like mind to rescue the state from “the shackles of poverty and oppression.”

He, however, promised to continue to offer his service and resources for the emancipation of the people. (NAN)

Oga ur attention is needed here in d FrontPage... Stop peddling irrelevant defection stories and come and ansa dis questions... It's funny how all of U have all suddenly ran away from a FrontPage topic dat talked about govt projects

I have done justice to those questions on that thread. Unlike you wailers, I work with facts and not beer parlour gossip

kernel001:


Please where's this imaginable projects?

Some more intelligent people have already answered this question here and you would do well to go through the thread rather than sounding like a terribly broken record

Omeokachie:



Provide link to support these your assertions. Otherwise it remains nothing but the usual beer parlour gossip.

Mr. Infrastructure? Sorry, name the ones he has completed, let me surprise you.

I think you need to read what I posted again so you would stop sounding obtuse

Cherez:

Where is the service?
Who standardizes and measures these projects to ascertain parity with the monies involved?
Bro, it's just two thing; either China is using our head or the FG is being dubious.
NB: This project no be today matter oooo! Since around 2009 and I know this place. WELL

You are obviously suffering from sub par intelligence for saying the above.

Every government has a blue print of what to do and these intended projects always have a Q and Q done to ascertain eventual cost.

This is how figures required to implement are arrived at. If such a government does not have the needed financial ability to execute, they then go with project and figures in hand as they shop for credible project financial partners.

If you say this project has been since 2009 and we had a government before this one, did you query the past government which was a successor to prior PDP governments with a total ruling years of 16?

Do you even have the morals to query a 3+ year old government which has been saddled with about 1000 abandoned projects from 16 years of PDP misrule and which has been working with low funds availability unlike those of the previous government which had oil prices at $130pb?

statusquoante:


If Buhari will not sign the new electoral Bill into law, is it restructuring bill he will sign

State police and resource control are inevitable.

The new electoral bill was not well worded and he has pointed out why he will not sign until they get it right.

Words are powerful and the slightest wrong wording would give it a totally different meaning from what was intended.

The VP has already set up a committee to look into state policing and decentralization of power in the police.

This is not news.

Omeokachie:
Falana should either name what Atiku stole or shut up for good.

Atiku looted monies from Nigeria and used his 4th wife who lives in USA to launder them.

This is over 40 million dollars which the united states government traced and arrested her on money laundry charges. She was sentenced to jail in the USA and ever since then, Atiku has refused to visit USA because he knows that he would be arrested right from the airport.

This is one of many.

Cherez:

U guys ain't getting the drift; the govt tries to borrow unnecessarily and waste time on things that doesn't matter.
The debts are becoming outrageous and unnecessary.
Why borrow money when u had same money but chose to spend it unwisely for cheap political points, monies he PMB will never be ever able to account for how it was used.
Why borrow these monies when the investments by China is yet to be completed?
And when these monies cone, I assure you, you'd still come in here to give same excuses of long duration of projects for them

Most times, the monies are not given. Services which are equivalent to these monies is what is rendered.

Whenever you hear BORROW don't think its all about release of money

kernel001:


How does things work? After three years, not even 10% of the celebrated China deal has been implemented. Shame to APC and those defending mediocrity performance.

80% of the China deal is being and has been implemented.

Stop taking tramadol and carry out your own findings.

Sitting where you are and typing from your imagination just shows how silly you are.

kernel001:



Mention one project started and completed by these administration, that has gulped over 20 trillion Naira budget over the past three years.

Why would this administration focus on beginning projects when the past administrations left about 1000 abandoned projects for it to work on?

You are talking about 20 trillion naira yet we have 1000 abandoned projects and common sense did tell you that any money this government borrowed has gone into getting these abandoned projects up and running?

Must we continue abandoning projects?

This is not about initiating one themselves even though they have but this is also about finishing the ones initiated before this government came online.

This is the reason why BUHARI has been fondly nicknamed MR INFRASTRUCTURE as that is one of his main areas of focus.

He said Nigerians must demand an end to a policy that allows political office holders and civil servants who constitute less than one percent of the population to continue to allocate 70 percent of the country’s resources to themselves.

“If the federal government could withdraw $12.4 billion from the foreign reserves to pay questionable external debts and subsidize the local bourgeoisie with intervention funds running to trillions of naira it cannot turn round to complain of lack of fund to fix collapsed social infrastructures, education, health transportation and agriculture and create jobs for our army of unemployed youths,” Falana said.

“The recovery of the stolen wealth of the nation from foreign and local thieves should be a collective battle while the fund recovered from corrupt public officers and their privies is spent on job creation and fixing of hospitals and schools as well as the provision of other social services.

Words on marble by Falana.

Those who ruined Nigeria should not be allowed to talk about how Nigeria should be fixed. They had their chance but scattered the entire system and made it work for only them while the masses suffered.

This is the status quo that PMB has aggressively altered and this is why many of the 1% who make up the elite are now clamouring for his removal.

THE SYSTEM NO LONGER FAVOURS THEM!!

SalamRushdie:


You are a smart man so I am sure you know the truth that Buhari can't win free and fair elections

You are not a smart man if you think BUHARI is like your GEJ because your comment also means GEJ planned to rig 2015 elections.

PMB is more noble than you and your entire ipobian republic

And this one of Kwankwaso's project, yet folks under him defect. If he cannot mange a single project, is it a nation. Nigerians, do not let kwankwaso use us for experiment

Lmao at kwankwasiyya as his project.

Kwankwaso is a radical Fulani Muslim and his cult mentality is not needed in Nigeria.
