Politics › Re: My Overseas Trips In Osun’s Interest – Aregbesola by Demdem(op): 8:19am On Sep 12, 2011
This should be of great interest to BEAF and his likes who are always critical about Aregbesola "frequent" travelling. grin grin grin
Politics › My Overseas Trips In Osun’s Interest – Aregbesola by Demdem(op): 8:17am On Sep 12, 2011
Governor Rauf Aregbesola has said his overseas trips since he assumed duties have been in the interest of the state and have never affected the running of the state negatively.

Speaking at the end of the activities marking the 20th anniversary of the state at the weekend in Osogbo, the governor said his detractors were making a mountain out of a mole hill. Aregbesola said he always ensured that his Deputy, Otunba Grace Titilayo Laoye-Tomori, held forth and performed state functions to his satisfaction whenever he was not around.

He said his travelling was on record and he would continue to meet people who could assist him in turning the fortune of the state around.
Aregbesola accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of spreading rumour of  his ill-health, saying he was hale and hearty and rumor mongers would be afflicted with the alleged disease.

“Having been defeated on that front, they started making issues out of my few travels. My travels are public and on records. The first was to the Borough of Southwark in the United Kingdom, purely on official assignment, to sign a memorandum of understanding with the Borough on behalf of councils in the state on areas of mutual understanding,” he said.
He said his second trip to Dubai was undertaken to attend the convocation of his daughter “from where I proceeded to India for medical check up.”


He reminded the gathering that he had made this known before travelling that after the exhaustion of the struggle for his mandate’s retrieval and the rigorous campaign for the April/May general election, that he needed to rest, which lasted for only one week. Aregbesola stated that his  trip to Dubai and India were carried out purely on his personal account while no state fund was involved, saying “anyone in doubt can check the records.”

He said: “My next travel was to China on state visit at the invitation of All China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU), the first to be extended to any state governor in Nigeria. This was facilitated by the executive secretary of Organisation of African Trade Union Unity (OATUU). Agreements were signed that would make Chinese firms to establish industries in Osun State and enable our state access official Chinese government assistance. The trip was a huge success.” Commenting on his last trip to Saudi Arabia for the lesser Hajj popularly called Umrah in Arabic, the governor told the gathering that it was also at his personal expense as it had been his practice for the past 12 years.

He described his critics (BEAF and CO) grin grin grin as jobless, disclosing that when he had a case in Abuja, the presiding magistrate granted him permission to perform the lesser Hajj and returned home to resume the case.“I leave those who engineered this wicked and malicious lie in the hand of God but I want them to know that they will also have what they wish for others. It is a divine principle that what you sow, you reap,” he declared.

Actually he did. He threatened that Nigeria would be ungovernable if anyone rigged elections.
Well, that translated to if he loses.
And here we are.
LIAR. Even if he did say it, why must the Retardeen sanction rigging?

[size=14pt]FG to establish space centre at UNIUYO [/size]
Friday, 09 September 2011

The Federal Government is planning to establish a space centre at the University of Uyo, Uyo, to aid marine research.


“We took a team of engineers to Russia and launched the two satellites. As a result of the feat of President Goodluck Jonathan within his first 100 days, Nigeria is able to rub shoulders with United States of America,” the minister pointed out.

What do you think?, I just feel that statement is insulting.
And I want to believe that your not a Nigerian, But if your, it mean that your an 1diot since your ruled by a fool( I didn't say that, Bakare did)
Well, to those of us who had envisage this failure called GEJ before the elections especially will not see the statement insulting (instead the truth) but those who still went ahead to vote GEJ and not PDP. I guess u fall in that latter category.
ndo, all will be well. just endure these 3+ yrs for now and hopefully u would have learnt ur lessons and u wont repeat ur mistakes again.
Politics › Re: Gej Launches Database To Trace Vehicles by Demdem(m): 9:04am On Sep 09, 2011
brainpulse:
All we need is a central database of all citizens and foreigners in the country and this will be updated with time accordingly. e.g: if Mr. abc is already captured in the central database and he buys a car this month and obtains a liscence, it will be captured for him- the car number,plate and driving liscence. This DB will also be use for election, state, education. It will be easy to trace. If the same Mr. abc is now having a PHD degree it will be updated, and if he packs to another house, the new street no will be updated for him. It is useless, and irrespossible for our government operating different databases. Thats why we say once your Leader is not exposed to new innovation in the world he will continue to award different contract for desame project.
i so much agree with your post. why do we have to have different databases for different reasons?
Going through my purse now and i realized that my valid national ID card still has my profession to be Student several years after leaving school. there should be a way of updating my staus in all areas.

Simply go to the FRSC and ask questions - it is a very simple thing to do.


grin grin grin grin indeed as if we all are not in Nigeria. We all know what is applicable here. Less than an hour ago i asked from a person that should know in ABUJA and his first response was like " back off, classified info for security reasons" grin grin grin
After much cajoling, he told me something similar to the below:

emmatok:
What is  all these notice about vehicle database.

The important thing is to link every drivers license to his/her  Vehicle/s  plate number(which is registered with engine and chases numbers).

So that the police, road safety e.t.c can easily identify a vehicle owner by looking at the plate number.

The current database does not  link drivers licence to his/her plate numbers.

In-fact most people without vehicles have drivers licence.

While some vehicle owners don't have drivers licence.

But the problem with Nigeria is enforcement and corruption.
Secondly, it amazes me seeing peeps being civil with that cursed Beaf. U guys seems not to know his modulus operandi. he is so dangerously daft.

^^^^^  grin grin grin u are not serious ooooo
jaguda:
Well, Demdem, guess u have to put up with a clueless and foolish President for the next 3 years?

Well, u are right for now. Quite a tangible number of Nigerians(except me becos i didnt vote him) actually put me into this mess and we all are living witnesses to his ineffectiveness and stupidity

and folks like u get upright and indignant when Pastor Bakare referred to Nigerians as FOOLS.

grin grin i wasnt never indignant about that statement from Bakare because i know i aint among the FOOLS that voted him into power. The FOOLS knows themselves. I resisted it but the majority prevailed. The FOOLS in this context are the likes of BEAF, SEUN and Co.

If u were so results oriented and wise, y are u not in Aso Rock, solving Nigeria's problems?

Th[b]at i am doing in my own little way where i am presently located. When its time to move to ASO ROCK i will. There is time for everything. However, GEJ requested for our votes because he thought he was ready and he promised not to fail us. Now its obvious to all that we have been deceived. this explains why peeps like me wont stop the insult till he re-traced back his steps (its possible)
[/b]
Afraid of being called a clueless and foolish too?

Not at all, when its my time i wont fail because there will be results on ground for all to see and there will be no need for that except for few which still is allowed cool cool

rasputinn:
Salami's hand are so soiled in corruption and Tinubu's bribes

Once again, show me where it was confirmed that Salami collected bribe from Tinubu. Are u saying that you are wiser and knows better than the panel that was set up to try him and didnt found him wanting in such? I tire oooo

See another link:

"When a motion was raised, because we were talking about jurisdiction, they went ahead to try him in a Lagos High Court. Of course, you know the influence of Tinubu in Lagos. I am not saying Tinubu interfered with the Judiciary. But I am saying that the influence of Tinubu in Lagos and the two of then are not political pals. But when the case went to the Court of Appeal, again we met Justice Salami, we met him. I am saying it clearly, Chidi, we met Justice Salami(emphasis). There was one woman again, Ogunbiyi, who also featured prominently in the tribunal at Ibadan. So, immediately we landed at the Court of Appeal, and we heard that Salami was there I just told our friend not to expect much. Bode George was a political prisoner; a victim of the viciousness of politics in Nigeria"

http://odili.net/news/source/2011/sep/7/508.html

The bolded is highly contradictory so i decided to go to the site u provided. However on sighting Babatope in that link making those comments i decided not to bother myself. Which Yoruba man will ever take the words of Ebenezer Babatope serious knowing fully well his antecedents especially doing the days of Abacha. Abegiii, Salami is much more credible than this Ijesha man. He is still licking his wounds after the credible loss of his party in osun state.
You can do better than this. beleive me when i said i will be the one to call for Salami's head if there are any minute facts that will suggest to me (even from a credible person) that he was bribed.  kiss kiss

Wasnt that what happened or u need a source to that also?
Dont be in a hurry to comment. He wasnt found guilty of receiving bribe.

Sahara Reporters is really distasteful and disgusting. Do they understand that they are trying to make money from other peoples sorrow? Its just wicked and totally evil.
I have never been a fan of Turai, but I really hate it that anyone should gleefully s[b]peculate in the press that she has ovarian cancer.[/b] In folklore, such behaviour is reserved for witches and wizards.
There should be red lines, Turai has a family and friends who would be violated by such a wicked invasion of their privacy.

Where are the morals of our nation going? embarassed
The same way they speculated about Umaru's health for years which later confirm to be true since the govt kept on deceiving us.
If truly Turai isnt feeling fine, i sincerely wish her a very Quick recovery. Sickness no good for body at all.

GEJ changing isnt dependent on criticisms but boils down to himself.

we will only try and suggest but it will be washed off under the guise that it isnt practicable since they have access to some info we dont have so why the heck should we even try in the first place. Lets all have the same level playing field and i am quite sure the solutions arent as difficult our leaders are portraying.

However, lets tackle corruption (let him start from himself and his household) and we all will see the wonderfull effect it will have in all segments of the economy either finance, education, infrastructure, health etc.

remark D:
Texasspeed, since I wasn’t talking to you, all I will say to you is that you should be the one to stfu and go do whatever it is you were doing before bothering to reply my post.

if all one does is to make empty criticisms, with no alternate ideas or suggestions – it just makes you look st.u.pid. All I am saying is to be constructive in your criticism, as opposed to just opposing and making empty criticisms of anything and everything someone says he’s done; (I hope no one looks up to you for anything then – would be sad )

I’m just regretting that people are not voicing out alternate ideas or solutions and what naught, or doing anything themselves to better the lives of even a single person in their community, or at least, even THINKING of what to do in that regard.
it just gets tiring and boring hearing criticisms after criticism after criticism on nairaland… abegi just back it up with something tangible – if you can.
Is that too much to ask? Maybe for texas speed it is, cause he's just an empty head. undecided
Actually, u should be the one to STFU. if GEJ doesnt know what to do and he needs our assistance then he should declassify all the so called classified information he has access to for us to proffer better and reasonable solutions his "fisherbrain" may not be able to comprehend. Better still, he should resign if he cant handle it.
My guts tells me he knows what to do but the BALLS to do such is what he lacks. Such a person we dont need as a leader.
We all are saying we have not seen any results so far as a result of his failures and u dont expect us to voice out. Abaaaa !!!!!

How come our leaders are so easily swayed to share Nigerian domestic affairs with the US Ambassadorhuh And why is Mrs Sanders the one interviewing people here and therehuh Too much poke-nose from Americans if you ask me.[/quote]I disagree with u. I dont need Sanders to tell that GEJ has a FAILED past. of cos he did especially as a governor in Bayelsa.
The only way to disprove this is to list out his achievements there with the huge resources given the state. However there is absolutely NONE. The only thing he achieved was basically "carrying every1 along". u know, paddy-paddy kind of shit.
