It is quite possible, our neighbors Ghana seemingly average team had to be very unlucky not to qualify for the semifinals in south africa 2010. They lost via penalties to a team they outplayed.

Nevertheless, the immediate task is to qualify for the world cup.

Ironically, the more PDP awaits APC implosion, the more the PDP ship sinks.

There was a time Adedibu also had an "election winning machinery" for Oyo State, the Saraki dynasty is not as powerful as perceived.

it is a dynasty that will not survive the next few years

Something is fishy !

The whole press briefing looks like a stage managed episode that was badly done.

Good one ! Longest runaway in Nigeria shows the project is a visionary one.

Over 50% completion also shows a lot of work has been done.

Which kind person go dey fry akara by 3:00am? Abegi, the truth is not yet out.

TechWalker007: There's a difference in asking criminals to vote for you and voting for criminals!

Sincerely, I do not believe in APC but if they can get into power, we should be expecting them to probe and prosecute all corrupt current and former politicians. (APC, PDP or any other party).
But if you say they are corrupt and that we should vote for change, how can you then use the same corrupt people to form your core?
And then hand over your state structure to them.

I cannot be deceived!

The situation is not analogous to voting criminals

Lobbying 7 state governors to join their fold is in the best interest of the party, the new entrants will be guided by the parties guidelines.

The stiffer the opposition, the more likely the incumbent will be on his/her toes to perform.

We will gradually get to the era where the electorates will be sophisticated to identify change and vote for it.

Simply preaching change and throwing very fresh faces will hardly fly with the core nigerian electorates, it is an idealistic stand.

Efcc is firing from all cylinders but missing target

TechWalker007: This is why Nigeria will never will hardly change.

You cannot claim someone is a thief and then ask him to join you in delivering justice.

it goes beyond the simplistic perspective you want to take.

Have you seen a politician while campaigning for a seat saying something like 'if you are a criminal or a thief or scammer do not vote for me'.

A politician needs the support and vote of all (criminals inclusive), it is how he manages the criminal /thief/scammer when he finally gets to the seat.

Ah Ah ! Micro chips by Willy Willy.

What a Technocrat !

greatgod2012: But why is APC always interested in getting the deserted PDP members, can't they perform without former PDP members. How are we sure they wouldn't copy PDP's agenda.

Well, it is well.

Politics is a game of numbers. If Deserted PDP members are suspected to have throngs of supporters, such members are tactically embraced, how the APC will manage such new entrants is the true test.

There is also the psychological blow from APC to the decampees former party, (PDP), when it "snatches" such members.

There is an overdramatisation with funke's use of english in some of her movies that makes her very funny and her intention evident even to the kids.
Zebrudaya alias 430 had used such line of comedy.

I think the writer is trying to kill a fly with a gun.

I will be more concerned allowing my kids to see hollywood movies with gun blazing and violence centric

@OP, if i am to indulge you

You claim Ondo state is the first line of defence. Does it make sense to establish a capital along the first line of defence?

Fayemi distributing cheques for community development projects to community stakeholders

Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi has presented cheques worth N238 million (Two Hundred and Thirty-Eight Million Naira) to 26 communities in the State for Community Development Projects of the State Community and Social Development Agency (EKSCDA).

Fayemi, who said that through the Community Development Plan, 26 communities would be executing a minimum of three micro community development projects, expressed optimism that the projects would further enhance community development drives even as about 78 projects with direct impact on the people would be financed through the initiative.

atlwireles: Are you high on some cheap Ekiti Indian hemp or what Mind yourself and sell your rotten products to your fellow APC e-rats

You either open a thread on uduaghwan achievements or keep shut.

I wont entertain you any further.

Kingspin: That is one of the worst mistake in the Nigeria history a situation where states are created for political purposes rather than economic buoyant and independent. When i tell people that most state in Nigeria are 'lazy' everything is share the money across board and the question i always ask is what have you done sitting down in your state only to be receiving huge amount of money every month from somewhere you have not be to - This is madness. Every state should produce and feed their people that is true federalism. If you have food or palm oil or cocoa, entrepreneurs or any thing massively bring it out nationally. This issue of one Nigeria with oil in our mind should stop for true federal system. We cant chop books but need development.

When Fayemi came in on Otober 16, 2010, the state IGR was 106 million, in three years it is averaging 1.6billion naira.

That is some whopping 1,500% increase in the IGR.

Read this:

Dr. Kayode Fayemi kept critics to silence on his industrialization revampment when he brought back to life the abandoned and snake habituated Ikogosi tourism hub, the transformation of the former Odua Textiles into Odua Skill Acquisition Centre; Commencement of mining activities by the Fountain Solid Minerals Company in Itawure, Orin, Isan and Ijero; Establishment of Starch/Fructose Processing Factory in the State; Commencement of Kaolin Exploration in Isan-Ekiti; Establishment of Artisan Village; Establishment of Cement Depot by Aliko Dangote; Establishment of Ceramic Tiles and Sanitary Ware Industry; Establishment of Alpha Rolling Mill; Establishment of Computer Accessories and Electronic Market; Establishment of Ekiti Shopping Mall (Shoprite) among others.

atlwireles: One of the reason, I like Nairaland, people are compelled to post pictures of their so called achievement. I hereby forgive and offer a public apology to the chairman of Ughelli south local government area. For all the insults and arguments, we have had together.You have done well compared to this pictures from Ekiti state.

If i tell you to post pictures of achievements of Delta state governor with six(6) times the budget of Ekiti state and has been governor for close to 7 years, you will chicken out.

Shove your delta state to your asss.

smartchoice: and will generate the tens of billions about to be wasted?

I can go hard on you, but i want to move you up to a sensible level of debate.

N.B the pictures i have posted are not the total reflection of the development in the states

there are other great stuffs mentioned in the opening post

The state govt is not spending "tens of billions" in building a govt. house, the current govt house was designed as a hotel, and has certain limitations. the current govt house when returned to the original functionality ,which is a hotel will generate more revenue to the state in a short while.The state govt has increased its monthly Internally Generated Revenue from 106million to over 1 billion naira in less than 3 years

Prove that the state is spending tens of billions to build a govt. house.

Promhize: Who told u am from the east. Your pictures are just funny, re-painted schools as achievement

Call it whatever you like, those projects are only very few of the many executed by the administration in less than 3 years. Some of the pictures were taken over a year ago.

section of schools snapshots

smartchoice:
REALLY THAT'S BRILLIANT OF YOU....SO YOU CAN BORROW TO BUILD A NEEDLESS GOVT HOUSE ABI?

I am aware the current govt. house will be turned to a hotel. That hotel has a revenue generation capacity for your state.

some more schools

smartchoice: Where serious Govs are building MEGA schools and using economies of scales you people are busy putting roofs over almost collapsed structures! Mental indolence!

In 3.5 years of Oni;s administration, he built no mega school, Shame on him . He also left the available ones to rot.

If the governor start building mega school, people like you will start ranting "why is he not renovating the schools ?"

By the way,current Ondo state govt admin. has been there for five years and it is at least 4 times richer than Ekiti state how many mega schools has it built now? SMH

more pix of schools from outside

snapshots of some sections of the school

more schools

a part pix of the schools renovated

smartchoice: now that your photo shop engineer has stepped up his game please show us the associated costs cos all we hear is rehabilitation and rehabilitation and since you have deliberately decided to inflict a partial amnesia upon yourself by displaying small portions of roads built by previous administrations that have gone bad has your ORIGINAL project ideas please avail us of the associated costs that justifies 38billion naira borrowed and the State allocation for 3 years!

Please, i absolutely have no business with you and your jaundiced view, Get over the sacking of Oni's administration.,at least Oni was in govt for almost 3.5years, you can show the pix of what he did on a different thread

The Governor launched a scheme called ORASE (Operation renovate all schools in Ekiti state)'

From the report, all the 183 high schools in the state were renovated).


I have a few snapshots of some of the schools renovated
