Like owner of library like event ....Obasanjo thrives better in disorganization and chaos right from his days in the military

I just tire. At this high level with important guest no organisation

Sad. Imagine if there was a fire outbreak at that door. How will these important dignitaries escape

Very Disorganized Entrance arrangement for guest at the commissioning of OBJ Library
This is just a replica of how difficult it is to get anything done over in Nigeria, whether it is getting a job, a political office, get into a university, get a degree, giving birth in our hospital,travel by air, travel by road, go through our airport routine check, even collect salary and also collect pension. literally every tin . You fight to get it. Irrespective of how old you are. Even the old once have learnt over time that people don't care about them, so they have learnt to fight and struggle as well to survive-even when they are weak. Sad

MBBS,D.PATH,DC.PATH,FMC.PATH,MRC.PATH,FWACP ( 1929-1989)
Born on the 22nd of September,1929.From Emuado Ekpoma
*Had his primary Education at St.Mary's Catholic School, St John'( CMS) Ondo and Catholic school,Ekpoma,Edo.
* His post primary education at ICC,Benin and St.Patrick's college,Asaba,
* Tertiary Education at School of Agrik,Ibadan,School of medical technology,Ibadan,Post graduate in neuro-pathology,University of London.
*He was a member of the Constituent Assembly that Drafted the 1979 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria that have severally been amended to give us our current constitution.
*Lectured at Ahmadu Bello University,University of Ibadan and University of Benin. From 1974-1979, he was HOD of Pathology at the university of Benin.
* Had only N500 only in his account when he contested and won election as the governor of Bendel state in 1979 under the platform of Unity Party of Nigeria. He left office with his account less than N500.
* He said: "When you educate a child, you educate a nation. When you educate the body and mind you have an effective instrument for social and economic development. Education is the platform for progress. It is the foundation of life itself”
* Between October 1979 and March 1980, professor Alli’ administration established 80 new secondary school in the state in addition to 187 already in existence. Approval was also given for the establishment of 338 new secondary school in all part of the state in such a way that no pupil would thenceforth, travel more than five kilometers from his home to attend a secondary school.
* some local government in the state with just six secondary school before he was elected governor in 1979 got as many as 16 additional day secondary school in two years. Bomadi Local Government Area, which had only six secondary school for the period between 1979, got nine secondary schools within two years.
*Other areas, which had many educational institutions before 1979, got more secondary school to meet 100 per cent transition of pupils from primary to secondary schools. Ethiope Local Government Area for example, which had ten secondary schools before 1979, got additional 25 secondary schools´ Similary.Oredo Local Government Area which had 16 secondary Schools before 1979 had additional 40 day secondary schools. Etsako Local Government Area got additional 32 secondary schools, Ndokwa 31, Okpebho 32, Orhionmwon 43, Ovia 32, and Ughelli 39, during the first two years of Governor Alli's administration.
* The various communities, hitherto barred by government control measures from establishing their own secondary schools to supplement those of the government demonstrated their support for the leadership provided by governor Alli by building and donating blocks of classrooms to government. Therefore in less than three years, the number of secondary schools in the state rose from 187 in October 1979 to over 850 in 1983. School fees and entrance examinations to secondary schools were abolished with effect from October I, 1979. This made it possible for every pupil who had completed primary six to attend secondary school. All these were at a time when some state in Nigeria had less than 50 secondary schools charged high fees per session as in secondary schools and primary schools yet had problems with the payment of teachers' salaries.
It must be stressed, however that the rationale for the establishment of day secondary school was the need to place pupils in the secondary schools nearest to their homes, so that while prof. Alli government make a significant cut-back on student housing provision, enough ground is created for the release of resources to develop learning facilities and programmes and for pupils to socialize simultaneously in both school and domestic environment.
The growth in the number of secondary school in the state stimulates a corresponding growth in the num of tertiary educational institutions to train teachers urgently needed for the secondary school system. Four tertiary institutions for the training of NCE teachers were established in the state. This was in addition to the college of education, Abraka, which was already in existence thus bringing the number to five.
The financial generosity of governor Alli's administration to the course of education in the state was enormous. All students in the state’s colleges of Education were place on special bursary. Serving teachers admitted into any of the colleges, continued to receive their salaries in full while civil servants similarly admitted were placed on study leave with full pay. Other who was not in employment were given monthly allowance while in training. As govern Alli himself once remarked, this generous financial policy was to enable all those admitted into the colleges fend for their dependants and buy their books as well as essential equipment. Within three years, the first set of graduates from the four colleges of education, numbering 3,000 joined the NYSC programme.
In order to liberalise opportunities for tertiary education in the state the government of professor Alli went further to establish two new polytechnics at Ozoro and Ogwashi-Uku, in addition to the existing one at Auchi, five school of agriculture to offer OND and HND courses one school of forestry and a new university, Bendel state university now Ambrose Alli university Ekpoma, at the apex of these institutions of higher learning. “The educational programme of my government is a complete one starting from the primary level to the university level,” professor Alli once gladly recalled during the ceremonies marking the laying of the foundation stone and launching of the endowment fund for Bendel state university (Ambrose Alli University) in March 1982. The kernel of his philosophy of liberalised opportunity for the individual was embedded in the concluding part of his address on that occasion: “By the establishment of the Bendel state university {Ambrose Alli university}, we will ensure the development of intellectual capacities of individual to understand and appreciate their environment and the acquisition of both physical and intellectual skill which will enable individuals to develop into useful members of the community”. Governor Alli firmly believed that the development of intellectual capacities of individual’s capacities could promote a more reliable and enlightened public opinion, which could be used to plan for rapid social and economic development.
Professor Alli’s concept of liberalised opportunity for the individual was not confined to the educational sector alone. Services and drugs at state-owned hospital were free from October 1, 1979. More money was spent on the purchase of drug than ever before. The perennial problem of shortage of doctors, especially in the rural areas, was solved, while the hospitals recorded more patronage. In private hospitals and clinics, delivery charges high per person whereas in state-owned hospitals, all forms of medical care were free.
Furthermore, the payment of flat rate tax, which, hitherto, had been the greatest threat and source of defeat to the rural dwellers, was abolished. Flat rate tax had been used as a tool of political oppression in past civil regimes, but professor Alli abolished it to eliminate ones and for all, its use for negative ends

Do you know?

- That Alli donated his inheritance( Family Land) for the siting of Anbrose Alli University. He never received a dime for all that wide expanse of land. His children are not asking for anything either on the land.
- Alli's family have not and are not enjoying anything or privilege from Edo and Delta states government.
- Edo state is denying the widow of Alli her entitlements as a retired midwife in the state service.
_ Alli was convicted on trump up charges by the northern oligarch via Buhari not because he stole a dime but because he initiated the crusade in court for Resource control. Buhari had to issue 3 different Decrees to nail him. No money was ever traced to his account.
- Do you know that Alli won a case against the Yoruba states to give us our share of the assets of the old western region. Till date,no subsequent Edo governor has deemed it fit to pursue the enforcement of this judgement.
Professor Alli passed away at LUTH on 22/09/89 his 60th birthday, before his death he was married and has four children.

This is a front page material, fight with sahara reporter at your own peri....

Honestly. It's just sad that every aspect of our society has been compromise- work, economy, religion, politics, tribe, police, food, etc . Everything - even what we read and watch. I will just advise Buhari to stop this corruption because it looks as if it has become part of our daily life and cannot be removed from us

From today henceforth I will never believe any police report I see in any TV station or read in any newspaper in Nigeria. What.... this is bad.

Please watch Association of Nigerian journalist how they collect bribe from Lagos police commissioner to report lies on newspapers. This is how they report lies on catching kidnappers that they didn't even catch at all..

True

KINGinVAHALA:
I won't say they didn't know, they knew but those saddled with the responsibility of blowing loud the whistle kept quiet probably maybe the sharing of the illegal funds was also filling their pockets. But there is a new sheriff that doesn't give a damn about these sin-nators, so its normal to see lot of persons voicing it out right now because the new sheriff has positively led by example in this aspect.





Don't forget to vote me, KINGinVAHALA, as Mr Nairaland 2016!

Waoh. No hope for change

KINGinVAHALA:
Yeah, I know this man, Tunji abayomi, on TV though, he is one hell of an outspoken and fearless lawyer who is always objective and on point with his submission. He is always a darling to watch on NTA Tuesday live with Cyril stober as host. Its never a dull moment with Tunji Abayomi

And for our Sin-nators, evils always doesn't last forever!

But how come nobody knew all this years this constituency projects money was illegal?

But how come nobody knew all this years this constituency projects money was illegal?

lawyer/Dr Tunji Abayomi reveal that it's illegal for Senators to be given money to carry out/ execute projects in their constituency. This constituency projects millions is one of the main reason many kill to become senators in Nigeria. The money is conered and pocketed and use to recoup election expenses. But Dr Tunji Abayomi has blown the illegality of it on national TV, that it's not in the constitution for senators to execute projects. As a legislator your duty solely is to make laws and not be a contractor. With this revelation, a lot of people will be discourage to becoming a senator hence forth as that free money from constituency project will not be given out again to senators. Kudos Abayomi for educating us.

I watched it and I became convinced that we will be extremely difficult for us to find political solutions to our national problem as a people.

See how they are praising Abacha. This is the same way they praised goodluck. And it's the same way they are praising Buhari again. History just keep repeating itself in nigeria

At this time there was no goods will akpabio, there was no alimodu sheriff, there was no amaechi or elrufai or even goodluck Jonathan. There was not even tompolo or asari .
But we had characters who were worst than these people in the political space, eating from left and right of the divide.

Same notable faces you will find in our politics today shouting the same change slogan. Nigerians will continue to be gullible till the end of time.

Cold lying publicly. I guess he will be ashamed now that it's public knowledge that he received money
