₦airaland Forum

Gbawe: It looks as if they have started believing their own lies that Igbos are only in Lagos and nowhere else in the SW. Personally, I hope these ethnic jingoists, as someone suggested earlier, can be 'quarantined' so that a modicum of sanity can return to Nairaland. This is the politics forum yet everything is now bogged down by bigotry and picture-spamming idiocy. this is why intelligent and interesting posters have left and are staying away.

@Post. Tragic event for shop owners and traders who have suffered losses. Django, hope no one died or was seriously hurt?

Very serious problem indeed. Our brothers only need to hear 'market' and they instantly have er.ection. Igbo people wetin na ?

I smell another plan by Tinubu & Partners UnLimited to bulldoze the market and replace it with a mega shopping center like they did at Tejuosho

Did you see any black people there ? Nah! We aren't crazy

Awon eranko jatijati. They turned a beautiful place into a war zone.

I just shudder to think how osun state will have been if victory had gone the other way. Death and destruction with fires still burning all over I am sure. But God did not deliver my people to violence. Praise be to God.
Congratulations to the best dancer and masquerade in Osun state for your victory. May your moves remain blessed and more anointing to the Alarinjo Performing Company. And to the loser from Pakurumo Dance Performers take heart the beat goes on

myspnigeria: Maybe u intentionally left this out. Just maybe ====>>>>> One of Aregbe's numerous new schools in Atakumosa west...Why r d students on d floor

Simple , thed did not vote for ACN/APC
Wicked party

MymothersKeeper: It is clear that Rauf wants a future and wants to lead Osun forward,[i][b] [size=16pt]many Osun kids were illiterate in Yoruba speaking primary school [/size][size=8pt][/size][/b[/i]]before. Rauf destroyed all those nonsense schools and merged them into about 10 giant schools with adequate teachers who rehabilitated many of them. Within 4 years he made a huge difference. There is not much difference between those new schools and privates schools.
Omisore clearly wants to loot and spoil Osun his main purpose is to steal , if anyone is too blind to see that , mo sorry fun iya anybody t'oba vote omisore

God will judge you by your words. How many members of our family were illiterate before your tin god rescued them ? How much does he pay you to tell these lies. Believe me you can't buy your way out of hell.,; but it will be too late for you to find out.

Gbawe: Felifeli, why do you hate Ogbeni so much? As far as I know, you have hated him from the day he was sworn in and you have opposed all Aregbesola's initiatives and policies whether good or bad. It can't be about politics and the leadership of Osun alone. There appears to be another reason, perhaps a personal one, for you.

You are both right and wrong Bros Gbawe. As a matter of fact I didn't know the man existed until the future result of his education policies became foreseeable. Looking deeper afterwards into his other projects and their motives one sees a hopeless megalomaniac whose accomplishments exist only in the mass media. He is a dangerous hoodwinker and at best a headless monkey dancing to the tune of his master in Bourdillon Road. A lot of people and even he himself loved to present him as a 'progressive' , but looking closer one would see that they are all his cohorts or people who benefit directly from his government. The recent re-association with Oyinlola a few days ago will confirm that the man is an insincere trickster with no healthy conviction at all. He is purely motivated by a desperate need to be in control at whatever cost. I don't give a damn whether he wins or lose because even though I am from Osun State I rarely have anything that takes me there other than the fortunately rare burial ceremonies. I would rather have someone more transparent with his motives and convictions though. I don't hate him as a person because I have never met him and have no wish to ; I only hate his posturings . Luckily the f00l does not feed me.

Evergreeen123: You are insane. It is very obvious that you do not know Araba Ifayemi Elebuibon.

Araba Ifayemi should be apolitical. I am of the opinion that religous leaders: Christian, Moslem and Traditionalist ought to extricate themselves from politics but when your worthless president was using the picture of himself kneeling before Pastor Adeboye for campaign did you call Adeboye a fake pastor then?

It is you that is insane . Where did you find me say anything about Pastor Adeboye ? Stop manufacturing things that don't exist in your head f00l

Fake babalawo. If I was a registered voter I will vote Omisore ... even though he is not better. Both of them are nonsense candidates but one is a better nonsense

LOL

whitecat007: I see ibo bastard products of ewure and obuko!

Well done. Continue to see ibo everywhere. Soon they will take you away to Yaba-Left. Pele

Sibrah: Papa-Decieving-Pikin should be more concerned about containing Ebola outbreak. If the Ebola outbreak is continually handled with the Papa-Deceiving-Pikin attitude, then I pity the K***** Clique cos it will mean Nigerians who are seeing signs of a end to the leadership failure in a matter of few weeks coming out to vent their feeling on the 'Papas' who have been 'Decieving Pikin' they are supposed to protect.
Keep clowning online . . .

Ok a ya yin lenu

I have since given APC up as a serious political party and I always laugh when they call themselves progressives. These people are a collection of the most backward elements in the country. They are just a bunch of political hoodwinkers who will soon find they are deceiving nobody but themselves. I will go straight to the point- no long epistle. The result of the elections in Ondo and Ekiti should have taught them a useful lesson on political campaigns ,but like old f00ls they keep doing the same thing the same way and hoping to get a different result. Alas they will lose Osun again which will be a predictable disaster.Compared to PDP it is clearly visible that APC are like mere artisans like carpenters and fridge repairers pitting skills against professionals in the business. They believe in noisemaking and violence. While APC as usual is spending its money organising large rallies to entertain the entire state and the entire world, PDP is silently spending their money where it matters - secretly purchasing alliances. It is sad but Aregbesola will lose and I predict at the end of the entire elections in 2015 , the only SW state that APC will be left with will be Lagos, and I am being generous. My sorrow for Aregbesola though is that he is soon to be battling for his freedom , because we the people of Osun state will examine all the books, as well as his accounts and of his cohorts. We hope that he has not been using state money to run his funny rallies, else he will spend the rest of his life in prison, I swear.

lakeside025: These allegations can't stop him from ruling us again, The masses nd even the workers hve already choosed aregbe till 2018. I will advice omisore to contest for chairman seat for ife central maybe he cn win if he's broke.

Which masses ? Continue to fvck yourself as he dey sweet you so

MOD PLS TAKE THIS PICTURES DOWN BEFORE A FOREIGNER SEES THIS AND THINKS THE REST OF NIGERIANS LIVE LIKE THIS.

AM SURE THE PERSON THAT POSITED THAT NIGERIANS LIVES ON LESS THAN ONE DOLLAR DAILY GOT HIS ANALYSIS FROM OSHUN STATE.

Idi0t , Some of those houses have been built before my grandfather was born and when your grandfathers were still covering their bodies with banana leaf

adebisicutie: In 2days you'll realize that Osun is very different

Both states share border by the way.

caseless: Sharap, loose-head! Even pdp sef knw say d remaining are there to swell d number, na only apc get ground and is contesting.

Look you don't have to insult me becasue your party is going to lose you hear ?

Out of 20 parties taking part in election why is it only APC that is obsessed with the possibility that there will be rigging ? Aregbesola got present mandate through law court and I predict he will have to do that again this time after another 3 1/2 years in the cooler. PDP will win , God has already said so. Let APC cry from top of Kilimanjaro , the only thing for them is to go to court.

tos4u: I think this Aregbesola will likely win this Osun state election this saturday, he is indeed pulling crowd here

Pulling crowd is all he will achieve. he will lose election . He is gone .

Neyoor: don't be a coward. who will loose the election?[color=#006600][/color]

I call you ? Why you dey fear ?

I saw him yesterday at the election stakeholders meeting with INEC and Security. The man's body language showed how nervous he was , and he was only just trying to remain sane all through. In fact at a point he looked ready to fly around the venue. Spiritually I saw a man who is about to be befallen by a catastrophic calamity and I could only feel so sorry for him. It is already written in heaven though that he will lose the election , nothing he can do about it. Sorry sir.

Johnnyessence: Governor of the state of Osun, Ogbeni Rauf
Aregbesola on Wednesday evening said should
anything happen to any member of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun ahead of
the August 9 election, the Minister of State,
Defence, Mr. Musiliu Obanikoro, should be held
responsible.
The governor, at the launch of the students’
smart identity card at Salvation Army Middle
School in Alekuwodo noted that it is on good
authority that Obanikoro in conjunction with
the Police Affairs Minister, Mr. Jelil Adesiyan
have instructed security personnel to shoot and
kill two of APC members.
He charged security agents to play by the
rules, saying with what happened at the Nelson
Mandela Freedom Park Monday morning, where
people who were supposed to campaign for
APC were turned back by security agents while
same security agents allowed People’s
Democratic Party (PDP) campaign in
Alekuwodo in Osogbo.
Aregbesola questioned what Musiliu Obanikoro
is doing in Osun; noting that members of APC
have been told to be law-abiding but with the
recent provocation, people when pushed to the
wall will react.
He said, “How could a party like the PDP be
this desperate, Obanikoro with Jelili Adesiyan
told the security agents that by the time two
members of the APC are shot at and killed by
the police, other members will learn from it,
and with that the stiff resistance of APC will be
destroyed.
“We want to use this medium to appeal to our
security agencies not to allow themselves to
be used by these PDP candidate and the two
ministers whose party before this
administration had been terrorising the good
people of our state.
“I am using this medium to tell the security
operatives that Osun people are law-abiding
people, they have always been contributing to
the payment of your salaries and you are not
supposed to harass them with the guns which
were bought for you with tax money”. The
governor told people who witnessed the
launch.
On the smart Identity card for students, the
governor noted that information
Communication Technology is among other
promising paths his administration has chosen
to tread in the march towards realising the
state’s development dream.
With the launch of this smart identity card,
Osun becomes the first state in Nigeria to
provide it’s students with a card that contains
all information that may be required on the
student.
Aregbesola held that in the history of human
inventions, there are not too many that are as
useful as ICT in terms of its efficiency and
effectiveness at providing solutions to human
problems.
He stressed that ICT is the solution that his
administration has embraced in order to solve
and ease the problems of public administration
in the state.
The Osun Student Smart ID card will have all
the biometric, personalised identifying features
of the workers’ smart ID cards but without the
ATM enablement.
With the card, each student is a uniquely
identifiable individual that cannot be mistaken
for another person. With it, government can
identify all the genuine students in all the
public schools, and have access to their
information at the push of a button.
Aregbesola said the O’MEALS and other
supplies to pupils will be checked off through
this smart card, adding that it will give
government the exact number of beneficiaries
and eliminate fraud and accounting error of any
type.
According to the governor, “We have applied it
to our revenue collection and tax
administration which gives us a good results,
immediately we deployed it to our revenue
collection system, our internally generated
revenue jumped by 100 per cent from N300
million to N600 million.
”We have deployed it to our salaries and
pensions payment system, with very happy
results for all. It has helped eliminated
situations where our hard-working civil
servants are short-changed in the payment of
money due to them.
“In a similar vein, we have applied it to our
pensions system in a manner that makes it
possible to eliminate the stress and troubles
that our retired elderly citizens are subjected
to”. The governor noted.
Aregbesola pointed out that the technology has
removes the usually untoward intervention of
intermediaries in payment to workers and
pensioners that often makes underhand
dealings and cheating possible.
He also added that government has recently
applied ICT to the identity system of all his
workers in Osun, saying it is the same scheme
that is being extended now to the students.
Aregbesola revealed that, “with the new ID
card, our workers now have a small smart card
that can identify them as authentic Osun
workers without the possibility of
impersonation.
“The same small smart card enables them to
cash money at the automated teller machines
(ATMs) as well as gives them the capacity to
cash up to 20 per cent of their salaries before
they are paid.
“The card eliminates for all time the possibility
of ghosts rising up from their graves to collect
salaries and pensions in Osun”. The governor
told the audience.
Speaking earlier, the Deputy governor, Osun,
Madam Titilayo Laoye-Tomori who also
doubles as the Commissioner for education
noted ICT is the solution that Aregbesola led
administration has embraced thus making
governance easy and productive in the state.
“We cannot but continue to pray for the
governor for what he has done in the state.
This is governor who is committed to the
development of education. Presently, this
administration is feeding close to 300,000
elementary pupils among others.
“With this innovation now Osun becomes the
first state with this kind of identity card. Every
information needed on each pupils is contained
in the card”. The deputy governor averred.
The Group Managing Director, Chams PLC , Mr.
Charles Aladekomo in his remarks commended
the governor for building of the ultra-modern
schools and developmental stride in the
education sector in the state.
He said,” I am proud and astonished that Osun
is feeding pupils of elementary schools, this is
a very serious business, it will gladdens me
more if we have other state governments
tapping into feeding pupils.
“What we are doing here is the first of its kind,
this is more than an identity card because we
have their full details and their family trees. It
is with this that government will be able to
plan for them.
“This will also afford the government of Osun
the opportunity to plan it’s education as it
affects student and education”. The Chams
boss emphasised. www.oranmiyan.org/2014/08/07/hold-obanikoro-responsible%e2%80%8be-death-apc-members-osun-aregbesola%e2%80%8b/

OtunbaJega: AFTERMATH OF THE HEAVY SECURITY PRESENCE AT THE FREEDOM PARK, OSOGBO:

Osun Workers Adopt Aregbesola

Aregbesola addressing Osun State workers.

The workers marched to the Governor's house after they were stopped from using the state freedom park by soldiers.

When they came out with lies about Osun workers not supporting our government, my response has always been that of mute indifference because I know at the appropriate time truth will prevail. Despite a calculated attempt to frustrate the workers' resolve to declare support for their own by making the Mandela Freedom Park inaccessible, they still made history by going ahead with the endorsement against all odds.

It is only an enemy of progress that will not see anything good in what Rauf is doing in the state of Osun. The good people of Osun have spoken. What else will they hold on to? It is clear beyond reasonable doubt that Rauf is coasting home to victory. If they like let them bring a whole battalion here, we have resolved not to go back to the era of savagery. Aregbesola's victory is a done deal. 4+4=8. Believe!

State workers endorse governor ?!!!
Laugh wan kill me o. Wetin you wan make dem do ?
These people are endorsing their salary o !

MyPWisINCORRECT: This guy face hard sha!!

The irony is that while you lvnatics are on NL screaming about how the world is looking at Nigeria , is it not now clear to you that the world has no idea where Nigeria is ?

igbonla: Not sure why some folks are replying the attacks on Ibadan city, thought it was said never to argue with certain kinds of people lest they drag you down to their level and defeat you.

Red roof or red hut is immaterial, every city and every people have their peculiarities; Nigeria will be greater and better when we learn to appreciate and value our diversity.

May God heal our land and rescue us from self destruction.

Don't mind them o. It is these same frustrated half-literates who change their name to foreign name so that they can appear educated. And they destroy all that their parents have worked to build because it is not modern like the pictures of New York they see on television . Confused people whose children will grow up not knowing where they have come from or where they should be going. These are the Black man's burden.


Having never stepped out of the country before they dont know that there are entire villages in UK and all over Europe for example where the houses are still preserved in mud bricks and thatch roofs from as long as 500 years and even more . Half education is a dangerous thing
