I'll engage you because you are not like other Seyi's praise singers that'll tag anybody criticizing him a wailer and opposition. Do you know why most police stations are under lock and key in Ibadan? It's due to Seyi's demeanor towards those hoodlums that roasted those policemen at Iwo rd and his comment on the incident that policemen should stand down even in the face of attack and provocation by hoodlums. Though the policemen have so many excesses but a governor taking side with hoodlums is wrong in all shades. It's blown all over his face now because he knows he has no moral standing to ask those guys to be back on the streets.
As for the vehicles he is buying for the police, it should be a good step but it's not telling on security of lives and properties of people in Oyo state. Those cars have become tools of extortion by police. Honestly, Seyi needs to buckle up, otherwise his term would be a setback in the state which we all don't pray for. We need him to perform and lift the state up not some achievements you only see on internet.
Lastly, the monster he's making in Auxiliary, I pray doesn't consume him

@ happney65, why don't you mention the awful conditions of public schools in Oyo state right now

ekestic1976:
Continue to deceive yourself, so gbo?

ekestic1976:
Name ONE! Just one o. I've been living in Ibadan since 1977. So you like the way Dugbe is? You like Apata, Challenge and Iwo Road? Where's Business District in Ibadan? Keke and Okada and Micra and street traders have taken over. One year is too much to straighten Ibadan, especially for a man who has been running for Governor for a long time. Believe it or not, I voted for Seyi but he don fall my hand.

Those his supporters are the one reinforcing his and are preventing him from sitting up and get a grip of government.
Everybody here has resorted to disobeying traffic, hoodlums are now the new king of the jungle.
Bodija Ojurin right now. Chaos everywhere. Nobody to restore order

hannysur8:
Seyi is only the best Governor on social media not in real life, nothing good has changed since he assume office as the Governor of my dear state.

fullblast:
Can you imagine this Alejo?... I'm sure you are not an enemy of progress.
This fast car is a total reflection of commuter behavior in IB.
If your micra is slow, patronage will take a nose dive. In fact, I just took delivery of one waiting to go to the painter's soonest.

Iamgrey5:
No problem Bros.

Iamgrey5:
Lol. I am currently in ibadan myself but I live a quiet lifestyle.

Iamgrey5:
You maybe right sha

nedekid:
Lol, I think those Nissan micra got common in IB from IITA importing alot of them in the early 90ties.
Most are ex IITA utility cars.

Iamgrey5:
of course on social life Lagos is number one in Africa

That's why anyone that wants to succeed in the entertainment industry in Nigeria always makes Lagos his or her home or second home.

Ibadan is not really a city for those that enjoys a robust social life.

Okuda:
where are the investments?

Ibeme:
When you threaten to sue these liars, they start telling the truth

Shame on any stüpid grown man that falls for Newsmax and OANN lies

We Wrote Exam Questions On Blackboards To Protest Unpaid Grants For Oyo Schools- NUT

The Oyo State chapter of the Nigerian Union of Teachers, NUT, on Monday said examination questions for pupils were written on blackboards because the state government had yet to give primary schools across the state running grants.

The union said primary schools had not received grants for two consecutive terms. It added that secondary schools had not received grants for the just concluded first term and that they were paid half of the grants due to them for the previous term.

This development, the union said necessitated the writing of examination questions on the board for pupils during their first term examination.

The union, which spoke through the National Editor of its internal journal, Comrade Seye Obadina, on a radio programme in Ibadan, the state capital, urged the state government to execute its free education policy.

Reacting to the rumour that examination questions were written on the board for pupils, the NUT scribe said, “It is true. The primary schools have yet to be paid for the second term of last session and for the just concluded first term. You will recall that the third term was cancelled because of coronavirus.

"As for the secondary schools, they were paid half for the last term and have yet to be paid for the just concluded term. The debt incurred by the heads of schools for last term has yet to be settled. The teachers had to write the questions on the board in protest.

“I need to make some clarifications. It is the responsibility of the local government to pay primary schools. Maybe the challenges confronting the local government are causing the delay in the payment.

“I must tell you this government is doing its best. I am a national officer of NUT, I can tell you that if you compare Oyo State with other states, (you will realise that) Governor Seyi Makinde is really trying. We are trying to see the governor because once we have an audience with him, we know this problem will be resolved.”

When asked if the NUT has held any meeting with the state government officials on the matter, he said, “We have met with the commissioner for education, the head of service and SUBEB (State Universal Basic Education Board) chairman.”

Amidst the surge in coronavirus cases across the world, Obadina said it was not advisable to close schools in the state as necessary measures were already in place to check the spread of the virus.

@Raumdeuter

Big man

this is what we trying to explain too you the other day.

RichDad1:
That road is a FG project and not connected with Seyi Makinde’s performance.

mywells:
I left Ibadan since 1999,the way i left it thats the way i meet it two month ago,ososami,apata,odo ona to mention few,its a ghost town at night.nothing has change in that state of oyo.

Lovinghauwa:
This rift will not pass the fact that he refused to give them unhindered access to the state treasury, na money issue. There was a video of one of them that surfaced online where he was lamenting seriously

spinna:
God bless this governor..Ibadan Iseyin road is now smooth lika a babys bum bum. I was just smiling when i passed the road.

seunmsg:
Now I understand why Ladoja is now romancing Tinubu. Makinde don dey do dem shege. Our political elites don’t learn from the mistakes of others. Once they get into office, they immediately get power drunk and start believing in their own invincibility forgetting it was a coalition of political power brokers that brought them into office.

If Makinde is not careful, he would end up a one term governor. He’s barely over a year in office and he’s already having issues with those that worked tirelessly for him to win. If things continue like this, he won’t survive what they will throw at him in 2023.

budaatum:
I wonder how you could ignore Comey instigating an investigation into Hillary a couple of weeks before the election to claim Sanders was the reason she lost.

Gops tried the same with Hunter Biden's laptop but it thankfully failed this time.

raumdeuter:
Simple. No need to twist to deny the obvious or justify it.

All parties are not perfect and admitting the wrongdoing of your side while still supporting them is not a wrong thing

I support the Republican party but will not say everything they have done is right or ethical

In 2016 the Republicans did not take Trump serious until the primaries were almost midway and the only options left at that point was to rig him out or disqualify him. Which they knew will be undemocratic.

I am sure by the election day many Republicans were hoping Hillary wins just to say they followed the democratic process but lost. None of the Bush campaigned for or voted Trump. Basically none of the former GOP presidents or even previous presidential candidates openly supported him
