The director General "debt management"

The funding for the project was done by the Chinese Government and the Nigerian Government. The Federal government paid their own part. The Chinese government funded the project by loaning the Nigerian government. That was why the Debt management office was copied.

President Buhari should have invited Jonathan to the commissioning of the project because Jonathan initiated and paid in full for the project. The project was delayed so as to let Buhari take the accolades

This document is the evidence that Goodluck Jonathan paid in full the counterpart funding for the Rivers Airport in 2014.

How did they recognise his supporters among the voters? Are his supporters wearing aso-ebi today making it easy to identify them from the crowd? If the rerun were to be in Ede and he’s making this sort of allegation, you’d say it makes a bit of sense knowing most of Ede support him. But the elections are in Ife, Osogbo, Orolu. How did they specifically identify those who will vote for him? Did he already compile a list?

Politicians and lies sha! Already preparing the ground for things to hold on to in case he loses....

U nt making sense

Olusola Fabiyi, Abuja
The Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State. SenatorAdemola Adeleke, has described the ongoing rerun election in seven units in the state as a ‘coup ‘.
Adeleke, who spoke with our correspondent on the telephone, said that supporters of the PDP were being denied access to ballot papers in the governorship rerun election.

“What is happening in Osun State now is not an election. What we have is a coup. That is what we are witnessing now.
“Our supporters are being harassed and are not allowed to vote at all. Let the whole world know that this is not democracy, ” he said.

INEC on their twitter handle reacted to news about voters and observers being chased away by thugs in some units. In their tweet they promised to notify security operatives to take necessary action.

INEC Nigeria
@inecnigeria

INEC is disturbed about reports that accredited media and observers are being arrested or prevented from operating in some polling units. This is being taken up with the security agencies.
#OsunDecides2018

There was mild drama at Polling Unit 17, Ward 5, Adewale Street, Alekuwodo, Osogbo, when voters that came out to participate in the Osun State governorship rerun election refused to quit the queue in spite of a heavy downpour.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the election process started at 8 a.m. on Thursday but at around 9:12 a.m., there was heavy downpour which halted the process.

The sudden rainfall had everybody running for cover but voters already on the voting queue, who initially ran for cover, quickly returned when they noticed that others who refused to take cover had moved forward to replace them.

By the time the rain subsided, all the voters on the queue were already drenched.

The voting, however, continued at 9:30 a.m. when everyone (INEC staff, security, media men and others) had returned to their posts.
Earlier, some middle-aged men and an elderly woman who came with Permanent Voter Cards from another unit, had attempted to cast their votes but were disallowed by vigilant security and party agents.

News Release

Ademola Adeleke Did not Beg Omisore -Campaign Organisation

Our attention has been drawn to a fake picture of Senator Ademola Adeleke begging Senator Iyiola Omisore .We affirm that the picture is fake and doctored .

Senator Adeleke is busy with preparation for tommorow's poll.He is reaching out to leaders and voters across affected polling units. It is therefore false to claim the Governor-elect is begging around.

Our position is that Senator Adeleke won last Saturday poll with God and people and he will win finally tommorow with God and people.

We urge voters to troop out enmasse and re-confirm their support for Senator Adeleke as the Governor-elect.

Signed

Olawale Rasheed ,
Director ,Media & Publicity.

APC are only good in propaganda... It will shock them tomorrow when they lose

raumdeuter:
Did Omisore visit the Oluwos palace today or this Adeleke picture is an old one of when Omisore and Ademola visited Oluwo

This is an old picture..but some people have been spreading rumors about Adeleke prostrating to beg Omisore, whereas, he was only paying homage to Oluwo of Iwo land

We people of Osun say NO to a salary owing government ...

Senator Adeleke was pictured with Omisore as he prostrates before the Oluwo of Iwo land. Meanwhile rumours have been flying around about Adeleke prostrating to beg Omisore. This is actually the full picture. He was actually paying homage to the Oluwo of Iwo.

so sad.... I can't just imaging the mood in which his family will be right now....This man is the choir master in the church I attend here in ekiti...In fact I still saw him last Sunday carrying his son while singing. I will definitely argue with anyone that told me that i wont see this man again... RIP sir, God grant you eternal rest.

I applied for a south African visa back then in 2015, but it was rejected due to an outbreak of a disease in Nigeria then. They told me that they will contact me on when to collect my international passport back. Though they later called me to come back for it, but I have not been able to travel back to their embassy in Lagos due to other engagements I have. But I'm contemplating on traveling outside the country next year , which means I will need my international passport back. I don't want to apply for another international passport because I have travelled to a few countries before, and I have their visa stamped on my passport. Please I need help on how to retrieve the passport back,because I don't want to travel down to Lagos in vein. Thanks

The protracted strike at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, which invariably paralysed every academic activity on the campus since May 6, has turned a 300-level Mechanical Engineering student of the University, Olutoba Olayiwola to a manufacturer of soap.

Olayiwola, whom our reporter came across on Thursday in the Osogbo metropolis said the frustration and danger inherent in staying idle at home for months promptedhim to think outside the boxand went into manufacturing of dish washing soap.

According to him, the first phase of the strike, which spanned a period of 9 months from June 13, 2016till February 20, 2017 compelled him to start a thorough research for the technique of soap-making.

“I have learnt through my experience of life that learning does not end up in classroom, one must learn squarely, this is the mindsetthat propelled me to learn the science of soap-makingwhen academic activities came to a halt on our campus due to incessant strike.

“You know, I believe government and other stakeholders in the education sector do not know the serious danger embedded in idleness, especially for energetic youths like us, it exposes and pushes young people to all sorts of social vices, itis simply catastrophic.

“It is against this backdrop that I devised means of making good use of my precious time, and prepare my self for a better future, I believe my life must not be blindly tied to a frustrating system.

“The 9-month of stay-at-home order by our lecturers,between June 2016 and February 2017 afforded me the opportunity to embark on comprehensive research to acquire a distinct knowledge of soap-making at a research firm in Ibadan.

“Upon resumption in February this year, after spending 9 months at home, and with satisfactory knowledge of soap-making,I stumbled on a motivational book, titled” Rich Dad, Poor Dad, written by Robert T. Kiyosaki.

“Obviously, reading this book marked a turning point in my life, it ignited a profound zeal of entrepreneurship in me, which I transformed into reality during the on-going phase of strike that kick started on May 6”, Olayiwola stressed.

He described his product as distinctly creative, with addition of new adhesive like Aloe-vera.

“My product, which I called “Full Moon” is specifically conceptualised to give different feelings to dish washing soap,as it comes with Aloe-vera.

Olayiwola, however called on government to help and encourage indigenous manufacturing firms to grow, in order to strengthen the real sector of Nigerian economy, as he enjoined youths to be creative.
