Olayinka Olayanju.(rtd) has declared that Ibarapaland is safe and free of killer herdsmen and kidnappers. The Commandant, who stated this in a statement made available in Ibadan, said that he will volunteer to lead anyone who is interested in taking a tour of parts of Ibarapaland earlier hit by herders/farmers crisis. He also denounced some audio and video posts in the social media, which tend to raise what he called "clearly unfounded alarms" about the Ibarapa security situation, saying that he has been moving in and out of the area for days now. According to him, farmers and the law- abiding people in the area are going about their businesses without molestation. The statement read: "Anyone desirous of finding out the truth about the security situation in Ibarapaland contrary to the video/ audio being circulated in various forum can key into this opportunity. "I will personally provide escorts to and from Ibadan to Igangan general areas anytime this week.

"I am in Aiyete and I 've been moving around Ibarapaland freely, no one has reported any adverse security issue to me apart from isolated case involving a fulani mansaid to have been killed in his house in a remote village around Eruwa in Ibarapa East on Saturday, by yet to be identified assailants. No security challenges observed in Ibarapa Central and North contrary to rumours been peddled. "We are fully on the trail of those responsible for the said murder in conjunction with other security agencies and we assure all that the attackers and their motives will soon be uncovered." Signed Col. Olayinka Olayanju Commandant Amotekun, Oyo State. February 8, 2021. |
False Alarm Video about Ayete, Oyo State It is very unkind, disrespectful, uncouched for anyone to want to call the attention of the governor to an issue, and start it by using very insulting, derogatory words for a complain without evidence. A video was done by a man who allegedly raised an alarm that two villages in Ayete has been seized by Fulani militias, he further said all the Yoruba Residents/indigenous occupiers in that community have all been killed, this is a False news from the deepest part of hell. Further and independent investigation shows that this is a terrible lie from the pit of hell, aimed at further incitement of the public against the government. The true position of the matter is that, some Fulanis who are illegally occupying lands are been asked to documentally be integrated into the community, in line with the government directives, a minor scuffle which has now been resolved is what this satanic agent made video over and started broadcasting on social media, in the process calling the government all sorts of names. The public must slow down in the way they take these satanic agent of chaos and misinformation serious. The fake news purveyors won't tell you that in the Ibarapa axis, there have been lots of cross marriage between the Yorubas and Fulanis, which started several decades ago. People must know that it is wrong to keep spreading false allegation, or putting information capable of causing ethnic riot or crisis. For instance, the way the man alleged that Yorubas in Ayete were killed, this he said with no single evidence, either photo or video proof, what if Yorubas in other communities begins to attack and kill Innocent Fulanis? Unfortunately, some Stakeholders, who have the resources to check the veracity of the allegation are also sharing and further spreading the fake video. It is important that before reacting to such news, one must first pause, do a quick fact check before joining the bandwagon. In this age and time of information technology, authentication of any news does not take more than 5 minutes, as the whole world is now a global village made possible by technological advancement. Finally, the critical Stakeholders must not fall for the wishes of the oppositions and those who don't wish this government well, who are constantly looking for a way to defame the lofty achievements of Governor Seyi Makinde with issues of Insecurity. The goverment is not resting in its pursuit to put every security threats to a halt, but we must not create imaginary security challenges where one do not exist. |
Gov Makinde Declares War Against Kidnappers, Criminals in Ibarapa, Oke Ogun Says we can’t lose more lives to insecurity …’to meet Ibarapa traditional rulers’ We’ll compensate victims of Ibarapa crisis, gov says Governor ‘Seyi Makinde of Oyo State declared on Monday that the state government has turned the heat on kidnappers and criminals in Ibarapa and Oke-Ogun axis of the state, adding that the state will succeed in routing them. Governor Makinde, who was speaking at different spots in Ibarapaland where he engaged the people in town hall meetings, said that his administration will get the criminals to account for their heinous acts in the state. He equally declared that the state could not afford to lose any more lives to insecurity, stating, however, that any action that must be taken must be guided by the realisation that a wrong solution must not be proffered in order to avoid unintended consequences. A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr. Taiwo Adisa, indicated that the governor stated these in Ibarapaland during meetings at Idere, Igangan and during visits to the homes of the late Dr. Fatai Aborode and others who lost their lives to the crisis in the area. Governor Makinde, who equally commiserated with Mrs. Idowu Babarinde, who lost a child to indiscriminate shooting by kidnappers in their attempt to kidnap a filling station owner in Idere, said he was pained by the losses recorded in the area, adding that he felt the pain of the people of Ibarapaland. “I decided to spend the night in Ibarapaland so as to let you know that if my people in this place cannot sleep with two eyes closed, I cannot also sleep with my two eyes closed in Ibadan,” the governor said, adding that the visit afforded him the opportunity of feeling the pains of the people first-hand. He said: “We are turning the heat on the criminal elements and we will surely get them.” He stated that the government will compensate victims of the insecurity situation in Ibarapaland, adding that measures that the government is taking to curtail the situation include the setting up of an all-inclusive peace and security committee at the local government levels and the stepping up intelligence gathering in the area. According to him, “one of the things we want to do is, we must have a peace and security committee at the local government level, which will be all-encompassing. “Those people that are supposed to be there and can contribute meaningfully must be accommodated. “So, I have listened to you. I came here purposely to sleep over to demonstrate that your problem is also my problem. If you cannot sleep with your two eyes closed, I also have no business sleeping with my two eyes closed in Ibadan.” He further stated that the government will convene a meeting with traditional rulers in Ibarapaland in the next few days with a view to coming up with recommendations on the situation, warning that emergency situations as such should have been brought to the attention of the government long before it escalated. Governor Makinde, who clarified that though he was misunderstood for the position he took during the crisis, he is not afraid to speak out but that he would not allow anyone to start ethnic war under his watch. He added that the failure of communication, intelligence gathering and other factors led to the escalation of the crisis in the area and that though his government would take responsibility for some of the challenges, security challenges cannot be solved in one day. The governor warned political office holders, community leaders and stakeholders in the area to treat emergency situations as sensitive and bring such to the attention of government on time, stating that claims that letters were written to him were faulty. He told political leaders of the area not to shy away from seeking audience with him wherever there is a gap that must be bridged. He added that apart from the immediate deployment of 200 additional Amotekun Corps to Ibarapaland, he has also instructed that the agency and other security apparatuses step up on intelligence gathering, stating that the government will also fast-track its identity management policy so that it could know who lives where in the state. The governor equally warned residents of the state not to stigmatise any particular ethnic group but to search out the real enemies who he said are the kidnappers, bandits, rapists, hoodlums and armed robbers. At the home of the Aborodes, where the governor commiserated with the father of the late Aborode, Governor Makinde said: “I want to tell you that I feel your pain, because when I saw the news of the death of Dr. Fatai Aborode, I was seriously pained. “In 2017, when we were striving to restructure the PDP, we started meetings and put some people in some local governments. Dr. Aborode was made the point man in Ibarapa North. I was at Ibadan in charge of Ibadan North-East and we did hold meetings at Premier Hotel. The situation is that if a tsetse fly perches on one’s private part, it requires wisdom to make it fly away or to kill it. “Everybody is alleging that the Police are not giving us enough support while Amotekun and Operation Burst are really being supportive. But what the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria states is that whatever bothers on internal security should be handled by the Police. “That is why some of us have said the federal control of Police is limiting their performance. That was why we requested for State Police and we know it is a constitutional issue. “So, when we got into government, we observed there was no State Police and we did not want to drop the idea. Those who were of the opinion that State Police may be used for political reasons also have their own point but if there is an alignment, people will see that the noticeable gap in policing should be bridged. “When the discussion was going on, the IGP also agreed that there is a gap and that was why they recruited for community policing but we think that is not enough to bridge the existing gap. That was why we requested state policing and when we did not get that, we resorted to Amotekun as a stop-gap arrangement while the issue of the constitution review is going on. “So, I would like to say that most of our compatriots have been cut down in their prime; we regret it and the solution is we must not lose more lives unnecessarily. That is very fundamental. So, anything we want to do, one thing that must guide us is the fact that we must not lose more lives.” Governor Makinde stated that the crisis escalated due to failures on different fronts, saying: “There are failures on a number of fronts and one of the fronts we are witnessing failure was when some are saying they wrote letters to my office. I said I will love to see the acknowledgment copies to know where those letters are, who acknowledged them, and the prayers you made too. “When I saw the acknowledgment letters, I saw that one of them was dated 27th of January, the earliest one was 20th of January and that is when the cases had escalated. “Anything about security, I approve instantly because most of the things we want to do in Oyo State, ranging from economy, good education for our children and other things are hinged on a safe and secure environment. I believe there is a failure in that communication. “Any emergency situation must be treated as an emergency. There is nothing that should stop you (chairmen) from telling us there is an emergency situation, which requires you to sit down with the governor. So, I have seen the failure we have to address and we have to ensure that, moving forward, wherever there is a gap, we must bridge instantly.” On the trust deficit between Fulani herdsmen resident in the state and the local residents, the governor stated that the state will fast-track the identity management scheme that will help to identify who lives where in the state, warning, however, everyone must strive to keep the peace. “Some of the problems have been existing for years. It is not all Fulani people that are criminals, I must tell you. Some of those caught after a robbery operation at Okeho were Igbira from Kogi State. “So, we must strive and do the work that can keep our environment safe. There are few things the government has promised to do and the central part of it, which we think will help our situation is identity management. We want to know who is where. “This week, after the whole issue started escalating, I asked the committee we set up to look into that but they had already formed an inter-ministerial committee. Immediately I noticed, I dissolved it and gave the S.A on ICT single-point responsibility and a time-frame to get it done. This is an unusual time. “What happened in Rwanda will not be our portion. If anyone wants to ignite war in Nigeria,bit won’t be from here and won’t be under my own watch. We will find a solution to the challenges facing us because we know there are challenges.” He also warned against attempts by some individuals to politicise the insecurity situation, noting that after his administration ends, the state would remain to face the consequences of their actions. While speaking at Idere, the governor said though he could be accused of anything on the crisis in Ibarapaland, he could not be accused of not loving his people, saying that before he became governor, the people demonstrated love for him. He said: “I feel your pain and I am not taking your love for granted. Those who want to politicise the situation were the ones saying I should have visited here but, the truth is, I needed feedback. And it was deliberate that the document we brought out in 2019, security is one of the pillars that we say this administration would rest upon. “It was deliberate for me to stay here overnight. One thing I want to take away is that we are all together to solve this problem. I don’t want further needless loss of lives, whether Fulani or Yoruba or anybody and we all need to come together. ” There are criminals from all over and we also have the issue of fake news. Sometimes, we don’t know which news is true and the fake one. They have given the security agencies a run around. “Deliberately, some elements will send fake news out and security agencies will still expend the limited resources to chase after something that is not real. But we should not be looking back. We are where we are right now and we must think-out solutions that will move us forward with minimal disruptions and loss of lives. “Within the next one week, we will summon the meeting Kabiyesi asked us to call for. One of the initiatives of the government is, we need to know who is where and that is why I asked them to fast track the policy of identity management in Oyo State. Be it okada riders, be it Fulani herdsmen, we want to know you and know what you are doing. “So, I solicit your support and we will deploy resources to get it done. “By God’s grace, very soon, all of us will begin to sleep with our two eyes closed. But we all have to do it together. If you see something, say something to us. Always remind those who are going about, insisting they must politicise the issue of security in the state too.” During the different stops, traditional rulers, political leaders, youth leaders and other stakeholders took turns to brief the governor of the challenges they have been dealing with in the hands of herdsmen from 2008 and kidnappers, especially in recent times. The royal fathers, however, commended Makinde for the security strategy he put in place in the last two weeks, during which they are yet to witness any case of kidnapping. |

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIAN STUDENTS (NANS) JOINT CAMPUS COMMITTEE LAGOS AXIS 12/1/2021 PRESS STATEMENT ON THE CLOSURE OF NIGERIAN SCHOOLS BY FG It is sad that in a society where development and growth should be the core desire, it chooses to derail and nullify the values of development. Education is a key factor to nation building especially for countries which desire the best for its people not a like nigeria which bastardized the relevance of education in the various spheres most especially in our tertiary institution system. From untenable ASUU STRIKES to scrupolous increment in fees to unreasonable closure of schools across the country. It is sad to hear that our government has again chosen to shutdown schools again all in the name of curbing covid-19 and still yet market places, religious bodies and other unstructured institution are opened and have truly show that the government is misplacing her priorities. We make to say that we kick against the said closure of institutions of learning even after many has been at home as a result of 9 months of Covid 19 Pandemic and ASUU Strike. This are young adults above the age of 16 who can actually adhere to instructions and coordinate themselves as long as institutions management can put appropriate measure in place in schools which it is expected for them to have down long before now! So why lockdown schools again!? Students spending 3years in a particular academic year is catastrophic and demonic in nature and a show of the incapability of the incubement government for lack of empathy on the educational journey of Nigerian Students. We however, urge the federal government to let the January 18th resumption date to stand and dialogue with stakeholders in the education sector in order to provide a safe environment for students and staffs which include the use of both physical and online methods of learning, rearrangement of time table, and providing necessary materials such as sanitizer and face masks among others.

COMMUNIQUE OF THE NANS JCC LAGOS 2020 TRANSITION CONVENTION It's highly disheartening to see leaders of tomorrow go below the threshold of mediocrity in the quest for power. There is a baseless communique and pictures of kitchen convention held by some unscrupulous elements in the state. They have turned the constitution upside down just to fulfil their quest for power and satisfy their selfish interests. We can pretend not to see them and their child's play but we just want to clear the public that the one and only legit NANS JCC Lagos axis chairman still remain Comr. Rasheed Ogunsanya(RATIO) any other chairman is a counterfeit. We therefore advice those who are pushing Samuel Olalere(Samgrin) to become a leader without followers to desist. The constitution of NANS JCC Lagos axis provides that no convention can hold without the simple majority senators but the irrational past jcc chairman in person of Comr. Qowiyy had became blind to the provision of the constitution. We hereby call on the attention of leaders, stakeholders, comrades and everyone in the students community to disregard any information stating Samuel Olalere(SAMGRIN) as the chairman, it's totally baseless.

NANS Lagos under the leadership of Comrade Ogunsanya Rasheed will not tolerate any form of oppression or intimidation from the men of the Nigeria Police meted out against Nigerian Students and the youth at large.

NANS LAGOS SUPPORTS NLC, TUC ON STRIKE ACTION; ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO JOIN THE PROTEST The leadership of National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Joint Campus Committee, Lagos Axis led by Comrade Ogunsanya Rasheed has thrown their full support to the purported strike by the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress over the recent increase in pump price and electricity tariff. The statement was issued and signed by Comr. Rasheed Ogunsanya, Chairman, NANS, Lagos JCC, to the press, on Sunday, Sept. 27, in Epe, Lagos. The leadership of NANS Lagos fully supports the Action by NLC, TUC and also encourage Nigerians to cooperate with the body until the federal government do the needful. In the advent of this anti-people policy, the leadership of NANS Lagos led a peaceful protest and give a public declaration of rejecting the incessant increment in PMS and Electricity tariff, calling on the government to reverse it. Unfortunately, the federal government turn on a deaf ear, seems strike is the only language the federal government understands. The increase in pump price is an injustice taking too far on the citizens of our country, as an association we reject this move by the federal government and are in total support of NLC and TUC. Furthermore, the country is just reviving from a pandemic that has made most citizens loose lots of their income, increasing the pump price as well as the electricity tariff in this period is a punishment to the citizen and a sign that the leadership of the country do not care about its citizens. More so, the association kindly indulge the federal government to critically consider the effect of this decision on the citizens most especially this trying times of Covid 19 and put in place policies and strategies which will help Nigerians recover from the effect of the pandemic. In this same vain, the leadership of NANS Lagos as a means of solidarity support have directed the students of tertiary institutions in Lagos to stay off campus to show our support.

Love and Light to Adams Oshiomole by omobabaijebu I have known Adams oshiomole since the time of Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, A labour leader that was famous for his advocacy and standing by the side of the oppressed, as a matter of fact, many people saw Adam Oshiomole as the Nelson Mandela of Nigeria. He was first appointed in 1982 as the secretary-general of the National Union of the textile garment, up until his recent humiliation by the leadership of the All progressive people's Congress, Adams Oshiomole has held one leadership position or the other in our country. His contributions to the NLC cannot be undermined but then Adams Oshiomole became opposite of what he used to be during his tenure at the NLC compared to when he became the Executive Governor of Edo state in 2008, from being the voice of the voiceless to a known looter, election rigger, mini-god, and also supports our oppressors, this is not Adams Oshiomole stands for. It's sad to see people change when they are given little power. Recall that the people of Edo state have been clamoring for the prosecution of Adams Oshiomole and one Dr. Idaahosa also took him to court in a bid to get him investigated for misappropriation of funds during his time as the Governor of Edo state, I can tell you that Adams Oshiomole has been able to escape justice because he has always been friends with people at the center, the current anti-corruption agency is weak which will make it difficult for him to be prosecuted If Nigeria was a sane country where anti-corruption laws are obeyed, people like Adams Oshiomole are supposed to be behind bars for various atrocities committed against humanity. should Adams Escape justice from men will he Escape from his creator? Adams Oshiomole time as the chairman of the All progressive people's Congress is another testimony that he is a bad leader, his failure to address lingering issues in the party since his assumption of office was one of the major reasons why the ruling party lost some state and seat to the opposition. I have not since a useless ruling party like that of APC under the chairmanship of Adams oshiomole. The same scenario also played out in Edo, where he turned himself to a mini-god, taking actions on behalf of the governor thereby rendering him useless and also denying him the second term ticket like he said in one of the videos can any man say God will not win? truly God won again, shaming him and his caucus of bitter people, today Edo state is free from Bondage, corruption, and God's fatherism. What's next for Adams Oshiomole? well, we do not know but then a defeat sometimes helps you to strategize, block loopholes, identify your enemy and learn to play your cards well. As for me, I will be sending him lots of love and light, I hope he becomes the Adams I know and once admire. you can reach me via @omobabaijebu on twitter |

OPEN LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIAN STUDENTS (NANS) TO; THE PRESIDENT (NANS) COM.BAMIDELE DANIELSON AKPAN, NASARAWA STATE UNIVERSITY , KEFFI - LAFIA ROAD, NASARAWA STATE. NIGERIA. TIME TO TAKE ACTION! Aluta greetings to you Distinguish President. I am writing to you in respect of the continuous closure of tertiary institutions in Nigeria and the attending challenges therein by the Federal Government due to Covid-19. As at today Nigeria, has less than fifty thousand Covid-19 cases. Out of the average five hundred cases announced by the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) on a daily basis, according to a report by Punch Newspaper "31-40years of age are susceptible to Covid-19". With this report, there is a high possibility that there are fewer cases of those with age 16-30 years. If you agree with me Mr president, that is the age group of most of my fellow compatriots on our campuses nationwide. Clearly, Nigerian students can go back to their lecture halls if safety protocols are provided. The idea of allowing senior secondary school students resume for WASSCE without consideration for their counterparts in higher institution is to say the least short sightedness and lack of real time crisis management prowess. Covid-19 in my view is acute malaria, mixed with what cannot be immediately termed by me as I write this. Statistics show that Nigeria has 25% of the malaria burden in Africa If we choose to move on with malaria without closing our economy and schools then why should we close them now when we can even take safety precautions. Mr president sir, while students overseas are using their institutions' laboratories for research to ensure that a vaccine is produced, ours are locked. Not even final year students can access them for their projects. Our system has reduced supposed solution providers to mere objects meant to be fed with all sorts. It is no news that most students just go to school for the sake of reading to pass. This kind of mental drain portends great danger to the survival of our dear country and the future is not assured. Recall that some state governments made effort with online classes. Checks with friends from different parts of the country have shown that this is not working, as most school do not have the requisite facilities to achieve this basic change to achieve optimum results. This alone is enough to show you that we are not ready as a nation and if Covid-19 last for a year or even more, our institutions might remain under lock and key with no contribution whatsoever. Mr President Sir, I am obliged to ask why your administration has been silent in the fight against Covid-19. I am not aware of any effort by your administration on this issue since genesis. I am persuaded to believe that you are not on the side of the millions of Nigerians on our campuses who are desperately looking for a way out as a number of them have opportunities that may be missed if something urgently is not done. The finalists are the worst hit. In my opinion Sir, important actions to be taken are presented below. This is just the TIME TO TAKE ACTION; 1)A press conference addressing students that you have not forgotten them also to let them see reasons that your government stand with the students and not their age-long oppressors 2)There is a need for you to immediately arrange a meeting with all relevant stakeholders in government to discuss the immediate resumption of Nigerian students. 3)A need for Covid-19 palliatives for students, reduction in house rents and other utility bills that must have accumulated during this period 4)Immediate action on the reopening of tertiary institutions Mr president I want you know that we can't continue to live in denial that this long break has not had a lot of negative impacts on the students and for a under-developed nation like ours, we should not jeopardize the future of our youths. Let me also remind you that if necessary steps is not taken by your leadership, it will be remembered for her cowardly display on important issue such as this. In conclusion, do not forget that posterity will judge us all. And if you want to write your name in NANS's good book of history, it would be better for you to do it right. And right now! Yours in struggle, Igbeyinadun Iyanuoluwa contactiyanuoluwa@gmail.com |
OF hushpuppi, The Nigerian youths and the benchmark for success By @omobabaijebu101 on Twitter Rahmon Abass popularly called hushpuppi is not a new name to instagram users in nigeria, the flamboyant and oppressive lifestyle of Rahmon made him popular on the gram and also got his account verified. A first class Gucci man, airlord and "E pain them" croner as been arrested by the Dubai police alongside his friends. Good for him, good for the over 2million people they scammed, good for the Federal republic of Nigeria, the road to justice start now, hushpuppi will not go unpunished and this will surely happen to every Nigerian youth who have chosen to make money fraudulently, Thereby jeopardizing the chances of others who go out with their daily business legitimately. I have always told people that there's nothing you achieve using fraud that you cannot achieve when you do what is right, the amount of energy you put into defrauding people, if you channel that same energy to do what is right you will definately achieve your dreams. That the sytem encourages fraud doesnt mean you should be a fraudster. To others doing what is right there really no benchmark for success you can attain any level in life if you want to, never measure your succes with what you see on the gram, most people have regretted their existence because they wanted to be like hushpuppi, they prefer to be like hushpuppi than to be like Bill Gate there where carried away by the lifestyle and not how he makes his money. People forget that when you are rich, there are a lot of findongs that would be done on how you made your money, not all of them are sycophants some really want to know where you get all the money you are trowing around. Our elders will say "Whatever you work for will stay with you for a very long time " though hushpuppy might have claimed that he worked hard for his money but the truth his he was a fraudster and there is no dignity in that.

Aluta gyrations'20 by Olamilekan Idris; A reminder that the student's struggle must not die It is no longer a news that Aluta gyrations'20 by olamilekan Idris is out and available for download at different online platforms, let me start by congratulating you on this big project you have been able to achieve. May the spirit of our leaders be with you and grant you success in your future pursuit. The first verse talked about fighting our oppressors, and truly we are still fighting, the student faculty have face a lot of intimidation from our oppressors across Nigeria, which reminds me of 2013/2014 when comrade stainless lead student to protest against the tyrannical government of ogun state, demanded for good welfarism of the student and the interference of the state government in the election of nans ogun jjc axis, we saw ex-student leaders supporting our oppressor and subverted the will of the people. Truth is our oppressors are killing the spirit of unionism, from choosing who they like, to under funding the student's union government and also using former student leaders to fight the current union leaders, let this be read here that we will never forget their deeds. Do we still have union leaders ? This is the question on the lips of every student in Nigeria, but to be Frank with you, I think the student unionism have lost it and people don't find it interesting since all you need to do is to know people in power even without elections you can be crowned the winner. Not to bore you with talks, the aluta gyration is what every aspiring leader or every leader should download, I think this will help us remember where we are coming from, what is needed to be done and how we can become a great leader. "I love gyrations I no go lie" I love this one also and I want to charge all other union leaders to give us something like this , please give us something that will take us back to history, story of our courageous leaders who where killed and those who have betrayed the student struggle On the part of my brother Alimi, history will be kind to him and others who have teamed up to produce this track and honestly they brought back old memories. It's my prayer that the keke of aluta will never fail you. |
