My brother, you said it all.. CU alumni is very strong and close... One of the major reasons for the employability, which is great. I now see why oyedepo doesn't want the population to go past 8thousand m. That way, almost everyone knows everyone... Just like havard and imperial college.

Are you saying from year one to final year in all the faculties in CU, their students are not more than 8k

With the way this Transfer market dey go, I smell Done Deal BTW APC and Other Aspirants... Power of Federal No Boy boy play, Davido should face his Entertainment before Tinubu boys(Lagos State Government) will ruin his career!!..

I swear Davido is toying with his career...

Even if APC win tomorrow's election without rigging, people will think they rigged it.

Note: both parties practice vote buying and rigging, just that one is perfect than one. Also note that, any form of rigging in Osun State today was invented by PDP Oyinlola regime in 2011

Like you agree, share if not

Osun State, best of luck

I can't really blame Omisore for decamping, his own has finished already. Tomorrow's election won't make him win, so why shouldn't he join one force at least to gain little of what he has spent on the election.

This is where we should know all. Nigerian politicians are aspiring a post for their own interest.

Laredojohn:
Looking closely it's clear there is an elevation in front, looks more like a palace where a king seats elevate, guess he is postrating for Omisore's dad who is a traditional rulers in ede..

Omisore's dad is a traditional ruler in Ede Please get your fact clear. His father is a traditional ruler in Olódẹ

How to fix Nigeria in 72 hours
By Abdulrazaq O Hamzat

Nigeria is one of the greatest countries in the world, whose greatness is being held back by numerous self inflicted vices.

While the country is blessed abundantly in all fronts, its greatest undoing is the lack of visionary leadership, which some analysts have described as Nigeria’s natural disaster.

Successive governments in Nigeria have blamed the complexity of the country for their failure in office and some even argued that Nigeria is a difficult country to govern.

However, this piece is not to debate whether or not, Nigeria is a difficult country to govern since every country has their own peculiar difficulties, the focus is to proffer workable solutions that if implemented can set the nation on the path of progress.

To my understanding, any visionary leadership can fix Nigeria in just 72 hours and position the country for greatness.

By fixing Nigeria, I do not mean a sudden transformation from third world to first world.

What I mean is simply to create a structure for progress by building and empowering all citizens to directly or indirectly be part of the nation building process and putting the right people in the right place, to drive the right policies with the required vigor at the right time and create an institutional culture that cannot be reversed.

Without boring you with so much intellectual analysis and academic jargons, let us go straight to the issues that matter and how to fix Nigeria within 72hours.

We must recognize that people, whose tribal and family members were cruelly murdered in the first coup, counter coup, pogrom and civil war are still hurting.

They are all front line victims still hurting from the pains of the past.

Nigeria as a country should offer specific apology and relief to these set of victims and a national apology to all Nigerians, who may have been directly or indirectly affected by these unfortunate incidents.

This singular action will begin the process of leading Nigeria to civil peace.

This action is very important because, it is the first primary duty of Nigeria as a country to protect every citizen from harm, even against themselves and the country failed in that regard.

Nigeria’s greatest challenge is the disconnection between the people and its government.

The people lack outright understanding that they own the government and could dictate what must be done.
This disconnection has made them lack patriotism in the sense that, they do not take ownership of government resources, assets, policies and vision.

Prioritize public information, re-orientation and sensitization through constant engagement for educational purpose on key citizenship concept.

The leader must educate the people to be able to socially mobilize them for joint policy implementation and to instil mass patriotism.

Economic marginalization, extra judicial killings, security high handedness and lack of access to justice had given birth to regional and community terror gangs such as militants, insurgents etc.

Offer sincere apology to all victims and their community.

Offer sincere amnesty to all combatants and demonstrate willingness for true national healing by having open and sincere dialogue about the cause of the problem and give room for joint problem solving.
De-militarize, De-mobilize and reintegrate.

The court is not a place for dispute resolution; it is a place for judgement pronouncement.

And in most cases, judgement is only pronounced in favour of the most intelligent speaker, but only the rich can hire the best speakers.

In addition to this, the slow justice system is a major problem, apart from the excessive concentration on technicalities, thereby loosing the essence of the justice system.

The worst alternative dispute resolution is still a little better than the best court judgement because, ADR does not only resolve the dispute, it unites the conflicting parties.

Center for alternative dispute resolution should therefore be given greater priority in our quest for peace.

ADR centers should be established across all local government areas of Nigeria and empowered with adequate resources to function properly.

The court should be encouraged mostly to handle criminal matters, while ADR centers handle civil matters.

Religion/ethnic sentiment is the order in Nigeria rather than the exception.

This vice drives our politics, policies and conduct in every sphere of life.

Hardly can any policy be discussed without an element of ethnic and religious sentiment.

From Central Bank money printing, recruitment into civil service, security engagement and activities, foreign mission and even achievement of Nigerians in diaspora are all subjected to ethnic/religious interpretation.

If we don’t want the populace to continue to draw wrong ethnic/religion interpretation from our everyday issue, we must give them something else to draw interpretation from by shaping their sentiments with more free thoughts that disrupt their preconceived thoughts.

As we all know, sentiment is part of life and a visionary leadership will understand how to exploit the ethnic and religious sentiment of all sections of its citizens for positive advancement of their interest.

Osun election has been the most interesting election so far. See as people gathered on Saturday because of Osun State. Even people that are shouting Biafra too gathered

Do you know that the Kwara state is bigger than Ọ̀yọ́ State? And the difference between Kwara and Ọ̀yọ́ State is bigger than Osun State?

FACT

Good to see a Nigerian

Awol1:
What is stopping PDP from going to court?

Because I'm not seeing this rerun in favour of PDP o

Court, I don't understand. Is like you don't know the rules of election.

Krak:
It was massive. I even saw collaboration between PDP agents and some policemen.

APC was very docile in this election. I wonder why.

The hatred in people's DNA has blindfolded them to see the truth about Osun election. Am not in support of any party but when talking about credible, free and fair election in Osun State APC should be given accolade. If it were to be PDP is the ruling party in Osun State, bro, we would have heard of many killings and brutality. This is the only election in Osun that I wasn't opportuned to witness, before I relocated to state (Sokoto state not USA o, ) 2 years ago, all the democratic elections under PDP regime have always been bloody.

Krak:
I was on ground for the election PDP rigged massively. They were buying peoples votes on the polling units by paying them 2k each. Surprisingly APC was not doing likewise, and the place was a perceived stronghold of APC.

When I see people ranting on social media, I shake head for them. The 2 parties bought votes but PDP own worst. If APC bought 40% votes, PDP bought 85% of their votes.

I was surprised on Saturday when a corper friend called me that APC will lose the election, I asked why and she said PDP are ready to spend to any length while APC doesn't spend a penny in her PU.

Johnson5258:
See my person, what anybody can do to help himself or herself is to be educated, at all, at all OND, Nigeria is drastically changing, no more party voting but individual ooo, our mumu Don do! PDP will win forget it.

Where do you reside? If in Osun, do you vote for PDP? If yes, I need to question your education.

I don't support any party but if it is about personality as you've said, SDP should have won.

Igbo, over to you. Your food don come

Hatred is in their DNA

APC till 2023

Benekruku:
Don't mind those children of hate

Hatred is in their DNA

I swear some people are just stupid right from birth. If the tanker should do gbam nao, some e-diots will still blame Buhari.

Koolking:
I bet if APC had rigged the election, they would never be an inconclusive elections. It looks like PDP outsmarted them.

I was telling someone this afternoon, if APC have it in mind of rigging, they would have won. Any forms of rigging in Osun State today was invented by PDP Oyinlola regime. If you know you know.

APC shouldn't think of Ife, the 2 PUs in ife are PDP stronghold.
Samething to Osogbo but the 4th one, only God knows.

You will see the way the 2 party will spend on these 4 PUs for the election. These 4 units will determine the faith of Osun State for the next 4 years.

Can someone tell me, beside half salary payment, what has APC done wrong in osun state that Igbos are shouting? Just asking o

Who wins is none of my business, what am after is that the constitution needs to be amended concerning electing our political office holders.
How can the constitution says someone who wants to contest for post of governor or president must have senior school certificate but nowadays if graduates are looking for employment they will say minimum of second class upper.
