Individuals and not business. Similarly, state universities charge higher fees for out of state/region students?
The only legal way to stem migration is through taxation. #justsaying Yep yep! |

StuntingBlack: @ d bold
Not only the chiks but the most alarming is how their guys proliferate the streets of SW everyday. But wait people, is it that our SW governors and policy makers are blind to see that the region is officially overpopulated, or are they just not observant?.... I really dont get it.
Now thats one of our problems. There was one time one of these senseless flateenos insulted us on having high rates of crime and poverty, I had to remind him that if regionalism stands today and everybody is allowed to man his domain, these shiit wont happen. Right now as things are, the SW cant just come up with policies that will help reduce overpopulation in the region since we are stuck. Its bad you know.... The codeword is POLITICAL CORRECTNESS. Why are we piling up on the governors? The inception of any democratic shift starts at the Legislature. What are our Assemblymen and women doing? Let's give the Governors some slack and put heat underneath theLegislators. |

Aareonakakanfo: [size=14pt]Ekiti Assembly to Pass Law Prescribing Death Penalty for Kidnappers[/size]
Members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly have moved to pass a bill to make kidnappers die by hanging in the state.
Expressing serious views over the twin menace of kidnapping and terrorism in the country, the assembly also moves to stipulate penalty for those who pay ransom to these evil doers.
To this end, two of the three laws that were deliberated upon at the assembly’s plenary yesterday dwelt on curbing of crimes that has to do with kidnapping that has become a source of revenues for some criminals.
They were Office of the Public Defender Bill (2015) and Ekiti State Kidnap and Terrorism (Prohibition) Bill (2015.
Both successfully passed second reading and were passed to the appropriate committees to scrutinise for final passage.
The plenary, presided over by the Speaker, Hon. Kola Oluwawole, witnessed a robust debate by members on the matters.
Presenting the bills from the order paper, Deputy Leader of Business, Hon. Adeniran Alagbada, lamented the trauma victims of kidnap and their family members are often subjected to.
Also speaking on the Public Defender Bill, the Chairman, House Committee on information, Hon. Olugboyega Aribisogan, noted that the bill would afford the poor who lack financial capability to pursue their cases the opportunity to access justice.
In the same vein, the Chairman, House Committee on Health, Dr. Babajide Omotoso; Hon. Akinleye Ekundayo, Hon. Titilayo
Owolabi-Akerele, Hon. Wale Ayeni and Ayodele Fajemilehin, who also contributed to the motions on the floor, described the bills as those that would have direct positive bearing on the lives of the people of the state.
Another law, Ekiti State College of Technical and Commercial Agriculture Repeal Bill (2015), had earlier passed through first reading.
Ex-Governor Kayode Fayemi had earlier signed the bill into law to enhance the establishment of a School of Agriculture in his Isan Ekiti country home, which the assembly thought would have to be abrogated due to poor financial status of the state.

Katz, I am yet to get to the root of the misunderstanding that erupted into Kiriji war. This is what I know about men's outlook on life and survival generally. 1. If you lay a feast of every decent and desirable dish on a table a mile long and invite men to it in reward for them to join a suicide mission squad, no man will show up. 2. If you open a vault filled with money and jewels as reward for suicide mission, men will show up, take a stock of it and ask you if they commit suicide how then will they enjoy all these treasure. 3. If you lay beautiful women on beds as rewards for men to join a suicide squad, men will trample over one another to be the first in line. Some will turn back once it dawns on them its not an everlasting reward. 4. If you promise virgins...72 of them as everlasting reward...and give suicide mission as the gateway to these virgins, plenty of men will show up ready to strap on and go to the mission. Some will ask for time to think about it and consult with their friends and brothers, half of them will return with their brothers and friends as volunteers....the other half will wonder why the heaven virgin is more valuable than the earthly virgin and never return. I share this to bring you into reflection about man, poussy and survival. Take time to think about it and then share with me why Yorubas went to a total war and destoyed land and lives and towns and properties. Did someone steal Alaafin's cow? I doubt it. Somewhere in this intrigue there was a woman. I want to know this heroine and her story.  |

Katsumoto: Mayor
This is a great idea; why did you think it would be unpopular. This idea shouldn't apply to Osun alone; all SW states can adopt this idea. One of the reasons why communities stay poor is because governments don't spend the proceeds of loans on indigenes preferring to award contracts to external 3rd parties who will come and execute projects and then leave with funds. But current politicians will not adopt this because they wont be able to inflate contracts exorbitantly.

Shymm3x: I actually thought she just turned the noun "coconut" (a derogatory word for a black person that acts white) into an adjective. So, Ilekeh, you called me a "blockhead", no? - Diarisgod!!! 
I'm like that and I'm sure the majority of folks on this forum don't like me. I just catch fun on here how I can. It's basically like in the real world as well. Though I'm more reserved, most folks that don't know me always think I'm arrogant/snobbish and they believe I think I'm better than everyone cos you'll never catching me smiling or watching people. And I seldom talk as well. However, once they get to know me - they know I'm a different animal, the type of guy you just can't hate.
My life's just simple and straight-forward...I don't take life seriously and I don't care about anything. I'm just like Mark Twain with a remix. The ideal life to me is about: good friends, good books, hustling,beautiful women, and a sleepy conscience.  Nothing do you my Duke! We all cannot br the same.or have same energy or outlook. No one can deny your brilliance and passion for your beliefs. You are a total package, simple! What people need to understand is you grew up in an environment where such free display of personality is the expected. Children brought up in Nigeria are groomed to have a consciousness of self and to censor emotional displays publicly. Parents don't always succeed in that mission and out of four children there will be the one exception to the rule. Similarly for children brought up abroad where liberty of expression and display of ego is the norm, there will be exceptiins and we get Tokunbos that are shy and withdrawn. Guys leave Duke to do his thing.... |

Let me respond to Katz on Osun before I take a break.
Katz, I still believe in the Yoruba of today as I do in those of past ages and their attitude to land. By custom Yorubas are cultivators of land. We are reputed as city and town builders. How did we build our cities and towns and infrastructures before the arrival of Julius Berger and Cappa d'Alberto?
We've seen pictures of palaces erected three storey high (in fact credit to Terracotta for being one of the first people to bring those into open here) with materials sourced locally from the land. Yorubas in uplands dammed rivers and built water channels. In Kabba, Yorubas used rocksalt to create minute statutes and art crafts numberimg thousands...the likes of which has not been recorded in any history of mankind. The walls of Eredo, the greatest monument in human antiquity, how did we do it? The great walls of Old Oyo and the forts, did Julius Berger build it?
These structures were put up with the communal effort.of the citizens. When citizens have a sense of.ownership in the cause they will sacrifice and volunteer for the collective benefit. Those structures were built in what today would be the responsibility of Public Works Department.
Do we have any PWDs left? We may not be able to achieve the same focus and passion using PWD in LAGOS but in OSUN where largely 90% citizens are invested in the land, I see no reason why a PWD in OSUN could not employ youths and put them to workto renew.and develop townships.
Our governments are taking loans to contract Julius Berger and all these foreign companies to come and build cities and towns for us. Where did our abilities dissapear to, who robbed us our skills to cultivate the land and bring beauty and majesty out of emptiness?
I will keep this short.
Im a strong advocate for redistribution of income. I understand the need to shore up our international ratings and credibility through global financial participation...big man's word for debt! Lol. What I dont understand is we starve our own citizens in order that our cities and towns can stand global acceptance....and we do so by blocking redistribution of income locally.
Osun should review all infrastructure contracts and do two things
1. Create a Marshall plan for employment, youth engagement and development
2. Redirect contracts awarded to foreigners and allocate it locally to boost wage earning, taxes, and discretionary spending so the money can funnel down and go round and bring people into recovery. |

Anyway Im here to respond to a question from Katz on what magic to apply and get Osun out of its current situation. I have an answer for you, its unpopular and painful. I know Im not blind but I believe I saw TerraCota said somewhere that he sees Yorubaland beyond the confines of SW. This is the only useful knowledge you shared in that three page long lecture. Anyway, e kaabo o.  On another observation...I trust Yoruba on religion and cultural tolerance, Yoruba has short fuse when politics is involved. Anytime I see so many Yorubas gather and chatter back and forth and generate so much heat on politics as it is here I bring my grandfather sword out and sharpen it on the ready.....I smell another Kiriji in your plot!  .

Shymmex, Each of our Yoruba frontline politicians in the contemporary has an archetype we can match them to in the pre and post independence era.
Fashola is a reincarnate of Herbert Macauley Tinubu is a reincarnate of Awo.
A reincarnate relives opportunities and aims to polish and do right what he got wrong on first coming. The two lives will never be lived exactly the same and cannot therefore be a compare one to the other. |
