Politics / Farmer/herders Clash: Never Allow Disputes Degenerate Into Violence ― Abiodun by OriginalOmoOgun(f): 6:39pm On Apr 23, 2021 |
Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has warned the people of the State that they should never allow misunderstanding to descend into violence as recently witnessed in some communities in the State. Governor Abiodun, who gave the warning when the Committee on Farmer/Herders Conflict, submitted its report to him in his office at Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, noted that the recent farmers/ herders conflict in some parts of the State negatively affected the peaceful nature which the state was noted for. While saying urgent steps needed to be taken to address the menace, the governor urged indigenes and those who chose to settle in the State to continue to live in peace as they have done for ages. He wondered what would have caused disaffection among them, leading to a face-off, loss of lives, properties, livelihood, while many sustained various degrees of wounds in the three affected local government areas – Imeko/Afon, Yewa North, and Yewa South. He said the Committee was set up with a mandate to find out the immediate and remote cause of the crisis, quantify the losses from all sides and come up with recommendations on how the government could pre-emptive similar occurrences in the future, saying now that we have resolved this “never again should such dastardly skirmishes be allowed.” According to the Governor, “this Committee was set up by the government to basically look into what happened, quantify the losses from both sides and make recommendations to government on how to pre-empt similar conflict from occurring in the future. “We realized that this axis has a communication problem which prevented our people from communicating especially in times of crisis. We are solving this problem because telecommunication companies have started erecting their masts and very soon communication will improve in these areas”. A joint security outfit, made of the military, police, civil defence, local hunters as well as operatives of Amotekun, was drafted to maintain peace in the areas. The governor who stressed the determination of his administration to ensure that peace is maintained in all parts of the State disclosed that the State’s roadmap on security has been acknowledged nationwide, just as some State governments have indicated an interest in replicating similar steps in their states. Speaking earlier, Chairman of the Committee, Hon. Kayode Oladele, noted that farmers/Herders clashes were the major security challenges facing the State, adding that apart from having a negative impact on food security, it also bring hardship to the inhabitants of the affected areas as their sources of livelihood have destroyed. He pointed out that in carrying out the assignment, the Committee adopted a participatory approach where traditional rulers, community leaders, victims, and their relatives as well as other relevant stakeholders were involved. While thanking the State government for the confidence reposed in them, the Chairman said the report includes implementable, which if implemented, would go a long way in finally settling the crisis once and for all. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2021/04/farmer-herders-clash-never-allow-disputes-degenerate-into-violence-%E2%80%95-abiodun/ |

Nairaland / General / Update On Dam Rehabilitation In Ogun State, Nigeria by OriginalOmoOgun(f): 8:16pm On Apr 21, 2021 |
All the five corroded gates of the Ogun State Water Corporation’s dam undergoing rehabilitation at Iberekodo have been removed and replaced with new ones. Rehabilitation work is on schedule as electro-mechanical and other civil works are progressing. The dam, commissioned in 1962 with manually operated five steel gates, had its gates heavily corroded with significant loss of water noticeable during the dry season. Until the bold move of the present Prince Dapo Abiodun-led Ogun State Government, the dam had not experienced repair works since its commissioning. The goal of the rehabilitation is to ensure availability of enough water for processing and distribution to customers all year round. The Ogun State Water Corporation is reassuring customers that potable water supply will resume as soon as the rehabilitation work is completed. https://tdpelmedia.com/update-on-dam-rehabilitation-in-ogun-state-nigeria |

Crime / SARS Killed My Husband – Ogun Corn Seller Demands N20m by OriginalOmoOgun(f): 9:34am On Apr 16, 2021 |
A corn seller in Ajibawo community of Ogun State, Fatimo Elegbede on Thursday, demanded a sum of N20million as compensation for the “unjust killing” of her husband, Segun Elegbede, by the operatives of the defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad in the State. Elegbede had filed a petition before Ogun State judicial panel on police brutality complaining that her husband was shot and dragged away to an unknown destination by the SARS operatives. She narrated that the SARS operatives stormed her place in Ajibawo for an operation led by one ASP Adeyemi Ganiu in October 2016. Elegbede who spoke through her counsel, Femi Aina, recalled that her husband died in SARS custody, few days after his arrest In an attempt to get justice for her husband , the counsel had written several petitions to the police authority in 2016 and 2017, asking that an autopsy be conducted to unravel the mystery behind Segun’s death. The lawyer’s petition, it was gathered, prompted the office of the Inspector-General of Police to give an order that the Ogun State Police Command should “contact the family for post mortem”. However, the corpse was released to a nephew of the deceased, one Sunday Elegbede, who was said to have hurriedly buried same without the autopsy. Speaking before the panel on why the autopsy was not conducted as ordered by the IGP, the Investigating Police Officer, ASP Aina Morenikeji and the Officer-in-Charge of the State CID, CSP Olabode Olufemi, told the panel that Sunday, who paraded himself as the family head, led the deceased’s three children, Tosin, Titi and Gbenga to Eleweran, Abeokuta to demand for the release of the corpse without an autopsy. The police officers mentioned that Sunday and the deceased’s children came with a court affidavit, wherein they confirmed that Segun was involved in illegal possession of fire arms, pleading that the corpse be released without any need for a post mortem. But while being cross-examined before the panel, Sunday denied going to court to swear to an affidavit, adding that his uncle was never involved in illegal possession of fire arms or any criminal activities. Sunday, who said he could neither read nor write, explained that the papers he signed were given to him by the police. He said “I can’t read or write. I signed the papers as given to me by the police and I have the photocopies at home. I didn’t go to any court for any ‘paper’ and I didn’t give the police my photo. “The police read what is in the paper to me before I signed it, but they didn’t mention that I said Segun Elegbede was involved in illegal possession of fire arms. I didn’t say anything like that. My uncle had no bad behaviour. He was just unlucky. “I am sad that he died in police custody. He didn’t know anything about the incident he was arrested for. But, I just believe that a man would die one way or the other. That was why I came for the corpse. “I didn’t tell the police not to carry out an autopsy on my uncle before they took me to the mortuary to see his corpse. It was after the burial that I said I would not allow them to exhume the body for any examination.” Speaking further, he said, “The police gave us N1million for the burial. They sent it to us through a man known as Tokis in Sango.” In his closing remarks on Wednesday, the counsel to the petitioner, Aina told the panel that no amount of money would be enough to replace the life of Segun and the pains the wife and his other family members had been going through since 2016. However, Aina demanded that she be “compensated with a minimum of N20million, a maximum of N30million or in the alternative, in-between the two.” Aina posited that “all evidences before the panel pointed to the fact that the deceased died in police custody and there was a cover up.” According to him, “the police went as far as bribing a nephew of Segun with a sum of N1million and presented a false affidavit to prevent a post mortem, even when there was an order from the office of the IGP that the post mortem must be be carried out. Why the cover up? He added “Segun Elegbede earthly journey ended on October 20, 2016, but Fatimo Elegbede’s love for him never dies. That is why she has been consistent in getting justice for her late husband since he died close to five years ago. “And when she was giving evidence, she said one important prayer before the panel, that she should not suffer injustice in vain. Please, don’t let her suffer injustice in vain. It is Segun Elegbede now, we don’t know who the next victim would be.” https://platformtimes.com.ng/2021/04/16/sars-killed-my-husband-ogun-corn-seller-demands-n20m/ |

Education / OAU To Lift Ban On Students’ Unionism In Honour Of Late Yinka Odumakin by OriginalOmoOgun(f): 6:52pm On Apr 13, 2021 |
The Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, Osun State, has said it will lift the ban on students’ unionism in the institution as a tribute to late Yinka Odumakin. According to the Vice-chancellor, Prof. Eyitayo Ogunbodede, he described the death of Afenifere’s spokesman, Yinka Odumakin, as not only tragic but a monumental loss to the country, the human rights community and OAU. The statement read, “The Vice-Chancellor, Professor Eyitope Ogunbodede has paid glowing tribute to Yinka Odumakin on behalf of the Management, Staff and Students of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife. In particular, the University rightly recalled the fact that Yinka was the Public Relations Officer of the virile Students Union from 1986-1987. “However, in his lifetime, Yinka Odumakin always acknowledged that the experience acquired by him as a student leader at the Obafemi Awolowo University contributed to his development and understanding of the society. Consequently, he had cause to express concern over the penchant of the Management to proscribe the virile student union of the University. “Therefore, the best tribute that the University can pay to Yinka is to lift the proscription imposed on the student union of the Obafemi Awolowo University as soon as possible.” The late Afenifere leader died last Saturday at the intensive care unit of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital where he was being managed for respiratory issues due to complications from COVID-19. http://naijanewsdirect.com/oau-to-lift-ban-on-students-unionism-in-honour-of-late-yinka-odumakin-naijanewsdirect/ |
