Rad1cal:
Are you intentionally dumb or what ? What preloaded "microsoft suite" are you talking about or you just wanted to be stupid.

Imagine fools trying to justify this fraud

don't mind some fools jare this is just the height of stupidity when you claim you are saving N8B to hard copy books but spending N9B on e books excluding other costs

1. JAMB & WASC past questions for all subjects for a period of ten years on 17 subjects at a conservative estimate of N1000 per subject will give a conservative figure of N2,550,000,000 (N2.55 billion).
2. Virtual Classroom zone containing 51 audio tutorials estimated at about N5000 per session gives N38,250,000,000 (N38.25 billion) for 150,000 students.
3. 63 e-textbooks preloaded at a conservative estimate of N1000 each comes to N63,000 x 150,000 = N9,450,000,000 (N9.45 billion)

plus extra N200M

"Aregbesola, the Governor of the state, who conceived the whole idea while window shopping in an electronic store, announced during the launching that the total cost of the project is slightly above N200 million" thats for 150,000 tabs and N2.55 B for JAMB and WAEC past question, N38.25 billion for virtual classroom, 63 e-textbooks preloaded at cost of N9.45 billion

StOla:
I am not a media representative for either state's government.

I believe useful information should be found on the state's website and from people who are resident in either state.

I have not heard that Osun state schools are suffering unchecked dilapidation. Instead, the news coming from Osun has been about the government commissioning great structures and promising to do more. I believe the bulk of the positive news that has emanated from Osun state since Aregbesola's tenure has been about the investments made in education. For this singular reason, I expect Osun to compete favourably with any other state in Nigeria.

While the pictures in the link you have posted look good, you sure haven't seen the pictures of the schools Aregbesola commissioned.


The bone of contention here is about the OP falsely propagating information about the cost of the Opon Imo project and comparing this false cost to the cost of laptops bought by Anambra state.

A storm in a tea cup.

StOla learn how to use your brain OP made a mistake qouting osun spent N8B but they spent over N50B agreed OP is wrong but nobody cares about OPs mistake we are all addressing the scam which is outrageous at N8B that op is claiming but in actual fact osun state govt spent way more than N8B

after that lets look at WAEC result from http://dailypost.ng/2014/08/29/2014-wassce-statistics-show-states-highest-percentage-pass-possible-cause-mass-failure/ pay attention to the bold lettering

The Statistics of result released by the West African Examinations Council for the May/June WASSCE 2014 shows that, Anambra, Abia and Edo states came top as best performing states with 65.92%, 58.52% and 57.82% respectively

Borno, Taraba, Niger, Nasarawa and Oyo states fell within the 15-24% range. Others within this bracket are Plateau, Osun, Cross River and Kogi states.

StOla:
What has the post you quoted got to do with the debate about the cost of the project that the OP falsely posted?

What has it got to do with me making you look like a fool, just because you lied that you read the whole of the 1st page of the thread but somehow missed the crux of the debate?

Next time, never rush to make comments.

you are just a shame to humanity your dumb ass still cant figure his out
OP posted osun state govt spent N8B on opon imo and i posted thats a waste you came after me in your stupidity and foolishness that they saved N8B and didnt spend N8bB and you stated opon imo is at no cost to the state govt

now read slowly and carefully so you can come out of your stupidity and foolishness

you are right osun state govt claimed they saved N8b (false claim)

opon imo project set back the govt N50billion and this project is over inflated the fine op made a mistake by posting they spent N8b but in actual fact they spent over N50B its either you benefited from the money and thats why you cant think straight or you are just slow its not your fault but because you are just too stupid to understand the fact that we are all talking about money wasted and not OPs mistake but if you want to dwell in your shallowness please OP Itoroetti change the cost of opon imo from N8.6B to N50.45B for 150,000 units so this idiot called StOla can reason like a normal person and not like a goat

StOla provided this link
http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/06/19/opon-imo-inspirational-message-from-state-of-osun/
and from his link we can put a cost to what was spent on Opon Imo "Aregbesola, the Governor of the state, who conceived the whole idea while window shopping in an electronic store, announced during the launching that the total cost of the project is slightly above N200 million" thats for 150,000 tabs and N2.55 B for JAMB and WAEC past question, N38.25 billion for virtual classroom, 63 e-textbooks preloaded at cost of N9.45 billion

total cost of the project is even more than N8B from your post

tolulakin:
You really should stop reading news online and get down to physical verification of these facts. Yes, Aregbesola commissioned school buildings and I will take the last one as an example, the Wole Soyinka High School which is located in the town where I grew up.

1. The school was built in the very outskirts of Ejigbo and it is not standing on the premises of any of the present High Schools in Ejigbo.

2. Till date, the state government is still confused as to what modalities to be used in moving students into that school. Do they move a particular school completely or pick students randomly from all the schools?

3. That building is the ONLY High School Building that the government of Aregbesola built in the whole of Ejigbo Local Government. Every other High School in the LG are in the most worrisome States possible.

4. The education sector in Osun State presently is very understaffed while the few staff available are so demotivated that they hardly want to teach. Schools are not getting subventions, exams are being handwritten on chalk boards, students are being made to buy uniforms for 1950 per pair and all manner of silly trends.

Please stop believing the silly window-dressing, Aregbesola is just a master of propaganda. A lot of things are in a standstill in Osun at the moment and you never will find the truth on The Nation!

Thank you

Don't mind the idiot called StOla, he's delusional for the past few years Osun state has the worst waec results in the whole of Nigeria so why waste N50billiion on opon imo and claim you are saving N8billion they are not even spending

i have been to schools in ife and modakeke while in OAU, same goes for schools in Ede and Oshogbo and StOla is an big scumbag

StOla:
Dude, why do you insist on making a fool of yourself this early in the year?

You lied that you read the whole of the 1st page before making your comment, I urged you to re-read it, yet you are still wallowing in idiocy.
You so much remind me of the NSCDC guy who embarrassed himself on Channels TV, instead of just admitting that he did not know his agency's website.

I raised the issue of credible news source. With all the sources provided to shame the OP in the series of posts that ended the 1st page, you still ask me for a credible source? Are you mentally handicapped or what?

You asked for the cost?

http://pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/06/19/opon-imo-inspirational-message-from-state-of-osun/

You need proof that it saved N8.6B by eliminating the alternative?

http://www.channelstv.com/home/2013/06/03/opon-imo-will-save-osun-n8-4-billion-of-textbook-procurement-costs/

That you do not know the economic concept of opportunity cost, easily explains why you need to go back to secondary school, so you can be gifted with the Opon Imo to read it up cheaper than a teacher and text book would have afforded.
This singular action of yours would have saved you some funds, but I ask, where is your budget for the alternative forgone?

Both links have been provided to you by a 1minute view of just the 1st page of this thread. Even the first link has an excerpt on the same 1st page.
https://www.nairaland.com/1516418/opon-imo-aregbesola-vs-laptop#19521074

It is either you go see an eye doctor, or you need special education for the mentally handicapped.

Some mothers do have 'em.

this will be my last interaction with you because in your foolishness you keep contradicting yourself
I will start by letting you know I went to a public high school and its a big false claim that Osun state is spending billiions of naira on books if they are not spending that much how will they save it
I graduated from OAU so I am familiar with whats on ground I can talk of high school in ife and modakeke because we organised few outreach in ife and modakeke, i had my NYSC orientation camp in Ede and I know what I saw in public schools, i have friends that served in Osun and I know what their experience is so its a big scam for someone to tell be they spend N8B on books.

thanks for providing the links, and from your link @ http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/06/19/opon-imo-inspirational-message-from-state-of-osun/ your initial claim was oh opon imo is free UNICEF supported it the govt i saving N8b, lies lies lies ..... "Aregbesola, the Governor of the state, who conceived the whole idea while window shopping in an electronic store, announced during the launching that the total cost of the project is slightly above N200 million" thats for 150,000 tabs and N2.55 B for JAMB and WAEC past question, N38.25 billion for virtual classroom, 63 e-textbooks preloaded at cost of N9.45 billion

total cost of the project is even more than N8B from your post

.................................................................

so thanks for your link the actual cost of this project is N50.45 billiion for 150,000 students. who is the big fool now you of course
i will just address the cost of loading the virtual classroom that cost a whooping sum of N38.25B

All they did was develop android app and load it on the tabs so the only cost should be that of developing the app which should not be more than $15,000(convert @ $1=N260) will give N3.9M

I know your ignorance and foolishness still wont make you understand thank good we all have smartphones, if you need an app you either go to the app store to download it or you can actually sideload it from the APK.
the only cost involved is building the app but instead they multiplied that by 150,000
SCAM,SCAM SCAM

I guess you were part of the scam and thats why you blood is hot. [size=48pt]AWON OLE JATI JATI

StOla:
Many posters then in 2013 on this thread proved themselves to be fools, now years later, you just proved that the world will never lack fools.

It is good you find the cost ridiculous and you even made the effort to look up some features of the tablet, but did you also look up the cost of the project from any reliable source?
Do you see any source referenced by the OP? Do you believe every assertion made by any random anonymous Internet ID?

The Opon Imo project saved the Osun State government N8.6B, not cost.

Apparently, someone suffering from conjunctivitis saw the report and thought that he saw cost instead of saved. He decided to raise some unnecessary dust, by comparing it to another state's project, only to end up disgracing himself and quietly disappeared from the discussion.

Mind you, the Opon Imo was a UNICEF supported project, which was commissioned with much fanfare and participation by same UNICEF.

Do you think they do not know what N8.6B is, to have identified with such waste if it was so?

I repeat, take your time and read till the end of the 1st page. I will be waiting for your response.

May be you are the bigger the fool here going by what the op posted and if you have a link of how much was spent show me and the fact that you are a bigger fool saying you can't believe whats online shows the extent of your stupidity first the fact that UNICEF participated in the project doesnt mean the project was not inflated how much is the budget allocated to education for them to claim they are saving N8.6B show me history of them spending that and show me a proof the project is at no cost to the government.

its ironical you claim and i quote "Do you believe every assertion made by any random anonymous Internet ID?" and you foolish self will tell me read the first page to the end because a different random person said otherwise you need to get yourself checked bro

StOla:
Read the whole of the 1st page, when you realise your hasty assumptions due to the fact that you believe every rubbish typed on the Internet, come back here and type your apology.

2years past, yet hasty conclusions still prevalent.

Some things never change.

thats what i did before posting my comment and if i am missing anything I will be glad if you can point it out, inflating that shitty tab that costs #13,000 to #2.4 million can never be justifiable and to let you know no hasty assumption here i checked online to see whats all loaded in the tab and that still wont make up for the over #2.3million per tab

cost of building apps on android platform is about $500 - $5000 convert that @ #260 or lets go to high end apps like twitter with landing cost of about $15000 thats still about #3.9 million for the whole project not per tab so "EGBON StOla" how will you justify the excess spent on this project

the only point you can make is the project is not worth that much and thats not in this thread.

so STFU and reason before you type your hasty post.

FYI my very first statement is I am just seeing this fine its been two years that does not justify the fact that it was a big sham

I PRAY ONE DAY NIGERIA WILL PROSECUTE OFFENCE COMMITTED REGARDLESS OF HOW FAR IT GOES BACK IN TIME, AMEN

Just seeing this and this is really an eyesore its a big shame
both are bloody thieves

OPON IMO @ #8.6 billion for 3600
lets break the price down that brings the unit cost to #2.4million naira each for the tab

went online to check the features of this OPN IMO @ http://osun.gov.ng/education/opon-imo/device/
and its pretty much an android 4.0 tab with 512GB of RAM and some other apps loaded on it

the latest ipad pro http://www.apple.com/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-pro/32gb-silver-wifi is $700 lets convert @ $1 = #260 the tab ends up @ #208,000 most apps on it are free dictonary, bible.... lets say they paid for 5 apps and lets include logistics (shipping and handling) that will not amount to over two million mind you the shitty tab they are using runs at about $50 (#13,000)

same goes for the laptop and printers

this is just ridiculous and insane

I am a proud physics grad Bsc Engr Physics & MSc Physics

You can go down the academic line if you are ready to put up with the frustration you ll get from profs, but if your GP is good write Toefl and start looking at schools in the US or Canada for ur grad program where you can get funding to earn your degree

You can actually look into IT (which is a field i'm in and I am happy with it) find what interest you programming, DB admin, Networking, security, system admin....

you can go into core engineering but you ll need a graduate degree in that field

there is no limit just find what you like to do and channel your energy and resources towards it and you ll live your life happy
