Governor State of Osun, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, Wednesday, visited victims of flood and he expressed sympathy with those affected in Osogbo Osun state capital. Areas affected by the flood include Rasco, Gbomi, Oke-Onitea, Fiwasaye, Obate where some of the residents’ properties were washed away. Aregbesola in a statement by the Director Bureau of Communication and Strategy Mr. Semiu Okanlawon, was quoted as speaking during his tour of the affected areas. The Governor said the flood occurrence took the state by surprise judging by the heavy investments of his administration on flood prevention since 2011. “Considering our efforts in the past at ensuring cleared waterways, we never expected this. Our government deeply regret the flooding that has affected our people,” Aregbesola told residents who came to listen to his words of comfort at the scene. Since 2011, the government had been embarking on massive dredging of waterways in all parts of the state in order to stave off such disasters. After the tour which took him to all the areas affected Aregbesola said, “I have moved round to commiserate with the victims whose properties were affected by this disaster. “We have been quite committed to ensuring absence of this calamity since the advent of our administration as we have been regularly dredging the waterways on annual basis and as a matter of fact we are still very much indebted to those who normally work with us to ensure cleaning of our waterways.” The governor attributed the development to what he called the negative impact of people’s activities on the environment adding that a huge accumulation of wastes remains a major invitation to flood. He said, This happens mostly when the negative activities of the people impact on the environment as we have seen a huge accumulation of wastes blocking the free flow of waterways.” Pastor Dayo Oluwafunmi of the Christ Apostolic Church Gbomi area while speaking with Governor Aregbesola during the tour commended the governor for what he called the government’s previous efforts at preventing what used to be the annual disaster before the advent of the Aregbesola administration. He said he was sure that the government had done well in preventing flood but for this latest one. http://www.naijapopular.com/2016/09/aregbesola-visits-flooded-area-in.html?m=1 CC: lalasticlala

As shared by Facebook user Efe
Okposio.
He wrote in his Facebook wall, Some
weeks ago I drove into the
Mobil filling station on Teaching
Hospital rd Gwagwalada Abuja to get
fuel. Unknown to me 30k dropped off
the car when I opened the door. Whe
I got to my next stop to pick some
things I discovered the money way
missing.
After driving around for about 30min
I decided to check the filling
station. When I asked Esther the
fuel attendant about the money. She
just stepped into their office and
brought my 30 thousand. She could
have denied seeing the money and I
couldn't have suspected her. But sh
brought the money out. 30k is her
two months salary but she rose above
it.
So when next you're in Gwagwalada
Abuja and your fuel is running low.
Stop by at Mobil filling station on
Teaching hospital rd. Ask of Esther
and give her a good tip. http://www.naijapopular.com/2016/08/man-narrates-how-filling-station.html?m=1 mod: pls move to the right section. CC: lalasticlala

Two years after he dumped the
Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) for the All
Progressives Congress (APC), former
governor of Osun State, Prince
Olagunsoye Oyinlola has said his
removal from the PDP led to its
downfall from power.
The former governor disclosed this
while answering,questions on an
Osogbo based radio station, Rave FM
programme named Frank Talk, on
Friday to mark the 25th anniversary
of the creation of the state.
He lamented that he was left alone
by the PDP members in Osun state
during his trial and travail in the
party.
Oyinlola said: “As a leader, I
advised Iyiola Omisore to shelve the
ambition of running for
governorship,
because I believe he has an
albatross
on his neck that would not allow us
to scale through.
“But Omisore ignored my advice, went
ahead to contest and got the result
he deserved.
“Later he came to meet me in Abuja
that he would love to contest. That
was what caused the whole mess.
Omisore became uncomfortable and
when
he realized that my position as the
secretary of the party might disturb
his ambition,Omisore pitched his
tent
with Goodluck Jonathan and worked
for
my removal.
“Many prominent people, including
former President Olusegun Obasanjo,
Senate President David Mark and
others pleaded on my behalf but the
president refused. That was what led
to the formation of new PDP.
“Where were Osun PDP members when I
was being ridiculed as a member of
the National Executive Committee
of the PDP, being asked to appear
before disciplinary committee and
illegal disciplinary committee in
Osun State? Where were they? They
were all laughing and mocking me.
“They were conducting the affairs of
the party in the state without
reference to Oyinlola because they
felt Oyinlola was of no electoral
value. It was until when they
wanted
to start campaign that they came to
meet me, after my suspension as the
party’s national secretary has been
enacted.
“They came to me because there was
nothing for them to campaign with.
What did Omisore do as senator? It
is the worse era that PDP had in
Osun, that is the truth.
“Where were these people that say I
should not decamp when all these
things were happening?
“When the entire national working
committee of the APC visited me in
Okuku and pleaded with me to join
the new movement, the PDP people
were there doing nothing. They were
so sure that with the dollar money
and other things, they would get
things in their favour. They have
forgotten that the law will not
allow anybody to do anything funny.
“It is my own personal conviction to
join politics and decamp to the APC.
Those who believe in me followed me
to the APC. It is my personal
decision to be a politician and when
I see that issues are not going to
favour me and the people I
represent, I took a good decision.
“It is not about how many of them
approached me when I was removed as
PDP national secretary illegally,
not
even a protest came from Osun
State.
None! Oyinlola was left alone in
the
battle. I went to court of appeal
and even to the President, nothing
changed.
“Let me remind our people that it
was the removal of Oyinlola as
secretary that led to the movement
of those PDP governors that left th
party for the APC. I warned them-
the
PDP! I made a press statement on
the
13th of November 2013 where I told
them pointedly that if I don’t
return as secretary of the party,
the PDP would stop being a ruling
party.
“And I said the party would tear
from top to bottom. God is answering
the prayer now. After I made that
statement, the next thing I heard
from Chief Babatope was that
Oyinlola was playing God. I told
them that I was not playing God;
that they are the ones that have
cheated the son of God and he will
fight for me. God is doing that
happily.
“When I was moving to APC, I told
my
followers that I am not moving
because of political appointment.
God
has been so good to me in my life.
If you look at my life from
beginning, who would have thought
that an orphan at 9 years of age
would grow up to become what the
Lord has made me to be.
“I am contented with what I am at
any given time. As of today, I have
no children in school that am paying
for. When I was offered the position
of House of Assembly after joining
APC, I made sure I gave it to those
we met in the party, because I
don’t
want my first benefit in the party
to be found in my pocket.
“I have been governor for 10 years
in Nigeria. If not for gluttonous
attitude, a cow’s head is enough to
take cassava flour. How many people
in Nigeria have the grace of God to
have governed two states? Whether
you
like it or not, I was a governor in
Lagos and Osun States. To God be
the
glory
“My wish and prayer is that the
good
Lord will continue to prosper us an
allow us to achieve the dreams of
our forefather who founded the state http://www.naijapopular.com/2016/08/my-removal-as-national-secretary.html?m=1 CC: lalasticlala, Mynd44
