Makinde’s Actions Annoy Me, Ajimobi Already Paid For The Akobo Flyover He Re-awarded - Fijabi

By admin - March 28, 2021

Saheed Akinade-Fijabi, a two-term former member of the house of representative, has taken a swipe at Seyi Makinde, governor of Oyo State, for revoking the contract for the construction of General Gas-Akobo Flyover Bridge and circular road from the contractors handling those projects, alleging that Makinde is only playing politics with the lives of the people.

Makinde, OYOINSIGHT.COM understands, had few days ago flagged off the construction of the General Gas-Akobo flyover bridge which was re-awarded for a sum of N1.058bn. Abiola Ajimobi, late former governor of the state had initially awarded it for N1.464bn in 2017 and some skeletal works have been done before the current administration revoked it. Makinde had explained that in spite of the current high inflation rate, his government was able to save about forty million naira for the state in the new contract.

Also, the Makinde administration had last month ordered the contractor handling the 32.2km circular road project to stop work, claiming that the progress of work done was not satisfactory within the timeframe of the contract.

But speaking on BOTTOM LINE – a political programme on IBR 92.5fm Ibadan anchored by Aanuoluwapo Omorinde over the weekend, and monitored by OYOINSIGHT.COM, Akinade-Fijabi said the action of the government is annoying.

According to him, “sometimes, you get angry with some of these things. See that bridge at General Gas, Ajimobi has paid for it. As a governor, you now revoked the contract. It’s so sad. We should be crying for ourselves. A bridge that has been paid for, another governor now came, brought tent, chairs and said he is re-awarding it. This is a project the past government has paid for.”

When reminded that the government in the new agreement was able to save the state about forty million naira, the former lawmaker exclaimed “It’s a lie! Forty million naira when you have borrowed N150bn”.

“Go to Ring Road yesterday if you are coming or going from Ibadan, the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway just like five kilometres to Ibadan, you cannot enter Ibadan because they were doing the road. What could have saved that one was the circular road that the previous government has brought somebody to do, but you revoked it. All those trailers coming to Ibadan don’t need to come to Ibadan. There is no argument, this is sad”.

“Seyi Makinde is playing politics with the lives of the people and the people too, they don’t really care. The saddest narrative is that the followership don’t care. Now you will be complaining. Why must you complain? You don’t have to. That road, this Akobo road, they should have finished it long time ago but you reversed it saying you are saving forty million naira in a state that is as big as Oyo. You are saving forty million naira at the expense of people living in Akobo”.

He urged Nigerian youths to eschew bitterness and envy among themselves especially ahead 2023 if truly they desire better deal in the murky water of Nigerian politics.

If not for Ajimobi's arrogance and bad talks, this dunce called Makinde wouldn't have gotten a chance

Another raining season approaching and this scumbag won't complete Old Ife road, Akobo road, Iwo Road, even when Ajimobi already completed it to 80%

...learn not to comment on what you know not
I stay in Akobo
The flyover was already being fixed before the present government re awarded it and the initial contractor moved away
In fact not only the flyover but the entire road project from general gas to barrack junction
That's what all Nigerian politicians do
Significant no of them are unarmed robbers ..PDP OR APC

Don't believe rumours even if your read it or your friends told you.
Nigeria government don't pay for a contract before execution.
Getting your balance is even a war after a job well-done, they can owe you for years.
Government contractors can tell you better.
Ajimobi would have to be quite stupid(I know he isn't) to pay for a contract not yet executed.

When you read about "government award", "government signs MOU", or "government to spend certain billion" on a project,
it doesn't mean 1 Naira has been spent or will be spent.

He paid just like the way GEJ paid for most of the development under Apc..

Politicians are really confused

Ajimobi's style is unique...

All his infrastructure were paid 100% before project commencement..

He keeps project fund in commercial banks, while asking willing contractors to secure a loan with the contract certificate while Oyo State government stands as surety, mobilisation fund is released and upon completion of each phase of the project more funds are released

This was how Mokola bridge was completed in record time

I have done something similar to this before ( I requested for a thing) I knew the insults I got, I had to remove the post. It's not necessary in my house, we can meet at a opened place

This case is different because we are talking about sickness here. No one can mock you because it can happen to anyone.
Why I said this is because swollen legs isn't something you joke with which is symptoms of kidney issues
Reply eriokanmi . he quoted you, seems he wanna help

Say it louder.
Ajimobi was even worse. Most of Akala projects were abandoned by Ajimobi. Notable example is Teaching hospital in Ogbomoso.
There is nothing wrong if contract is revoked and re-awarded in order to remodel the project or save cost.

Hello sis, this has nothing to do with prayer. What you need is treatment.
Maybe you have bashed people in the past but there is no shame here because we are talking about life and death here
People may bash but your survival should be your priority not if people will abuse you or not

I know what I'm talking about. I can easily poison myself with these pains when some stupid people who really know me will insult me ( they are many on nairaland that thinks insulting someone is their joy). It's better they insult me without knowing me, thank God for some people that called me for some advices and way forward. I pray some people should visit me in Ibadan in any opened place to confirm my health.

Which state are you from?
Because someone like me from ibadan, no insult can even make me depress not to talk of killing myself no matter the insult no matter my condition
