Ajimobi already killed those thugs before he resurrected them on assuming office

Thugs had never died in Ibadan, even during Ajumobi they still do their excesses, just few are reported. Remember it was during Ajumobi time a whole federal lawmaker was murdered in broad daylight and nothing happen till today

Governor Seyi Makinde brought a new dimension to the relationship between politics and the transport unions. He banned the NURTW and created the Oyo State Parks Management System (PMS).

The chairman of the Oyo State Parks Management System is Alhaji Lamidi Mukaila (aka Auxiliary). Auxiliary was a chieftain of the NURTW, but he fell out with others in the union and then Governor Makinde banned the union and made him the chairman of the Parks Management System. Auxiliary is also believed to be a political thug and an enforcer for the Oyo State Government.

Senator Teslim Folarin was a member of the PDP during the battle between Tokyo and Eleweomo, but he is now the APC candidate in the 2023 Oyo State governorship election.

At the Oyo State governorship debate, Teslim Folarin said that the creation of the Parks Management System was political and "even if you want to create such a committee, the person that they appointed as chairman is an ex-convict. What kind of message is the government trying to send by making an ex-convict the leader" ?

Governor Makinde responded to that allegation by saying, "The person that is calling someone an ex-convict, who killed Eleweomo and where's the file? It is still with me as governor of Oyo State. It is a criminal case, but I don't want to go into that now".

Teslim Folarin responded by saying, "Just because you are a governor does not give you the right to make irresponsible allegations.

If you are the governor of a state and you know who killed Eleweomo, then charge him to court. I don't think a governor should get involved in beer parlour politics".

Makinde interrupted him and said, "The file is with me".

Folarin replied, "Oya take it. Take it to court. Why haven't you taken it? I challenge you".

Anybody that was in Ibadan then, will know that eleeweome (nurtw chairman) was killed by a political party. I was at Iwo Road then when the eleeweomo mobilized their thug from Iwo Road to Academy where he was killed in a political campaign. That day was very terrible in Ibadan then

LilVast1:
To the people saying Seyi should take it to court
I’ll tell you there’s more to it
Man’s a great lover of peace, doing that will cause a whole lot of unrest in Oyo state

Regardless Seyi is winning again

MT:
Read what you wrote and analyse it again.

What wil cause protest? By charging someone who has been criminally alleged to court? So the Governor should not do the needful. Reflect on what you typed again.

seguno2:
If you don’t know the full meaning of legacy, why don’t you simply find out?

Read what you replied for understanding, instead of just rushing to reply. Abi you are a Russian ni?

Background.

Alhaji Lamidi Adedibu was the godfather of Oyo politics. He passed away in 2008 and this exacerbated a crisis that he had started.

Rasheed Ladoja was "elected" governor of Oyo State through the help of Alhaji Adedibu. However, Adedibu wanted to determine who was appointed into government positions in Oyo State and this led to a dispute between him and his godson. Governor Ladoja appealed to President Obasanjo and PDP Chairman Ahmadu Ali, but they both told him to do whatever Adedibu said. Ladoja refused and this led to a very serious crisis and violence in Oyo State.

In 2006, the Oyo State House of Assembly, acting on the orders of Adedibu and Obasanjo, "impeached" Governor Ladoja and his deputy, Christopher Alao Akala became governor. Akala was loyal to Adedibu and he had become antagonistic to Governor Ladoja before his impeachment. Ladoja went to court to challenge his impeachment.

Meanwhile, Alhaji Adedibu died in 2008.

Alhaji Lateef Akinsola (a.k.a Tokyo) was the chairman of the NURTW in Oyo State and Alhaji Lateef Salako (a.k.a. Eleweomo) was his deputy. However, there had been friction between the two since 1999. Tokyo believed that Eleweomo wanted to stage a coup and take over the chairmanship from him.

The friction between Tokyo and Eleweomo led to violence on the streets of Ibadan, but this violence was kept in check by Adedibu. However, with Adedibu's death and the war between Ladoja and Akala, the violence spiralled out of control.

The Senate majority leader, Senator Teslim Folarin and former Governor Ladoja and Tokyo were grouped on one side, while Governor Alao Akala and Eleweomo were grouped on the other side.

Things came to a head at the Oyo State PDP Congress in 2010 when Eleweomo was killed in broad daylight. There were allegations that Tokyo and Senator Folarin were responsible for the murder and indeed both men were arrested by the Oyo State Police Command. They had been arraigned at a Magistrate Court in Ibadan and were being tried at the High Court, but something happened.

President Goodluck Jonathan wanted to contest the 2011 presidential election on the platform of the PDP, but former Vice President Atiku Abubakar also wanted to be the PDP presidential candidate. President Jonathan needed all the help that he could get in order to win the primary election.

Senator Teslim Folarin was qualified to be a delegate at the PDP National Convention/Presidential Primary and he would certainly vote for President Jonathan, but he was in jail in Ibadan.

Suddenly (a day before the PDP Presidential Primaries) and without the knowledge of the Oyo State Government, the police withdrew the charges against Senator Folarin. The Presidency had arranged for a private jet to wait at the Ibadan Airport and it flew Senator Teslim Folarin to Abuja so that he could vote for President Goodluck Jonathan in the primaries.

unitysheart:
You are a shameless man. You may not like the man but no past governor promoted education better than TInubu. It was the same man that instituted one day governor arrangement for winners of the Spelling Bee Competition in Lagos. He was the one that paid for my NECO exams and which turned out to be the only O' Level certificate that I have till date. Yet, you said he de-emphasized education. You did not even stay within Lagos, you decided to generalize it to the South West. You are shameless.

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

How my information was wrong?
Eleweomo killed in a political campaign
Eleweomo was a nurtw chairman (thug).
Tell me how my information was different from your information.
I don't need to narrate how he was killed because I was not in the campaign, I don't go to campaign, the only information was that he was killed
