Nigerians and Nigeria, smh.

Why can't leaders set up systems and structures? Can every single graduate have the opportunity of meeting the state governor? What happens to those who can't have that opportunity?

dingbang:
it was his turn to succeed..

Shiitposter:


Even if he had 2.1 or 2.2, that confidence he used to approach the governor is what got hin the job

dingbang:
it was his turn to succeed..

INTROVERT:
I wonder what all those 2.2 and third class people will be thinking

Drama as Corper who sought Photograph with Fayose gets Automatic employment

Osamwonyi Bright Osas is a graduate of Political Science and Public Administration who is observing the mandatory one year National Youth Service Corps(NYSC) programme at the College of Education, Ikere-Ekiti.

Luck  came his way as he encountered Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose when the came to Ikere Ekiti for on the spot assessment  of the third phase ongoing Ado/Ikere road dualization on Thursday 20th April, 2017.

Governor Fayose had finished the supervision and was on his way to his bus when Osas accosted him, "good afternoon Mr. Governor, I am a native of Edo, I relocated from Adamawa to Ekiti State because of my love for you,  I follow everything you do religiously online, I love you so much and I pray God take you higher and higher. I graduated from UNIBEN with a first class in Political Science and Public Administration, one thing I pray thee Sir, please allow me snap with you Sir", Osas who was in NYSC outfit begged.

Without blinking an eyelid, the governor obliged and photographers did the needful. Immediately after this, the unusual happened, "go to the provost tomorrow, tell her I asked her to give you automatic employment", Mr. Fayose said.

Osas who was overwhelmed by the governor's gesture went on his kneels in appreciation, thanking God and governor Fayose for the favour. Speaking with newsmen after the encounter, Osas said "I am overwhelmed seeing the governor of Ekiti State today,  he's an amiable leader and he is so down to service, when I was in school as an undergraduate I do read many of his speeches on what governance should be, on how to move Nigeria forward.

"I am in love with the fact that he's fearless, he discharges his duties without fear or favour, that is one of the qualities I cherish in him. I learnt from him that for you to rule successfully, you must appreciate the common man, he is a very good friend of the masses,  seeing him come so close to the people inspires me, I was just coming from my CDS now and I saw him here, I was so happy and I said I must see him before he leaves and that was why I accosted him.

"I just thanked God for what happened now and I pray God bless him abundantly. He has just called the provost that I should be retained, that I should be given automatic employment, permanent employment, he called the provost and the provost said first thing on Monday I should come with my CV. I just want to appreciate governor Fayose."

U av a point. Buh d guy sef smart, e had planned it successfully, ask me why?


For him to have told the gomina gomina his first class status, means he's surreptitiously had a plan for an automatic job



Quite machiavellian. I like the guy. Na smartness

ephi123:


I am happy for him, but this is not about him, it's about the bigger picture.

Our youths have been reduced to
animals eg police dogs, who get
rewarded for performing complex
tricks aimed at entertaining the ruling class.

What a country!!

dingbang:
why didn't u give everyone monies when u called for such?,didn't you think it was for d bigger picture too?

He had a chance and he seized the opportunity.. Am very sure there were other corpers there who were feeling too big to meet the governor.. And also,,Fayose is a philanthropist, tomorrow he can still do the same to another person.. Its just not possible to help everyone at the same time.. Am sure you are aware of that.


That scenario can be likened to the people who struggled to meet Jesus.. Its not as if they were the only ones poor or blind or physically challenged.. But as wise as they were, they seized an opportunity.

ogbiwa:
Good one. However I smell some things not right with this story. How was he able to walk up to, and strike a conversation with a governor with all the stern looking security officials around the governor? Do you know how many layers of security usually surround these politicians when they're walking? He'll first have to wade through the crowd of other onlookers (he obviously cant be the only one with desires to snap with the governor) then there will be soldiers there, armed mobile policemen, then SSS agents (abi DSS) then an inner circle of the governor's aides. Were they all sleeping when he slipped through? Or did he beg all of them to pass through? Or was it just grace

ephi123:


You are looking at it from a completely different angle.
How many people can meet the governor? This guy is only one individual.

Leaders are supposed to provide an environment where anyone can succeed using their skills, the job opportunities should be there for those who are willing to work but we all know the reality is different. All these one off stunts will not create a successful community. Create an environment where people can fish rather than giving fish to one or two people.

dingbang:
but the government is trying na..aren't they creating an environment where people can fish? We can't just be satisfied everyday..

I tell you. Our youths are having to beg for their entitlements and rights. It's sad.

ayoniakins:


This has nothing to do with being reduced.

The journey to the top starts from beneath. This guy sure have everything planned out. He is just using this has a stepping stone....

Ajewealth123:
let me enlighten you about grace.
Grace is when we have millions of jobless graduates and you that is yet to finish serving gets an automatic employement.
Receive sense
Receive Jesus.
And pls stop quoting me,you've been noticed.

Blessed96:


why won't it be the way it is? when most of us dnt even know our common rights. we elect these people to manage the first of our states, LGAs and so on..yet they become gods over us and do whatever they want with our monies. yet some us still have the nerves to say "they are trying naa". trying how naa? they where simply entrusted with these offices to created and manage programs that will impact the people they govern in a positive way..the monies don't from their private businesses or pockets.. so, again how are they trying

TinaAnita:
Oh my God! This is so touching. *tears*
At least Fayose didn't tell him "Go and Die" like Oshiomole.
His life just changed forever within a few minutes. I'm so impressed by Fayose's wonderful gesture
