bad step.

First 24hrs:

*He annouces on the acceptance speech he can't pay 30k minimum wage as all state don't earn the same and Oyo state don't have money

* Ends 3000 a year levy (365days) students pays to their schools for mentainance and other Service to ease burden on federal allocation, and make Parents contribute abit to give public school proper runing

*Dessolves constituitedly elected LGA bosses, and closest level of goverment to the rural people far from state capital

I can smell unnecessary sentiment here.

Did his predecessor paid 18k minimum wage? The answer is NO. And yet he still owed workers backlogs of salary and arrears.

The local govt executives dissolved were not elected, but were all handpicked by the outgoing governor. For the past 8 years all local government were pocketed by Ajimobi which resulted into total absence of any meaningful project at local government level.

What every Nigeria is clamouring for is free and qualitative basic education and payment of 3k o'er student negates this. Besides, our education sector is in total mess in term of quality and infrastructure despite the payment of that 3k. Ajimobi has done his own best the way he knows how to do it. If there are gaps here and there noted by the new governor, let him correct it and give us digital and transparent governance that will put Oyo state in the place of honour we deserve.

Bola ige, Olunloyo, Lam, Ladoja, Akala all ran a similar unrealistic welfare and charity Goverment in a Huge state like Oyo state, but financial liability of one of the highest.number of civil servants of a state in Nigeria, and building road accross long land mass like oyo couldnt make them get a second term until Ajimobi came with a more strict approach of governance and almost double the IGR making him have enough to impress the voters with roads and bridges to get a second term.

So he should leave them abi.. He should APC fraudulent LGA government... U must be joking..

Realdeals:
Weren't they democratically elected? this crass abuse of power by State Governors needs to be curtailed.

Enimoney3:
You are very correct! You have just spoken my mind. These guys were elected by the people. I don’t think it’s reasonable for elected governor to dissolve local council chairmen. If it’s constitutional it must be amended. By oracle of mainland.

A lot of people come up here to talk rubbish, was there a genuine local gobt election on Oyo state last year? NO.... The only party that participated in the sham election was APC.....PDP not other party never participated.... So u can't call it a constituted authority. All the Governor have being doing in the past few hours is in the right direction.... If u want to argue that, make sure u live and work in Ibadan and argue with fact, otherwise, get a job
