didnt i see adams oshiomole in this stupidity?
[quote][/quote]Well JJyou, i guess it was not His decision to go, they probably selected one Gov. each from each Zone in Nigeria. , but he could have said no, and also AC should have considered Adam's reputation before speaking against the supposed training.

THE Action Congress (AC) at the weekend described as an embarrassment and a terrible dent on Nigeria's image the claim by Harvard University in the United States (U.S.) that the Nigerian Governors' Forum lied over a supposed capacity building course for the state chief executives.

In a statement issued in Lagos yesterday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party, therefore, called on the Federal Government to investigate the veracity of the university's claim to determine which of the parties is deceiving Nigerians.

AC said: "If it was found that the governors' forum had indeed lied about signing an MoU with Harvard when the training document was only a draft - as claimed by the university - then the Federal Government should issue an appropriate reprimand to the governors' forum to prevent a recurrence. Of course, we also expect that the development will attract public opprobrium for the governors".

According to the party, anyone who has been monitoring the comments generated by the so-called MoU, especially among Nigerians in the Diaspora, will realise the negative publicity it has attracted to Nigeria on the international scene.

"If ever there was any blow to the government's re-branding project, of which the state governors are major stakeholders, this training MoU debacle is it.

"First, the necessity for such a training has been called into question. Then, the claim that the body representing Nigeria's 36 states and the FCT is nothing but a liar and a disgrace of international proportion, especially because it involves a top university in not just another country, but the world's only remaining superpower, where image is everything", the party said.

AC noted that at the first instance, it was nothing but a sheer misadventure for state chief executives, supposedly elected on the basis of their impressive manifestoes, to now seek to acquire - from a foreign university - the wherewithal to govern their states.

The party wondered why the governors had to wait to be elected before learning how to govern, calling their shameless quest at Harvard an indication of a serious inferiority complex and an admission of incompetence.

Its word: "State governors who have distinguished themselves in Nigeria - for example in Lagos starting from Alhaji Lateef Jakande to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and now Babatunde Fasola - did not go to Harvard to learn how to govern after their respective elections.

"Is it Harvard that will tell a governor how to provide decent healthcare, potable water and necessary infrastructure for his or her people, especially when the Harvard trainer has never visited Nigeria? Does the Nigerian Constitution allow a sitting state governor to take a study leave? Or is the fake MoU with Harvard estacode-induced as some have said?

"In any case, even if the governors are keen on refreshing their knowledge and expertise in governance, are they saying there is no institution in Nigeria that can do that? Do they realise that by their Harvard show of shame, they have passed a vote of no confidence in their own (state-run) universities, as well as the myriad of federal and private universities in this country?"

AC said the Harvard misadventure is yet another instance of the festival of profligacy in which many state governors have become key participants, a development that has ensured that the dividends of democracy have been elusive, even after 10 years of the much-acclaimed best system of governance.
