Politics / Why Fayose And Seyi Makinde’s Fight Cannot Be Resolved by Solarababa: 1:58pm On Feb 25, 2021
Why Fayose and Seyi Makinde’s fight cannot be resolved

There have been several reasons for this feud between Seyi Makinde and Fayose.

Let me throw a little light into the fight which will give more clarity on Fayose’s motivation for this fight is beyond what anyone could think of

Fayose started by disrupting Seyi Makinde’s actions and conducts in giving the best leadership he can give the party (PDP) in southwest Nigeria. Fayose has said in a video severally that he wouldn’t let anyone disrespect Bola Tinubu because he is a Yoruba leader and number one presently in southwest Nigeria. Contrary to Fayose’s claim, Seyi Makinde has never been in any way rude to Bola Tinubu except for when he was wooed to come and join APC after he became the governor.

Click here for the video

APC chieftains have been pushing for Seyi Makinde’s impeachment too and they have been assuring the public that they have set two traps for him and he can’t escape the two, Teslim Folarin (a serving Apc senator from Oyo state said this) VIDEO HERE , Adebayo Akala also assure the people of Oyo state that APC will be in power before the end of the four years tenure of Seyi Makinde’s administration, one of the suspected reason for the Fayose’s attack, terrorism, and criminality in Oyo state






After the former governor of Ekiti state has done all he could to Makinde’s head to Bourdillon and most people have seen him and concluded that he was working for APC and they paid no attention or hold any regard for anything coming out of Peter’s mouth.

A few months ago, Ayo Fayose changed his strategy and started alledging Seyi Makinde to have been claiming to be his (Fayose’s) leader which never happened, Seun Okin of channels TV asked Fayose the reason for his fight with Seyi Makinde but he wasn’t able to state anyway, day or situation where Seyi Makinde has claimed to be ahead of Fayose as a leader in the party, directly or indirectly..

After all the shenanigans in the SW part of the PDP, Uche Secondus and other party officials have appointed the former Senate president Bukola Saraki to weigh in the feud and make sure both parties buried their hatchets. The fact of the matter is that Bukola trying to settle that fight knew it’s going to be a fruitless effort but he just has to do his job as appointed by the party and the high esteem the party is holding him. So that you can understand this better, let me throw you back to the game of Ali Modu sheriff which Fayose played in PDP at the national level while Oshokomole was the governor.

Ali Modu Sheriff a former governor of Borno state became the chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP through Governor Ayodele Fayose’s support in 2016, one of the atrocities sheriffs committed in PDP was getting supports and funds from APC Godfathers to fund weaker candidates in PDP primary elections or rigging PDP primary elections for the candidates with very low popularity so that such weak and unpopular candidate will grasp on to the ticket and be easy to be defeated for APC in the main election (usually governorship by-elections). Many PDP members were against the chairmanship of Ali Modu sheriff while he was contesting because of his role in the Borno state insecurity affairs that brought a lot of criticism on Goodluck Jonathan’s Administration and paved the way for APC and Buhari’s Presidency but Fayose dominated the selection affairs and got the sheriff’s chairmanship he wanted.

Fayose was playing these games, party members could see what was going on but couldn’t confront him because he is one of the few surviving PDP governors and the Only governor in the southwest during his term, so the power was so much. Wike is Fayose’s friend and when he got fed up, he stood up to the misconducts and called the sheriff out. Fayose knew the game is up and he dramatically led others in the removal process of Ali Modu Sheriff so as to cover the trail of his anti-party activities.

This has shown Fayose has always been an ally of APC and Tinubu who desperately want to seize the leadership of SW without him ever coming out as a Yoruba leader and also take Oyo state from Seyi Makinde, Fayose is also a man who love the attention of the media and always want to be in the news. These are the two reasons why Fayose and been unnecessarily warring with his fellow SW PDP chieftain and the public and the people of Oyo state need to shun all forms of tantrums and misinformation from Ayodele Fayose.

Politics / The Fgn’s Agenda On #endsars Mr Macaroni’s Arrest, And Why They Lifted Ban On Pr by Solarababa: 6:53pm On Feb 14, 2021
The FGN’s Agenda On #Endsars Mr Macaroni’s Arrest, And Why They Lifted Ban On Protesters Bank Account,


1. Segalink

Number one thing I want you all to know is that Sega link is never on Twitter or anywhere to curb police brutality, he is a machinery of the FG planted in Lagos and on social media to suppress the voice of the people clamoring for an end to police brutality

How is he doing this, by making sure all stories that can praise the effort of FG in combating police brutality is amplified and the ones that will expose the incompetence of the Government is squashed before it gets to the limelight.

let me drop my personal experience and I want you to know that after the incident I still support Sega a lot until after several other incidents that happened to other people that made me realize he is not what people think he is no personal issues with him, just saying things as it is

I have reported a case of a military neighbor who was harassing me with his Rottweiler to a police station but police were siding him because he was using some esprit de corps Lamba, I reported this issue on Twitter and Sega shunned it, some soldiers on Twitter helped me out with the case and referred me to his base in Ibadan and the little steps scared him off even though it couldn’t change much things, 3 months after, the guy eventually turned out to be a Fake Soldier, and at the same time a fake bank alert scammer and rapist of secondary school girls (you can Google Ayobami Onigbinde)after SARS officials came to bust him, everything in his apartment, including the Dog he was using to harass everyone in the compound, I was the only one who couldn’t take it

Segalink as well would not dip hands into any police brutality case unless it is almost a solved case, what do I mean by these? the case must have gained so much attention and reaction from people, and big influencers must have engaged it.

why is this strategy launched, every politically aware person know that there is Rivalry in APC between the Buhari faction and the Tinubu faction, #endsars has been around for almost a decade and Buhari’s side realized it will be one of the ways Tinubu will use to dehumanize his administration and plant northerners interest in the mind of Southerners. Police were killing people innocently in this country I know, but I want you to know that the September/October 2020 #endsars protest was a good move from Nigerian youths, but the sponsors are bad people who want to use the good cause to fight their enemies, if they have been able to achieve what they wanted (national crisis or impeachment of Buhari), the common Nigerian youths will be dumped, they have served the purpose they needed them for, police brutality will start again. in this country, the only solution to hardship on common Nigerians are fights between the elites, when they fight, that’s when common Nigerians benefit, Buhari might never think of all the MSME loans, survival funds and grants shared in the country, they are meant to calm the people’s pressure, sorry I diverted off segalink’s case but just to throw more light on that



2. Why Government Unfreezed #endsars protesters account:

The Panel set up is to majorly to cripple the #endsars movement after Government has attended or think it has attended to the major clamoring of the #endsars protest which is fulfilling the 5 point agenda. Knowing that politicians are behind this movement, they need to crush those protesters totally. they mixed the members of the panel with their own people and bought some of the youth representatives, they are the spies for them

So while they conclude that the Lekki massacre never happened and they know it will lead to more protest, the real #endsars protesters were already cautious of going out and even wanted to cancel the Saturday morning protest but the spies geared them on so that those spies will stay at home while the real frontiers go and protest and get arrested, the plan is not to hold them totally but to cripple them like sowore (seize international passport, house arrest, restriction to a state, the unnecessary arrest upon arrests, so that their movement will be rendered useless), since they have infiltrated them, they feel safe with them as a toothless Dogs, so they released their accounts to avoid unnecessary noise, (You know na small wisdom old person dey take to run for cow)

3. Dipo and Co’s trap

People like Dipo Awojide were pushed forward by the federal government to calm people down on Twitter so they can come to compromise with the government, coordinated the Zoom meeting that hosted Dangote, Elumelu,(Buhari boys) with fkabudu and Co so that panel set up can be easy, this same was the one cheering people up for the Saturday 13th February protest, saying he is with the #endsars protesters but never with revolution now, hahaha, you know why? because #revolution now people haven’t been infiltrated with spies, #endsars movement have been killed, the protest was like the nailing. Now you see why they feel so safe to release the bank accounts of these guys…..

there is more I will still reveal, but I don’t want to postpone it any more, you can press the subscribe button at the left-hand corner of the screen to get notified whenever I am busting myths and propaganda of the political class, that’s what I do

Research from all these aforementioned authors, but most of the informations are from iwe itan ibadan by Oba Akinyele
Demayour:
oyaaa....Ibadan historian. You didn't tell us where you're quoting your history from or was it newly invented by you? Was it written by Toyin Falola, Keneth Dike, J.F Ade-Ajayi, Bolanle Awe, Claude Ake or Oba Akinyele? If it has no connection to any of those, it's written to fill the trashcan then.

History of Ibadan Part 2: How Lagelu found Ibadan the first time

The history of ibadan started from the first fact that the name Ibadan was derived from "Eba Odan" meaning the town founded beside Odan = Desert/savanna. Ibadan was founded by a man named Lagelu. He is a warrior in Ile Ife they also Praise him as "Lagelu Oròó àpáta májà". He is bold courageous and fierce in the war front

How Lagelu left Ile ife

Suddenly one day, he took his children, wife and every other thing he could take and left the town Ile Ife just to go and found his own self founded and established town. This kind of thing Lagelu did is not something to be surprised about as it is the usual way of heroes to show strength and mightiness because someone who is not brave and strong enough couldn't do enter a thick evil forest while leaving his people behind, therefore people like Lagelu would go into an uncolonized land and become a town head of their own. This was also the same time Telu left Ile Ife and founded a new town of his own at Igbo Orita but when it became too uncomfortable, He and his people left to found another place now known as Iwo today. This Telu is the ancestral Grandfather of Oluwo who is the king of Iwo today. This is one of the reasons why most Yoruba historians do say the founders of all towns in the Yoruba land have come from Ile Ife.

This was how Lagelu made his own choice to leave Ile Ife to found Ibadan. Lagelu never named his town when he founded it, the area where he founded it, the environs and the people who pass by and through the town to and fro gave it a name because this town wasn't established on the field nor the forest but it is between the field/savanna and the forest so people started calling lagelu ''Olu Eba Odan'' which means the ''head of the place along the savanna'' and the town itself was called ''Eba Odan'' This was how it metamorphosized after the frequent pronunciation of several people from ''Eba Odan'' to Ibadan. So if you observe Ibadan very well, you will see that it is between the rain forest and savanna, neither in the rain forest nor the savanna.

The Location of Where Lagelu Founded Ibadan the for the First Time

Where Lagelu established Ibadan then wasn't the same place Ibadan is now, it is about an hour to two hours walk to where Ibadan is now, some elders said it was established along with Awotan market but this time we were talking about has been so long to even be able to spot any sign or landmark to establish the fact about where exactly it was established.

While lagelu was coming from Ile Ife, he passed through a town/village known as Ejigbo and he betrothed his younger sister to Elejigbo (king of Ejigbo) as a wife. This younger sister of Lagelu had a son with Elejigbo, the name of this son is called AKAASI, After founding and establishing Ibadan and he can have a place to call home, he sent for his sister and they came to settle with him in Ibadan.

After a short, while the town kept growing in economy and population, most of the passersby realized that this place is very comfortable for the residents and most often also started settling there and living with them. People in neighboring towns were also coming there for trading and economic activities because Ibadan was established at an open hilltop topography location and sales move faster than every other town around it. after several years, this town became a big one and one of the biggest in Yoruba land. History said the Population of the people in Ibadan at this time was about 100,000. There were 16 border entries to Ibadan then and that's why the proverb ''igun merin ni gbogbo ilu ni, merindinlogun ni ti Ibadan.'' The olden days Ibadan was so big that its iron smith workshops in it were about 70, unlike now when the smithing workshop (Ile agreed) is not up to 35 and the border entries arent up to ten.

After a short while Lagelu became a Famous man, he was so famous such that Sango who was the Alaafin of Oyo then gave him the title of ''Jagun of Yoruba land'' which means the Military General of the whole Yoruba Land. This title elevated the status of Lagelu and its town Ibadan because whenever Alaafin want to wage we on any rival town, Lagelu and his Ibadan warriors were going to be the ones to take up the action and fight against such town. At this time, Alaafin is the ruler of the whole Yoruba land including the Ifes, the ijebus the egbas and every other clan or group of Yoruba people. Lagelu is no more a small personality and his wealth and ruches grew in multiples. but it was a pity that this great town known as Ibadan got destroyed, dispersed and went into extinction in less than 100 years after it was established. But before the destruction of this Ibadan town, they had peace, good economy, the people of Ibadan were in good health having food in abundance till their unexpected calamity befall them

History of Ibadan Part 1: How Ibadan was Before it was Founded

Before it was founded, The city called Ibadan and its environs were nothing but a thick forest with no settlement, not a settler. This forest served as a boundary between Igbo town known as Ilu Igbo and Ilu Odan. The ijebus (forest) and Egbas were living in Igbo while the Oyos were living in Odan (savanna) while the forest separates them and the land of this forest belongs to none of both sides, it was only a neutral ground. This forest was called IGBO IPARA meaning Ipara forest.

The forest was like it was described with no-one living there until Lagelu from Ife and founded the town as Ibadan.

The first Settlement Inside Forest

The first settlers in this thick forest called Igbo Ipara are hooligans, people with Questionable characters, runaway boys and girls and people with all sorts of immoral behaviors. Most of these hooligans came from egba, ijebu,  and Oyo and they started meeting and hanging out in small groups inside this forest and eventually this Ipara forest became a territory gang of truants and hooligan. That's the source of Yoruba proverb that's being said that ''Asiwere tii wo igbo ipara lo'' which means ''a weird person who goes/live in Ipara forest'' this proverb tells a lot about the people who live here.

As time goes on the population of the people living in the forest started increasing but they never founded it, organized nor name it as a town. Stealing, terrorism bandit practices are the daily jobs and they disrupt the peace of small neighboring towns by enslaving them. These hooliganism and thuggery kind of behavior is the foundation of the place Ibadan occupied today.

During the time of those thieves and bandits, these forests haven't become a town and it has no other name other than Igbo Ipara until Lagelu left Ile Ife for the IPARA forest and settled there and founded it as a town properly. The crazy and weird ones he met there fought him and tried to chase him away but after realizing he is a warrior, they became happy that they have found someone to lead them better in their evil deeds which is what they know how to do best (constituting violence and nuisance)

Within a very short period of time, the founded town became big and the insane people of the IPARA forest started becoming sane. This was how the Ipara forest changed from a forest to a town eventually named as Ibadan By a man known as Lagelu.

The political roots of this because Power is fast slipping off the hands off other factions of APC and the CPC faction is trying to trying to grab the whole country try to itself fast and leave the ACN (TINUBU) faction out of the setting

These two factions have connived to annihilate the N-PDP faction and decided not to give them what rightfully belongs to them according to the amalgamation agreement they used to for APC

the CPC faction was expected to be holding the presidency while nPDP to be holding the legislative while the ACN holds the party

The CPC AND ACN faction connived to eliminate the powers and political relevance of the N-PDP which started by refusing and being against the ascension of Bukola Saraki to the seat of senate president but he found his way there and then problem sparked

Now the Saraki led n-PDP has been ostracized and the party is left with ACN (tinubu) faction and CPC (buhari) faction alone which they are trying to ostracize each other, Tinubu is having so much power in the legislative because he masterminded the pause to Kwankwanso, Atiku and Bukola saraki's political journey, Lawan and gbajabiamila are his loyalists.

Oshiomole his favorite has been suspended as well, a task masterminded by Buhari and his cabals

First of all, go and shave all your hair., wash the head every morning and evening, after washing, dry and rub with little methylated spirit

Secondly get Sodom Apple leaf which Yoruba call ewe
Bomubomu, Shea butter and aloe Vera, grind them together, with consistent usage it will go but might probably come back when you stop

Politics / Obasanjo And The 16 Billion Dollars Power Funds Looting Scandal: THE TRUE STORY by Solarababa: 4:00am On Mar 15, 2020
Obasanjo and the 16 billion dollars Power Funds Looting Scandal: THE TRUE STORY
There has been a lot of news and allegations about a certain amount of money that is being said to worth sixteen billion US dollars ($16,000,000,000) being looted under the pretense and context of fixing the power problems of Nigeria.

All the allegations about this missing fund were directed to ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo, and the late President Musa Yaradua's administration was the first time he was alleged to have masterminded the embezzlement.

The ill-health and sudden death of the Late Yaradua couldn't let the issue have a headway, so it is not in the time of President Muhammad Buhari that they started accusing Obasanjo of knowing about the allegedly missing $16bn
How the project started and what Transpired
The Name/Title of the project was the Nigerian national integrated power project (NIPP).

This project was conceived in 2004 when Olusegun Obasanjo was the President of the federal republic of Nigeria.

The main goal of this project was to address the insufficient power generation and unstable power supply with the wasting away of gas excessively which flares away from oil exploration in the Niger Delta region

The above-listed problems were planned to be tackled with the acquisition and installation of seven power plants.

The planned power plants include :

1. Ihovbor power station in Benin, Edo state

2. Calabar power station in Cross River State

3. Egbema power station  in Imo state

4. Ikot Abasi Power Station, Akwa Ibom State

5. Omoku Power Station, River State

6. Sapele Power Station, Delta state

7. Gbarain Power station, Yenagoa Bayelsa State

The Ikot Abasi NIPP power plant has been replaced by Ibom power of

Akwa Ibom State, Ibom power is a state Government Project and it was

a 190MW capacity invention that enables large scale transmission of

electricity all across the country.

Most of these Items and Engines was having low production capacity

with the hope that it will increase over time

The cost of executing this project was contracted for Four hundred and fourteen million US dollars ($414,000,000) for turbines and all other electricity generation equipment needed.
Corruption Allegations, Investigations, and EFCC involvement
During the time/administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, he set up a panel and committee that investigated Obasanjo and they couldn't found him guilty or have played any bad role of all they have acclaimed about him. The panel was led by Honorable Aminu Tambuwal

The volume of voices about this missing money gets to the highest since 2017 when the going gets worse between President Buhari and his former boss in the military (lol) in the person of Olusegun Obasanjo  and Sai baba has been making threats of ordering the arrest and prosecution of Ebora Owu by the EFCC but we haven't seen any action
What they have been able to do with the project
This project couldn't be completed before the tenure of Olusegun Obasanjo came to an end and Yaradua took over for him. Late president Musa Yaradua interrupted the funding of this project for two years, but despite all these challenges,11 power plants, and 4 federal government power stations has been parturition of this project
some of them are :

Olorunsogo II power station
Geregu Power station
Alaoji power station |
Omotosho II power station

Olusegun Obasanjo as well shed a few lights about this $16bn fuss in his book my watch in chapter 41,42,43 and 47. In 2018 Obasanjo said if Buhari needed an answer to his question of where the money is, he should read those chapters in his book and if he can't, he should tell his aides to read it and they explain it to him, (what is obj trying to say?)

Politics / Why The News Of Fasorantis Daughter Being Killed Is False And A Fake News by Solarababa: 7:35pm On Jul 20, 2019
First and foremost there has been unofficial reports that the incident whose news has been trending online for days is not true and apart from that i will be listing the red flags of the News that has made it false

Most Biographical information about the one time afenifere leader reuben fasoranti has been taken Down from the internet ,but the popular opinion and the population belives that the 94 years old fasoranti lost his first Born many years back out of 5 children he is known to have got.The first born is the late bunmi who died Years back according to records ,the second is funmi ,while the third born is funke who was repeatedly killed by fulani herdsmen the fourth and fifth born are taiwo and kehinde twins

Second red flag : Go online ,you can never find any social media account credited or that can be assigned to be owned by the assailed funke ,who doesnt use  Social media in this day and age, 80 percent of the market women have facebook accounts even though 50 percent of them rarely visit

Third red Flag : The picture of the Car she Drove in witg her driver has been all over the internet  but the picture of her dead of shot body couldnt make it to the media


funke olakunrins nee fasoranti's car

I know a lot of you will be ready to fire shots with your mouth and keyboards but i am here to tell you and expose the hanky paankies that are being played by the people in power and their opponents just for the sake of securing their own grab to political offices,i am not here to support fulani nor here to say yorubas are anything as your minf would be thinking but i want you to be seeing things for what they are as nigerians and not what they are being painted to be ,that is only when we Nigerians will be able to see well,make decisions and as well hold the Goverment responsible for the right thimgs not beimg done and as well not using heache medicine for stomach pain

My Advice to the people in all arms of goverment is this : The goverment should look for the corpse and find out if she is thebperson alledged to have been killed ,that sounds like unnecessary to some people because we are talking about the loss of human life in a Family but lets look at it this way by flashing back the Chibok school girl incident,the News was later Declared authentically to be false after jonathans goverment is Gone and the people who fabricated the Story has achieved their goal,No nigerian bother to think how it is possible for terrorist to drive throught a state that is under emergency Rule,carting away over 100 girls ,the operation reported to have lasted over 3 hours without being challenged by the soldiers and other security operatives

This is not to protect the incumbent Goverment or tackle goverment oppositions but to enlighten Nigerians so that Politicians will Stop using Media influencers,trends,newspapers to play our emotions just ,to defeat their enemies While they dont actually care about the average Nigerians
