‘Day he swore naked with female lawmaker,others’

•Inside the shrine in his Shagamu home

•Inside the shrine in his Shagamu home

In the wake of the publication of the nude photograph of a member of the Ogun State House of Assembly, Hon Wale Alausa, there were still lingering indications yesterday that the whole story may not have been told, despite the huge controversy it has already generated.

The lawmaker’s nude photograph was published in The Compass newspaper, owned and promoted by Ogun State governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, with whom Alausa is said not to have the best of relationships.

And adding a fresh dimension to the saga, Alausa, in an exclusive chat with NationalLIFE on Friday, sensationally revealed that Governor Justus Gbenga Daniel, also swore naked at a shrine in his Sagamu home, in the presence of a female member of the State House of Assembly and some other lawmakers, sometimes last year.

While throwing the latest bombshell, the lawmaker representing Ijebu-Ode state constituency claimed that aside his nude picture published on Monday, there were other pictures, including those he took with the governor while both of them were stark naked, during the blood oath session last year.
Alausa alleged that the published photographs were manipulated to give the impression that he was alone in the shot. “The pictures were manipulated. I was not the only one there. There are some I took with Governor Daniel himself. He, too, was naked like me. There were also naked pictures of other lawmakers loyal to the governor. All members of the G-9 took the naked oath. I mean all, not one was left out,” Alausa insisted.

Furthermore, the embattled lawmaker challenged Governor Daniel to publish the remaining photographs in situ. According to Alausa, it is important that the public is not deceived in any way.

“Like I told you, the oath was taken in order for us to pledge our loyalty to Daniel. He facilitated it and participated actively. In fact, in order to convince me that he meant business, he stripped himself naked along with me and we took pictures too. I challenge him to also publish these in his papers, otherwise, he remains a liar and treacherous fellow.”

Asked if any female member of the House of Assembly took the nude oath, Alausa said not a single member of the original group of nine pro-Daniel legislators was excluded. “Male or female, as long as you are a member of the pro-Daniel group, you must take the nude oath. I am telling you that there are other pictures of the other lawmakers. We all took the nude oath in Daniel’s presence one after the other,” Alausa said.

Corroborating Alausa’s claim that Governor Daniel cajoled even female lawmakers to strip, down to their birthday, suit in a bid to convince him of their eternal loyalty, the Speaker of the Ogun State House of Assembly, Hon. Tunji Egbetokun said the report he got from some of the lawmakers who participated in the barbaric ritual confirmed that a female member of the House was involved.

“All of them were naked. A particular lady with a very big … these things (using his hand to describe the buttock, hips and breasts of the lady in question) even removed her own. Let him continue publishing the pictures. The Yoruba have a saying that ‘If a bastard in a household has not grown up, the house will be peaceful.’ Now, we have the bastard of Ogun State,” Egbetokun stated.

Asked why he did not participate in the oath taking exercise, the Speaker explained that contrary to what the governor and his propagandists are trying unsuccessfully to force down the throats of Nigerians, the nude oath sessions were only for lawmakers who want to pledge their loyalty to the governor.

“That is why I am challenging him publicly to publish my own picture if he has it. There has never been a time I pledged my loyalty to Daniel. My loyalty has always been to the State and my party, not to an individual. So, I was never part of the shameful ritual,” the Speaker explained.

“Let me tell you. I once took oath with him. But I did not take the oath naked,” Egbetokun added.
On the fears being expressed by his friends and associates that he may soon come under the spell of the oath he took with the governor, Alausa, who is representing the Ijebu-Ode state constituency in the House affirmed that no effect of the oath taking would come upon him in any way.

“Since he (Daniel) is the one that broke the oath by exposing what we did in secret to the world, there is no spiritual consequence of any effect on me, because I did not break any oath. What we agreed on was that I will not join in the party to impeach him. That, I will not leak the group’s secrets. Daniel has no honour. He has no shame. He is a ritualist and a completely dishonest person. The governor is a sodomist and a very treacherous individual,” the lawmaker alleged.

But in a sharp reaction, one of the arrowheads of the G-15 lawmakers, Hon. Hadijat Oladapo-Adeleye, put a lie to insinuations that she is the female lawmaker described by the Speaker.

“Apart from Alausa, I can confirm to the world that Governor Daniel does not have the nude photograph of any other progressive lawmaker (G-15 member) in this House again. If he has my nude photograph, let him cause it to be published because I am sure that it does not exist,” the female lawmaker quipped.
“We all pity Alausa. There was serious pressure on his family; that how can somebody from Ogun East, the governor’s constituency, join a group, which has been giving Governor Daniel problems? We learnt that prominent family members and community leaders coerced him and eventually succeeded in making him take an oath naked, that he would no longer fight the governor.

“He was alone in the oath-taking thing. The rest of us are not involved. It was like, they set a trap for him, that after taking the oath, they would release it to the press and then use it to send fears into the rest of us.”
Hadijat added that the oath-taking saga was only a digression, as she and her colleagues would not be deterred in “performing our oversight functions of making the executive arm responsive to the yearnings and aspirations of the masses.

Cool designs

My Chairman how far ? what do u have for me sir on what we discussed?

Blood oath mess: Count me out – Awujale By MOSHOOD ADEBAYO, Abeokuta

More Stories on This Section

[b]The paramount ruler of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona, whose name was mentioned by Hon. Wale Alausa as a key dramatis personnae in the raging oath-taking mess in Ogun State, has exonerated himself from the shameful act.

The monarch, whose name has also been dropped by Governor Gbenga Daniel, as one of those who laboured to mediate in the face-off between the executive and the legislative arm in the Gateway State denied knowing anything about the oath, which fallout was the nude publication of Hon. Alausa on Monday by a national daily.
Speaking through his Secretary, Mrs. Fisayo Akudu on Wednesday, Awujale said: “It is all lies and in any event there is no coherence and logic in his claim. It is all lies, I knew nothing about blood oath taking; I was not involved. I am a well respected Oba and my name should not be dragged into this.”

Meanwhile, palpable fears have gripped many political office holders in Ogun State following revelation by the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Hon. Tunji Egbetokun and Hon. Alausa, that most of them took oath at the instance of Governor Gbenga Daniel before they secured their tickets for their different political offices.

The PDP office holders are afraid that their pictures might be published in any newspaper because they were not sure that they were not photographed when they were taking the oaths.
Both Egbetokun and Alausa at different press conferences in Lagos and Abeokuta last Tuesday confessed that most of the serving political office holders, as well as chairmen of local government councils were under oaths with Governor Daniel.

Egbetokun, who addressed journalists at the Assembly’s Committee Room, Abeokuta shortly after he returned from Lagos where Alausa addressed similar conference, also stated that 80 percent of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state are spiritualists.

On his own, Alausa while giving an account of his nude photographs published by the Compass Newspaper stated: “Long before then, especially before the 2007 elections, shortly after the party primaries, Otunba Gbenga Daniel had ensured that most, if not all, of those seeking elective offices, including some serving members of the National Assembly, took the oath of allegiance to him.”

Continuing, the son of Otun Balogun of Ijebuland, Chief Agboola Alausa said: “You can ask your colleagues in the Ogun State House of Assembly, if they are honest, they will also tell you that there is no council chairman that did not take the oath before their elections.”

Egbetokun said: “I took such an oath right in the governor’s private residence in Sagamu in the presence of some former public office holders in the state, but I was not naked.”
Describing Governor Daniel’s publication of Alausa’s picture in his newspaper, (The Compass Newspaper) as a breach of trust, confidence and loyalty, the speaker said the nude pictures saga had not really brought any ridicule to the House.

His words: “We have not seen it as bringing ridicule to the Assembly because the issue is more political than governance and we are to legislate. We will investigate and take proper action.”
Meanwhile, concerned Ogun people, both within and outside, have been speaking on the publication of the nude picture of Alausa as not only ‘shameful but betrayal of trust’.

Those who spoke, which included serving political office holders and politicians, wondered why such a thing made in absolute confidence was made a public issue.

“It is very unfortunate. When the oath-taking saga first came out, I did not believe it. But the confession of the lawmaker that he actually took it at the instance of Governor Gbenga Daniel made the whole thing worse.
“This people have brought shame, ridicule and even have succeeded in smearing the good name of the state which our late illustrious sons and daughters struggled to build.”

He also lamented the alleged involvement of some prominent traditional rulers in the saga. “I cover my face as a chief from this state. What do our traditional rulers want in politics? They have lost their respect as our fathers who could be used and manipulated by politicians at the slightest opportunity. This is a disgraceful act.”[/b]

[b]Ogun Crisis: How it all started[/b]By Bayo Ohu

The ongoing political crisis in Ogun State that has virtually put leaders of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor Gbenga Daniel at loggerheads started after the 2007 general elections when the governor was alleged to have perfected strategies to take over the party allegedly to manipulate it to further his political interest ahead of the governorship election in 2011. In fact, the crisis has been centered around the politics of 2011 and which of the three Senatorial zones will produce the governor.

Indeed, the protracted crisis has polarized the State House of Assembly along two major groups of a group of fifteen members, now popularly being called G 15 and another group of eleven members in G 11. The G 15 is being led by the present Speaker of the House, Hon. Tunji Egbetokun and its primary objective was to antagonize the governor. It was alleged that there were plans by the group to initiate impeachment move against governor Gbenga Daniel. The G11 is comprised of legislators who are sympathetic to the governor.

The crisis and battle for supremacy at the House has led to impeachment of the former Speaker Titi Oseni who is a pro-Gbenga Daniel lawmaker. The G 15 had instigated her removal and installed Egbetokun who has since been championing anti-Gbenga Daniel activities. At a time, the legislative work at the House was paralysed as members from the two camps engaged in open and physical assaults during which some of them were critically injured. The State Police Command, which has also since been accused of partisanship was forced to shut down the House of Assembly complex, which led to a prolonged halt to legislative duties.

Fundamentally, prominent politicians in the state have been drawn into the fray. Specifically, former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello, Dr. Doyin Okupe and other eminent citizens of the state, especially those from Ogun Central Senatorial zone and the Egbas generally were believed to be at war with Governor Gbenga Daniel over his alleged plan to assist the Yewas/Awori people of Ogun East Senatorial zone to produce the next governor in 2011.

The story has been that the Egbas have always been determined to continue to dominate the political affairs of the state by producing the next governor after Gbenga Daniel in 2011. Along this political thinking, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello from Owu is believed to be very keen in becoming the governor. Speaker Dimeji Bankole too was rumoured to be eyeing the governorship. But his close aides and associates have denied this claim. According to them, Dimeji Bankole, as the number four citizen in the country today is occupying a position that is more important in political ranking than the governorship.

Dimeji Bankole, according to one of his aides is satisfied with his present political pre-eminence over a governor of a state. Bankole, he added has the entire Country as his constituency and he even control a bigger budget and have a wider political influence far more than what any governor can dream of having. He said: " Bankole should be left out of the crisis in Ogun State as he has no hand in whatever is happening there presently. What Bankole has been doing and will continue to do is to ensure that the House of Representatives work assiduously towards ensuring good governance and enhancing quality lives for the people of Nigeria through legislations".

In all this, Gbenga Daniel was seen to be scheming to ensure that somebody from the Ogun West Senatorial zone emerges the governor in 2011. But his close aides have denied that the PDP governorship ticket has been reserved for any particular zone.

According to Chief Niyi Adegbenro, Special Adviser on Political matters to governor Gbenga Daniel, there was no truth in the insinuations that Daniel has preference for a particular zone or candidate. He said what the governor believes in and has been saying is that there will be justice and fair play in the process that will lead to the emergence of the next governor. "So, a level playing ground would be provided for whoever decides to contest the governorship in 2011", he added.

However, the crisis has defied all efforts to resolve it. Prominent traditional rulers in the State, including the Alake of Egbaland, the Awujale of Ijebuland and others have intervened to settle the rift but failed. The leadership of the ruling PDP has waded in to reconcile the warring factions of the party but with little success.

Although at a meeting called by the party in Abuja to reconcile governor Daniel and the other faction led by Senator Jubril Martins Kuye, the two sides promised to end the rift and work together in the interest of the party, there has not been any positive development to suggest that all is well.

Adegbenro frowned at the way and manner members of the State House of Assembly are causing tensions in the state, saying that if the legislators have anything incriminating against the governor, they should send their petition to the Chief Judge who will set up a panel to investigate all the allegations and if the governor was found guilty of any offence, then let them impeach him.

Tasma:
It's becoming clearer to everyone why the country is in the state it's in. The fellows in positions to change things around are too busy running around naked in babalawo shrines. As a nation we are extremely immature and self centred. What possible agenda to make his state or constituency better can a man have when he's prepared to swear a blood oath for position.

Lastly for those who say we should not be offended that Nigerians are using our own cultural or traditional means you seem to miss the point completely. The question is what is he swearing the oath for? A legislator swearing an oath that he will never oppose the Governor of the state!? How exactly is he supposed to do his work properly?

True talk , , my person ,

how can they the legislator opposed THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE AFTER SWEARING To OATH?

G15 has murdered sleep and they’ll sleep no more, say Ogun Elders
Thursday, 02 July 2009 00:00

[b]The Chairman of Ogun East Council of Elders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Kolapo Ogunjobi, was an unhappy man on Monday. His mood , is understandable. The photograph of the embattled Ogun State lawmaker, Wale Alausa, in a blood oath-taking exclusively published by the Nigerian Compass on that day was what gave him and other party members who had gathered at his country home in Ode-Remo, over the matter a headache. Alausa, who is the lawmaker representing Ijebu -Ode Constituency in the state Assembly, comes from the senatorial district. When BIMBO OGUNNAIKE met him, Ogunjobi spoke on Alausa and the opposition G15 group, saying they have murdered sleep by standing in the way of the governor,Otunba Gbenga Daniel, and the people of the state.

What is your reaction to the photograph of Ogun lawmaker, Wale Alausa enmeshed in blood oath taking exclusively published by Nigerian Compass on Monday?

I was shocked to the marrow when I saw the pictures, especially when I discovered that it is the picture of one of the members of the House of Assembly in Ogun State. The man in that picture, Wale Alausa, I wouldn’t call him Honourable Wale Alausa because he is a dishonourable person. He is a member of the notorious gang called G15 in the House of Assembly.

Now, let me go quickly to history a little bit. When this trouble started with the impeachment of Honourable Speaker Titi Oseni,I was in South Africa and it was John Obafemi, Chairman Remo North Local Government who phoned me to intimate me of what was going on in Ogun State. He even told me that the governor was not around, but that the governor would be arriving that night, the night he phoned me. That was when the trouble started. That was the genesis of the problem.

Did the party put things in place to nip this problem before it became festered?

I want to quickly tell you that there is nothing or there was nothing the governor did not do, there was nothing the elders of the party did not do, there was nothing the leaders of the party did not do, the local government chairmen throughout the state; there was nothing they did not do, there was nothing the royal fathers in the state did not do to placate them.

Eminent personalities across the state, name it, there was nothing they did not do to placate this group of 15 lawmakers but all fell on deaf ears until we saw the picture and saw the reason why they have been so lackadaisical, why they have been so recalcitrant, why they did not listen to the voice of reason, including our Papa, Awujale of Ijebuland, Akarigbo of Remoland, Alake of Egbaland and Elders Forum led by Prince Bola Ajibola and assisted by General Alani Akinrinade and host of others. I read in your newspaper that they swore by their first children.

What do you think of the attitude of the G15 members who swore by their first children?

To me, they have behaved like the people who never went to school, half baked ,and these are not the kind of people that you expect to be in the House of Assembly. In particular, we are disappointed by Wale Alausa because his father is supposed to be one of the chieftains of this party, as a matter of fact chairman of this senatorial district. I am therefore advising him, through the press, that he should resign and that his father should disown him because it is a disgrace to their family. I can’t see any educated person who would descend to that level, to the level of going to the shrine to swear by their children. They are even wicked.

We learnt that some of the members of the G15 are from this senatorial district. What are the elders doing to curb their activities?

During the time we were using conciliatory approach, calling upon them to see reason, we have talked about punitive measures, we have talked about recall process, we have talked about everything, name it. But we didn’t want to rock the boat and most of these punitive measures we shelved. It is very easy for us to recall any one of them. There is a particular one from this local government called Boye Olusola, we would have recalled him a long time.

We have the weapon, the constitutional weapon to use against them, but the fact is that the governor is a man of peace, he wouldn’t want us to apply big stick that we have. It won’t take the leaders of the party in the district one week to recall any of these recalcitrant lawmakers,so, we waited up till this time. But now let me tell you that they have now finished themselves. I don’t think they can go back to the assembly from what you have published and people have seen, I cannot see how they can go back. So we did not recall them, they have rather recalled themselves.

Are you saying you are not going to recall them but leave them to withdraw their membership of the House?

What I said was that we are in a position to recall them, we have put all the processes in place but because the governor is a peace loving person, well bred, good in birth and noble in hereditary, he wants peace and this is the reason why we have not recalled them, we would have recalled them a long time ago. So the issue of whether we are going to leave them now or not is a forgone conclusion, you can see what has happened.

And let us wait for the next few days to see how events would unfold. It is not for me at this stage as the chairman of the Elders’ Council in Ogun East Senatorial District to tell you whether we are going to leave them or not because we in this district are not going to act in isolation of the other senatorial districts. It is what is going to happen here that will happen in the Central, the same thing that will happen in the West. So, I am representing Ogun East as chairman of the Elders Council and I cannot tell you now whether we are going to leave them alone or not,or we are going to drive them away from the assembly. I am not going to say that, I am not going to venture to say that. It is going to be the collective and joint action of the three senatorial districts.

What is your advise to the party members in this zone on this latest development?

The party members have watched the scenarios happening in the state in more than one year now and everybody, including me here, have learnt our lessons. We have discovered that you cannot swim against the tide and you cannot antagonise your leader. The leader in this case is the Otunba Gbenga Daniel. He is the leader of the party in Ogun State. And all of us, from the senatorial district level, to the local government level, to the ward levels have realised that there is no way we can oppose the leaders of the party, not to talk of Otunba Gbenga Daniel being governor of Ogun State, the first citizen of this state. So we have all learnt our lessons.

Those who have not learnt, have learnt now that you cannot swim against the tide. And I am sure that the rest of the G15, apart from Wale Alausa, would now be scampering for safety. And of course long before now, they have murdered sleep and they would sleep no more like Macbeth’s wife.[/b]

Six out of the G15 members are from your zone, people of this zone elected them into the office on the platform of the party. What are you going to do to guide against lawmakers from the zone going against the party leaders and the party in future?

Thank you very much. There is a common saying that prevention is better than cure. There is no question of what we are going to do to prevent it. What we are to do is that we are not going to send such people again to the House of Assembly, never from this zone. And of course, we have not just disowned lawmakers from this senatorial district, we have disowned all the members of G15, all of them without exception across the state

ＲＥ－Blood oath scandal: Ogun lawmaker gives Alausa 48-hr ultimatum  
Thursday, 02 July 2009 00:00  
Femi Shodunke (Deputy News Editor), Peter Fowoyo & Sola Adeyemo, Ibadan

THE embattled Ogun State lawmaker, Wale Alausa, has only 48 hours to retract a statement in which he indicted other lawmakers in the state of, taking blood oath.

One of his colleagues in the House of Assembly, Mr. Omosanya Solaja, who gave the ultimatum yesterday, said should Alausa refuse to retract the statement, he would sue him for libel.

Alausa had confirmed his involvement in a blood oath as exclusively published by the Nigerian Compass on Monday.

In defending his action, he said all elected officials of Ogun State, including members of the House, swore on oath as a condition for their tickets ahead of the 2007 elections.

But Solaja warned him yesterday, saying that the statement, aimed at tarnishing his and others’ image, should be withdrawn within 48 hours.

Alausa represents Ijebu-Ode State Constituency in the House.

Solaja, a member of G11, who was illegally suspended along with the former Speaker, Titi Shodunke-Oseni, by the Tunji Egbetokun-led G15 in the House, said there was no iota of truth in Alausa’s allegation and vowed to clear his name through legal means.

The lawmaker, who represents Ikenne State Constituency, said Alausa had damaged his reputation built over the years, and that he has been in pain over the barrage of inquiries directed at him from family members, relations, friends and political associates since the scandal was reported.

Also yesterday, Alausa’s father, Chief Agboola Alausa, denied the involvement of the revered Awujale and paramount ruler of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, earlier fingered by the lawmaker, in the oath-taking scandal.

Oba Adetona had, on Tuesday, denied any knowledge of the scandal where Alausa was photographed naked, swearing on oath in an Ijebu-Igbo shrine.

Alausa had claimed that Oba Adetona prevailed on his father, who is the Otun Balogun of Ijebuland, to take the oath in the Sagamu home of Governor Gbenga Daniel.

Solaja, in an interview with the Nigerian Compass, said since Alausa’s allegation, he had been faced with embarrassment from the people of his constituency and the Methodist Church (Nigeria), where he is a Lay Preacher since 1976.

Said Solaja: “My people in Ikenne State Constituency are really embarrassed; they have been on my neck since the scandal broke. But I have assured them that I will pursue the matter to ensure that Alausa is brought to book.

“Also in my church, I have been under pressure. For instance, my presbyter has taken it (oath-taking) up with me and I have told him that steps shall be taken to clear my name. At no time did I get involved in oath-taking as claimed by Alausa.”

“I am a Lay Preacher in the Methodist Church since 1976 and I am a barrister of 30 years experience at the Bar. So, the allegation made by Alausa is very damaging against my character. I am giving him 48 hours to retract the statement, failing which I will initiate a libel suit against him for character assassination.

“I am taking this step because I never subscribed to any oath and there was no need for me to do that. That (oath) is not correct, it is unfortunate. They said I have been suspended and I have been on my own since and that is why I am suing him on my own and I am expecting my fellow members in G11 to do the same.

“They need to clear their names to prove that none of them was involved in the oath-taking as claimed by Alausa, as doing so will clear their names of this fetish act.”

Besides exonerating the Awujale of any blames, the lawmaker’s father in a statement yesterday blamed the media for misquoting his son at a press conference he (lawmaker) addressed in Lagos on Tuesday in which he spoke extensively of Oba Adetona’s involvement in the oath-taking.

The statement said: “I am surprised by the report in the press that the Awujale asked me to prevail on my son (Wale) to swear to an oath and that the Kabiyesi was present during the oath-taking.

“My son never said such a thing to the press. It is totally false and reckless.”

But the lawmaker ran his statement as advertorial in many newspapers yesterday during which he confirmed all he said at the press conference, as reported by the media.

Meanwhile, barely 78 hours after the story and photographs were published, the life of the man, who supplied the items, is now in danger.

It was learnt that a meeting was held in a popular hotel on Allen Avenue, Ikeja, Lagos, where a popular politician from Ijebu-Ode was fingered as the suppliers of the oath-taking photographs.

Present at the meeting were some of the principal players in the Assembly crisis and a popular Isolo, Lagos-based fuji musician, who is close to the Action Congress (AC).

The source said the hotel is the second home of the musician as “he practically lives there.”

The meeting was held for about four hours before they moved to a location in Magodo, Lagos.

It was at the Magodo meeting that the decision was taken that the Ijebu-Ode politician “must be dropped” (assassinated) for giving the Nigerian Compass the photographs.

It was further learnt that the politician was tipped off by one of the aides of the musician, who told him pointedly: “Your life is in danger.”

It is believed that some of the G15 members had also called the politician to threaten him.

Reacting to the scandal, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State, Dr. Dejo Raimi, appealed to the G15 lawmakers to sheath their swords.

He told them to allow the developmental plans of the governor.

Raimi, also a member of the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE), expressed disgust at the revelations from the camp of the feuding lawmakers over the blood oath.

The former secretary to the Oyo State Government said it was apparent that there was something “diabolical, spiritual and maybe monetary behind the crisis, if all the interventions from traditional rulers, elders committee and even the PDP at state and national levels could not save the situation.”

He added: “More astonishing was the move to cripple developmental projects in Ogun through their so-called Resolution 167, seeking to stop bond from the open market. Since about three months that the crisis has been going on, I don’t think they have passed any law which should be for the benefits of the people of the state.

“So, I am appealing to them to allow peace to reign. We cannot continue to watch while a part of Yorubaland is being set on fire.”

According to him, it was alleged that the G15 lawmakers might have been involved in some bank loans which they wanted the governor to offset on their behalf, but which he declined.

Raimi stated that even if any monetary issue was involved, the warring lawmakers and the governor could find a better way out, rather than degrading the Yoruba race through fetish means.

His words: “If truly they borrowed money from banks and they wanted Gbenga Daniel to help them, they could have approached him, and maybe he might be deducting it from their monthly pay or any other means, instead of taking it to the ridiculous extent of the type of pictures we saw in Nigerian Compass.

“As for the YCE, one of our most respected Yoruba governors is Gbenga Daniel, so we cannot leave him alone while his state is burning. After all, none of the two groups has the required number of lawmakers to impeach the governor. So, why don’t they jaw-jaw and allow peace to reign?”

Yesterday, Lagos lawyer and human rights activist, Bamidele Aturu, condemned the Resolution 167 by the Assembly barring the state government from raising the N50 billion development bond.

He described it as “reckless, illegal, null and void and of no effect whatsoever.”

Declaring that the lawmakers have no such powers, Aturu said: “The House of Assembly in purporting to pass such a resolution has clearly gone beyond its own jurisdiction. It has exceeded its power. What it has done is ultra vires, because the House of Assembly of Ogun State is created by the constitution, and it follows that anything that it wants to do, it must be able to find a justification or a warrant in that constitution.

“Specifically, the House of Assembly of Ogun State, like any other House of Assembly, is created by Section 90 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. And that section defines the powers of the House of Assembly to make laws for the good order and stability of Ogun State.

“Now, Section 100 of the constitution regulates the mood by which the House of Assembly of Ogun State, or any state in Nigeria for that matter, can pass laws. This is through bills. All these bills are passed, the governor assents to them (bills), then they become laws for the state.

“Now, there is another power that is given to the House of Assembly. That power is to be found in Sections 128 and 129 of the constitution. It is the power that relates to what I call the investigative jurisdiction of the House of Assembly, and it is a limited jurisdiction because the constitution makes it clear that the House of Assembly cannot exceed the power conferred on it under that section. It is for them to make a law and to also expose waste or corruption. So, apart from making laws; apart from doing a public investigation for the purpose of making laws or for exposing corruption, the House of Assembly of Ogun State or any state has no other power over the public fund of any state and of Ogun State in particular.

“That is why I am shocked that the House of Assembly is going beyond its constitutional power.

“They may claim that they have a right under Section 125 of the constitution regarding the public account of a state. It is the Auditor-General of the state that can audit the public account of Ogun State, and once that has been done that, then of course, then of course it can be submitted to the House of Assembly of the state concerned.”

Aturu said the resolution of the House in question was not based on Section 125 but on the audit of the Auditor-General, which makes it “incurably illegal.”

He said even if it was based on the report of the Auditor-General under Section 125, they (legislators) have no power to compel or prevent legal institutes such as banks or even state governments from either entering into loan transactions “because that section does not give them that power.”

“The point I am making, which I want to make very accurately and very succinctly, is that where a legislature (whether of the state or the federation) exceeds its powers, whatever it does in respect of that power would be regarded as a nullity, unconstitutional and of no effect whatsoever.”

Aturu added that there is nothing in the constitution that even indicates that a mere resolution of a House is binding on anybody, including the governor and banks, as it is only an advisory opinion.

He said in a constitutional democracy, like Nigeria, it is wrong for a branch of government to give the impression that it is using “military jack boot methodology” to force its decisions on the state government.

[b] @9jarocks The mining industry in nigeria is still very young. There are no big mining companies yet operating in Nigeria even though Nigeria is richly endowed with huge mineral deposits including metalic, non metalic and precious stones. Nigeria is blessed with over 37 diferent minerals of commercial quantities.

I work for a mining company based in Nigeria. We currently mine and process different solid minerals including limestone, dolomite, kaolin, feldspar, barite, bentonite, lead. We are currently entering business coperation with foreign a company based in china to enable us increase our mining capacity and also develop new sites. Also we are currently developing the export market begining with west african countries like ghana.

Some of our products when processed are used as industrial grade chemicals for paint, glass, animal feed, plastics, oil drilling, paper, decorative, e.t.c

It was quite an interesting and lucrative sector because there is not much competition yet. The most important aspect is importing good mechinaries for your mining operations.

You can contact me through email beescompanysap@yahoo.com or ezekwere2000@yahoo.com if you have further questions.

Our company is also interested in out sourcing the marketing of some of its products to reputable marketing organizations to expands its market base.
