₦airaland Forum

***** Cross-section of the confab delegates.
A delegate from Oyo State representing the forum of former members
of the House of Representatives in the National Conference, Sheik
Mudashir Sekoni, has expressed optimism that the Yoruba would
smile home with their desire for regionalism and the state police at
the end of the exercise.
He also said that the people of Oke-Ogun in Oyo State were
marginalised because they did not have influential citizens.
Sekoni said, “For instance in Oke-Ogun, we have a vast land for
agricultural and industrial development, but the government is not
looking at the opportunities because we don’t have influential people
in government; we don’t have influential people with money and
power.
“Everybody was clamouring for regionalism and devolution of power.
So far, from the things that have happened, we have not gotten all of
them but I believe that by the time we leave the conference, our
desires will be achieved, which are regionalism, state police and
devolution of power.
“Every state governor comes to Abuja every month to share money;
we cannot get development as a result of that and that is why the
level of corruption is high in this country. It is sad and unfortunate
that you give the governors resources to develop their environment
but they just pocket them.
“For instance, look at our case in Oke-Ogun, in most of the areas
what do we have? Nothing! No Federal Government presence. There is
nothing in Oke-Ogun where we have 10 local government areas with a
large population. There is nothing substantial; no Federal Government
presence anywhere in Oke-Ogun and it is sad.
“I made that comment in my response to the President’s speech that
at least, we need a state. If we get this state, we will know how to
develop ourselves because the ruling class from Ibadan and
Ogbomosho has taken over everything. Oyo State as it is presently
constituted is large.”
He added, “Governance in Nigeria has been personalised; anybody
who gets there, if you are not close to them, you will not get
anything.
“That is not how to develop a nation, and that is what we have in Oyo
State. There is nothing you can get if you are not close to the
government as a person. The government has not asked any question
about its priority.”
Sekoni also reiterated his agitation for the establishment of a federal
university in Oke-Ogun whose demand started during the
administration of former Military President, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.
He said, “During Babangida’s regime, we thought we were going to
get that university but the military leader said we should contribute
some money and may be that policy then was directed against the
people of Oke-Ogun. This is because they knew we did not have the
money. Where did they expect us to get the billions of Naira they
asked us to contribute? Who among us served in government and had
the opportunity to steal money?
“So, we could not provide the money and that is why the university
went to Ogbomosho. When a former governor of Oyo state, Adebayo
Alao Akala, came on board, the development was concentrated in
Ogbomosho too. That is why I talked about personalising government
and that is unfortunate.” ****

here : Few days ago, NaijaGists.com exclusively shared with you the story of
an hotel located in Onitsha Anambra state Nigeria where they sell
cooked human parts as meat , if you missed the story, read it here .
The name of the hotel has been revealed and it’s called Upper Class
Hotel.
The exact address of the hotel is number 8 Old Market rd in Onitsha.
The owner of the hotel is a popular Onitsha big boy and his name is
Bonaventure Mokwe.
Earlier this week, police arrests 10 people including Mr Mokwe
following a tip off from vigilant residents and a pastor who
unknowingly ate human meat in the hotel earlier this year.
A Pastor who was among the people who tipped off the police on
Thursday said: I went to the hotel early this year, after eating, I was
told that a lump of meat was being sold at N700, I was surprised. So
I did not know it was human meat that I ate at such expensive price.”
Head of a man and a woman were discovered by police along with
AK47 rifles and magazines.
