Politics / FG Completes Ilorin – Jebba High Way by Yhinkss(m): 9:59am On Aug 18, 2018
Ilorin- The federal government has completed the
costruction and rehabilitation of the abandoned
Ilorin -Jebba federal high way.
Federal Controller of works, Kwara State, Engr.
Atitebi Wasiu Kunle, who announced this on
Friday told a team of journalists led by the
minister of Information and Culture, Alh. Lai
Mohammed, that the 93.6km completed road is
part of the entire road contract awarded since
13th December 2013 by federal government,
stretching from Ilorin-Jebba – Mokwa route at the
contract sum of N14.579 billion.
He explained that the Kwara state section is
93.6km in length, and starts from somewhere
6km behind within Ilorin township and ends at
after Jebba bridge.
“The road was constructed over 30 years ago
and since then there has not been any attention
on this road. For more than 10 years, this road
was virtually abandoned because it completely
collapsed because no vehicle could pass the
road again. But those who had no alternative like
those vehicles from the west to the north have to
be plying it. Sometimes they have to be spending
up to 6 days to get to either Jebba or Mokwa or
beyond.
“The contract started in January 2014 with a
contract period of 3 years. However the contract
period has been extended till the end of this
year.
“I can tell you that the contractor has been paid
and you can see the road has been completed
from beginning till end with road signs.
“The quality of work is international standard and
comparable to those all over the world.”
On the quality of the road, Engr. Wasiu said:
“With the current traffic, the road can withstand
between 15 to 20 years,” and that government is
not stopping at that because dualisation of the
road has been awarded to the same contractor
and is expected that within the next two to three
weeks works will commence at a total contract
sum of N130b.
According to him, the Kwara state section of the
proposed dualization is 80bn, while Niger state
section is 50bn.
Responding to questions, the Minister described
the road as a very strategic axis to the nation’s
economy because “it serves as a link between
the South West and Northern axis, leading to
Algeas.”
According to the minister, “This administration
took over the road at 15.9% completion and
today the road has been 100% completed by the
contractor.”
Explaining further, Alh. Mohammed said “The
Niger state portion had to do mainly with
rehabilitation of the road, the shoulders, the
escavation and also the calvert.
“The focus of this administration is on
infrastructure, you can imagine if this Mokwa
bridge is at the original, what will be the cost of
food items today? It means that commuters have
to look for another route or they will stop
bringing food stuff across the country.
“We are not a govt that will put money in
anybody’s pocket, if this contract cost N10bn
and you are giving all the politicians one one
million, when they have taken the one one
million, they will join in abusing government,
saying there is no road and no bridge. We will
rather slowly and painstakingly revive the
economy. Govt is working and the result is there
for all to see.”
When asked if the road would be tolled, the
minister said: “Not all roads are for tolling,
because if you look at the idea of tolling, a road
is to be able to recoup the cost of construction
because in most cases people take loans to do
these projects and to make it sustainable.
“The study is being compiled and at the end of
the study, it will be decided whether we want toll.
For us as a government, our focus is to provide
these infrastructure. Whether we toll or we don’t
toll there is still vehicles moving. This road
carries 7,500 vehicles a day and about a year
ago it was carrying probably one-tenth of that so
I am quite glad.”
Attesting to the sincerity of the present
administration, the Baale of Bode Sadu
Community in Moro LGA, Barr. Bolakale Yusuf,
who expressed gratitude to government over the
timely completion of the project said: “The road
is the life wire of economy between the North/
South.
“We are so grateful to government. The people in
this community will do all they can to protect, we
see it as important asset.We have tested and
still testing dividends of democracy.
“Before now, the road was terrible, we couldn’t
do anything. Our market closed down because
people were not secured. It affected everything. It
could take weeks to travel out of this axis.
Fixing this road has done a whole lots of good. It
has positively affected our people.
“Our market closed down because people were
not secured. It affected everything. It could take
weeks to travel out of this axis.
Fixing this road has done a whole lots of good. It
has positively affected our people.”
Also speaking, the federal controller of Niger
state, Engr. I.F Umeh, who was represented by
the resident Engr. along Jebba-Mokwa road,
Engr. Samuel Isa Sumangu told the journalists
that “Before now, the surface of the road was
undulating and there was a lot of failure at the
location but remedy came when we excavated up
to 6meters and reinstated it with boulders. After
that we lay our stone base, our binder cost and
our wearing cost that is on our carriageway
subsequently on all.
“We have about 38 failed sections from here to
Mokwa and the shoulders. Also,we have
reinstated them. We have also built 2 cell box
Calvert.
“At the second longest failed sections which we
have reinstated it is at Tara. At this particular
place, we reinstated with lateritic material then
followed by our stone base, binder cost and
wearing cost on the carriage way.
Continuing, Sumangu expkained that: “This road
was terribly bad to a point that some vehicles
spend more than one week and are prone to
accidents. But now it is a route that vehicles can
ply. This section of the work is being funded by
ecological fund. We have 2 locations of U shaped
line train, 4 pipe cross Calvert and the double
Cell box calvert.
“The amount for this job is N1.07bn for 34kms
but out of it, we did only 4.3km that was the fell
sections.”

Politics / Fayose, Fayemi And The Rest Of Us In Ekiti by Yhinkss(m): 10:57am On Aug 12, 2018
July 15,2018 was a red- letter day and a day of jubilation and rejoicing for the good people of Ekiti State. That was the day the INEC, through its returning officer, declared Dr. John Kayode Fayemi elected and returned as the governor of Ekiti State. The last four years or so has turned out for Ekiti people a most humiliating and harrowing experience, having been governed by a maximum ruler whose mode of governance is characterized by autocracy and authoritarianism. Fayemi and Fayose For the first time in our 22 odd years of existence as a state,we have a governor who turns governance into eating toasted plantain and groundnut by the roadside, buying cowhide ( ponmo) in the market, serving himself and aides pounded yam and amala in local eateries,frying gari at local processing depots etc. We became an object of scorn and ridicule in the eyes of the people of other states who despise and deride us that, as a land of honour and fountain of knowledge, we deserve a better deal than the short end of the stick we were being fed in the name of governance. The question may well be asked: how did we get to this pass where odium and opprobrium of the worst form became our portion? To be sure, this is our governor’s second coming having served as governor between 2003 and 2007, but I daresay that our experience the first time pales into significance as it cannot be compared with what we are going through at his second coming. In a proverbial sense, while he chastised us with whip the first time,he did with scorpion the second time. I was not on ground in Ekiti during his first coming before he was impeached. So I had no first hand information of some of the odd things he did, even though I read quite a lot of them in the media and heard a lot from some of the people resident here. And that explains why, when he sought to run, I was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt that he should be allowed the second chance and given the opportunity to correct the shortcomings of his first outing. In fact, I recall, with huge regret, that I had sharp disagreement with some of my close friends who tried to convince me that nothing good could come out of him as he was a leopard that could not change his spots. I stuck to my gun since he sounded sincere that since he had become born- again,he should be granted a second chance.. With the benefit of hindsight, it is a matter for deep regret that I allowed myself to be hoodwinked by his chicanery and I have come to terms that I was driven by sheer naivety and grand illusion to assume that this leopard could change his spots. Between 2008 and 2019, I had served as a Commissioner in Ekiti State independent Electoral Commission, but Fayemi,s assumption of office in October of 2010 put paid to my tenure, along with other members and truncated what was supposed to be a 5 – year tenure. Expectedly, our entitlements were not paid by Fayemi who felt Chief Segun Oni, his predecessor in office, stole his mandate and visited the later, s ‘sins’ on his political appointees. Naturally we didn’t take it to heart because he came in as Oni’s political opponent but when Fayose came in,we felt a reprieve was on the way. We were wrong. All efforts to persuade him as a party man to do something about our claim proved abortive as he kept on insisting to our astonishment that we should pursue our matter in the courts to its logical conclusions.. While I was disappointed,I didn’t let that pour cold water on my opinion of him. I still kept faith,but subsequent events and some of his actions began to erode my confidence in his ability to govern with fairness and responsibility. It became apparent as the months wore on that we had on our hands a governor whose stay in office was going to devalue,degrade and denigrate all the values we as a people have always held sacred. His manifold sins and transgressions against the people of Ekiti multiplied from day-to-day such that we began to lose count and we kept hoping and praying that this nightmare would fizzle out and we would wake up relieved that we have been spared of a creepy and eerie dream. Through the grapevine, it became clear that this governor had no business with the conventional weekly executive council meetings and that decisions were taken willy nilly on impulse; talk of governing by impulse; the old- hallowed and revered traditional institutions were no longer accorded any respect but were defied, defiled and desecrated at will, decisions were taken without any consideration for the aggregate interest of the people and devoid of due process, hapless Ekiti people had their houses demolished without compensation in the name of urban renewal, civil servants were sidelined in the scheme of things and denied of their emoluments for several months, pensioners were routinely denied of their pensions, white elephant projects were embarked upon while projects that could have direct impact on the people of Ekiti were neglected, money was spent recklessly without regard for openness and accountability, the House of Assembly which should have served as a veritable check and balance became a mere rubber stamp having been completely emasculated and put firmly in the pocket of the ruler who unabashedly and routinely issued orders to regulate their day-to-day proceedings including downright usurpation of their powers to pass the budget to mention just a few of the sundry acts of misgovernance! In all of these, the good people of Ekiti looked on dazed,benumbed,bemused and bewildered, brooding over what hit them and rueing the day such a character was voted in to govern them. While all these were going on,nothing prepared the good people of Ekiti State for what the boisterous governor was capable of doing and indeed did in the buildup to the election. A governor whose desperation became legendary and obsessive ran amok,as it were, committing dishonourable and ignoble acts serially without batting an eyelid! every unconscionable absurdity/impediments were put in the way of the major opposition party, APC to underscore his desperation. Unlawful daytime curfews were imposed tonfrustrate Ekiti people from coming out to attend APC mega rally which bought PMB to Ekiti, commercial vehicle drivers and okada riders were directed to deposit their buses and motor bikes at government house grounds to enforce the compulsory stay at home order, we saw a governor shamelessly shedding crocodile tears in full view of the public in a vain attempt to whip up emotions and futile public sympathy, we saw a governor boasting pathetically, as it later turned out that he was Peter, the rock and whoever collides with him will fall into pieces and whoever he collides with will crumble and fall into pieces and we had a megalomaniac and egocentric person who boasted he was so popular among his people he could not lose an election! To add to the drama of the absurd, we had somebody who carried on as if he was the candidate contesting the election,and not his protégé or puppet,Olusola Eleka and to cap the serial insanity,we had a governor who demonstrated unprecedented audacity and went on state radio to announce that his deputy had won the election while collation of votes was still ongoing by INEC! All said and done,to God be the glory and adoration for the great things He had done. A new governor- elect had emerged in Ekiti who suffered grave indignities after he was ignominiously run out of power in twenty fourteen and with his victory comes a breath of fresh air and a new window of opportunity for responsive and responsible governance in Ekiti. While thanking God for this change of guard, ii is important to remind the governor- elect that his election to govern Ekiti State for the next four years has provided him a rare opportunity to chart a new course and reinvent governance to give Ekiti people a new lease of life. He must realize and come to terms that in his first term he took certain wrong decisions and stepped, inadvertently on toes and his victory is therefore an opportunity to atone for his sins. He must see it as a bounden duty to right the wrongs, make amends where necessary and and strive to put sound and laudable policies and programmes in place to heal the huge wounds inflicted on the psyche of Ekiti people and endeavor to make a huge difference in the lives of the people. I sincerely pray that the lessons learnt from past mistakes will be brought to bear to orchestrate good and responsible governance this time around. May God help him.

Crime / Facts About A Man Who Slumped And Died In An Ethiopian Airline by Yhinkss(m): 8:04pm On Aug 02, 2017
Fresh facts have emerged detailing how one Mr. Sylvanus
Amachukwu Godwin, a Nigerian national with Passport
Number A06011089 aboard an Ethiopian Airlines Flight 606
en-route Addis Ababa to Guangzhou, China allegedly
slumped and died of high grams of drug in body.
Indications are that the late Godwin may have died of some
drug in his body system but the airline authorities are yet to
conclude investigations as to the proper cause of his death.
In a telephone conversation with Nigerian Consul General to
China, Ambassador Wale Oloko, Godwin’s death was
announced to the consulate when the aircraft landed at the
Baiyun International Airport in Guangzhou, China. The
consulate was informed that the Nigerian collapsed while in
the flight and though first-aid measures were administered
on him, he unfortunately died before the aircraft could
reach China.
It was also learnt that the corpse has been taken to the
Aviation Hospital’s mortuary within the Baiyun International
Airport complex for expected post mortem to determine the
cause of the sudden death.
Ambassador Oloko noted that the Mission is not restricting
investigations on its part and has gone ahead to advise the
management of Ethiopian airlines to use the information on
the reservation system to reach the family of the deceased
in Nigeria, with a view to arranging the repatriation of the
body in line with the international aviation regulations, on
the fact that the incident took place inside the aircraft and
before disembarkation.
Moreover, the Consul General also said that the airport and
Ethiopian Airlines authorities are insisting on a
comprehensive post mortem examination and the Mission
believes they are doing so in order to avoid and or
exonerate the management from potential liability.
In light of the fresh development, Nigerians are urged to
understand the dangers of drug trafficking and the negative
impact on the country’s image.
This is necessary, following the backdrop of the many
reported incidents of Nigerians that have been arrested at
the airport upon arrival on Ethiopian Airlines flights with
drug in their system.

Politics / Jonathan's Pathetic Apologetics by Yhinkss(m): 7:47am On Apr 28, 2017
Former President Goodluck Jonathan, reflecting on his electoral defeat two years ago, shunned deep introspection and remorse for his five- year reign of impunity . What comes out from him from excerpts of a new book is a potpourri of falsehoods , hypocrisy , lame excuses and blame for everyone but himself . But before Nigerians fall once more for his favourite tactic of playing the victim , they would do well to remember the devastating impact of his bad government. Words attributed to him in a book , Against the Run of Play , by Olusegun Adeniyi , a well -known journalist, and billed for public presentation in Lagos on Friday , were vintage Jonathan. Posing yet again as the perpetual victim , he blamed former world leaders − Barack Obama of the United States , Britain ’ s David Cameron, and French president , Francois Hollande − for desperately wanting a change of government in Nigeria . He blamed Attahiru Jega , the former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission , for allegedly working with the Americans by insisting on the initial February 2015 date set for the presidential election ; he blamed his own former party chairman , Adamu Mu ’ azu , whom he accused of working against him, and he carpeted the press and civil society for highlighting the pervasive corruption that flourished on his watch . First , the context : As he left a limping economy and widescale corruption behind , Jonathan’ s five years at the helm were an unmitigated disaster for Nigeria , the effects of which 170 million Nigerians are experiencing today . He ran the economy aground, failing like his predecessors to diversify effectively and entrenching what The Economist of London labelled “ a rentier state . ” His government despoiled all fiscal buffers − foreign reserves hardly rose despite persistently high oil prices until August 2014 . In its defence , his finance minister claimed that it was $ 43 .13 billion that was inherited, yet , despite oil prices averaging $ 90 -$ 103 per barrel up till mid -2014 , reserves moved barely perceptively , while the Excess Crude Account had crashed from $ 22 billion to only $2 . 2 billion when Muhammadu Buhari took over by mid - 2015 . Jonathan left no major new signature infrastructure project ; only inflated repair projects which are mired in controversy. Arguably his greatest disservice that ought to have been his major triumph was the badly managed privatisation of power assets that transferred most of the generation and distribution companies to untested , incompetent domestic consortia that have saddled Nigeria with a legal quagmire . But it is in the areas of corruption and security that Nigerians were mostly badly done in by that terrible government. Jonathan ’ s denial that he dismissed corruption allegations as “mere stealing ” is false . He declared this on local and international TV . Corruption ran riot on his watch , as attested to by the latest scandals involving his wife , the suspended spy chief who stashed away $ 43 million in a Lagos apartment, the missing oil receipts being probed in parliament , as well as the $ 2 .1 billion arms purchase fund that ended up in private hands . While he is whining that Obama and other world leaders , civil society , the media and the opposition alleged corruption “without proof,” the world is still aghast at a sprawling corruption scandal centred on the abuse of N 2. 53 trillion petrol subsidy in 2011 when only N 248 billion was approved in the budget . His government also signed away N 603 billion in less than a year for dubious import duty waivers , exemptions and concessions, according to Customs. The fraud associated with oil swap agreements is still unfolding . Hypocritically , he claimed to have dropped Stella Oduah as Aviation minister when evidence emerged, but said he retained Diezani Alison -Madueke as oil minister “ because there was no foolproof evidence . ” This same ex -minister is alleged to have withdrawn millions of dollars to finance his re -election bid for which she and many others , including electoral officials , are being tried . He disingenuously discredited the Nuhu Ribadu panel report on the grounds of disagreement among some members , but failed to say that he had appointed Steve Oronsaye and Bernard Otti to the board of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation in an obvious move of brinksmanship. It is not too late for Jonathan to grow up . He may think Nigerians have forgotten and that it is time to move on . This is fantasy . All the colossal scandals that defined his time in government will live on in the minds of the people who bear the burdens of his misrule. Former president Olusegun Obasanjo , who broke all party rules to make him deputy to the late President Umaru Yar ’ Adua, is quoted in the same book as admitting that from his first days in office , “… he showed that he was too small for the office.” He demonstrated this in his mishandling of the Boko Haram terrorist insurgency. Boko Haram has killed over 25 ,000 people, displaced over two million and once held 27 local government areas as its “ caliphate . ” Rather than take full charge, he allowed his generals to turn it into a gold mine for corrupt enrichment , an ATM, according to Obasanjo , for taking money from the treasury . The influential The Economist once declared that Jonathan ran the most corrupt , most clueless government in Nigeria ’ s history. We can ’ t agree more . Indeed , we hold him and his corrupt generals responsible for the failure to rescue the 276 Chibok girls in 2014. His false narrative that he did try to rescue them contradicts reports that he failed to act when initially informed , continuing to view terrorism as a personal conspiracy against him. Surprisingly , Jonathan has not changed , falsely asserting and boorishly claiming that Boko Haram is being defeated because Buhari is a Muslim , not viewed as an “ infidel’’ like he was. But salafist militants view all existing governments as infidels to be violently overthrown . They target the Muslim leaders of Saudi Arabia , Iraq, Egypt , Tunisia , Jordan , Afghanistan, Yemen, Libya , Somalia , Chechnya , Algeria and Bahrain . Boko Haram has killed emirs and has vowed to kill Buhari, the Emir of Kano and the Sultan of Sokoto , the nominal head of Nigerian Muslims . Jonathan incorrigibly blamed the media for his electoral defeat . We insist he lost the election because he was a total failure . He cites high figures of votes for Buhari in Kano, but was silent on equally suspicious figures for him from the South -South states , from Rivers or from Akwa Ibom and Delta states where votes recorded for him doubled the number of accredited voters . But we hold President Muhammadu Buhari and the Nigerian people culpable for providing the leeway for Jonathan to trample on our collective memory . While the Buhari government has demonstrated lack of courage to bring Jonathan to justice, many Nigerians celebrate , instead of rising against corruption. Across the world , people of conscience are marching in their thousands to protest against corruption; in broken , dysfunctional Nigeria , hundreds are, for a few wads of naira, marching , vandalising property, and preaching hate in defence of the corrupt . The officials on trial who have claimed to have been obeying Jonathan’ s orders by collecting and distributing public funds provide enough grounds to put him also on trial . The anti - corruption war cannot go far unless Jonathan is confronted in court with his misdeeds . Past rulers who break the law are put in the dock . South Korea , Guatemala , Brazil , Peru , Zambia , Italy , France are ready examples . No one should be above the law . Buhari should save his reputation by pulling out all the stops in the war on graft . Far too many ex - Presidents have demonstrated this belief that they are above the law . Jonathan failed to bring corrupt past leaders to justice, but Buhari must bust the myth. Nigerians should realise that corruption has ruined their present and rendered the future gloomy for their children and rise up against corrupt leaders − past and present . As for Jonathan , he should be reminded that the history of his administration is already being written and it is neither flattering nor can he remodel it with falsehood and whining hypocrisy .
