Mogidi:

Back to sender in Jesus name. Same way you will kaput on or before 2015.

So u know the guy is a liar? How much were u paid to blackmail d man?

VICTORCIZA: little or much lies like seriously you arranged it to suit you?

Aregbe is a disgrace!
completion of state projects =zero

Oga say amen or keep quite till eternity

OrlandoOwoh:
That was how the boy gave reasons why SLS would not be made Emir. At the end of the day SLS became the Emir of Kano.

Meaning we should expect Aregbe to win d election, so glad the good work will continue. Osun To Tiun Dara Koni Baje OOoo!!!

VICTORCIZA: please sir check that write up and point out any lie , if you didn't find any i demand an apology

There is no need to point one out cos all nah lie, if u're sure u will give tagible reasons for all your accusation.

obiyaya:

Bros don't get so worked up.

The DG DMO didn't give any figure. He only said Osun debt profile is sustainable. And less than 40% of GDP is what is regarded as sustainable.

According to reports, Osun GDP is in the region of 7 billion dollars. So meaning anything below 2.8 billion dollars (420 billion naira) is considered sustainable.

All I'm asking for is a figure.

You get?

If you're satisfied with the commissioner of finance's figure, the next guy can be satisfied with Former head of service's figure. And you can't say he's wrong.

We need facts

Pls answer dis question, which authority do u think is in the right place to declare a state's debt profile?

numericalguy:


I wonder how someone can become a fellow with HND

This link should help:http://www.nse.org.ng/index2.php?page=news&view=newsdetail&id=67
Google is ur friend, and don't forget to read between d lines when u're using it.

ArinzeABC: If indeed Aregbe has an HND,why did he present WAEC as his qualification to inec? Why didn't Omisore present his WAeC also? Or does Omisore not have school cert?

That is because they are 2 different entity, and beside, d qualification requirement from inec is minimum of school cert, the rest nah wash. Simplicity can not be bought, even with PHD.

obiyaya:

Please drop a link!!!

I mean official figures from DMO not commissioner of finance figures.

Commissioner's figure is as good as former chief of staff's figure.

You are suprised d guy no owe 350/400billion as u claimed; abi? U no trust d commissioner's figure, u hate to hear the DMO's declaration; simply because of sentiment, probably u should wait for the DMO's publication or go and audit the state treasury urself so that u'll come and tell us the truth, i am eager to know the truth myself; but for now, am satisfied with the finance commissioner's figure.

Yoritshekiri:
That is because of propaganda; the o'this, o'that we keep hearing about. He spent more money on propaganda than on real projects.
At the end of the day, Osun still looks like Hiroshima when it was nuclear bombed.

Tell me where you live in osun state, and I'll tell you how Ogbeni has affected that area possitively.

obiyaya: Una dey book space?

Someone should answer the question jare or provide a link to that regard

You should probably search again, I got the figure online even before the DMO's intervention. The speaker of the state house of assembly, the state commissioner for finance, and others in the cabinet disclosed the figure not once, not twice.

Wind? This was blamed on the wind? Nah police talk dat one sha, still waiting for the expert's report.

gratiaeo:
Apc have lost every element of decency. If it were a bomb like they claim,the artisans would have been blown up. How are we sure this construction scam was not carried out by tinubu’s hi-tech construction company. abeg yeye de smell. lol

Didn't u read dis part:“As a responsible government, it is too early for us to say what the exact cause of the collapse is until we have full investigations and advice of professionals.

“However, it must be stated here that all necessary quality assurance tests were carried out to ensure structural durability and integrity of the project.

“Engineers from the Osun Ministry of Works and engineers from the Structural Engineering section of the Nigerian Society of Engineers have been dispatched to the site to establish the real cause of this unfortunate incident.”?
Pls try to read between d lines next tym, it wount do u any arm.

gratiaeo:
Hahahahahahah, APC members are truly mad and foolish, how could they blame anybody of being responsible for a collapse building? what is really wrong with these criminals? Are the PDP members the contractors or the suppliers of the materials used in constructing the house? Nawaooo. APC should stop chasing shadows cos they can no longer deceive Nigerians. What a devilish and foolish allegation! These people have no direction at all.

Only a blind man will not see that the building by mere looking is of substandard

U're biased in ur judgement, the state government have not accused anybody yet, experts are still looking for d cause, and what would u have done urself if u are to act on the report that says there was a bang before d collapse of the building?

OrlandoOwoh:
During my last visit to Ile-Ife, I was in Oduduwa College, the same blocks of class rooms used by a former Attorney General and Minister Justice, Richard Akinjide and the Ooni of Ife was still standing strong. The one opposite it built by MDG in less than ten years has leaking roofs and cracked walls.

I agree with you, but dat does not mean we can not try something new, let's just make sure we criticize dis pple in a constructive manner to make dem give us d best, we dnt have to condemn all there moves. Am tired of this 6-3-3-4 system myself, let's try something new. As a coach, u don't stick to a formation u used in the first half that did not favour u when going for the second half, if we continue using the same technique, we'll continue to get the same answer.

VICTORCIZA: aregbe rascal swindling osun people since God know when!!

So u're blaming d governor over a collapse building without knowing the cause yet? I pity d future of this country.

Ekiti kete! In okun oooo

OrlandoOwoh: Rauf Aregbesola is making a big mistake, bringing down strong buildings just to erect his own. In Oduduwa College, Ile-Ife, for example, some old structures that were still strong used by people like Dele Giwa, were demolished just to erect his own.
The collapse of this building is a big blow on his re-election. Parents would warn their children against using any structure erected by Aregbesola.

So you surgest we should use a particular building 4 ever? Or u're suggesting we should wait for the old ones to tear apart b4 building other ones? Don't u know buildings have expiry dates too? Let's embrace change and correct mistakes, not condmn every innovation.

oapbrown:

Well, I also make bold to say, Aregbe developed ALMOST every nook and cranny in Osun State. I have relatives who live so close in a prominent estate, to the government house (annex) in Osogbo, d road leading to their estate (Oroki/Temidire Estate) has been so bad since its existence. A PDP elected Senator, PDP state chairman, and so many PDP officials live in that Estate, they did nothing to that road. When the Senator was approached concerning the poor road and the poor transformer, he told the landlords 'Well, as yu can see, I don't stay long here, so I don't have any problem with the road, and I mostly use generator whenever am around, so yu people shud write the government, they will help you'. As close as that road is to the Govt Annexe, it wasn't done thruout PDP's regime. When Aregbe came, he didn't only tar the road, he turned a seemingly small road to a bigger/dual lane road on both sides. Anybody can check, I still drove on that road early dis year - Oroki Estate to Capital Hotel link road. Come to think of it, you're all shouting APC is bad, why did Oyinlola rig the last election? He simply knew he didn't perform well and so pple wanted a change, hence dey voted Aregbe. They tot they had finished Aregbe wif d rigging but as a reasonable and sensible politician, he made sure he had evidences of all d riggings and dat was what made him win later in court. Oyinlola and Omisore committed a lotta atrocities both in Ife and Ilesa, sponsoring their thugs to kill innocent people, well I need not say much.

Fine, Omi has a better CV, but he didn't prove beyond his CV in his 8yrs as a senator that he can perform better as a governor! Osun State needs to look like a real State that it's looking now!

Better CV my foot

PapaBrowne: Omisore's resume:


Education[edit]
He had his primary education at the SS Peter and Paul Roman Catholic School in Ile-Ife and his secondary education at St. John Grammar School Ile Ife Osun State from 1972 – 1977, where he excelled.

Professional career[edit]
He is an embodiment of intelligence who has made the pursuit of excellence his trademark. Senator Iyiola Omisore is an engineer and politician of note, and an astute manager of resources whose attention to detail, calmness, and ability to simplify, and proffer solutions to complex issues is uncommon. In fact, his patriotic zeal and engineering acumen was brought to play tremendously when he was in the Senate between 2003 and 2011 and the country benefitted tremendously from this.

Engineering

He started his early professional life with the firm of Drake and Gordham while in the UK, in the early Eighties where he received on the job training and rose to top Management positions. The same firm Drake and Scull (Nig) Ltd took him back home to Nigeria where he worked on major Engineering projects, it was while working at Drake and Scull that his project management skills were horned. He later established his own Engineering firms; Mechelec Consultants –an Engineering Consultancy outfit and Chrisore Eng Ltd – an Electrical Engineering firm.

Omisore, a Fellow of the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers started his engineering career as project manager with Drake Gordham UK, Plc, in 1983 and was there up to 1985 before returning to Nigeria to join Drake and Scull Nig. Ltd. also as Project Manager. Here, he supervised the construction of 19 airfields including the Makurdi Air Force Base. Apart from these, he supervised other projects like the Sokoto and Makurdi Rice Mills, Taraku Oil Mill and the Sokoto University Teaching Hospital. He was elevated to the post of a General Manager in 1987 and as a General Manager there up till 1999, he handled such projects like the Federal Mortgage Bank Headquarters Building, Onitsha Flour Mills, Bank of The North (Now Unity Bank) Building, Podium Secretariat, Port Harcourt; Eternit, Sapele; World Bank Assisted Health Projects for Plateau, Benue and Nasarawa States and the Imiringi Rural Electrification project now in Bayelsa State.

Also, when the NSE was celebrating its Golden Jubilee in 2008, he was honoured with the Prime Award for Remarkable Contribution to the Growth of Engineering Profession and Society.

Project Management

On the consultancy side he was involved in the execution of several World Bank assisted projects and ADB/ADF assisted projects in virtually every part of Nigeria. Chisore Engineering Ltd was also involved in the Execution of many projects for Blue Chip Companies, Banks, Embassies, Shipping Companies; just to mention but a few. He was very successful in his professional endeavour, he diversified and today has interest in several areas of the Economy. He was in the process of taking Chrisore Engineering to be listed on the stock Exchange before the duties of elective political office beckoned on him. Omisore went ahead to establish Chrisore Engineering Plc in 1989 as well as Mechelec Consultants Ltd. Between the time of its establishment and 1999, Chrisore Engineering of which he was the Chairman and CEO had executed many projects.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iyiola_Omisore

You forgot to include that IT WAS EDITED ON THE WIKIPAGE 3DAYS AGO BY AN ANONYMOUS.

texaco1: so u actually believed or thought that pdp will field a candidate who has nothing upstairs or someone who forged and lied about his qualification as an engineer like rauf argbesola? Every pdp candidate is well educated ,watch out for the pdp candidate for oyo state . Just wait and see

Why do u think Omisore refuse to tell us what he earned at Owo poly? Why do u think Owo poly denied his claim of graduating from the school? Do u ask urself why he had all his tertiarry education abroad? Are u a Yoruba man? Do u know d meaning of "Okobo kii bimo si tosi? Have u ever hear him speak before? Yeye dey smell

zeelo2014: ^^^ogre, must u always blab? @ the transvestite 2nd above me, get a life. His cv speaks volume, I'm impressed, looking forward to the debate, let the better man win.

God bless u, this man's CV speaaks for him, I don't think he should have difficulties speaking for himself.

I expect the people of osun to support this man's innovations and correct him where he's wrong, he's human and he's bound to make mistakes, let's correct him not condemn him. Some of us here condemning this man can not even manage a family of 5 properly, not to talk of a polygamous family, let alone a sigle church or mosque as d case may be.

Bash92: List those good intentions he has after 4 years

If u as a person claim to be in Osun state and didn't see any good thing in this man compared to d last administrations, then I rest my case. I don't expect any good thinking osun indigen to to condemn dis man, if u're complaining about the quality of d new school uniform, inavailability of Opon imo to all d students deserving it, too much noise on media and probably d pensionneer's case then I'll support d campaign with all my strength. But telling me u can't see d reform in Health and Education sectors, his passion for promoting tourism, fairness to all tribes and religion, road construction, his passion towards empowering unemployed youths, his intervention in d agricultural sector, sanity into d state civil service, secure and peacefull enviroment, and many more; is either......... I don't even know what to say cause I expect u to see all dis if truly u live in dis state as u claimed.

BABAKABIRU301: TWO QUESTIONS PLS. 1. PLS WHO KILL ROPO OLAGBAJU [MISTY] A REPRESENTATIVE FROM IFE CENTRAL LG TO OSUN STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY DURING AKANDE REGIM. 2. RATCOM. RAUF TITILOLA [TITI LAOYE TOMORI] CONSTRUCTION COMPANY OR ......

Oga, take am easy now RATCOM, Rauf Titi what? I know a road at Alagbaka in Akure being handled by dis smae construction company, dis road was awarded by Mimiko towards his second term reelection, since when did Mimiko and Aregbesola statrted giving themselves contract? Ee si beru oloun

Bash92: They are being owed before but as soon as Ekiti election dawn on them they have settled all workers being owed, Aregbeshola even pay june salary before the month of june end(Oyinlola style:Never owe worker there salary through out is tenure). The fear of workers in Osun state is the begining of wisdom for Aregbe.

He didn't pay because they lost Ekiti, he paid when d federal allocation for the month of may arrived, the head of the civil servant said it. What is even the noise about d civil servant all about? Is the government not responsible for other inhabitant of d state that are not state civil servant? Y don't u talk about his intentions for the state as a whole? Don't u guys have ur own manifestoe? Leave this man alone, allow d pple to vote based on how their lifes has been affected. Haba

salaksmana: How Aregbesola plans to win on August 9 I don't know. You pay workers salary almost at the end of the second month, you refuse to pay pensioners, you kept students at home for more than 5 months and still counting, you make life miserable for traders, you go about abusing the people you govern at your rallies telling us we are blind and ungrateful if we say we can't see what you've done, you go about abusing your opponent and counting your achievements instead of telling us what you have in plan for next 4 years.

Now I see,dis ur post shows u're in the opposition because those are d pple he reffered to as blind, dose that does not belong to any political party never said they can't c what he's doing, it is only d opposition. Am not saying Aregbesola is a sainta, but u sound biased. And out of 31sins of him u mentioned in ur original post; only 3 or 4 is genuine, d rest are total crap.

RedReact: Thank you Zionope.
I will also like to hear from the man himself too, so as to establish the truth further; you know that out of the mouth of two to three witnesses shall the truth be established.

U're right.

Chaleeee:

I reside in Ife too. My neighbor came back home last night bragging how his party "dealt with PDP" in Ife East that evening. There are 2 men at the Adult Emergency Ward of OAUTHC as at this morning.

Don't ask me for pictures of the unfortunate men....its simply ugly.... even doctors are on strike. make their case pathetic.

I am not saying dey did not clash but try read d original post again, d clash in my area was because d pdp guys tried to block d apc team 4rm campaining in a particular street but not because they shouted APC and no one answered. Ok tell me where d vehicles were burnt.

femimike1: where in Ife do you Reside? Does the Incidence occur? if Yes, Tell us your Side of the Story..

Yes it happend , but what actually occured depends on d part. Apc and pdp clashed at some point because their campaing train jammed each other and at other side because pdp loyalists waylayed d apc campaign troop. No burning of vehicles whatsoever.

I don't doubt Omisore's success here in Ile-Ife cause PDP have successfully poisened pple's mind against Aregbesola here, though I dnt know how far they've gone in other part of d state but Aregbesola don try for the state sha.

Some of the workers that are saying he wount return to office can not even say why, all dey say is dat "we hear d man is not mentally stable, he can decide to do anything 2morrow"
