You are just mixing stuff up and that shows you don't understand what you are saying. His mom came from that street called Ogbon arugbo not elsewhere. Again, Governor Aregbesola is from Kogi state (Igbira side). Go compare his looks to that of an average Igbira man. lakesidepapa: |

Yes it's Ogbon arogbo. It seems this argument is going extremely somewhere. Everyone knows Aregbe is an Ijesha man and i also gave u the fact as i told u how he's related to me but u're still making the wrong move. I'm done with this Mr Ayo, Today is Monday. Ayo001: |

No bro. Omisore once said he could have himself and few people gone to meet the governor's family members maybe they could talk to him about some of his policies but the real ones are nowhere to be found. Such a wicked, liar (blaming Jonathan) and heartless he-goat looking man. I wonder why people can't storm the governor's office and chase the wasteful spender out. kayfra: |

Do u realized that same Oyinlola is now in APC? Even omisore u are talking about, the money he embezzled when he was a senator is a child play to what Oyin embezzled(all the constituency money) and am very sure thing would be worst had it been he won the last governorship election.

Kylexy3000: I think the start should be that you need to reassess the erroneous assumption that the economy of Osun state depends on salaries of civil servants. I will wonder how you came about that. But better still If you stay on that position, don't you think it's high time we moved away from this dependent and risky position to a commerce based economy in Osun state? With all the vast arable lands in Osun, the share number of human capital in farmers, artisans, various skilled workers, bulk traders and retailers, should this not be the stimulant to an economy rather than salaries? You should then understand the nexus between Aregbe's project in schools, roads and agric |
Re: Aregbesola New Road Construction In Osogbo (pictures) by mapet: 9:12am On Apr 26, 2016 |
Kylexy3000: I think we're getting closer to agreement on few things, but let me clarify some things 1. Unfortunately people will have to pay the price for some of the wrong decisions before Aregbe's government. For example, Oyinlola took a loan to build 3 "world-class stadia" in each senatorial district. Even if he had built it, what would it have done for Osun? But the people did not see anything wrong in it, and could not see that these are contributors to the future current state. 2. When the orientation of my folks at home is to graduate (At school cert, Grade II & I, NCE and BSc)and join the civil service, then we are simply populating an overstretched workforce. The share number of workforce in Osun state local government alone is ridiculous. I have a brother-in-law, a young lad that finished his master in Engineering in UI, yet went to join the Local government. His wife a medical doctor also works for the state. These are young lads that I believe are "wasting" away, when they can bury their head in the sand and "hustle" in more challenging terrain. When Baba Akande was governor and looked at his monthly allocation which could hardly support the work-force, he started a prunning exercise, which was based on certain criteria (For example teachers of Maths, English, Science, Commercial subjects were retained and those of Yoruba, CRK risked being laid off) they called for his head, abused him that he was just a chartered accountant, butdid not have a degree....... fast forward todate, and may be you can draw a nexus between the WAEC performance of Osun students today and the share number of teachers we have..... 3. With regards to industry, first off, the volumes will definitely not be bought in Osun alone, definitely bulk of it will be locally exported to mass market states. There are various value offering to industrialisation. What Osun has currently are these; (a) Vast Arable Land (b) Access via land and Rail (c) Availability of relatively cheap labour (d) Enabling environment (e) Close Proximity to mass markets (Lagos, Ogun and Oyo on the wester flank & Kwara-Niger on the northern flank). Imagine 4 mega factories of an average of 2-3 thousand workforce per factory, where people know they can earn per the volume of work, do you think people will not ditch their useless civil service jobs at the prospect of earning way much more? 1 Like |

olafotad: Are there no contractors in Nigeria that we went to give contracts of Federal Roads and Bridges to Julius Berger, CCEC, Arab Contractors and the likes? Yes let's talk about competence, please name the notable local contractors in Osun state that can do projects of such magnitude? It's simply a matter of logic and choice. Aregbesola was a commissioner in Lagos, he had contractors that worked with him and are proven. He's probably oblivious of those contractors in Osun, if any....... But what is at the heart of this discussion for me, is that we have a departure from the orientation where critical state infrastructure projects are awarded on compensation grounds to indigens. |

Re: Aregbesola New Road Construction In Osogbo (pictures) by olafotad: 10:54am On Apr 26, 2016 |
mapet:That is where I disagree with you ! we have more competent contractors in Osun. Getting contractor from Lagos is a way of syphoning Osun money to Lagos through his allies whom you said he had worked with while he was the commissioner of work in Lagos state. Picture this : people are paying taxes, allocation is coming for the central government but none of this funds is staying in the state. The consequence of this would be economy downturn as we have in the present day in Osun. Furthermore, civil servants whose salaries should be a link by which people (who might not be civil servants) derive economic benefits are not been paid promptly/fully. |
Re: Aregbesola New Road Construction In Osogbo (pictures) by mapet: 2:30pm On Apr 26, 2016 |
olafotad: 1. I do not doubt if we have contractors in Osun (my cousin "was" a government contractor under Oyinlola), What I doubt is if we have contractors of the expected magnitude to execute the projects at the levels set by the government. How is getting contractors tantamount to siphoning money to Lagos? You people just regurgitate some illogic reasoning. I still state that the important thing is getting the job done very well and not a choice between Osun-based or Lagos-based contractors. 2. Allocation of funds and taxes are not leaving Osun. First off Osun's State allocation is of no consequence to the economy of Lagos, if we go by your assumptions. Lagos Island and Alimosho Locals Govt could dwarf the whole of Osun in IGR and worker head count. Secondly,, you will need to also review orientation wrt contractors, are you looking at contracts as one of the ways of sharing national cake or infrastructure development with a potential of boosting commerce. Osun state if not careful will simply be a consumer/rent collecting state. 3. The bold as emotional as it is, is also perception going south developmental wise. The other players in the states are not supposed to depend on civil servant's salaries. They do make money and can hazard a guess that some make more than the civil servants 1 Like |

mapet:Take it or leave it.... Lagos contractors are not from heaven. And I am still on the point that we can do even better ! I have seen situations where Lagos contractors hire those ones here to execute project for them. Furthermore, I believe that you should have more idea about how money get to people through the government and vice versa. Artisans cannot live alone with having people to buy their products and about 70 of Osun workers are government workers. so tell me how they will have sales when salaries are not been paid . This is what we see everyday. I live in Osun and I see this myself. It was bad to the level of transporting sand from Lagos to Osun for building schools. Are there no sand in Osun or is it that those ones here are so bad ? All I can say is that you probably are not living in Osun or you are so ignorant of how governance should be . 1 Like |

olafotad: 1. I do not distinguish who is "Lagos contractor" or "Osun Contractor" you did. What I do know is that contractors are short-listed and those with proven records get the jobs. For example the Airport project was given to the Airforce Engineering unit, which to me is a demonstration of awarding sensitive project to those that are proven. 2. Argument of "Lagos contractors are not from heaven" am afraid, sounds, like inferiority complex issue. If you're looking at what contractors does a project as a yardstick of goverment performance, then I am afraid, the likes of you are living in denial 3. The view that government needs to pass money to the people through salaries, as a priviso to stimulate the economy is limited. Don't get me wrong, Salaries are wages, and it is the responsibility of the employer (government) to pay the employed(workers). But we in Osun needs to move beyond this mentality. Economy is stimulated by government facilitating enabling environment for business growth, so that in the long run, government can increase their IGR. Don't you know that if Osun has IGR in the region of 6-7billion a month, it will be less dependent on the federal government? When Obasanjo withheld Lagos State allocation for almost 2years, Lagos State government was not only able to move on, salaries were never delayed. The reason is that when Tinubu was government, he went on an aggressive drive to increase commerce which had a multiplier effect on internal revenue generation. 4.

mapet:Whenever I see write-ups like this, there is this crucial question that keeps begging for answers in my mind. The question is : can Africa or Nigeria move forward ? When people who ought to think out of the box and develop our political theories join the band wagon. 1.First and foremost, been inferior is when you are not proud of what you have. There is no doubt that some are better than others, it however becomes foolishness when you neglect what you have because you can get better one every time. when will yours develop ? There is no justification for doing that ! Yes you might think that they alone have what it takes but trust me you are probably wrong ! 2. I like your second argument because it shows how confused you are. You are talking about IGR when government gives almost no reason for any big firm to stay in the state. IGRs are generated main from taxes in which company income tax is principal. So tell me how can companies survive when what ought to serve as their income is being taken to Lagos ? You might argue that government should not be that only source of companies' income but it has to start from somewhere given the economic nature of the state. The economic nature of the state however, can then being changed through this approach and not by mere saying since no private investor can come to a state whose economic condition is nothing to write home about and that is why government must champions it. |
