THE LEGACIES OF THE MAN ADAMS ALIU OSHIOMOLE IN EDO STATE

-



The launching also saw the emergence of the Edo Mandate Recovering Group A PDP Stalwart Daniel Ogbegie , Esq. who addressed the gathering at length  said the group is not to serve as a rival group to the party but another platform to galvanic Edo people who would hitherto not have the chance to be on the PDP table to contribute their quota towards recovering this mandate.

He further to express the will of the Edo people to see the end of the plundering of their rescources that went on under Mr. Adams Oshiomole in the last 8 years. He enumerated:

Oshiomole sourced 30 billion Naira from the stock market for the Benin city storm water project but after 8 years, he cannot tell Edo people how the money was spent. As of the handover, Oshiomole is handing over a phantom project to Obaseki. 30 billion Naira has gone down the drain.

Oshiomole invited the President Buhari to come to Edo to commission renovated schools and resurfaced roads, cost of which he continues to hide from the people. For 8 years he failed to embark on any project that has direct economic benefits for Edo people.In the whole of Oshiomoles two terms he did not employ one person into Edo State civil service. He destroyed the civil service and institutionalized corruption and mediocrity in public institutions.

Under Oshiomole the state House of Assembly became an institution under the governors office. A few days ago just at the end of his tenure they approved over 5 billion naira for the governor, a great disservice to Edo state.

He was also responsible for the destruction and the decertification of all the schools of nursing in Edo state while primping himself over the construction of a shell of a Central hospital without staff or equipment.

Oshiomole also desecrated the traditional institutions of the Edo people with his constant out pouring of vituperation on the high chiefs of the Edo people culminating in the supspension and then dethronement of the Onojie of Uromi on a whim 

This is the legacy Adams Aliu Oshiomole left in Edo state

A LAGOS YORUBA SENATOR, Ogunlewe ACCOUNTS FOR IGBO CONTRIBUTIONS IN LAGOS since they settled in Oyingbo in the Aros 15th Century along with the Bini

Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe wrote this beautiful piece, read and learn. Lagos State belongs as much to the ethnic Igbo as to the Yoruba, Ijaw, Hausa, Fulani, Efik, Idoma, Urhobo, Itshekiri, Edo, and so on who live in it, pay tax, identify with it, and settle in it. That compact was made the moment Nigeria became a single nation, and a successor power to the old principalities who were subdued and who ceded their sovereignty for the new commonwealth of Nigeria. It was pragmatic. The Igbo had the skill and the industry, and Lagos was the seat of the Federal Government of Nigeria and its major port. The Igbo have lived in Lagos since the 15th century when the Aro and other Igbo first settled in good number in a place we now call “Oyingbo” in the era of Benin and the Portuguese trade. The arrival of Dr. Namdi Azikiwe to Lagos in 1937 from Accra after his studies in the United States, stimulated the political and cultural environment of Lagos as no other has before or after

 10 popular Nigerian lies with enormous staying power In Nigeria, once lies and historical myths take roots, they are almost always impossible to uproot. But the stubborn persistence of lies is no reason to give up on correcting them. Find below 10 oft-repeated lies with the most staying power in Nigeria. 1.  That the Nigerian government banned history in secondary schools. In the last few years, the claim that the Nigerian government “banned history” from the national curriculum has become a hackneyed, predictable refrain, and is often uttered in moments of displays of historical ignorance, especially by young people. But this refrain is both dishonest and inaccurate. History was never a mandatory subject at any point in Nigeria’s history. It was always optional before it was discontinued in 2012 because of progressively dwindling student enrollment. History and Government were offered as alternatives to each other for students. That is, you enrolled in either History or Government bu
