GOVERNANCE AND ECONOMY: A VIEW BEYOND PARTISANSHIP



"Don't tell me what you value, show me your budget, and I'll tell you what you value."Joe Biden

Full implementation of the much 'FETED' 2016 budget hope may have been dashed already. Nigeria is 40% off her major revenue generation according to report .

The economy has been brought to its knee. I heard the president saying 'NO ROOM' for free money again as we need to diversify our economy from the mono. I nodded my head,YES YES YES!

I ask myself,where are we diversifying to? Is it manufacturing without electric generation ?

Oh,sorry! Agriculture with Fulani herdsmen invasion, destruction, killing and maiming?
Tourism without proper planning or road map?

Education without adequate funding and trial and error policies?

Do you mean with BOOBA OPA relationship that exists between executive and legislative arms of government? Shior!

If you are one of the 'hailing hailers' out there;listen to yourself anytime you speak again and again. Now that civil servants salary is on recess,where is your employment hope? The pot holes on our roads,power generations, the job loss,the economy hardship etc may not go soon. If you doubt me,listen to SGF,Finance and information minister, Vice-president and others or read more about their recent submission on the nation's affair.

Left to me,We need VIABLE economy team right now than we need anti corruption team. Fighting corruption is good, but leaving economy in comatose is worse. We have more security challenges now than we had in the past. fact!

There is one good thing about LIE,when you have no one to lie against anymore,you simply fall victim of your trick.

In the famous statement and provocative poem written by Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) about the cowardice of German intellectuals:

" First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did speak out— Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Lest I forget, hope my Westerners are enjoying the robust 'appointment' they once look up to in 'ASO' rock ooo? Someone said the JAGABAN boogu himself is angry. I said,it cant be possible though,i read something so close in 'THE NATION NEWSPAPER sha. A beg,make una take am develop our region too. Next time,we go learn beta. #dazzol

APC Governorship Aspirant, Atinuke Omolayo, Participates in Delegate Congress in Emure

October 25, 2025 A former governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Mrs. Atinuke Oluremi Omolayo (née Okeya), who was duly screened and cleared by the party’s National Screening Committee, has demonstrated uncommon party loyalty by stepping down for Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji and actively participating in the delegate congress held today in her Eporo Ward, Emure Local Government Area. Mrs. Omolayo, who was warmly received with an Ọ̀wọ̀ song by jubilant party members, expressed appreciation to her ward for the support they gave her when she initially declared her intention to contest for governor. She explained that her decision to step down for Governor Oyebanji was informed by his wide acceptability across the state, sterling performances in office, and commitment to Ekiti’s growth and development, which she described as derivatives of continuity. While addressing the crowd, Mrs. Omolayo urged party members in Eporo Ward...

Ignore Rumours: APC Confirms Governor Oyebanji’s Name to Be Submitted to INEC on January 16, 2026

…As APC Spokesperson Reiterates Official Candidate List Ahead of Publication The APC Integrity Caucus has moved to dismiss what it describes as a reckless and senseless rumour being circulated by a few individuals posing as party members. The gossip, they said, claims that the party “does not intend to submit” the name of Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). In a statement released on Thursday, November 14, 2025, the caucus said such claims are baseless and should be ignored by every well-meaning member of the public. “Since the successful conduct of our governorship primary on October 27 and the ratification by authorised delegates on October 29, some mischief makers have been whispering that the party will not submit Governor Oyebanji’s name to INEC. This is completely false,” the statement read. The caucus emphasized that the APC operates according to a clearly defined timetable, which specifies the dates for submissio...
