Ogun West Youths insist on Awoso for Deputy Speakership



The Youths of Ogun West under the auspices of Ogun West Project Forum drums support for the Honourable member representing Yewa North 1 State Constituency, Hon. Adegoke Adeyanju Awoso for the position of Deputy Speaker, Ogun State 10th House of Assembly. 


In the press release made available by the Publicity Secretary of the group, Comrade Olusola Ojekunle, he said, "Hon. Awoso is the choice of Ogun West Youths and other major stakeholders because of his track records, vibrancy and commitment to serve humanity. Awoso sincerely demonstrated these traits in the 9th Ogun State House of Assembly and he has showcased selfless service towards humanity and commitment to Prince Dapo Abiodun's agenda, to better the lives of the people in Ogun State". 


While encouraging other Lawmakers to support and cast their vote for Awoso, the statement reads "If you, as the Honourable Members of the 10th Ogun State House of Assembly wants efficiency, you cannot sacrifice competency on the altar of compensation or gender. The position of a Deputy Speakership shouldn't be traded as a compensation to anyone rather for merit and competency. Whoever that emerges as a Deputy Speaker must be able to stand as the Speaker even whenever the later is not available. 


Setting the record straight, Hon. Adegoke Adeyanju Awoso, who served as the Chairman House Committee on Health had sponsored Two (2) Bills on the floor of the 9th Ogun State House of Assembly on health insurance and Public Health. Likewise he did co-sponsor other three (3) Bills. Awoso is known for his regular attendance at the proceedings of the House as well as his robust and rational contributions to general issues as they affect the good people of Ogun State. It can be recalled that Hon. Awoso during his first term sponsored over 200 of his constituents who are till today, benefiting from the public health insurance scheme he sponsored. Till this moment, no other Legislator came close to his giant stride in this regard. Many are members of his constituency who have carried out eye surgery, pneumonia, hernial and other major health surgeries which would have cost them a fortune. 


Reflecting further on the track record of Hon. Adegoke Adeyanju Awoso in the 9th Assembly, the group opined that Awoso has been the voice of the masses and image maker of the Ogun State House of Assembly. One of the state roads in Yewa North (Imasayi-Ayetoro road) embarked upon by the Dapo Abiodun's led administration was born out of Awoso's agitation on the floor of the 9th Assembly Chamber. In addition, through his appearance in many media outlets, he had successfully iterated the members of the public on the activities of the 9th Assembly as well as the Prince (Dr.) Dapo Abiodun led administration.



Hon. Awoso's contribution and representation didn't only benefit  his constituency but Ogun West and the entire state in general. He was at the forefront on the issue of the abandoned Ipokia Polytechnic at the Chamber which necessitated Governor's visit to the abandoned site of that project. He was as well instrumental to closing down an unauthorized gas plant which was posing danger to the Students and Teachers of Anglican Grammar School in Ilaro.


While we are proud of Hon. Adegoke Adeyanju Awoso's Competency and Achievements, we therefore openly canvas for support from all elected Honourable Members of the Ogun State 10th House of Assembly  for Hon. Awoso. His track records have positioned him to be the right candidate for the job of Deputy Speaker, Ogun State House of Assembly.

Mr President’s misstep happened because he is human like all of us: No big deal

Agba'kin' Wale Junaid  It is pettiness taken to its apogee when I read Atiku Abubakar taunting our President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, over his mild misstep while boarding a parade vehicle at the June 12 Democracy Day celebrations in Abuja earlier today.  Yes, Mr. President missed his steps while climbing into the truck at the June 12 Democracy Day celebration and tripped. Every Nigerian knows that Mr. President had a knee surgery sometimes in 2021 which may make him susceptible to missing his steps.  The most important thing is that Mr. President immediately went on with the ceremonial rounds and completed the activities for the day looking very fit, lively, hale and hearty. For Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to descend to such abyss clearly confirmed that his perpetual political misadventure has become an obsession looking for avenues for temporary media attention.  Alhaji Atiku Abubakar was alive when President Joe Biden of United State of America missed his step while boardin

A TALE OF THREE RULING HOUSES

Image
In the town of Ariwoòdọlà, there are three families namely; Gbádéṣeré, Jọláadé and Wojúadé who are entitled to rule over the affairs of the town. The two (Gbádéṣeré and Jọláadé) out of the three ruling houses always struck deal between themselves which have paved the way for them to be rotating power on the basis of four and eight years respectively. All this while, they left out their third family aloof. For 48 years, the third family never knew the secret of the deal between the other two families and the matter became so worrisome for the family of Wojúadé. In a bid to find a solution to their marginalization at different times, the Wojúadé family members sought assistance from other two families. Unfortunately, some family members of the Wojúadé were approached by the other two who have been ruling to thwart the plan of the Wojúadés. Then, it became an issue of 'Ọmọ inú ọká ló ṣe ikú pa ọká' (in-house betrayal). Recently, the Elders of the Wojúadé family went on a deep

OGUN STATE 2024 LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTION: TIME TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION

Image
Local Government is defined as a system of local administration under which local communities and towns which are organized to maintain law and order, provide some limited range of social services and public amenities and encourage the co-operation and participation of the inhabitants in joint endeavour towards the improvement of their living. The problems facing the local government in Nigeria are enormous. Administratively, officials of the local government have not shown quality in managing  resources of the local government. There have always been serious cases of mismanagement and corruption and these have threatened the viability and effectiveness  of the local government. Socially, the local government has become a  dumping ground for low quality staff with a very poor attitude to work. The career and political staff are lagging in their duties. Low quality councilors do not cope with law making functions and do not acquit themselves before the public. Economically, most of the
