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.

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
