Okay, He didn't retrench right? How about aged workers? Did he left them in service? Common sense should answer that. I will upload a picture of my chemistry lab and the classroom. Mind you, I never said 300k, I said 30k, but you have to know that I'm doing my project work now, and all the reagent and apparatus are bought by students, some apparatus cost 120k, some reagent cost 40k, add it up, without money for characterization. Tell you what? Those schools paying 120k, won't have to go to other institution for characterization or buy those expensive apparatus because it it right there in the lab, which means you spend more when you economize.

Facts, hard facts from people on the ground not paid internet trolls

Thanks bro for your input. Let those on the ground in Ondo tell us about the achievement of the water fountain governor

The grassroots without the internet won't listen yo your arguments here . .if you want your candidates to win . .Appeal to the sentiments of the grassroots by whatever means . .shikena . . .

What is certain however is that the Iroko administration will go down in history as the worst thing that has befallen the sunshine state going by the kind of projects it has chosen to execute, the quality of those projects and most regrettably the manner at which it has launched unending media propaganda against the people whose taxes it has misappropriated seemingly attempting to force them to see a shining sun at 2:00am.
My major concern has been the adverse effect of four years of propaganda on the people, the evil lessons that might impact on an undetermined future leader of the state. Let me make this a little clearer, it has never been experienced in Ondo State that a government will force civil servants to stage rallies to endorse what they have files to prove is a day light fraud. The ethics of civil service that says civil servants could be fired for participating in partisan politics has turned on its head, I visited government offices where the orange T shirt was the official uniform and that was as of June 2011. I can only imagine what goes on there at this ‘eve’ of the election. Learning from the previous administration which in an attempt to tame Mimiko himself withdrew the power of the office of the Secretary to the State Government, Mimiko had withdrawn the political and especially the financial powers of most Commissioners making him the only one that can award any contract above 1million naira in any Ministry in Ondo State.
The dignity, independence and impartiality of the state judiciary had also been compromised under Mimiko’s administration. We now experience some bizarre judgments coming from a supposedly bench of high esteem. The state judiciary now takes orders from the chief executive, the state PDP has an array of this victimizing verdicts in a rather shameless display of judicial activism which I do not intend to enumerate here. The verdict on the changing of political party by the House Representative Member from Akure Federal Constituency is another worrisome precedence.
The State House of Assembly had completely lost its voice, absolutely nothing is heard of or from it. What is the hope for the people?
What is most dangerous is the attitude of the law enforcement agency. The Nigeria Police Command had also been bought over by the administration. That is not farfetched considering the manner at which they stormed the house of Mr. Kunle Oniya searching his home without a search warrant; the handling of the violence that marred the Adefarati Memorial Lecture, the arrest and charging of Albert Akintoye and others; the immediate release of arrested buyers of voters’ cards. The defence version by the police on the attack of the convoy of ACN’s flagbearer for October gubernatorial elections among others are strong indications to the fact that Dr. Mimiko knows how and has indeed bought the state Police Command over.
The non-availability of public facilities for the use of opposition parties is another worrisome legacy the Iroko administration will be leaving behind. The Akure Town Hall has become inaccessible, the state radio and television station will not even accept payments for jingles from any other political party than that of the Governor. The state Newspaper (Hope) had lost decorum and would publish the worst lies against any perceived opposition not weighing the legal, moral, ethical or even job security consequences of such in a decent post Iroko government.
The day I organized a debate for all Gubernatorial candidates in the then Ondo State and had to answer some question from the SAR- Student Affairs while taking the release of the University’s Public Address System for the debate, Mama asked me why I was bringing politics to campus. She showed me a copy of the Daily Sketch where the Kunle Olajide Campaign Organisation had advertised on the front page that its campaign train was moving to that campus by courtesy of the Analyst Club (which I pioneered), I was more scared, than shocked. I might get rusticated for bringing politicians to campus. Today, student leaders will openly campaign with Iroko team and be on his entourage to as far as Abuja to receive awards, jeopardizing their lives even when bursaries are unpaid. Militancy is gone, vibrancy is dead, decency and pride is thrown out of the window; the aluta spirit can and has been circumvented by Iroko.
The bottom line is this, everything Mimiko touches turns sour, he is fast destroying the scanty remaining tender fabric that hold the morality and sanctity of government in Ondo State. Money wasting jamborees in the name of anniversaries; unrealistic names for frivolous projects; ignoring calls for transparency and accountability calling white orange has become the order of the day. If conscious efforts are not made, future administration might take clues from these insensitive attitude to governance ironically called caring heart and even take it to worse levels. It is unimaginable that any sane man can look at the activities of government in Ondo State in the past three and a half years and say “I am not tired yet, I want to continue to do what I am doing”. You look into the lenses of a camera you know is beaming your image and voice to the world and you say you want to continue to borrow 50million Naira on our behalf without our approval and no courtesy of telling us exactly what project that is meant for. You want to continue to ignore our questions as regards how much each of those caging bus stops, water fountain etc. cost? You will not answer why your administration had not commissioned a single road, why Sunshine FC still plays at Ijebu Ode after you have spent your four years term in office? We have seen in practice what your idea of government is, you have done your best, but sorry that is not the kind of government we neither desire nor deserve in Ondo State.
Well, there is no crime is attempting to fool the whole 5million indigenes of Ondo State again; the crime is if we allow that to happen.

So where is PDP in all this equation?

Appears the ACN machinery are out in full force . .how interesting . . .

Godspikin:


As an Ondo Indigene, an Akoko man who grew up in Ondo town, one thing i can say for sure is that, our Governor spends a lot of our money on people like you who cleans up his mess on social media sites and you guys are doing a hell of a job defending what is not seen, when it is quite obvious to all what actually obtains.
One thing "you people" always evade are the issues raised and you defend him using sentiments, i have lived most of my adult life in Lagos and Ondo state where i was brought up.
Fashola talked about the rate of UNEMPLOYMENT (from what i have read here ooo, except of course we have two versions of this thread) in Ondo State vis a vis what could have been, given the resources at the disposal of Mr Governor being the only "Oil Producing" Governor in the southwest, one would expect that an intelligent response and at least a response that will convince us that you are worth being on his payroll would be to tell us what he has done in that regards and not sentiments.

If you are well informed you will agree with me that during the time of Pa Ajasin more than 6 companies were created to absorb graduates, examples of such include Oluwa Glass company, Ile Oluji Cocoa Products company, Ifon Ceramics, Nirrowi Timber and Wood processing Company in Ondo, and many more WITHIN JUST FOUR YEARS of a SINGLE TENURE. Also note that the rate of unemployment then was quite low, yet someone felt concerned, shouldn't the one with a bigger challenge (MIMIKO) be more concerned
Instead of at least trying to rescuscitate the DEAD Industries, he is leaving them DEADER (Permit me to use that BAD word to describe how bad the situation is)
Pa Adefarati created the Ondo State Oil Producing Area Development Commission during his own time, this Commission employed (and still do) a lot of people, DEVELOPED (as it ended with his tenure) the Oil Producing Area that had been neglected before his time. He was the first "Oil Producing" Governor to take such a step, replicating the idea of NDDC.
Pa Adefarati also established the Adekunle Ajasin University that absorbed a lot of unemployed graduates as at that time. He did also start the establishment of a Tomato Processing factory but he could not complete it, even though the Projest was about 75% completed when he was betrayed by the JUDAS we all know... SERIAL BETRAYER... SERIAL JUDAS, i would have said SERIAL KILLER but i dont want to be sentimental like you (i believe i havent said that, have i?)

I will really like you now to tell us what MIMIKO has done in the area of EMPLOYMENT (that is so convincing that we should vote for him, against the backdrop of achievements discussed above), real facts please, i would rather you lie though so i can tell Nairalanders who don't know, who you would want to mislead the REAL TRUTH.

Before commenting please note:
1. I have a friend undergoing a training programme on Power generation powered by the Lagos State Government, he is an Ondo Indigene, because he wasn't offered such an opportunity in his state, which Lagos offered.
2. My mother who i love so much is a Labour Party Member (a party faithful), so you can be assured i am not here to talk party, but to say the FACTS as they are.

For your information I am not on the payroll of Mimiko. And if he would ever pay me, he will pay me for my services which will run into eight digits. And such service will be one of the services I and my company do provide for any client; be it government, companies or individual.
Unemployment is national problem. So Ondo stae is not an isolation. That is why I always encourage jobless people to think about how they can find something to do using their skill and talent and not wait for a government that will provide the job.
Having said that there is no single government in any state of the Federation that has been able to provide sizeable employment.
However ask your friend that is undergoing training on power generation very well, the training is Federal Government sponsored. Not LASG sponsored.

• 2 Billion Naira went down the drain in distress Banks.
• 800 Million spent on Government house renovation
• 3 Years of Dr. Olusegun Mimiko Administration: No reasonable project to commission with over 3 Billion monthly income plus Millions of IGR. OGUN state with 1.4 Billion Naira monthly Allocation presented over 30 projects to the President to commission.
• Each Bus Stop in Akure costs 50 Million Naira.
• Alagbaka Bus Stop with 250 Million Naira Water Fountain.
• Isn’t it an indictment that inspite of large allocation there is no portable water to drink in the oil rich state in 3 years of Mimiko’s administration?
• Running Ondo State as a family enterprise with over 20 family members in the cabinet is an enslavement of the highest order.
• With over 150 Million Naira in 35 months, the highest ever, and perhaps the only oil producing state in the south west with no concrete nor durable project on ground.
• VC AAUA Prof Femi Mimiko squandered 1.5 Billion Naira on distressed classroom project.
• Femi Mimiko spent 200 Million on VC’s House renovation.
• Femi Mimiko wasted over 100 Million on Road Construction in AAUA.
• Femi Mimiko runs AAUA as a family affair with over 48 family members as AAUA staff.
• Femi Mimiko wasted 10 Billion Naira on Flowers in AAUA.
• SUNSHINE STATE Heritages gone moribund during Gov Mimiko’s administration namely: Oluwa Glass Igbokoda, Okitipupa Oil Palm Company Okitipupa, Ifon Ceramic, Cocoa Industry, Ileoluji, Nirowi Ondo, Arigidi Tomato Company, Alpha D Company Ikare.

WHY MUST MIMIKO BORROW AMIDST OUR HUGE FEDERAL ALLOCATION? See attachment.

SAY NO TO SECOND TERM!

flexya: So where is PDP in all this equation?

PDP kee PDP is dead long time ago in ondo state

Since Mimkio loyals won't state our achievements, I'll tell nairaland about them
1. We built market
2. We built mega school ( yet to function)
3. Install water fountain
4. Install street light in Akure
4. Mother and child health care ( very good)
5. Diagnostic centre (Hospital). Very good idea but our Gov started late
6. I almost forgot the bus stop in Akure

God Bleas Nigeria

In your "analytical mind", the aged should not be retired.
Now I get it. You are indeed a product of bad school system. I pity your employer.
Meanwhile wait for Mimiko to buy reagent for your thesis. He will even write the thesis for you!

jeroton: PDP kee PDP is dead long time ago in ondo state

Na you kill am

Alxmyr:

You said you detest making unneccessary comment, but thats just what you just did.
Mimiko did not and I repeat, did not retrench any worker in Ondo state. I follow events in the state closely.
You said the state University has just only 3 classroom blocks and shitty lab. Though I have never been to that school before
but my friend who graduated from the school in 2005 feel[b][/b][font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font] you are lying that you are student of the school. Because, seven years ago when he graduated from faculty of Science, he said they had functional classrooms and laboratory.
You are right that some parents would prefer to pay 300k as tuition fee. But majority of parents in Nigeria today cannot afford 300k. By the way, has LASU turn to Harvard or Canbridge because of the fees they are paying?
If planting flowers is for Fashola government but for you and me, why would you and me go to prison for not planting flower? Or are you saying LASG outreached its boundary?

I will like intelligent Nairalanders to be observant of their body movements, they will never argue with FACTS, they will rather attack you or argue with sentiments, i will expect anybody who will talk about Ondo state issues to know exactly what we are talking about here, not those who dont even know the capital city of Ondo State if asked, or the road that leads there, to come here and say what is not... I follow events in the state closely... when a resident of the state who just left the place (i guess, he may still be there) cos students were asked to go home because of the coming election.
I finished from Ladoke Akintola University Ogbomosho, it may not be the best school in the world but it is 100 times better than Adekunle Ajasin University infrastructurally and in every sense, i have been to LASU and i can say it is 200 times better too, i am not trying to brag, what i am saying is this if you should compare schools, make reasonable comparism not LASU and HAVARD. What about LASU and Adekunle Ajasin or say LASU and LAUTECH or say LAUTECH and Adekunle Ajasin University, you can't even say LASU and UNILAG or OAU and LAUTECH because LASU, LAUTECH and Adekunle Ajasin UNiversity are all state owned schools hence comparing them is reasonable. OAU and UNILAG are FEDERAL schools so you will expect more funding and consequently Greater level of development.
Comparing LASU with HAVARD is simply comparing NIGERIA with THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA... even a fool knows the difference.

Your friend feels... am curious
in 2005... dats about 7 years ago.... meeehnn, be smart!... we all know exactly what is happening here...

WE (NAiraLAnders) want FACTS not LIES and SENTIMENTS. Be real, say something that can be verified, or else you'll loose you wage this month, your BOSS is monitopring.

Check out PDP rally for OLUSOLA OKE in AKURE today. The man is in the race full force.

If u want to save mimiko u don't need to be talking here just bring ur voters card to ondo state to come and vote but if can't do that its just a pity cus u need to come here see things urself.

If aged workers are retired, how about replacing them with some fresh graduate? That is for that, so indeed I'm paying more than 120k indirectly, just like LASU which you complained about, yet they have access to better learning.
I must say this, Femi Mimiko, which is the VC of the UNI made some excellent policy, which are best for student,I really like him, but He should treat his staff better

That AAUA has only 3 classrooms and dead labs?

more pix of AAUA. These are the facts.

Godspikin:

Oh! I see... we understand

Thank God, you did.

Dude, those pictures are faculties; built by ETF, and the blue one was built by SKYE bank. Besides that, it is the blue one that is recent, all other ones were built God knows how long. You copied it from the school site. They are faculties.

Alxmyr:

http://www.adekunleajasinuniversity.edu.ng/faculties.php

For your information, i know those buildings veeeery well, for you it is only on the web that you can access it, i know a lot about it and i will tell you that the VC did not build those neither did the Governor brother, they were INITIATED before he got there....

flexya: So where is PDP in all this equation?

Check out this too. Today's rally at Akure for Olusola Oke of the PDP.

The blue one is the Social and Managenent faculty, followed by science faculty and the other two are the same, post graduate school. The lecture theatres are INTERCONENTAL HALL AND ETF HALL, the classrooms are Block A and B opposite law faculty and the third classroom is law classroom.

Nairaland, I'm going offline cos my IPad is low, since Mimiko won't give us Electricity in akungba. I will reply to lies in the morning.

Alxmyr:

Thank God, you did.

Yes i did, if you take contracts from someone wont you stick your neck for him, so that if he returns a second term you can continue the fleecing??

Be smart!
dont just come here with pictures you downloaded, none of those buildings were built by him, a student of the school who knows better just confirmed it, so you'll know, incase you doubt me. There is a two storey building in the school (this building was inherited from the secondary school that once owned the land where the school presently sits) which is the major Lecture theatre being used. There are also two blocks of about 5 or 6 classrooms asides these, you do not have any other 'Lecture theatre" that you can point to, talk about what you know please.... urrrghhh

I hope Akeredolu wins , but at the end i fear it will look something like LP-55%, ACN-30% and PDP-15%

Compare PDP rally to ACN mother of all rally....

Even at night, there is a wide difference...
