DISSOLUTION OF APC STRUCTURES DOWN THE LINE: VICTORY FOR AA. Tijani Olaegbe

DISSOLUTION OF APC STRUCTURES DOWN THE LINE:  VICTORY FOR AA By Tijani Olaegbe Yes, call it war of attrition or conflict of Titans, you are not far from describing the supremacy battle between the party structure and the Governor who incidentally is the leader of the party in the state. This unfortunate incident reflects the doctrine that subscribes to the position that politics is a power game, when in the true sense of it, politics is the art of selfless service to fellowmen. This prolonged power game made Ramoni take the people of this State for a ride for the last 18 months by his abysmal disappointing performance coupled with his failure to take cognisance of his pre election campaign promises. The only achievement and that which is visible is propaganda coupled with blame game. Now that the deed is done and the battle is lost and won, Kwarans are eagerly waiting for the aftermath of the Governor's victory over his platform (APC) that catapulted him to ...

Ondo-Oyo, Herders Crisis: We Must All Work to Douse Tension, says Saraki 1. I have watched with concern the recent development in Oyo and Ondo States in which quit notices were given to Fulani herders and there were subsequent burning of the property of the Fulani herdsmen in some parts of Oyo State. These happenings have increased tension and unduly raised the temperature in the country. 2. The ugly development in these two states are symptomatic of the continued threat to the unity of our country that we have witnessed on a higher scale in recent times and in different parts of the country, including the South-East  and South-South zones.  3. At this point, I strongly appeal to all of us to work for peace and take initiatives that can douse tension. Both the elite and ordinary people have a responsibility to begin to take measures that will reassure the people across board that a united Nigeria will benefit everybody better than a disintegrated country. 4.
