Re : Dissecting Senator Bukola Saraki's homecoming By Tijani Olaegbe This same post appeared in the Sunday Punch of November 22, 2020 on page 34. Showing that the piece enjoyed wider coverage than just social media as may be assumed. To that extent and the fact that the story was authored by one Alabi Olayemi Abdulrazak said to be a political researcher in Ilorin, Kwara State, inflamed my passion to run a critique/review of the position, perception, insinuation, projection and prognosis of the writer. However, going forward, the good aspect of the story was that Alabi Olayemi Abdulrazak endeavoured to, whether by omission or Commission, consciously or unconsciously, put his biases on the table for discerning minds to observe and analyse.    Obviously, with available facts and evidence, such bias position always diminishes intellectual capacity to pen without denying or sacrificing the reality of SECOND STORY.  Indeed there is second story as the celebrated nov...

World Bank, FGN endorsed IVTEC, Ajase Ipo Kwara State

Reminder: World Bank, FGN endorsed IVTEC, Ajase Ipo Have you seen a story about IVTEC being a filling station? I have questions. Why will Vice President Yemi Osinbajo recommend IVTEC for adoption by other states and our legislators will seek to run it down? The World Bank must be probed for collaborating and partnering the same IVTEC. Federal Government must answer questions for spending millions sponsoring students even before  IVTEC was accredited.  The IVTEC  management must be quizzed for being prudent with staff recruitment and curbing huge wage burden pre-accreditation! And why will NABTEB approve IVTEC to offer certified programs when the college is run like a filling station? Why will KWHA run down a college that’s showing the way in vocational training in Nigeria? If that school loses its collaboration with FGN and World Bank, you know who to ask, Kwarans.
