Lies and propaganda
Is the hallmark of thier administration…….
Just like his overlord, the factional Publicity Secretary of the party Alhaji Tajudeen Folaranmi Aro has fired blanks in yet another attempt to ‘shoot down’ the name,Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
I believe we’ve made one thing clear in our last write up, if you have all those documents to prove all these baseless accusations, which every well meaning Kwaran understand to be a waste of time, you should know what to do with them.
The best Mr Aro and his overlord could do is lay unsubstantiated allegations and heap more blames on past administrations for their own failures,which is becoming boring and distasteful.
We all remember In their desperate bid to win over Kwara, they sold their ludicrous propaganda to unsuspecting Kwarans ,I’m sure the whole Kwara now know the truth and what is on the other side of the coin after the incumbent party’s sleight of hands at the poll.
I believe everyone still remember the fable of ‘Ghana must go’ bag that Saraki always take from the state allocation, and how he usually board the same flight with the money down to Ilorin to take his own slice of the ‘allocation ’.
The questions everyone is asking now is that now that Saraki is no longer in the state house and no longer ‘have his lackey’ in there ,where are those money going to now? because all those that have eyes and can see will know that things are definitely getting worse by the day.
The said ‘lackey’ whose attempt to make Kwara a self sufficient state and free of debt, created the state internal revenue service, an initiative that has fetched even AbdulRahman government more than a hundred billion Naira.
Speaking of debts, it almost seems like our Governor enjoys complicating the state debt profile, as he kept on borrowing billions upon billions of Naira,of whose impact kwarans are yet to feel, majorly on white elephant projects, in his farcical attempt at creating a legacy.
This is becoming more like an obsession, like a woman scorned, if not, why would the whining Governor retell his unending tales to the visiting Borno State Governor, Zulum, who was only full of praises for the Kwara State university, a strong reminder and legacy of his worst nightmare, His Excellency Sen, Dr, Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
And also why is Saraki still giving a sitting Governor so much sleepless nights?,can someone please tell Mr One Chance Governor that he is already in Government and after his more than two years of lacklustre performance, Kwarans are still awaiting for him to deliver on his electoral promises.
Everyday is another opportunity to give kwarans their best shot at good governance, which is not more than what they deserve, but it has been a sorry case as the incumbent governor has been doing a very horrible job in that regard.
The gate of the court is wide open to all Nigerians,in your attempt to chase shadows, you can still go there and state your case ,it is not as if hasn’t been done before, we all Know the usual outcome.
Aro mentioned promotion of teachers, of what use is the promotion when the pay doesn’t commensurate with their new level, because after two separate promotional exams, the pay is still the same, as a matter of fact the pay structure is now messed up, because we Now have the junior level 7 officer having a better pay than level 8, isn’t that a joke?.
The comedy was taken to its climax when some people were referred to as political bandits, what bigger banditry exist when a government squanders over #300 million on the renovation of a school which wouldn’t cost #100 million to build from scratch.
I still wonder how much it will cost our ‘working’ Governor to repair 600 more.
It wouldn’t surprise many that our state of the Art Government house was also renovated with a sum of #500 million.
And who is the best person to front this travesty of a face saving attempt if not the court jester, Tajudeen Aro, who was reduced to the barest minimum by a member of his own party who is also a cabinet member in the same government he is trying to save from its imminent disgrace.
I’m speaking of the current commissioner of water resources, Alhaji Wahab Femi Agbaje.
The same Aro who was described as “a dishonest and totally confused individual” , by , the honourable commissioner, Agbaje, on a Radio program, that shows his worth to his own party members and how ‘well respected’ he is.
Agbaje further lampooned him ,as a “man that does not have an intellectual value attached to his self.”, that seems harsh but I wouldn’t say it is untrue, I mean that is coming from his own party man and brother.
Aro is just a dispensable stooge used for viral attack by the one chance Governor and his agents.
It will be a great disservice to expect more from a party that have two separate executive councils ,a house falling apart within itself, now who is rejected between the two Publicity secretaries of the party ?
This latest cock and bull story is in no way different from what the party and the Governor have been saying ever since the pair came into office, it was almost as if the governor is already creating excuses for his future failures,the failures that we all can attest to.
And from that moment it glaring to all and sundry that the state is in for a tough spell under this administration.
The good people of Kwara irrespective of the party are urged to save the soul of our beloved state and right the wrongs of 2019, they should make a firm choice and rid the state of the leeches occupying the government house presently.
