As per one, ọla Baba Salako, her husband, lo n jẹ
As per two, Ọta is supposed to be supplied by two waterworks - Iju Waterworks and Ota Federal water works.
Iju Waterworks is currently undergoing rehabilitation by Lagos Government while FG has stalled over the Ota waterworks because of "inability to secure funding". I don't know the agreement between Lagos and Ogun as regards Iju Waterworks though but no collaboration has really worked between Sanwo and Dapo despite different MOUs they've signed
He killed my ma, he killed my pa, but I will vote for him. That was the slogan on the street that won Charles Taylor the election in 1997.
I know this story well because back then, I had a few Liberian pals who lived in Festac. We spoke a lot. They told me what really happened. They lived it.
Taylor did not win because Liberians loved him. He won because Liberians were scared of him.
Let me explain.
Taylor was the leader of the National Patriotic Front of Liberia, the NPFL. That was the rebel group that fought in the First Liberian Civil War.
After the war ended, he dissolved the NPFL and formed a political party. That party was the National Patriotic Party, the NPP.
The official slogan of the NPP was Liberty, Justice, Discipline, Work.
That was the clean one on paper.
But on the street, the real slogan was different. The real slogan was: He killed my ma, he killed my pa, but I will vote for him.
Think about what that means.
People were saying, you killed my mother, you killed my father, but I will still vote for you.
Why? Because they believed that if Taylor lost, he would go back to the bush and start the war again.
After seven years of war, people were tired. They were traumatised. They just wanted peace, even if it meant voting for the man who caused the war.
So they voted for him, not out of love, out of fear.
On 19 July 1997, Taylor won with 75 percent of the vote. His party also won 49 of 64 seats in the House, and 21 of 26 seats in the Senate.
His main opponent, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, got only about 9 percent.
He was inaugurated as President on 2 August 1997.
My Liberian pals in Festac told me, people did not vote for Taylor to make him President. They voted for him to make him stop fighting.
That is one of the darkest election slogans in African history, because it was not a promise. It was a threat. And the voters heard it clearly.
Tell me in the replies, have you ever heard an election slogan this scary anywhere else in Africa?
Now You Know
If you knew you had no idea what records Dr Pearse actually had access to, why did you quote-tweet me, call me a moron and claim I was embarrassing myself? The irony is that you are doing a fine job of demonstrating that your parents' investment in your education hasn't exactly paid off.
Since your dad studied law, ask him whose testimony should carry more evidential weight: the sworn testimony of a university registrar with access to the academic records of current and former students, or the unsupported claims of a former lecturer who joined the university six years after Tinubu had graduated and never even taught in his department.
I deliberately asked whether you could access your father's academic records simply because you are both alumni of the same university. I wanted to establish whether you understood how access to university records actually works. Your response has shown that you have absolutely no grasp of the very subject you are so eager to defend.
Please, don't keep volunteering yourself as the community clown, sir.
Nobody is as unintentionally funny as Obidients.
Dr Pearse started working at CSU in 1986, while Tinubu graduated from the same university in 1979. Yet, see people celebrating what is an obvious lie. The man even retired from lecturing at UNILAG's English Department as a Senior Lecturer, but these boys genuinely believed he was the Director of Business Administration at CSU.
Una deh smoke something wey deh destroy una sanity.
“Tinubu is a professional bonafide liar. I lectured at Chicago State University for five years, and during that period, he claimed he attended the institution. I was the director of the very programme he claimed to have attended.”
— Former Chicago State University lecturer says.
@Ambientalistor So, which records did Dr Pearse actually have access to, then? Tinubu's personal documents or the school records of Tinibu? And what exactly do you think I was referring to in my tweet when I called Dr Pearse a liar?
You are a funny dude. 😂
@lakunle70 Maybe you should have used the Hadith of "the food for one person suffices for two, the food for two suffices for four and the food for four suffices for eight" I used to cite to eat people's food during NYSC camp to counter her 😂😂😂😂
That's my best Hadith
@femiazubuike@nuru_barca It is about the exams... Check paragraph 2 of frame 1. The problem was explicitly stated and if you check responsibilities of schools, they still allow for foreign exams but it has been made a supplementary exam while the national exams are made primary exams.
I am struggling to understand the SOS in this mail.
Let me ask you: If I have a secondary school education in UK and I didn't write IGCSE and decide to write WAEC, how that scenario be treated in the UK?
Or let me say:
If I own a secondary school in the UK and my students don't participate in GCSE but write WAEC, how will the education board in the UK treat such issue?
DANGER! THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS ABOUT TO DRAG NIGERIAN EDUCATION BACK TO THE STONE AGE!
From 2027, the Federal Ministry of Education wants to force EVERY private and international secondary school in Nigeria to make students sit for WAEC, NECO or other approved Nigerian examinations, even when those students are already pursuing internationally recognised qualifications.
Schools that refuse risk losing their licences!
Instead of urgently modernising our outdated curriculum, fixing dilapidated public schools, building functional science laboratories, training teachers and introducing globally competitive learning standards, we are busy creating policies that threaten educational innovation.
Why are we more interested in forcing successful schools to conform than in raising the standards of failing schools?
The world is moving towards artificial intelligence, robotics, critical thinking, practical skills and competency-based education. Yet we are obsessed with forcing everyone into the same examination system.
We should be exporting educational excellence, not restricting it!
Nigeria cannot become globally competitive by punishing schools that dare to do things differently.
This policy must be urgently reconsidered before we sacrifice another generation’s educational opportunities on the altar of regulatory control.
LT: There's a rate at which someone will be attending conferences (of all kinds), I just know they can't be serious with their life/they don't have anything doing.
@nuru_barca It is students that they’re giving exemptions not school. It will be easier to just write the exams and the foreign exams as supplementary than going through the exemption stress
