HOPE FOR AKURE NORTH CONSTITUENCY

Ayobami Ogedengbe

LET ME GIVE YOU "A SLICE" OF MY POLICY STATEMENT FOR AKURE NORTH CONSTITUENCY.

FOCUS: Public Orientation and Security.

Election is close, deadline for PVC registration is 7 days, celebrities with huge followership on Facebook and Instagram are being paid by the FG to do PVC registration sensitization.

IssOkay.

When we get to office, sensitization exercise on election and other civic responsibilities will be going on all year round and not just during a season. Appropriate agencies such as INEC, NOA, SERVICOM and the likes will be empowered all year round to help our Public Orientation.

242 billion election expense due to high security and the massive inefficiency of our systems can be avoided.
That 242 billion naira if it is spread across 12 months, we would have been able to do a lot in one year than the few we are doing now.

No one is mobilizing INEC staffs into rural areas. In these rural areas, the citizens don't get to see Woli Agba or Frank Donga on Instagram.


Can we start getting it right?

SUPPORT AYOBAMI OGEDENGBE FOR AKURE NORTH CONSTITUENCY AS MEMBER OF HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY ONDO STATE.

Not to forget that I have once funded this PVC registration exercise for my constituency where several people have not registered for their voter's cards, even though the constituency presently has one member in the state House of Assembly who doesn't even visit the constituency - he's been AWOL to those who he is meant to be representing.

Also when some men came to murder some people in his constituency, he wasn't even on record to have said anything about it. The community heads in the said locality were summoned and advised by the Police DPO to contribute 10,000 Naira each (monthly) to help support police mobilization because they have only one van and hardly is there allocation for fuel.

IN A CONSTITUENCY WITH A REPRESENTATIVE IN THE STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY WHERE THE STATE BUDGET COMES TO BEFORE IT BECOMES APPROPRIATED?

Chineke me!

In Four Years, we can't buy 6 Tokunbo Hilux at 6 Million Naira each to Support the Police Force in our constituency?

A fuel Budget of 15,000 Naira Per Week for the 6 Hilux Vans nko? Impossible?

How about a 100,000 Naira for vehicle maintenance EVERY Three months?
That's unachievable?

How much is this multiplied by four years?

15 Thousand x 52 (weeks in a year) = 780,000 Naira x 4 (years) = 3.12 Million.
Multiplied by 6 (Hiluxes) = 18.72 Million Naira (Fuel for Police Vehicle)

36 Million Naira for 6 Tokunbo Hiluxes.

100,000 Naira (thrice a month)
In one year 400,000 Naira.
In 4 Years 1.6 million Naira.
Multiplied by 6 (Hiluxes) = 9.6 Million Naira.

TOTAL: 36 Million + 18.72 Million + 9.6 Million = 64.32 Million Naira.

Do you know how much INEC budgeted for Security alone out of that 242 Billion Naira? About 140 Billion Naira.

Okay, let's do some mathematics. Assuming just 800 house of Assembly members decide to appropriate that 64.32 Million Naira on security for FOUR YEARS. How much will it amount to?

64.32 Million x 800.
That's around 514 Billion if I'm not mistaken.

INEC uses 140 Billion Naira on security during election - 6 months.

Our constituency cannot get 64 Million in 4 years?

Let's not forget that this is simply a constituency budget on Police Vehicle Purchase and Maintenance.

This is the assistance the Akure North Candidate for the House of Assembly, Ondo State, Mr. Ayobami Ogedengbe wants to push for the Police Force at some strategic area commands in the constituency to start with.

What do you think?
My full Policy Statement will include other areas like

* Economy: Creating the enabling policies/environment that will make Akure-North the Best Constituency on the Ease of Doing Business index. #OurEconomicSupportSystem

* Education: Policies to raise the standard of education via the introduction of ICT in teaching and learning processes for students in Rural Areas and Support Systems for Private School owners to ease their burdens and make fees more competitive. 

* Security: A slice is up there. But includes the involvement of the Peace Corps in Akure North Constituency in the Security Structure of the environment. To contract our Peace Corps more frequently in order to encourage them particularly as they currently are not on FG salary scale. More recognition and support to the NSCDC.

These are the three Pillars.

Inside the policy statement also you will find our plans on:

√Power
√Agriculture: Production improvement, Processing, Storage, Value addition, Sales (local and export).
√Agro-security insurance for farmers (Handling herdsmen and crop farmers' clashes).
√Agro-education (for local farmers).
√Sports and entertainment: Talent hunts (competitions)
√Local cultural carnivals

The full copy of the policy statement will be available for download in PDF format.

SO HELP ME GOD

ENCOURAGEMENT The world has enough critics already, be an encourager. Encouragement is something or words that makes someone more hopeful, determined or confident to take certain steps. Most of us, swimming against the tides of trouble the world knows nothing about, needs only a bit of praise or encouragement ~and we will make the goal.  There comes that certain time when you really need to calm down and think of all the steps you've taken, and the ones you are about to take, and then you come to realise that it's so easy to propose on something you want, you imagine it, and you see it coming through as expected, you strategize your plans and set your targets, these you do mostly at the commencement of a new season or year (just like this time), deep inside of you, you list out things you want, and those you don't want, along side things you will start doing and those you will stop doing, these things are your priority in the early days of the year, they keep ringing

THE MAN CALLED GARRI (Things you don't know about Garri)

Garri, is processed cassava tubers, and has become a much wanted staple food in Nigeria. Once considered to be food for the poor, garri is gradually slipping out of the reach of ordinary Nigerians who sometimes cannot do without helping themselves to a plate of eba (or garri flour mixed in hot water) or its soaked version every day. Someone once shared with me that the businesses that will continue as long as human civilisation remains are those businesses that meet the basic needs of man, i.e. food, clothing, health, and shelter. There is a great sense in this. This is because as long as we are alive, we would require good and quality food, good clothing, good shelter and good health to lead an acceptable level of existence. Nigerian communities must begin to look at developing businesses that can address these basic needs. This is why garri processing plant is one great business opportunity that fits this mould. The industrial processing of cassava in Nigeria holds much potentia

THE MISTAKE OF THE CHURCH (Adebowale Ibukun Tosin)

-
Evidently, several youths are tired of church. The old conservative approach void of serious bible study and training in prayer is too weak to keep them in church. While the sermon is on, many are either on twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Whatsapp, just chatting away their time. Quite interesting is how some of these young folks attend church only because their parents have made it compulsory. Left to many of them, they would easily boycott church and just have fun by hanging out with their friends or be watching movies at home. So, here's the simple logic... The church doesn't want to lose these guys. They are vibrant, youthful, energetic, and smart. As a matter of fact, it's widely believed that the future of any organisation, nation, even church depends on the youths. So, in a bid to not lose them, many churches would give them what they want. No matter what it takes! I've seen youth vigils that were nothing more than clubs in the name of praise night. All mann
