Budget Padding by Lagos Assembly is unfortunate and fraudulent. -Princess Abiodun Oyefusi

-

The Senatorial candidate of the PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY at the 2019 general elections in Lagos State, Princess Abiodun Oyefusi has decrribed the 2019 Lagos State budget signed into law by the new Governor of Lagos State Mr Babajide Sanwoolu as unfortunate and fraudulent.


In a press statement released on Thursday, the ikorodu born princess and daughter of the late Ayangbure of Ikorodu described the act wherein members of the assembly padded the budget with a whooping N21 Billion of theirs as both unfortunate and fraudulent especially as Lagosians are already battling with the prevailing harsh economic realities.


The Senatorial candidate described the attitude of the law makers as selfish and exploitative and called on Lagosians to resist such insensitive and careless act by people's that are expected to represent their interests.


Finally she advised the lawmakers that much is expected from them as representives of the people and hence should always put the interest of the populace above any personal or group interest.

The aftermath of assault and violence leaves a profound mark on victims, both physically and psychologically. His shirt was left disheveled, hair tousled, and expressions frozen in a mix of confusion and  shock as he grappled with whether to plead, escape, or simply endure the onslaught of blows that landed in his face.  It was 3 years ago, Popular Anambra-based pastor, Chukwuemeka Odumeje, known as ‘Indaboski Bahose the Liquid Metal,’ got manhandled by security agents in Onitsha. Odumeje, a sole individual, had attempted to protest the demolition of his church by  a team of government officials accompanied by armed security personnel . The widely reported incident, in which Odumeje was publicly subjected to inappropriate treatment by security personnel, garnered considerable public attention.  But rather than addressing the injustice of the experience he suffered, much of the public discourse centered on his lack of supernatural response. Many questioned why Odumeje...

Ignore all machinations, Sola Ebiseni remains the Governorship candidate of Labour Party. Once again, the Labour Party Campaign Organisation is inundated with calls on the purported replacement of Chief Sola Ebiseni, our Governorship candidate, with Ayo Olorunfemi less than 24 hours to the Ondo State Governorship election tomorrow. Contrary to the false report, the candidacy of Ebiseni was the decision of the Party presided over by the National Working Committee led by Julius Abure of which Ayo Olorunfemi is a member after the latter, who was a placeholder, voluntarily withdrew his candidacy backed with sworn affidavit, an undisputed fact confirmed by the Courts. For the umpteenth time and avoidance of doubt, Ayo Olorunfemi was not a party to any of the cases either at the High Court or the Court of Appeal and his Appeal as an Interested party was dismissed. There is no subsisting order of any court directing the INEC to remove or replace the name of Chief Olusola Nehemiah Ebiseni and ...
