Lessons from Mimiko’s victory

---

The pulsating race to the Ondo State Government House ended last weekend, when the incumbent governor breasted the tape ahead of the other contenders. Of the 18 local government councils in the state, Dr Olusegun Mimiko won in 13, Mr Rotimi Akeredolu of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) won in three, while Chief Olusola Oke of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) won in two. Oke, however, beat Akeredolu to the third position, polling a total of 155,961 votes to the ACN candidate’s 143,512.
Mimiko garnered 260,199 votes. The way my phone was bombarded with congratulatory messages after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announced the results on Sunday, you would think I was one of the candidates. Well, in a way, I was. A week earlier, I had stuck out my neck in this column, saying no man, but only God could cut the Iroko (as Mimiko is popularly called). I had said the incumbent Ondo State governor could only lose his seat, if God decided to hack him down, if people of the state deserted him at the last minute, or if both unlikely situations occurred. But I added that I didn’t see it happening. And it didn’t happen.
God stood by Mimiko, the people in Ondo State formed a bulwark round him, so they re-elected him for a second term in office. But did the opposition rattle the governor while the race lasted? Did the storm ruffle the leaves and branches of the Iroko, even if its roots stood steady and sturdy? It was no picnic, no tea party, as the Labour Party candidate slugged it out with the rampaging forces of the PDP and the ACN. With the PDP, the onslaught against Mimiko was understandable. He had dislodged the party from power in 2009, when the judiciary gave the left leg of fellowship to Olusegun Agagu, declaring him a usurper. So, PDP understandably had an axe to grind. But the ACN? It was an ego battle. A revenge battle.
The National Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, claimed he had supported Mimiko to win back his mandate in 2009 through the courts, spending “millions of pounds” in the process, with the understanding that the Ondo State governor would then join the ACN. Mimiko reneged, allegedly. So, for Tinubu, the aim was to run the man out of town, and show who was the boss. It was a contest between the Iroko and the Lion of Bourdillon (as Tinubu is called).
You now know who got worsted between the two. What are the lessons from the Ondo elections, for both the victor and the vanquished? Many. When you have been elected into office to serve the people, please serve them with all your might. Work while it is still day, for the night cometh when no man can work. The night is the time for re-election. If you spend all the day carousing, gallivanting round the world, and serving yourself, and you want to start working at night, because re-election draws near, it is too late in the day. The people will simply do you in. Mimiko served Ondo people, and in my reckoning, he served well.
I’ve been to the state a number of times, and I’m a witness to the good works in education, healthcare, urban renewal, preservation of the environment, agriculture, and many more. He hit the ground running after his inauguration in 2009, and acquitted himself quite well. Naturally, no drummer can please all dancers, so there will be areas the governor has not touched, or done enough. But by and large, he did well, quite well. But imagine if he had not worked, and just jerked out of stupor few months to election? He would be a sitting duck before the opposition forces.
The electorate would simply have him for dinner, and clean mouth thereafter. The lesson? Serve, and serve well. Make hay while the sun shines. Be faithful to the people, and they will be faithful to you in return. It is an eternal lesson for all public office holders, whether they desire re-election or not. Use the opportunity you have to serve the people well, and they will never be ungrateful. They will never forsake or forget you. And when political enemies come like a flood, the people will raise up a standard against them. Another lesson. When you have the people with you, you can sleep through the storm. However boisterous or tempestuous the waves may be, you sleep merrily on, and even snore if you like.
With the armada unleashed on Ondo State by both the ACN and the PDP, tell me how any incumbent governor could survive, unless he had the people with him. PDP came for a pound of flesh. The ACN came with vengeance, waving the flag of economic integration of the South-west. And Ondo is the only state outside the bag in the region. It was truly do or die. The fact that Mimiko survived exemplifies the Yoruba saying that: “people are the cloth we wear.” Without the people, you were lonely, “alone and palely loitering,” to use the words of John Keats, the British poet. Are you a politician? Never joke with the people.
Never ever treat them with disdain, flippancy or levity. And they will be there for you in your hour of need. When the coyotes come, and even tear your dress, they will be your covering. Yet another lesson. Never ever pigeonhole the electorate. Don’t think because they did your bidding in five other South-west states, they will do it again and again. Each state has its peculiarities. Because Bola Tinubu and the ACN wanted Ondo so desperately, it was easy to cast them in the mould of a conquering army, actuated by anything else except altruism.
They were after Ondo’s oil money. They wanted Ondo to be a vassal of Lagos State. Your treasury will be at their mercy. And of course, Ondo State people resisted the incursion. Mimiko and Labour Party succeeded in building an army of opposition to the take-over bid, telling the people that their resources would be carted away to Bourdillon in Lagos, where Tinubu lives. All is fair in love and war. The electorate, therefore, resisted the invasion by ‘foreign troops.’ If you ask me, Tinubu and the ACN have done a lot for the South-west, liberating the people from the slave camp of the PDP. But ironically, the loss of Ondo is being seen as another kind of liberation, this time, from the ACN.
That tells you that a liberator can turn into a captor or slave master very easily. And that is why Tinubu should have chosen his battles very carefully. Yes, the ACN has every democratic right to have contested for the governorship of Ondo State against Labour Party, but must it be a case of ‘the hen upturned my medicine bottle, I will break its egg?’ No. If the average Ondo person saw the wisdom in economic integration of the South-west, which could be better lubricated by having the region under one political party’s banner, he could not reconcile it with the acrimonious campaign orchestrated by Tinubu. The bid for Ondo State was too virulent, too venomous, malignant and malevolent. And it cast Tinubu too much as an aggressor, simply out to win a personal battle.
The Ondo people felt it was not really about them, but about Tinubu’s bruised ego, and a quest for revenge. So, they refused to be used as cannon fodder. Can our politicians, therefore, separate political and personal battles? For the sake of the region, reconciliation would be necessary between Mimiko and Tinubu in the near future. But with all those toxic words exchanged, won’t it be an uphill task? Tough, really tough. Again, the ACN candidate, and how he emerged. By all means, Rotimi Akeredolu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), is an accomplished person.
A former president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), he is a man of repute. But a partisan politician? We did not know him as one, neither did Ondo people. Many other ACN candidates were out in the field, working towards getting the party’s ticket, and then suddenly Akeredolu got handpicked from nowhere. When those who had worked their fingers to the bones protested, they were told to go to hell. No, that was not the way of democracy. Naturally, those candidates would work against ACN, both from within and outside, and Akeredolu himself turned out to be a rather weak candidate.
He got beaten by Mimiko in his polling unit, and in his Owo local government, he had approximately 46.1 percent of the votes, while Mimiko had 38.2 percent. Compare that with Mimiko’s Ondo West, where the governor won 69.2 percent of the votes, Akeredolu won 15.9 percent, and Oke, the PDP candidate, 14.7 percent. You go to war with your best troops leading the assault, which the ACN did not do, to its own sorrow. Now that Mimiko has got a second term mandate, what is my advice for him? Don’t rest on your oars. Serve the people as if your life depends on it.
Don’t spurn the criticisms that attended the campaign from the opposition. Look at each point on its merit, and do the needful. Only God could have cut the Iroko last Saturday, and He decided not to do so. Stay true to that God. Let me conclude with this text I received last Sunday from George C. Erugo, who lives in Owerri, Imo State: “Governor Mimiko’s victory has earned him additional title of the Bone Crusher, considering the calibre of politicians he defeated. It shows that Ondo electorate has clear direction. He should endeavour to fulfil his campaign promises.” Hmmm. Iroko the Bone Crusher. Just ensure you also crush poverty in Ondo State. Crush joblessness, crush misery and despair. Replace them with prosperity, elevated quality of life, hope and joyfulness. And you will be our hero forever.

2015: Nigeria deserves Buhari as president – Orkar

HENRY IYORKASE

Dr. J.T. Orkar is the elder brother of late Major Gideon Orkar. He was at various times Commissioner for Transport and Works during the tenure of the first civilian governor of Benue State, late Aper Aku. He tells HENRY IYORKASE that at 52, Nigeria is still crawling, insisting that until power is entrusted in the hands of the right leaders, development may be far from the country.
Excerpts:
Nigeria recently celebrated her 52nd independence anniversary. Going by indices on ground do you think the country is worth celebrating at all?
I would like to say that, when a child is born, it calls for celebration but we have never celebrated still birth. So, I have not for many years seen any reason why I should celebrate.
To majority of us, it didn’t matter, even when the colonial masters were here, when we could do what we wanted. Life was much better than we find now. So, independence is only a matter of somebody feeling we are no longer under a colonial master otherwise, there is nothing to celebrate about Nigeria. All is not well and those who are governing do not in any way wish that things should change for good.
All sorts of things are happening and when you talk about them, nobody cares. Number one is the issue of corruption. Corruption, everybody says, has eaten deep in all fabrics and yet people who are in government are not interested in seeing to it that there is change. The other time, the Senate was probing the power sector and a lot of startling revelations were made which were published in our papers.
After some time, the whole thing died down. I remember it was reported that one contractor who did not even know the site where he was supposed to execute a project was paid fully. You hear the same thing about the pension funds, the same thing about what they are calling subsidy. And even when the people cry out that instead of increasing the cost of fuel, check within, no one cares.
The other time it was the issue of bribe to a member of the House of Representatives and the amount involved was mindboggling. There is also poverty in our country. If the amount which is meant for pensioners is also taken by few individuals, what do you expect will happen? Pensioners, when they are not paid can’t live normal lives, yet nobody cares. So, I have not seen anything to celebrate in Nigeria.
2015 is around the corner and different geo-political zones are laying claim to the presidency. In your opinion, which zone do you think should produce the next president?
I was one of those who made input into the amendment of the constitution when our people went to Constitutional Conference. We said the presidency should rotate among the six zones of Nigeria. But the military Head of State at the time, Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar removed that and said it should rotate between the North and South.
Going by that arrangement, if the present president is from the South, definitely it should rotate back to the North. But if they had not removed that and left it to the six zones, maybe we would be talking about the presidency going to South-South, South East, coming to the North Central and so forth. If that is the situation it should come back to the North. But let me add; I think more of personalities than thinking about South and North. Up till now, I have not seen any other candidate better than Muhammadu Buhari. If Buhari was not rigged out, Nigeria would have been better by now.
But because there are some people who were afraid of Buhari, knowing what they did, and believing that Buhari may come and probe them and they will be punished or they will lose all that they have looted from Nigeria, they all worked against him, rigged the election in favour of Goodluck Jonathan.
But the former governor of Abia State, Orji Kalu has said it point blank that by 2015, the Igbo would vote for an Igbo candidate and that other Nigerians could vote for their own. What do you think this portend for the country?
There is nothing wrong with the Igbo wanting to head this country. I remember I had a clash with somebody who didn’t believe that a Yoruba person should be made president. But it has come to past. Anyone of us can become president of this country, whether Igbo, whether Tiv, Jukun or whatever indigenous tribe.
And it may be that one day, somebody who becomes the president has the qualities that Nigerians want and his tribe may not even be the issue. But, up till now, I believe that it is Buhari who will be president and we will get what we want in Nigeria. I should feel that he should be made one. After that, the presidency can go anywhere.
Do you think the likes of Ibrahim Babangida and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar would ever support his candidacy, giving his hard posture on issues?
All those names you have mentioned mean nothing to me and I am not expecting that they will be the ones to concede. I know that they have been part of the damage done to this country, but I cannot say that they are the ones to concede presidency to Buhari. Nigerians have to do it even, while they are there. We need a revolution in Nigeria to arrive at where we should be. Given the divergent interests of Nigerians, do you think revolution can ever take place in this country?
There is nothing impossible with the Almighty God. Revolution comes in steps. There was one in Ghana, where Jerry Rawlings made a change. The early people were still there when he came in and made the change. Some of these people were killed. There is also another kind of revolution where people are enlightened and they can get up and do what they have to do.
We see on television in other countries, people are adamant, going without food, insisting that certain things are done. You can see that it is revolution also. May be we will get to that stage in Nigeria.
I do remember when Adams Oshiomhole was the president of the Nigeria Labour Congress, when they were about to increase the price of fuel, he asked us to go on strike; that people should sit at home just for one or two days to make the government know that they are not happy with what was planned, but many people refused. Market women and others went about their business. That means we are not yet conscious of what we should do to change this country for good. And that is why you hear people talking about presidency going to the South, North and so much of that instead of the progress of this country.
As a chieftain of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), what is your opinion about the proposed alliance with the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and other opposition parties ahead of 2015?
Before the general elections of 2011, there were some efforts for a merger between the ACN and the CPC. I know as of fact that each time there was going to be a meeting between the two parties, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would sent its own agents to frustrate whatever was to go on. That was what happened. I am a trustee of the CPC. We agreed on merger.
There was a time, a proposal was brought about the name, about the symbol but as at that time, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said it was too late, because there is time within which merger can be made before elections.
INEC had already started printing documents, so it was too late. So, I expected that soon after the litigations, these talks should be renewed and if the people who are involved understand the matter, there is no question of taking this kind of time. There is no need for us to have the number of political parties we have registered in Nigeria, if it were not because of confusion and because other people are benefiting from this kind of arrangement.
In politics, you have political parties based on ideology. We talk of left, right and centre. Then you have on the left those who want to move further left and on the right those who want to go further right. And then there are times when there are issues which bring about political parties. It is not the case in Nigeria. So, it’s pure selfishness. People have some parochial interests. Let me reveal this to you: in 1979, the NPN was a major party with average of 34 per cent of total votes cast in the elections.
The PRP, UPN, GNPP, NPP shared the 66 per cent. That 66 was major but none of them got enough to compete with NPN’s 34 per cent. When Babangida introduced two political parties, the Social Democratic Party (SDP), a little to the left, and the National Republican Convention (NRC), a little to the right, that gave the progressives opportunity of coming together in SDP and that is why SDP was doing the wonders it did. There was no way NRC could come close, because those of us who were even in NPN but who were progressives all moved into SDP.
So, it is to Nigerians’ advantage if these parties merge and because they have been registered to create confusion, when people talk about de-registering them, they are not keen about that, which should have been done since.
What is your assessment of the Jonathan administration so far?
As I have said, a president that would have my acceptance is one who fights corruption and he hasn’t done it. Corruption is going on. No bit has been touched. You hear them talking about there will be no sacred cow and so forth but you are seeing nothing. Who have been prosecuted?
Those who were governors some getting to six, seven years, they said they could not prosecute them because of immunity. They have left the offices over four years, have you seen anything? If it were just for Nigeria, Ibori would be free. What kind of country is this? And it’s under the man who is president, these things are happening. So, I can’t rate him. If I am to rate, it will be poor marks.

Policeman who planned to cook and eat women arrested

A cop was arrested over claims he plotted to kidnap and eat women.
Gilberto Valle, 28, allegedly conspired with an unnamed partner about “kidnapping, cooking and eating body parts of women”.
Police stormed his house in New York after finding emails between Valle and an alleged buyer.
They found the messages and pictures of 100 women and their addresses at his pad.
Valle reportedly wrote in the notes: “[My oven] is big enough to fit one of these girls if I folded their legs.
“I can just show up at her home unannounced, it will not alert her, and I can knock her out, wait until dark and kidnap her right out of her home.
“I was thinking of tying her body onto some kind of apparatus & cook her over a low heat, keep her alive as long as possible.”
Chillingly, he added: “I love that she is asleep right now not having the slightest clue of what we have planned. Her days are numbered. I’m glad you’re on board. She does look tasty doesn’t she?”
The exchanges from July are revealed in a sickening criminal complaint.
It tells how cops also found he had been editing a document on his computer entitled “Abducting and Cooking (victim 1): a Blueprint”.
And it reveals how he is said to have accessed police databases and asked his email chat pal about finding a recipe for chloroform.
Despite his writings, he never went through with his grizzly plans.
FBI acting assistant director Mary E Galligan said in a statement: “The allegations in the complaint really need no description from us. They speak for themselves.
“It would be an understatement merely to say Valle’s own words and actions were shocking.”

Centre of Excellence: Lagos ranked most innovative African city ahead of Cape Town

The rapid transformation of Lagos state in the last five years got the world’s attention over the weekend as Citigroup and Urban Land Institute, ranked her as one of two most innovative cities in Africa.
The two bodies which assess cities worldwide in terms of sustainability and livability, ranked Lagos and Cape Town the most innovative cities in Africa in the list of the world’s 25 most innovative cities.
They also predicted that the Nigerian commercial capital may soon overtake Johannesburg as the continent’s business hub.
According to the ranking, Lagos got the nod of the international bodies for its population, rapid progress and potential as well as positive economic climate and potential for investors while Cape Town was ranked for its green space and massive investment in public transportation, technological research and the environment.
In terms of Economic potential, Apapa Port was ranked for accounting for 80 per cent of Nigeria’s seaport activity while the city itself accounts for about one quarter of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with $33 billion and the population in excess of 18 million making it the most populous city on the list of 25.
Lagos was also included in recognition of the innovative and transformational leadership of the the city’s leadership led by Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN) who, according to the international ranking bodies,“spearheaded the introduction of the Innovative Advisory Council which deals primarily with Science and Technology.”
A statement from Urban Land Institute which said the shortlisted cities “provide new avenues which reflect remarkable, forward-thinking decisions on the part of municipal leadership”, also described Lagos as one of the “biggest” cities in Africa.

Flood victims demand security, as more relief materials arrive

Those displaced by flood in Bomadi Local Government Area of Delta State have cried out to the state government to provide adequate security in order to prevent possible attacks by street urchins.
Thee victims who lauded the governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, for providing a measure of security for them, said they’ve been attacked severally in the past by hoodlums.
Meanwhile, the Bomadi main town camp came alive recently again following the donation of 60 bags of rice and N100,000 and other relief material donated by a Warri-based church, Christ Mercyland Ministry.
The ministry also donated 40 and 50 bags of rice respectively to flood camps at Bomadi Over side and Kpakiama, respectively.
While presenting the items to the Bomadi flood victims, Genera Overseer of the church, Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin, commiserated with those affected by the raging flood. He encouraged them that all hope is not lost
His words: “We thank God for His mercy because He said we should thank Him in everything that is happening to us. We should remember that we did not create ourselves, hence we should always be thankful to Him”.
The cleric who was accompanied by pastors and members of the ministry, however, thanked the federal and state governments not to abandone the victims to their fates.
He said: “We must not forsake the displaced persons because this type of thing could happen to anybody,” Prophet Fufeyin said and prayed that such incident should not happen again.
The man of God prophesied that the flood would end in the first week of November, adding, “This is the word of God.”
Similarly, the church also donated 300 bags of rice and N200, 000 to IDPs in Ekeremor and Sagbama local government areas of Bayelsa State.
Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa, represented by the Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development, Mr. Paul Oyarede, thanked the ministry for the kind gesture.
The commissioner who described the donation as one of the biggest assistance offered the victims, prayed God to bless them in hundred folds.

Okada accidents have killed over 107 persons in the last two years – LASG

Following the recent ban of Commercial  Motorcyclists, popularly known as Okada by the Lagos State from plying major roads , the government has revealed that no fewer than 619 persons had in the last two years lost their lives while scores of others sustained various degrees of  injures in commercial motorcycle accidents across the state.
The government disclosed that the victims’ figure was made available by the state Traffic Management Authority.
A statement by the Special Adviser to Lagos State Governor on Media, Mr. Hakeem Bello, added that  records from the Planning and Research Department of LASTMA showed that out of the number, 107 people died while 512 others were seriously injured as a result of the accidents.
It added that the victims  in the two years include 71 males  and 36 females.
The statement read in part, “Details of the accidents between January 2011 and October 2012 further revealed that a total of 442 commercial motorcycles, popularly called okada, were involved in accidents across the state during the period out of which 271 occurred in 2011 while 171 occurred in 2012.
“Also according to the records, in 2011 alone, 47 were killed and 98 others sustained serious injuries while from January 2012 to date 63 people have been killed while 59 others sustained serious injuries.”

Chris Ihidero Unedited: How Old Would We Be In Heaven?

As you must be aware by now, I visit heaven quite regularly. Living in Nigeria makes it necessary to keep in constant touch with the divine, lest one goes bonkers trying to make sense of all the madness that goes on here on a daily basis.
I couldn’t make it to heaven this week due to the fuel scarcity and I didn’t think it was right to go to heaven in a plane flown with stolen fuel, so I decided to give the almighty a call instead and get something that has been troubling me for a while off my chest…
Hello Sir …yes sir good morning. I am very fine sir, no problems at all. I am so sorry I can’t make it to Heaven this week sir. There’s fuel scarcity again and I can’t get a flight to bring me…no sir, the planes are alright, as they tend to be for international flights. Who? Oh she’s fine sir, running a riot round my heart with her chicken legs…ah, no sir, I’m not grinning like a 15yr-old sir! What? Me, mushy-mushy? Impossible! You know I don’t do all this emotional stuff well…oh, please stop teasing sir! You can like to be pulling someone’s leg sef. My mumu button? It’s a lie jor, she doesn’t know how to press any button. Sebi it’s because I promised you I will be a good man, if not, I would have shown her pepper by now! You said what, sir? Haba, don’t do that o…you keep threatening me with this Angel Michael dude; I thought we agreed not to bring terrorists to civil discussions? That flaming sword business is not a joking something o!
That reminds me. I need you to answer a question quickly sir.
Sir…hello…hello, are you there? Okay, yes sir, I can hear you clearly. I need to know, sir, in Heaven, how old would I be? What, you don’t understand? I thought the question was quite simple. Let me break it down: Suppose I die at age 100, and, my handiwork and thy mercies willing, I resurrect in heaven, how old would I be? Simply put; in Heaven, what age would I be? Why is that important? Sir, it is very important o. I need to understand this Heaven business clearly. If, allegedly, one is supposed to wake up in Heaven after a life dedicated to the common good and other benevolent entanglements and one looks forward to a bountiful harvest, it should not be irrelevant to know how old one would be in the location of his spoils. Yes sir, I’m listening…what, say that again sir…my questions are irrelevant? I think not! I guess you don’t know what it feels like to work hard towards this heaven business, and if I am going to wake up as a senile old man then I have problems with the whole set up!
What shall it profit a man to work hard at salvation on earth only to wake up in Heaven with weak knees, arthritic knuckles, varicose veins, a weakened bladder, wrinkled and deflated scrotum, shrunken penis and other infirmities and indignities? Ehn, what sir? Not only would I be useless to surplus seraphs, I would also have to painfully munch sumptuous delicacies with my gums! No way! Unless I appear in Heaven in my pristine fine-boy-no-pimples-omodudu4ever-mogbonofelifeli-I’m-on-fire-kini-big-deal state, we might need to renegotiate this heaven business fast. There’s no way I’m losing at both ends. No freaking way! Somewhere between my dying (hopefully at 100) and reappearance in heaven, a transformation must occur where I return to my most marketable, mint condition o!
So sorry sir…I apologise for my language. But I’m serious o. I need to confirm before further common good instalments: in heaven, what would my age be? Hello…hello sir…look don’t cut the line and blame the network o, you must answer this question today, no escapist tactics!
Hello, hello…damn, I’ve run out of credit! This is not the end of this matter o. I shall surely be back. We must spell out this heaven business clearly. Man shall not live by promises alone!
And while we’re at it, sir: which one is the real heaven sef? Your people are presenting all types of heaven to us o…will we really be singing homilies all day and every day?  Are there really 70 virgins for those that kill in your name? Purgatory nko? Will I be able to visit my friends there? Yes o, I want to do ntoi to them! LOL! Me sha, I want the one with those fresh apples and people riding on the backs of lions, surrounded by drop-dead gorgeous seraphs! Choi!
