We must give it to President Muhammadu Buhari for recognizing that the entire integrity of Nigeria was battered by the annulment of June 12 #MeetOgbeniNo election including the one that brought me to power can be mentioned in the same breath as the June 12, 1993 elections. For the realization and acceptance of fault as a nation and in hopes for forgiveness, we must commend the President #MeetOgbeni
To have ignored pressure and we cannot deny that there was pressure for the continued denial of June 12. We must praise the president for his resolve and leadership #MeetOgbeni
If those who violated our mandate have their pictures hanging on the hall of fame, I see no reason the same honor can’t be bestowed on the Late MKO Abiola. He should be granted the privileges of the office denied him against the will of millions of Nigerians #MeetOgbeni
There is no absolutism in life. Everything is relative. 33 states in this country were distressed when the APC took power at the center. If we had an irresponsible government at the center, Nigeria would have been in absolute collapse. #MeetOgbeni
But as humans, we must complain and demand for better and there is absolutely nothing wrong in that. We cannot dent that there are challenges particularly in the area of security. The government must do more in that area #MeetOgbeni
The federal government has done well considering where we are coming from #MeetOgbeni
Whenever there are interests, you must expect rivalry and competition.
The issue therefore is how we manage this issues and I think we are doing well. #MeetOgbeni
I rose against the last administration because of its anti-people policies that sought to enrich a microscopic few at the expense of a larger proportion of the people. #MeetOgbeni
I am committed advocate for the reduction if not elimination of the unequal sharing for scare resources. #MeetOgbeni
I am a leftist and I have no apology for that #MeetOgbeni
My political interest is to reduce the inequality in the way of human life. This has been my vision since my political consciousness from age 9 in Primary 3. #MeetOgbeni
t is true that we are not paying a section of the workforce. This section includes my deputy and all other political appointees and I mean all with any exceptions. #meetOgbeni
We do not owe anyone on grade level 1-7 a dime in salaries. Workers on grade level 8-10 have been receiving 75% of their salaries.
Only workers of grade level 12-17 earn half of what is due to them. #MeetOgbeni
With due respect to our civil servants, no responsible government should employ more than 1% of the state’s population. How then you you justify that the state commits 80% of its resources to service 1% of the population. #MeetOgbeni
We have been blessed with the most committed civil service in the country. Their sacrifices to help the government continue to run cannot be overemphasized. #MeetOgbeni
What we didn’t want to do was to downsize the workforce. We took the most human approach which is to share whatever we have according. #meetOgbeni
We are not insensitive to the struggles of our workers. We are simply living through your current realities as a state #meetOgbeni
Notice that whenever we get funds such as the Paris refund, we committed it wholly to the payment of salaries and clearance of arrears. #MeetOgbeni
Human Capital Development is what I can say I am proud of. Our greatest achievement is the implantation of the Omoluabi Ethos we have instituted in our state. That is our greatest joy. #MeetOgbeni
Human capital development through Omoluabi philosophy is the greatest programme our government has initiated #MeetOgbeni
I have a huge and unusual appreciation for women. Men are most often times not as reliable as women. If a woman is with you, you would know #MeetOgbeni
Women are an ally with which women are fought and won. As a politician, the true reflection of your popularity can the measured by how women and children receive you #MeetOgbeni
I have no regrets working with women. They are diligent and committed. My deputy has been a reliable ally and I cannot dream of having a better deputy. #MeetOgbeni
I see strong efforts by women to outperformed their male counterpart in any assignment given to them #MeetOgbeni
Education is about creating a person who appreciates himself and why he exists as a being, but not for himself alone, but for the usefulness of the society, not one who feels education is useful for shortchanging the society #MeetOgbeni
Education to us is about the development of the new persona who appreciates himself and understands why he is a being not for himself but for the society. #MeetOgbeni
The state’s pass rate performance in WAEC is now 45.41% from 6.86% at the inception of this government #MeetOgbeni
The Opon Imo is not just an e-tablet, it is a window to the world in the hands of these school children #MeetOgbeni
My greatest challenge in government is funds #MeetOgbeni
Accordingly 2017 Oxford ranking, Osun is second only to Lagos on the poverty rates in the country. #MeetOgbeni
State of Osun has the 2nd lowest unemployment rate in the country. #MeetOgbeni
I have a succession plan and I will work hard at it within the limits for what God allows. I am passionate about a worthy successor. #VisitOsun
I am saying it again, I am not leaving Osun after the expiration of my tenure. #VisitOsun
There is no such thing as imposition in the the coming elections. Democracy is about the people. It is not about the individual. It is all about what the people wants. I rest my case #VisitOsun
Our people at the National Assembly have been extremely supportive of our vision as a State. #VisitOsun
My wife has been complaining that I have been spending too much time with Governance, What I know now is that when I leave office, I want to return to my Wife. #VisitOsun
I have a high value for the Yoruba culture, this is why I would most often times be found in an African attire #VisitOsun
We must as a matter of necessity teach our children how to speak our language. This is key #VisitOsun
We are currently working on producing Yoruba alphabet #VisitOsun
