The Ondo State Governor, Olusegun Mimiko, has described the ‘change’ slogan by the All Progressives Congress as a hoax, adding that the party is an object of propaganda.
He, however, described President Goodluck Jonathan as a progressive.
Mimiko said this while inaugurating a primary school as part of activities commemorating his 6th anniversary as the governor of the state on Friday in Akure.
He said he was inspired by President Goodluck Jonathan.
Mimiko, in a statement on Friday, said President Jonathan, like Ondo State, had demonstrated that he is a progressive, adding that “building a mega school for the Ondo State government is making an ideological statement.”
He said, “The mega school concept of our government is about re-engineering education in the state with emphasis on Information and Communications Technology. It is an initiative which is about polity, equity and real progressivism, which is beyond the suffocating propaganda being dished out by agents of nebulous change in the country.
“The same progressivism drive is behind the decision of President Jonathan’s establishment of Almajiri schools in the North. What is being experienced in the state is the real change and just like what President Jonathan is doing at the federal level.
“This is different from those who lack integrity but (are) calling for change which they can’t give. You have contested presidential election four times and you call yourself a poor man; what kind of lie is that? Is that what will bring change?”
He said the country would do better under President Jonathan because he had demonstrated that he meant well for the country “unlike those who are after power to shore up their investment base.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Should we continue in mediocrity? Silence may help preserve reputation
ReplyDeleteMimiko, no doubt you represent all that is bad. A whole lot of people in Ondo State changed their minds and will not vote for the president because of your presence in pdp. In six years you destroyed the economy of the state. You squandered about #38b left by the late gov. Olusegun Agagu and ran the state to debt. Civil servants are not paid, no meaningful developmental projects, the state is at stand still. The only time we had it so bad was during the regime of the Lagos boy, Bode George. I'm sure you are fighting the battle of your life because your types will end in jail when the change is here.
ReplyDeleteThey call for CHANGE with the same set of people. All of them are the same. We will gather all of you in one place and kill you, then we can have the CHANGE.
