MY ONDO STATE I KNOW :
By : Sam Olorunfemi Jnr
Ahead of the forthcoming governorship election in Ondo State. The clamour in ondo state currently now is neither for the party nor the personality of the aspirants unlike previous elections in the state. Political analysts have tagged this one as different. The mantras on many lips now are :
"Akoko agenda"
"Owo agenda"
"Akure agenda"
"Ilaje agenda"
Some Breakdown
1.) Late Chief Adekunle Ajasin from Owo ( North ) 1979 - 1983
2.) Late Chief Adebayo Adefarati from Akungba Akoko ( North ) 1999 - 2003
3.) Late Dr. Olusegun Agagu from Iju Odo (South ) 2003 - 2009
4.) Dr. Olusegun Mimiko from Ondo ( Central ) 2009 - till date
ACHIEVEMENTS ACCORDINGLY
Ajasin = Rufus Giwa Poly ( RUGIPO ) sited in Owo
Adefarati = Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko ( AAUA ) sited in Akungba Akoko
Agagu = Ondo State University of Science & Technology ( OSUSTECH ) sited in Okitipupa
Mimiko = Mother & Child Hospital, Mega Schools, Trauma Centre, Gani Diagnostic Center & University of Medical Science ( UNIMED ) sited in Ondo.
Could these be the reason people are now clamouring for our turn "agenda" ?
