DON’T HAVE ANY DEALING WITH KENNETH UDEZE, ACTION ALLIANCE WARNS POLITICIANS

National chairman of the Action Alliance (AA), Hon Adekunle Rufai Omoaje has warned members of the public not to be decieved by the antics of some disgruntled elements impersonating as leaders of the party in order to defraud unsuspecting members of the public.

Specifically, the AA national chairman cautioned the people, especially politicians against relating with Mr Kenneth Udeze who he said he’s currently under expulsion for allegations bothering on fraud and anti party activities.

Omoaje said Udeze who is still impersonating as the National chairman of the party has been expelled along side James Vernibe and othera and therefore warned members of the public not to have any dealing with them.

He alleged that Udeze and his co-travellers have not stopped decieving unsuspecting politicians, especially those seeking political offices and also defrauding them.

He declared that Udeze and Vernibe are still under expulsion and have no moral or legal right to represent the party in any capacity.

Also, Omoaje raised the alarm over alleged fraud recently perpetrated by Udeze when he teased a politician to obtain the AA’s governorship nomination form in Anambra State.

He alleged that Udeze defrauded one Nnamdi Nwawuo who is a governorship aspirant of the party in Anambra State to the tune of millions.

He therefore called on security agencies to curb the excesses of Udeze and his cohorts, just as he warned members of the party to steer clear of the Udeze who he described as a drowning politician who is hell-bent at polarizing the AA.

The AA national chairman also called on intending contestants in Anambra and other states to deal with only authentic members of the AA and also seek clarification on the authentic leadership of the party from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Besides, he condemned the illegal office recently opened by Udeze in Abakaliki, headquarters of Ebonyi State, saying it was a ploy to further decieve unsuspecting members of the public, especially the people of the state

WORLD PRESS FREEDOM DAY: OSUN NUJ DEMANDS DECENT WAGE FOR MEDIA PROFESSIONALS.

As the world marks world press freedom day, government has been urged to create enabling environment for media professionals to practice their trades.

In a statement by the chairman of Nigeria Union of journalists, Osun State Council, Comrade Wasiu Ajadosu and secretary, Bukola Elufadeju said media professionals deserved a decent life through a special wage, owing to their roles in nation building.

The statement decried the attitude of some media owners to the welfare of their staffs especially non-payment of salaries and other benefits to media professionals while some are paying ridiculous amount to their workers.

It posited that media professionals are playing important roles in the entrenchment of democracy and its sustainability aside from being the key actors in the struggle for democratic system in the country, hence the need for their special treatment in the country.

It hinted that many journalists had been killed while other risked their lives daily in the task of sustaining the unity of the nation and project the country for national growth and development.

The statement noted that the theme of this year celebration “information as a public good” attested to the significance of information to human existence, survival and its place in promotion of public good as well as good governance.

It explained that the theme also, underlines the indisputable importance of verified and reliable information as it calls attention to the essential role of free and professional journalists in producing and disseminating information by tackling misinformation and other harmful content.

The statement called on public officers to always give media professionals access to information saying despite the freedom of information act, some public officers are still treating some information as classified and confidential.

It maintained that media as the fourth estate of the realm must be seen as formidable partner in the task of nation building.

World Press Freedom Day, which was declared by general Assembly of the united nation in 1993, provides an avenue to pay tribute to media professionals who risked or lost their lives in the line of duty.

NO EXTORTION IN OSUN POLY, SAYS MANAGEMENT

Management of Osun State Polytechnic Iree has said that there is no ‘Extortion’ of any kind in the institution.

Reacting to a story published in an Online Blog entitled ” Ospoly Students Cry Out Over Extortion By Management ” , the Registrar of the Institution, Mr. Busari Salawu said the publication is insidious and malicious.

The Registrar stated that the Institution has not increased its tuition fees in the last six years in spite of the prevailing economic realities , while other institutions across the country are increasing theirs almost on a yearly basis to reflect the economic reality of the country.

On the alleged increment of the Matriculation Fee from One Thousand Naira to Two Thousand Five Hundred, the Registrar declared that “the polytechnic is just commencing a new Academic Session and the date of the Matriculation has not been fixed. We have not announced any date and the fees that would be paid, if there’s going to be any increment, all stakeholders in the Institution, including the Students Union and other bodies would be carried along”, the Registrar enthused.

Mr. Salawu noted that the Institution has been charging a sum of One Thousand Naira only as Matriculation fee for the past one decade, while other institutions charge between Five and Ten Thousand Naira.

He, therefore, admonished all students to ignore rumour mongers and face their studies, while assuring them that in the tradition of the institution, they would be consulted if there would be any need for change of the matriculation fee.

INSECURITY: OYINLOLA IDENTIFIES TRUE FEDERALISM AS PANACEA

Former Osun State, Governor, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola has canvassed the amendment of the nation’s constitution to pave the way for true federalism.

Prince Oyinlola stated this in Osogbo at the maiden edition of Guest Platform, a quarterly programme of the Osun State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists.

The former governor said the current constitution as being operated could not guarantee security of citizens and economic development of the country.

He described the country’s security situation as appalling so much that the government was lost in thought on how to proffer solution to it.

Also speaking, the guest speaker who is also a former Vice Chancellor of Adekunle Ajasin Universitiy, Akungba-akoko, Professor Femi Mimiko said it was obvious that the country was overwhelmed by myriads of security challenges and there was no will power by the government to tackle it

Professor Mimiko noted that there was lack of trust between the government and the governed

In a remark,Orangun of Oke-ila, Oba Adedokun Abolarin called for urgent solution to the security challenges to sustain the nation’s unity in diversity.

In his welcome address, the chairman,Nigeria Union of Journalists, Osun State Council, Comrade Wasiu Ajadosu, said the theme of the lecture “Appraisal of State Security in Nigeria, yesterday, today and tomorrow; the way forward” was borne out of concern of journalists towards emplacing a secured Nigeria.
