ADOGBA CENTRAL MOSQUE: MATTERS ARISING

Image
  By Adejare Ibrahim The Adogba Central Mosque, which the Oyo State Government demolished, had tons of history attached to it. Those who knew what transpired at that time would confirm what I am writing here. This story, I'm very sure, no one has ever told Governor Seyi Makinde. At the initial stage, the Adogba Central Mosque was built by Haramain Islamic Foundation. Haramain, a Saudi-based humanitarian organisation, in those days, embarked on many lofty programmes, targeted at the poor and less privileged. All these happened in the early and late 90s. One of the cardinal programmes of Haramain was building of central mosques across some major towns in Yorubland. Oyo, Ibadan and some towns were the beneficiaries.

The group particularly wondered why individuals, whom it described as opportunistic politician...

Accord, Oyo central senatorial candidate in the recently held Presidential and National assembly election in Oyo state, Engr. Faozey Oladotun Nurudeen, has described as baseless, rumors making the rounds that he has defected to the opposition All Progressives Congress-APC in the state. Engr. Faozey Oladotun Nurudeen who polled a total of 41,743 votes in the keenly contested election, in a message personally signed by him said, he has put the election behind him as a firm believer in the tenets, and frowned at the misleading information been peddled around by members of the APC in the state. He said, as a refined politician with a strong Grassroot support base and with a complete sense of decency, he will not hide behind a finger if after due consultation with his followers, he wants to move to any other political party. He declared that he is a member of Accord and a firm believer in the Programmes and ideas of the party. While warning the faceless group of transactional politicians, w...
