A few weeks back the whole of Ogbomosho wasalive as people were celebrating the fact that the new governorm of oyo state is from the town.
Ogbomosho is one of the biggest culturally sound towns in Oyo state...,infact it is believed that the town is right after Ibadan (the largest city in Nigeria) in terms of development.
The way the people ofthe town reactedto Governor Akala's behaviour in the Ladoja Adedibu (the Oyo state Godfather) saga was quite interesting. Alot of the the town's people were willing to ignore their principle for the guy and now that he is a governor....the story is begining to bore the people whowereready to defend 'their child' though his part in the problems of the state is obvious
Everyone is running back to the religious circle because strange happenings are now occuring....salaries of workers are tobe slashed to 50% of their original salary and somany unions have gone on strike.
The recent occurrence of armedrobbery attack is a shocking event as theconfidencethe 'GUY' had was astounding. Banks were attacked, policitians killedm and innocent drivers also.
The feeling ofgooing back to God has returned...,l just wondered if we allthought about God when we werebreaking our principle for what l call a "Do mo wa syndrome" ( l wrote about it a few days back but as usual in Ogbomosho there was no light because rain felland hence no access to internet facility'.
Simple put,l would say the syndrome makes us cover the sins of our 'children' and expose that of other.
Now only God can save...and lpray he hears cause we definately didn't consult him on alot of things in this country called Nigeria.
Would this government live up to expectations l am sceptical' lfeel the last government is on annual leave! hmmmm..,l hope l am wrong...but then that is my pesonalopinion.
The air does not just feel right....
Would things change?
Big question
