Declare Violator Of Interstate Movement Terrorists, Probe Amosun's Abandoned Projects - Ogun LP Advises Governor Abiodun

The Labour Party in Ogun state has advised Governor Prince Dapo Abiodun to declare violators of the interstate movement and night curfew as terrorists.

According to the press statement released by Comrade Abayomi Arabambi, Labour Party Ogun State Chairman, "In arresting the spread of COVID - 19 in Ogun  State,It is highly essential that the Government of Ogun State must be commended very strongly for her  very visible performance at arresting further spread of Covid - 19. 

We , in Ogun State LP , say a sincere  "WELL DONE" and a big "THANK YOU" to the State Governor.

He said, True enough Governor Abiodun have demonstrated  beyond doubt that he is really conscious of the fact that he is elected to make decisions including ones that are hard.

"You have openly demonstrated a great capacity in trying to reduce the spread of the virus in Ogun State. And it is also true that a large number of the citizens in the State are unintelligently trying at most times to be uncooperative with the your efforts threatening all your efforts with maybe ,  probably unintended negative consequences." said Arabambi 

"Not only the indigenous citizens but even the various non - native residents who are readily receiving large number of people illegally from their original States during this pandemic."

"Besides , the people who are encouraged to come into the State by the kins who have been long resident in the State there are some large numbers of immigrants from other States , more so and particularly from the North of the Country who illegally troupe into the State with an undeniable help from the corrupt security officers who are supposed to secure the State against such acts."

"We in Ogun LP , here strongly suggest that such illegal entries into the State should be seen as acts of TERRORISM and TREASONABLE FELONY . Mostly , they have chosen Ogere in Ikenne LG area of the State as the main route through where they  spread into the State."

"In our considered opinion , the time is now for the State to cause a bill to be enacted by the State house of Assembly that will immediately  criminalise the act of smuggling oneself into the State during this pandemic . The law should make it an act of terrorism  and treasonable felony during this Inter - State border closure and lockdown for any person or persons to smuggle himself or be smuggled by another into Ogun State."

"This is a deliberate act of coup-detat aims at compromising the health of the whole Citizens of Ogun State by probably importing covid- 19 intentionally or by implication.

It is not in doubt that the negativities such as identified here can go a long way to undo all that the Government has done so far in a very short number of days."

Arabambi also enjoined Governor Abiodun  to strictly and heavily visit the full weight of the law on anyone who flouts the official order of  Nose covering in the public and the other official directives.

In conclusion , he suggested that the Government should continues the provision of the palliatives for the vulnerable and the old in the society. 

Again, the Government should from here on ensure that all health experts' directives are strongly enforced including the assemblages in banking halls and the ATM points across the State.

But the most and extremely needful urgent step is for the Government to promote a bill in the House of Assembly to criminalise illegal entries into the State immediately.

He congratulated the Governor and his Government on the successfully successful performance in Government since about one year now. 

"We in LP commend and salute the Governor as he approaches one year in office.

Of course , the Governor should be very comfortable over his successes in Government. In his approach to the celebration of his one year in office , the Leadership and members of Ogun State LP congratulate the Governor for his highly delightful performance in office."

However , it is meet to draw the attention of the Governor to some areas that still need much attention. Areas like the Education, developments of infrastructures , the high rate of frightening unemployment and the need to verify every level of awarded contracts by the APC adminisration of Sen Ibikunle Amosun from.2011 to 2019 may to suspected fraudulent cronies and Contractors on roads construction , Mitros Specialist hospitals that have not been completed according to the terms of contract while 90% to 100% payments have been effected. Every inch of the 23 model schools awarded to ghost contractors with no visible address at a combined cost of #54billion as 21 of them are now serving as fields of habitation for lunatics and wild animals should be thoroughly looked into very quickly and if needed , it could be accorded the status of attracting  a Judicial Panel of inquiry that will cause all books to be opened while the past commissioners involved must be held accountable and charge to court for comprise and willing accessories to fraud with the erring contractors.
