ONDO NORTH YOUTH ALLIANCE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SENATOR JIDE IPINSAGBA; GIVE US A GIFT OF ACCOUNTABILITY ON THE 4.5 BILLION NAIRA CONSTITUENCY PROJECT INHERITED FROM 2023 BUDGET.
Teach us to number our days that we may apply Wisdom unto it…
It is with gratitude to the Almighty God that we celebrate the birthday of Senator Olajide Ipinsagba. We, therefore, join all well wishers across the globe to celebrate his special day.
We are, however, saddened by the ripple effect of failed project implementation that has continued to keep our people in a perilous state.
It is important as we celebrate the birthday of the senator that our people should be celebrating, but obviously, the common man seeks solace only in our demand for accountability. The forgotten songs of heroes sang by those strangled by the lack of provision of the dividends of democracy by our distinguished senator. Those who have been further placed in penury by the actions of elected leaders, who rather than carry out their basic responsibility seeks weaponization of poverty.
Our concerns trickle down and remind us of the “Ambassadors of Poverty.” One can affirm the bitter Scenario we find ourselves reflecting on this poem :
“Ambassadors of poverty are
The corrupt masters of the economy
With their head abroad
And anus at home
Patriots in reverse order
Determined merchants of loots
Who boost the economy of their colonial order
To impoverish brothers and sisters at home”.
As the apex youth leadership of Ondo North, we have one gift and resolute resolve for our senator; that ours is to help in keeping campaign promises and aid accountability to the people. Those whom the power genuinely resides with who have now been suppressed and oppressed with their common wealth.
We are appealing to the distinguished senator to tell us why he only spent 500 million on constituency project out of 4.5 Billion naira. The question is where is our 4 Billion Naira unaccounted for by the senator?
We challenge the senator to a public debate, on this pressing issue.
For the avoidance of doubt; we wish to site one out of many projects, the very distinguished senator may wish to tell the world how he went about it:
“30th, May 2023
through the
Nigerian building and road research institute – lagos awarded a contract to Degbane engineering limited at the cost of
N43,091,037.12
Being payment for the construction of the development of skill centre in Owo and Akoko, Ondo North senatorial district, Ondo State as per brri/ 1029/s.181/1/ pg 405

Distinguished senator “Pastor” Jide Ipinsagba has been blessed tremendously by God, and should not disappoint God and humanity when the little meant for his people and common man under his watch disappears.
