One Naijerians, one Fee-Di-Fee, Fower to ze fiful .
Of particular interest in one of the newspapers I was reading is the story of a chieftain of the Action Congress party.
This is the excerpts of the story:-
Hon. Babatunde Sowole Olubajo a.k.a. AC Ghana, who stormed P.M.News yesterday to protest the list of commissioners and special advisers released by Governor Fashola and the AC leadership. he expressed dissatisfaction with the list and called on the former governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to do something quickly about it.Olubajo, in tears, told P.M.News: “They have finished me. Tinubu and others, I mean Tunde Balogun and Fashola promised me that they would give me appointment and that I should go and work for Fashola.“I mortgaged my house at Ejigbo to borrow N6.5 million from Alhaji Samodi in Mushin to work for Fashola to become governor. Now, look at what they have done to me. They have abandoned me and appointed those who did not work for the party as commissioners and special advisers.“When I met Tinubu shortly before the election, he called Tunde Balogun, then Commissioner for Home Affairs, and asked him to talk to me. Balogun asked me to go and raise money to work for Fashola and that the party will not forget me when they are making appointments. I mortgaged my house and borrowed money and I worked very well for Fashola to become governor. Now, they have forgotten me.“On August 3 my mortgage agreement will expire and my house would be sold to recover the money I borrowed. My children and I will have no place to lay our heads; all because of Fashola. “I have been selling my cars to pay the mortgage but I have not been able to complete it. See, the dilemma I am in now. They have appointed commissioners and left me out.“Tinubu has disappointed me for the second time. Why did he promise me when he knew he can’t fulfil the promise? When I wanted to leave, he begged me and asked Tunde Balogun to talk to me. See me now. “They should please assist me to pay my mortgage loan, at least, to prevent my house from being sold,” the distraught AC chieftain from Oshodi-Isolo cried out.
