The federation account allocation committee (FAAC) says it distributed the sum of N1.96 trillion in December to the federal government, states, and local government councils.

According to NAN, details of the revenue distribution were contained in a communiqué from FAAC issued by Bawa Mokwa, the director of press and public relations at the office of the accountant-general of the federation.

AKANBI DISTRICT: THE DANGER OF SILENCE & THE NEED TO START NOW

To the Good People of Akanbi District, specifically my people in Akanbi Ward V and Akanbi district,
I am putting this message out today not just as a youth of this soil, but as a concerned stakeholder who refuses to see our district take the back seat again.

We are approaching a critical time in the political calendar.

While the official whistle for the State House of Assembly elections has not been blown, the game has already started. But looking around Akanbi District today, I see a dangerous silence. We are standing idle while our neighbors are moving.

1. To the Aspirants: The "Money Politics" Era is Fading
If you are nursing the ambition to represent Ilorin South at the State House of Assembly, and you are waiting to gather "millions" before you show your face, you are making a mistake.

Money is good, but presence is better.

Start Now: Go to the grassroots.

Visit the elders in akanbi district.

Sit with the youth in the wards.

Let them know your face and your character before you ask for their votes.

Build Trust: If you come out six months to the election, people will see you as an opportunist.

If you come out now, even without money, people will see you as a serious leader who cares.

2. A Challenge from Other Districts
Look at our neighboring districts in Ilorin South.
They are not sleeping.

Their sons and daughters are already holding consultations, forming alliances, and repairing community boreholes.

They are positioning themselves so that when the time comes, the party leaders will have no choice but to pick them.

Meanwhile, Akanbi District is quiet.

If we don't "make haste while the sun shines," we will be forced to support candidates from other districts who started early. We must not be second-class citizens in our own Local Government.

3. To the Youths of Akanbi district
Let us stop worshipping money.

Let us start identifying credible people among us—people with intellect, capacity, and fear of God—and encourage them to run.

If we identify them now, we can sell them to the world.

Conclusion

The sun is shining right now. This is the time to dry our hay.

Anyone planning to contest should step into the arena immediately.

We want to know you, we want to test you, and we want to trust you.

Don’t wait until it is raining. Move now.

Dear people of integrity & committed PDP members -

LET'S D TRUTH BE TOLD AS WE( PDP) HAVE NOT LEARN LESSON FROM FAILURE OF 2019 & 2023 GENERAL ELECTIONS, TAKING ILORIN SOUTH LGA AS A CASE STUDY.Based on anticident of our Distinguished leader Sen. Dr Bukola Saraki,the cloud was cleared & bright for PDP to win 2023 electn in d local govt with wide margin but it is a bitter truth to disclose that some electorates & some aggrieved party members voted against Ali Ahmad (DG),Atolagbe Alege (Chief adviser to DG)& Party chr Adamu Oloyin during 2023 election.People see them as oppressor of highest order, working against d principle of fairness, justice & equity in d party.It is an established fact that the Nomination & cangaroo election of Oloyin as party chr sponsored by Ali & Atolagbe is like 'he who pay d piper dictates d tune'These people have been wagging war against the leadership & members of Akanbi District Elders forum becos d forum advised them at d eve of 2023 election to abide by d principle of fairness, justice & equity in distribution of dividend of democracy & political appt among d people of BF District & AK district that formed ILORIN SOUTH LGA for d posterity of d party.It is no longer a news that Akanbi District Elders forum is d forum fighting for d course of pples of AK district to curb all sorts of marginalization subjected to, from d hand of some Cabals in d party.It is our stand not to compromise with any individual or group to undermine d progress of people of AK district or kill d District politically.We shall not relent on our efforts to fight for justice, fairness & equity to witness rapid devt in our District despite all odds.See d irony of life, the leadership & members who are fighting against marginalization have so far been denied of all sorts of dividend of democracy while those in support of d existing marginalization are gaining more dividend of democracy in d hand of so call Cabals.It may interest some committed pary members & people of integrity to note with concern that d LGA consist of AK district & Bf District only.Ak District with 163 poll Unit out of 275 & voting capacity of about 75% but seriously marginalized in term of dividend of democracy & political appt while BF District with 112 pol unit & voting capacity of about 25% but always with benefits of about 90%.The Forum identified about 492 different Jobs/Appts at all levels during our meeting with our Distinguished leader on sun 11th July 2022 of which only 4 are From AK district.The leader being a man of God was convinced of the marginalization of highest order & directed us to nominate 2 rep from AK district to him at great hall who will always fight for our right to curb further marginalization generally . After our meeting with d leader,d 3 mentioned cabal said Capital NO to leader's directive for us to nominate 2 rep to him & the said Capital NO stands todate .Our nomination letter remains under d carpet todate too.Can u imagin somebody appointed as DG of opposition party for d purpose of winning election but end up in following his chief adviser (Alege) in creating & fueling factions & crisis in his own LGA & wagging war against d members of AK district elders forum.No amount of victimization & frustration can discourage us from fighting for d course of our people of AK district & ILORIN SOUTH in general.Some ungodly & wicked, devilish & devil's advocate always term our genuine complains to petitions just to keep us silent but struggle continue this time around .Are they not d one who applied for d petitions If they term our genuine complains to petitions & If we are forced to such an action our next move may be press conference/ release where details complains would be on air for d whole world to judge d situation we meet our self.They did d worst during this 2023 Eid-el Kabir celebration which led to our reaction today,when d leader invited 30 pples from each of d five LGA in d Emirate, only 6 were invited from AK district with d population of about 75% voting capacity & highest P U excluding d leadership of d forum while 24 pples were picked from BF District with population of about 25% voting capacity Only. Is it a crime to advise d party chr & Ali Ahmad not to zone both house of rep,state house of Assembly & all d 3 state exco & other top appts to BF District only for us to win 2023 election which we later lost?Afterall, being a powerful cabal Ali Ahmad disagreed with our advise & left Akanbi District with Zero position .Is zoning no longer in LORIN south PDP constitution like other LGA?why are u people still wagging war against us.Don't u know that you will all account for all these on d day of Judgement?We really understand that ILORIN south LGA under d PDP chr Alh Adamu Oloyin is d LGA where there is no respect for d principle of fairness, justice & equity & one must not speak d truth,if you do,u are already in problem & you will be denied of all sorts of dividend of democracy in d party.The record & evidence to defend this is fully available.It is no longer a news that Adamu Oloyin was sponsored to become d party chr by both Ali Ahmad & Atolagbe Alege for them to grip d whole LGA in to ransom,not minding his level of education . Well,these people have forced & frustrated so many party members out to another party.IS POLITICS NO LONGER A GAME OF NUMBERS?Our Distinguished leader should pls caution d trio to stop frustrating committed party members out of our party because of selfish interest.We sincerely give KUDOS to people like Hon BF Ishola,Alfa Pupa Dembo & Bilikis Oniyangi who are working round d clock to sanitize d system to establish d principle of fairness justice & equity in our local govt.We sincerely advise d leader to hand over ILORIN SOUTH LGA to these last three people mentioned to sanitize the rotten system in d local govt.And work with d leadership of d two District without centiment.Thanks. From Akanbi District Elders forum,ILORIN south LGA
