Good one from Ekiti but seriously this guy is a real pull down compared to Fayemi.These days, Ekiti just appears to me like that small state with nothing .no resources,no proper leadership,can't stay on its own.Sometimes I wonder what was going on their minds when they voted for the current guy. Anyway, we're hopeful.

Fayose Has Repositioned Education in Ekiti, Says Aide
…As Ekiti leapfrogs from 35th to 11th position THE effort by Governor Ayodele Fayose to re-position education in Ekiti State is already yielding results, Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to Governor Fayose, Mr. Idowu Adelusi has said. The CPS made this assertion as Ekiti students’ performance in last year’s West African Examinations Council (WAEC) improved with the state clinching the 11th position out of the 36 states of the federation. Disclosing that 37 per cent of the candidates had no fewer than five credit passes including English Language and Mathematics, Adelusi said that the state presented a total of 13,690 candidates for the public examinations taken by final year secondary school students in English-speaking countries in West Africa. Speaking in an interview in Ado-Ekiti yesterday, Adelusi expressed pleasure that the efforts of the Fayose administration in the sector were yielding positive results, saying the jump from 35th position to the 11th, a little over a year after the assumption of office by the governor was remarkable. Said he: “There is no doubt that Governor Ayodele Fayose is a lover of education. He was the first to organise Education Summit in the state in 2003 that moved the state to seventh position in WAEC examinations in the nation and number one in the South West. He came again and boosted teachers’ morale by celebrating them during their annual day. “Also, the state government has paid the sum of N411.7m to 5,130 teachers as core subjects and rural allowances to teachers. This is to motivate teachers handling core subjects and those in rural and far-flung schools that are difficult to staff. The state is doing this to motivate the teachers and not to deny students in rural schools quality education,” he said. sunnewsonline.com/new/fayose-has-repositioned-education-in-ekiti-says-aide/

In fact, it is hard to believe that there is anything any governor can do in the space of a single year that would make such a dramatic difference. A more likely explanation for the improvement is that Fayose is simply in office at the right time to benefit from the hard work put in by Fayemi over his 4 years in office.

Honorebu, omohayek, Fraud: Ekiti Suspends Forest Officers for Conniving with Timber Contractors Ekiti State Government has placed three officers of the State Forestry Department on indefinite suspension for negligence and allegedly conniving with timber contractors to defraud the State. The State Commissioner for Environment, Chief Bisi Kolawole who made this known in Ado Ekiti, on Friday explained that the suspension of the officers that had hitherto stationed at Ilawe in Ekiti South West Local Government Area would subsist pending the outcome of an investigation to determine their level of culpability. Kolawole said that the State Deputy Governor, Dr. Kolapo Olusola, had apprehended the trailer that was used to illegally transport planks out of the State, adding that preliminary investigation revealed that a particular timber contractor that had obtained permit to fell eight trees had unlawfully felled and processed over 20 trees into planks. www.thisdaylive.com/articles/fraud-ekiti-suspends-forest-officers-for-conniving-with-timber-contractors/232367/

Ekiti lawmakers were being ‘teleguided’ by Governor Fayose – OlukereThe Olukere of Ikere Ekiti, Oba Ganiyu Obasoyin, has described the resolution of the House of Assembly asking him to stop laying claim to the kingship as “unbelievable and saddening.” Obasoyin, who claimed that the lawmakers were being “teleguided” by Governor Ayo Fayose expressed regrets that the lawmakers arrived at the resolution when the process was yet to be completed. The Olukere, who reacted on phone expressed surprise that it was the House that invited him and promised to invite the other side (the Ogoga) and officials of the Bureau of Chieftaincy Affairs before arriving at a conclusion. He described the latest position of the lawmakers as “feeling the hand of Esau and hearing the voice of Jacob”, lamenting the erosion of the independence of the legislature in Ekiti State. Obasoyin said: “It is surprising to us because they had started a process and they have not ended it before passing their resolution. This is unbelievable and saddening. “This is akin to feeling the hand of Esau and hearing the voice of Jacob. These are House members representing the people, they wrote to me to come and defend my petition and they never gave me any condition. “I am surprised that they are making a resolution in the middle of the process because they promised to invite the other party and the officials of the Bureau of Chieftaincy Affairs. “They are being teleguided by the governor because he (Fayose) insisted that I should apologize to him before my request is considered. It is very unfortunate that other arms of government are not allowed to function in line with the Constitution in Ekiti State. “I will continue to appeal to my people to allow peace to reign in Ikere because we have God on our side. I will come out with a comprehensive reaction as soon as I arrive the state”. dailypost.ng/2016/02/25/ekiti-lawmakers-were-being-teleguided-by-governor-fayose-olukere/

Ekiti Teaching Hospital targets 24-hour electricity
The Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH), will soon start enjoying a 24-hour electricity, its Chief Medical Director (CMD), Dr Kolawole Ogundipe, has said.
Ogundipe told reporters in Ado Ekiti that solar power plant and medical gas plants were in the works to make the dream a reality.
When the two projects come on stream, they will help reduce overhead costs on electricity, he said.
Ogundipe said his administration had also secured approval for the ugrade of the Radiology Centre to provide CT scan and endoscopy.
According to him, the step became necessary to halt the suffering of patients being referred outside the hospital in need of such services.
He said: “On daily basis, three to four patients are being referred outside the hospital to other centres where they have these scan. Some of them will pay as much as this scan on transportation where they are going to.
“When we have these facilities here, it will reduce the burden on patients and it will help the personnel to timely treat their patients and it will be beneficial to everybody.”
Ogundipe explained that approval has also been secured from the state government to upgrade the mortuary to a status befitting a teaching hospital. The present mortuary facilities had been in use since the hospital was established as a district hospital before it was later upgraded to a general hospital.
He added that EKSUTH Maternity Complex will be expanded to provide better and more quality maternal and child health services.
Ogundipe noted that EKSUTH received 14 accreditation bodies last year which accredited many departments attesting to quality of the services rendered in the hospital.
The CMD expressed satisfaction that the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) has increased tremendously, noting that this has helped the hospital to reduce its debt burden from N416 million as at 31st July, 2013 to N62 million as at 31st December 2015.
Ogundipe added: “Our staff members are now more committed to our IGR drive because they know that they have roles to play in generating revenue. There is high degree of competition among the staff.
“People hitherto unable to access training are now being sponsored for further trainings and this will encourage them to do more for the system. “Significantly the management and the unions have been working together in a very cordial way to ensure that labour issues are resolved without degenerating to strikes that can impact negatively on the hospital.”
