OYES: Understanding The Exit Program

OYES Component
As OYES is a revolving scheme for participating volunteers, they are expected to exit the programme after two years. As part of the government’s plan to set them on the path of economic freedom, a robust exit strategy was designed to arm the volunteers with new skills, entrepreneurship and proper mentoring programme to prepare them for gainful exit from the scheme.
These exit strategies are to facilitate a healthy transition into the state and national economies and at the same time allow another batch of 20,000 unemployed youths to experience the benefits of serving as Volunteers in the scheme.
These Strategies include the following:

  1. Deployment as Teachers to Public schools.
  2. Deployment to Agricultural Initiatives (O’REAP).
  3. Absorption into the State’s Civil Service.
  4. Deployment to applicable ICT opportunities via OYESTECH.
  5. Sponsoring of some volunteers abroad for specialized training.

The OYES till-date remains the most progressive and pragmatic response to arresting the high level of youth unemployment in the State. It is a novel conception and radical approach aimed at tackling restiveness and idleness among the youth by Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola’s administration.

FINANCE: "Osun Is Economically Stable And Strong" – Finance Commissioner


Commissioner for Finance, State of Osun,  Dr. Wale Bolorunduro has stressed that the state is economically stable and strong in spite of the massive construction works going on in all parts of the state. Bolorunduro in an interview stated that contrary to insinuation in some quarters that the state was insolvent, the economy of the state was in the increase.
He  noted  that the opposition leaders in the state particularly from the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) as political jobbers who in spite of the massive transformation of the state in the past three years, see nothing good about the present administration in the state.
According to him, “don’t mind their claim that the state had gone bankrupt. You can also see that there is massive construction works going on everywhere, so if the state, is insolvent, would there be that kind of level of development in virtually all parts of the state? He said “Today I can say that the state is not insolvent. The question of insolvency should not even arise at all. They are just jabbering and we would not be distracted by their negative comments,” he added.
While speaking on non commissioning  of projects since governor Aregbesola came to power in  the state he  contended that commissioning of projects was meant for lazy leaders adding that the level of works done and the developments carried during his tenure would speak for him.
The Commissioner also recalled that, in all the advanced countries of the world, leaders are not seen rolling out drums to commission projects saying commissioning of projects was another waste of public funds.
He remarked that “Our administration did not believe in commissioning of projects. We believe it is the people’s projects, so why must you commission it. In all the advanced countries of the world, we don’t see leaders commissioning projects all over the way we do it in this country.”
He expressed  happiness  with the level of works done by the contractors handling various projects in the state stressing that “they are working according to the specification and I am sure that all projects would be completed on scheduled”.

Kareem Adepoju
The Osun House of Assembly on Friday in Osogbo held a special session for a veteran Yoruba Nollywood actor, Alhaji Kareem Adepoju, who clocked 50 years on stage.
Adepoju, popularly known as Baba Wande and who hails from Olorunda Local Government Area of Osun state, received encomium from the lawmakers for his consistency in the Nollywood industry.
In his remarks, the Speaker of the assembly, Hon. Najeem Salaam, said Adepoju was celebrated because of his positive impact on the society through theatre.
Najeem, who said the actor was the first to be honoured with a special session, described him as a role model.
He said: “We are celebrating Adepoju today because of his successful career in the film industry in the last 50 years. He has used theatre to promote our culture, language, dressing and there is need to celebrate him. He is a pride to the state and the country at large and others should emulate his good virtues. It is because of his good deeds that we are celebrating him today and this is a virtue others should emulate. We don’t want to be celebrating great people after their death and that is why we are celebrating Adepoju in his life time.”
Also speaking, the state Commissioner for Youths and Sports, Stephen Kola-Balogun, said Adepoju was one of the role models the youths should emulate. Kola-Balogun, however, urged the actor not to relent in impacting positively on the people through theatre.
In his response, Adepoju thanked the assembly for celebrating him with a special session and described it as a thing of joy.

2014-AREGBESOLA

2014-AREGBESOLA
The interim Chairman of the Osun State chapter of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Elder Adelowo Adebiyi has attributed the laudable achievements of the Rauf Aregbesola administration in the state to the training and experience he gathered over the years from administrative icons.
Declaring open a three-day workshop on the theme: ‘Political Party Renewal and Organization’ organized for the leadership of APC in the state by Comrade Ola Oni Center for Research and Development in Osogbo on Tuesday, Adebiyi noted that politicking has gone beyond political meetings organized under a politician’s confinement.
Adebiyi said the challenges posed by various happenings in the political terrain this day called for training for practitioners so that the larger populace may enjoy the dividends of democracy.
The state APC boss noted that Governor Aregbesola has introduced civility into governance, the result of which the people of Osun State are enjoying today adding that no government can achieve any success in an environment devoid of peace.
He urged participants to make the best use of the opportunity provided by the workshop so that the society would not only benefit from the training but the participants can leave a legacy worthy of emulation politically by upcoming politicians.
In his keynote address, Dr.Abayomi Ferreira regretted that all the political parties in Nigeria lack the necessary factors for national development adding that the essential elements for a purposeful political party development are lacking.
According to him, “the story of Nigeria is one that emphasizes the need for a change in strategy and tactics, a change in policy and programme, a change in orientation. The political parties, including the APC I am sorry to say, lack the necessary factors for national development.
“For Nigerians to enjoy the dividends of democracy, there is the need to dismantle the ongoing self-seeking foreign designed programme of deregulation, privatization, and downsizing that the right wing politicians are using to put the nation’s wealth in their own pockets”.

Dr. Precious K. Gbeneol The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Millennium Development Goals

Dr. Precious K. Gbeneol
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Millennium Development Goals

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Millennium Development Goals (SSP-MDGs), Dr. Precious Gbeneol, has disclosed that the three tiers of government spend about N3 trillion annually as against the total sum of N4.3 trillion required to achieve the MDGs targets before the 2015 deadline.
She singled out  Osun,  Lagos and Imo States for their remarkable poverty reduction rates
Gbeneol stated this yesterday, when the team from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) visited the Office of SSAP-MDGs (OSSAP-MDGs) to find out the country’s performance track towards achieving the MDGs.
She said the country had done remarkably well in meeting the targets of some of the MDGs, despite the shortfall of N1.3 trillion needed annually to achieve the goals.
According to her, the outcome of the Needs Assessment projected cost of meeting the MDGs from 2010 to 2015 at the exchange rate of N150 to $1 would require N4,259,550.
She said: “Based on the 2012 budget analysis…, the three tiers of government spend more than N3.0 trillion on the MDGs with an annual gap of about N1.0 trillion. The budget total for 774 local government areas (LGAs) is N1.75 trillion with MDGs component of N791 billion; while the total spending across the country is N3 trillion, with about N872 billion being spent by the federal government.
However, a fund-gap of N1 trillion will be needed every year to achieving the targets of MDGs.”
The SSAP-MDGs listed the target areas where the annual budget of N4.3 trillion would be required to include education N282 million, health N743 million, agriculture N1.1 billion, energy N810,500 million, water N418,500, housing N126,750 million, roads N733 million and environment N31,500 million.
Gbeneol commended the IMF Team, saying their (IMF) yearly evaluation visits helps to keep focused and on track.
She, who said the intervention measures put on ground by the OSSAP-MDGs have been able to achieve some of the targets of the Goal 1, most of Goal 5 and 4, disclosed the Conditional Grant Scheme/Cash transfer, where the sum of N10billion were spent last year on 112,000 households in 24 states have been helpful in addressing issue of poverty and hunger, adding that the amount will be expanded to N20billion across 30 states in 2014.
She singled out Lagos, Osun and Imo States for their remarkable poverty reduction rates, while the states of the he North-east, North-west belt of Jigawa-Gombe-Yobe-Sokoto performed badly.
She said: “Child mortality rate is worse in the North, so also women literacy rate, especially as a country, we have done remarkably well to reduce the population suffering from hunger drastically from 19.1 per cent in 1981 to 8.62 per cent in 2012.  Poverty reduction is also on the downward trend.
“Taking stock on what we have done so far, the progress we have made, the level of accomplishment in the achievement of the MDGs; and in consonance with the data provided the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), we can say that poverty is actually on the downward slide.
“If we pay due consideration to the available data, there is evidence that the MDGs framework has had impact on Nigeria development, having attained key targets of Gaols 1, 3 and 6 with the potential to achieve MDGs 4, 5 and 8,” she added.
Responding, the team leader and Senior Economist with IMF, Mr. Cheikh Anta Gueye, expressed concern over noticeable developmental disparity between the North and Southern part of the country.
Gueye commended the progress made by the country, but warned that achieving the MDGs target might not be possible if the North continues to lag behind in all the important indices.
“How do we address the regional differences and bridge the noticeable inequality between the north-south divide. We support the effort of the FG towards achieving the MDGs targets. We think that they are making a lot of progress and we appreciate what they are doing towards reducing poverty. I think its in line with the goal of IMF to achieve macro-economic stability. We think the federal government are on the right track going forward to high economic growth and we will provide technical assistance,” he assured.
The team, however, demanded integration of data and  list of major intervention programmes towards achieving the MDGs across the country.

He said, “So during our campaign, we promised to work on their needs which we had already known through the survey. Since we came into power, we have been waging a war to banish poverty, hunger, unemployment. That is why education is among our cardinal programmes so as to get our people educated and informed.
“We realize that no society can help itself without education. And as well some of our programmes promote healthy living so that we can raise the level of our productivity.”
The governor promised to support the company because of the multiplier effect of its operation on the economy of the state.

And before we sought for mandate, we did a thorough study of the state environment and came out with Six Integral Action Plan as the major objective of our administration. Thus, waging war on poverty, banishment of hunger and unemployment, among others. Beyond these three monsters, we make commitment to functional education and promotion of healthy living while a critical factor in modern life is guarantee of peace and security.”
Earlier, the state Commissioner for Finance, Budget and Economic Planning, Dr. Wale Bolorunduro, explained that the essence of signing the MoU was to industrialize the state.

Bolorunduro disclosed that it was the company that identified five investment models that snowballed into the MoU.
He assured that the state government would assist the company to acquire land, take care of resettlement cost, title and other encumbrances.

He said the state government was assisting the company so that it would not be lured away by neighbouring states.
The Chief Operating Officer of IBL Plc, Mr. Carlos Gomez, disclosed that the company’s presence in Osun State meant that it has some social responsibility to the people.
Also, the company chairman, Otunba Michael Daramola, disclosed that the brewery’s expansion would run for about four years, but lamented that loan interest rate was killing.
