“Politics Without Principles: CBN Onwuasoanya Ezendigbo Says System Failing the People”

 Speaking to OrionTimes, presidential aspirant in the last general elections, Onwuasoanya Ezendigbo, who is also the founder of Better Nigeria for Better People, delivered a scathing critique of Nigeria’s political structure, describing it as a system driven by money rather than principles or public service. According to Ezendigbo, the current political class has failed to uphold moral standards and does not genuinely represent the interests of the people. He stressed that governance in Nigeria has strayed far from its core purpose, leaving citizens to grapple with poor infrastructure, weak institutions, and declining social services. He pointed to the struggles faced by students in rural communities, particularly during examination periods like the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). “In the rainy season, many students cannot even access their exam centres due to bad roads,” he said, noting that such challenges reflect deeper systemic neglect. Ezendigbo lamented the s...

Oke’s Red Chamber Litmus: How Did He Manage to Reach Everyone in a Game Built for Few?





....analysts are left asking how one man reached everyone


As Hon. Wole Oke makes his historic transition from the Green Chamber to the Red Chamber, a new dawn breaks for Osun East. For years, he has been more than a representative, he has been a bridge between the people and power, a voice that resonates across party lines, and a servant leader who understands that politics is ultimately about people.


In a terrain where loyalty is rare and trust is fragile, Hon. Oke has planted both, deeply in the hearts of his constituents. His legacy in the House of Representatives is not just measured in motions moved or bills passed, but in lives touched, communities empowered, and hope restored.


Now, as he ascends to the Senate, many will ask: how did he manage to reach everyone in a game often played by few?
Analysts are already grappling with the question, how did one man manage to stay visible, accessible, and effective across every stretch of Osun East?
The answer lies in his quiet strategy, his consistency, and his belief that leadership is about presence—not just in Abuja, but in every ward, every town, every home.



Osun East now stands at the threshold of unprecedented representation. With Hon. Oke in the Red Chamber, the voice of the people will echo louder, and their interests will be defended with even greater tenacity. This is more than a political shift, it is the reward of trust earned, and the promise of a stronger future.

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
