I’m sympathetic to the plight of LAUTECH students – Governor Ajimobi’s Daughter

Ajibola Ajimobi, daughter of Oyo state governor, has denied lambasting students of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) over the encounter with her father.

The governor had talked down on aggrieved students, who stormed his office to protest 8-month closure of their school.

An Instagram user who identified herself as Ajimobi’s daughter, had described the students as “generation of manerless children”, attracting scorching criticisms.

But the governor’s daughter denied owning the account, which made the offensive statement.

“My attention has been drawn to a series of publications on social media and the Internet at large, which claim that I, Mrs Ajibola Ajayi (formerly known as Miss Ajibola Abiola-Ajimobi) lashed out at LAUTECH students calling them a manner less generation … on my instagram page,” she said in a statement.

“I wish to state that this story is completely false. It is malicious and willfully targeted at maligning and marring my character.Over the last 48 hours my reputation has been tarnished and my family and I have been subjected to cyber bullying and harassment. I have also received threats of violence as well as limitless insults as a result of this false publication.

“This has now spiraled out of control hence I feel the need to publicly address it since I have received numerous calls from various people, including friends, family members, colleagues and clients.

“I wish to further state that the instagram page referred to as “conceited_csj” through which it was alleged that I made the purported statement does not belong to me. Having once been a student myself, I am sympathetic to the plight of the LAUTECH students and empathize with them.”

Power, especially in a confused society like ours spread like gangrene. It becomes an insoluble dilemma to explain how the opportuned minorities that rides on the wings of the majority tends to confer the same power on their family members. Over time, there have been an un-constituted and assumed level of power that is being given to either the wife or the children of Nigerian leaders. Powers are unnecessarily arrogated to them, thereby leading to creation of money-gulping offices.
This unfortunate development makes them look sacred, untouchable and have an unrestrained regard or respect for the masses. It is in our democracy that you cannot distinctively separate the overbearing influence of the family from the supposed elected leaders. A country that over emphasizes immunity clause beyond the boiling point- a double barrel trouble for the helpless and hapless common men- as they (masses)  suffer verbal abuse from the father, the children or the wife without a proper reconfiguration of their cerebral grandstanding also delve into an unthinkable intellectual assault of the souls of men clamoring for their rights.
This is a social malady that has outlived its age on our terrestrial ball as a nation. The very undoubtedly known reason why the daughter of the Governor of Oyo state could hurled a verbal abuse on the protesting students. This imbalances and wrong sense of judgment that emanated from the odociferous mouth of the Mr. Governor’s Daughter seems to be a general syndrome of Nigerian leaders. These occurrences are products of the wide gap differences that exists between the leaders and the led.
Ajibola Ajimobi labeling the protesting students as “Generation of mannerless children…..” is a statement that is far from the Centre of deep reasoning. And a show of utmost disrespect for the unfortunate development that ransacked the smooth running academic program of the institution. She belongs to a class system that has completely eroded her level of human reasoning vis-a-vis the reactions of the aggrieved students. After all, she might not have experienced what it means to have a school closed down for a month not to talk of about eight months. She only reads or hears about it has a natural phenomenon in Nigeria education system.
I wish the Governor’s daughter will do well to put herself in this condition and stop suffering from the incessant diarrhea of the mouth. She can take a deep reflection by picturing herself among the number of heads that took to the street to demand for their future. May be if she can think like an evolved Homo sapiens that is made up of a well-developed brain, she will be human enough and not spit out such a gall. And may be if she did not understand what it means to be mannerless, history is there to judge. What about her sibling that was caught in sex scandal?
This and many more are the debilitating results of living on the masses common wealth and still have the gut to run bad mouth on why they have decided to be liberated from the siddon – look approach given to the closure of the school.
Mr. Governor’s Daughter, I am trying to borrow you some currency of common sense to know that silence weighs more than untutored courage in the public sphere. Do well to know that life only gave you a chance to be heard because of the poor political structure that we have. You are not in any way different!
This will however remain a reoccurring decimal unless the Nigerian leaders begin to enroll their own children into the same system that they destroying. And until there is no class system again as suggested by Karl Max, it is then that this show of absurdity would be brought to a staggering halt.

As reactions continue to trail the outburst of Governor Abiola Ajimobi at a protest organized by students of Ladoke Akintola University of Technolgy, LAUTECH, the governor’s daughter has gotten involved in the controversy.

Mr. Ajimobi’s daughter, Ajibola, labeled the protesting students “Generation of Mannerless Children” on her Instagram page.

“Generation of Mannerless children, they don’t respect their parents, how will they respect the Constitution” , the governor’s daughter said in apparent reaction to the students’ outburst on January 9.

Ajibola Ajimobi who got married last September is believed to be the second child to the Oyo governor.

LAUTECH students had on January 9 protested the continued closure of the university since June last year.

While addressing the protesting students, an angry Mr. Ajimobi told them to do their worst.

The Oyo governor, whose state jointly owns the University, miffed by the outbursts of the protesting students, said the closure of the university for over 7 months was no big deal.

“Your school being locked for eight months is no big deal. Is your school the first to be locked, if this is how you will come to talk to me, go and do your worst, I dare you,” he said.

Nigerians have continued to lampoon the governor since the video was released as Ajimobi continued to trend on Twitter on Sunday morning.

Reacting to the governor’s daughter’s statement, aware, the Senior Assistant to Mr. Ajimobi on Media, Yomi Olayinka, said the governor’s office is not aware of it

“As the governor’s spokesman, I am not aware of this development and I cannot comment since I am not aware,” he said.

When asked what he feels about such comment even if he aware, he said, “Well, I will call Mrs. Ajibola to ask her what she meant by that, but for now I don’t want to speculate, so I can’t react to anything of such.”

LAUTECH has been shut since June 2016, due to the inability of Osun and Oyo states to meet their obligations financially to the institution.
