The Shame of a Propaganda Government: The Holy Aruosa Primary School Video Exposé
The Edo state APC led government that thrives and propelled by propaganda was exposed and I believe embarrassed by the very damaging video of Holy Aruosa Primary School that went viral yesterday, Wednesday, June 20, 2018.
It is however pleasing to hear that the government acted swiftly by relocating the pupils and teachers to another school. Just like the “Go and Die” jolted Adams Oshiomhole to render apologies for his bad and uncultured behavior, so has this Holy Aruosa Primary School Video woken Gov Obaseki from his deep slumber and penchant for signing MOUs and endless ground breaking ceremonies!
That video is actually the tip of the iceberg in relation to the infrastructural decay that litters the nooks and crannies of our beloved state.
It was a sorry sight to see and preposterous to hear that EDSG is blaming vandals for the rot it has superintended over in the last 10 years and then went into overdrive again posting videos of the few schools it had managed to apply “band aid” to. Even more laughable and unforgivable is the lame statement that they will investigate why the initial relocation order of pupils and teachers of Holy Aruosa Primary School was ignored. This is an after-thought and should be beneath even a government as clueless and insensitive as this Godwin Obaseki led government. Instead of Governor Godwin Obaseki to get to work, his government is still coming up with fancy acronyms to bamboozle a citizenry that he was imposed upon. What is Edo-Best?
The major reason Holy Aruosa Primary School suffered this fate is because it not a polling center. This government and its predecessor government in preparation for the 2012 and 2016 elections, applied some cosmetic renovations over and over again to the same schools that were voting centers in an attempt to hoodwink Edo people . They forgot that the chickens will come home to roost. The proverbial wind like it is said, has exposed the rump of the chicken.
Our sympathy goes to the parents, pupils and teachers who were exposed for political expediency to such harsh conditions not fit for animals.
As a political party, we will continue to expose the ills of this government and propagate good and responsible governance.
PDP… listening to the cries of Edo People!
