Tinubu Sets Up Reconciliation Committee To Meet With Obi, Atiku Others

Mr Olugbenga Edema, the Chairman of Ondo State Oil Producing Area Development Commission (OSOPADEC), says that Gov. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu’s landslide victory is an evidence that the administration is acceptable in the state.


Edema stated this in his congratulatory statement to Gov. Akeredolu on Tuesday in Akure.


Akeredolu was declared winner of the Oct.10 election, having won 15 local councils of 18 local government areas of the state, polling 292,830 votes to defeat his closest rival, Mr Eyitayo Jegede of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who had 195,791.

“The election was exciting, pluralistic and portraits democracy at its best.
” It’s result? A landslide faithfully reflecting the will of the people and proving beyond any iota of doubt that your service was acceptable.
“And it’s portent? An impetus for greater achievement and more abundance of dividends of democracy. After all, the productive servant in the Holy Book who traded profitably with the given talents were blessed with additional allocations,” he stated.
The OSOPADEC Chairman said that he was confident that the renewed mandate will further reinvigorate the zeal to develop the oil producing area and complete the numerous projects already begun to transform the lives of the people.

Oba Akinruntan, Olugbo of Ugbo Kingdom congratulates Gov. Akeredolu.
His Imperial Majesty , Oba (Dr.) Frederick Obateru Akinruntan, Paramount Ruler and Prescribed Authority, Olugbo of Ugboland and Chairman Ondo State Council of Obas , has congratulated the Ondo state Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu, who has just been returned for second term through the massive votes of the Ondo state people on Saturday, the 10th October , 2020.
Oba Akinruntan in a statement he personally signed at Ugbo, said Gov. Akeredolu was ordained by God and his steps are God ordained. 
The Prescribed Authority and Paramount ruler of Ugbo Kingdom noted that Gov. Akeredolu’s victory excited him and all the good people of Ugbo as it confirms the fact that the voting masses of Ondo state are not oblivious of the giant strides of Akeredolu’s administration in his first term which is rounding off in few months time. 
He maintained that the successful outing of the All Progressive Congress (APC) and its flag bearer, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has put an end to the spurious claims of undemocratic forces who planned to slow down the progressive strides of Akeredolu which he has promised to improve on in his second term in office. Oba Akinruntan noted that if not for the steadfastness of the ever conscious and progressive minded people of Ondo state, the opposition would have pulled the wool over the people’s eyes and mislead them at the poll thereby drawing back the hand of development in the state.
While advising Gov. Akeredolu to be magnanimous in victory, he charged him to continue to execute the great plans he has in mind for Ondo state and to hold firm the pre- election promises he made which had encouraged the voters to trust and vote for him. 
“The Governor of Ondo state is not described as talk and do for nothing. He says what he means and means what he says. He made the good people of Ondo state many promises in his first term and  executed them.
“We recall that he said he will construct a flyover at Ore to put an end to the carnage on that busy high way and he executed the project to a logical conclusion visible to every discerning user of that road. He has promised the people of Ondo south in the Ilaje axis a Deep Seaport. We are confident more than ever before that the Governor will make this promise a reality.
“It is our joy that in Ilaje nation, our total votes for Gov Akeredolu, which stood at 26,657, was the second largest in Ondo state, a confirmation of our trust in the administration of Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu,” Oba Akinruntan maintained.
While praying to God to make the second tour of duty of Gov. Akeredolu a hitch free  and very successful one, Oba (Dr.) Frederick Enitiolorunda Akinruntan on behalf of the good people of Ugbo Land wished Gov. Akeredolu well as he commences his second term in office.

Oleksandr Usyk Defeats Tyson Fury Again, Solidifies Legacy Among Boxing Greats

Oleksandr Usyk Defeats Tyson Fury Again, Solidifies Legacy Among Boxing Greats

Oleksandr Usyk Defeats Tyson Fury Again, Solidifies Legacy Among Boxing Greats

Ukrainian boxing sensation Oleksandr Usyk retained his heavyweight championship titles and cemented his place in boxing history with a unanimous decision victory over Britain’s Tyson Fury in their rematch on Saturday night.

The judges scored the bout 116-112 in Usyk’s favor across the board, marking his second consecutive win over Fury. This victory extended Usyk’s flawless professional record to 23-0, with 14 knockouts, adding another chapter to a career already highlighted by Olympic gold and an undisputed cruiserweight championship.

A Masterclass Performance

Usyk, 37, showcased his signature precision and relentless pace, repeatedly catching Fury with clean left hooks and dominating the latter stages of the fight. Fury, at 6ft 9in (206cm) and weighing a career-high 281 pounds, attempted to impose his physicality but was unable to break Usyk’s composure.

The fight, held in Saudi Arabia, saw Usyk wearing traditional Cossack attire during his entrance, while Fury entered the arena dressed in a festive Santa-inspired robe to Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”

The early rounds were competitive, with Fury landing powerful jabs and body shots. However, Usyk’s endurance and tactical brilliance began to shine in the middle rounds. The Ukrainian landed sharp combinations and dictated the tempo, including a stunning uppercut in the final round that left little doubt about the outcome.

“I thought I’ve won both fights,” Fury said post-match, sporting a bruised right eye. “But I’ll always believe until the day I die that I won that fight.”

A Legacy Sealed

Usyk’s victory solidified his standing as one of the greatest heavyweights in history. Already the first undisputed heavyweight of the four-belt era, Usyk joins the ranks of legends like Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, and Mike Tyson.

The bout, reported to have a prize purse of $190 million, also underscored Saudi Arabia’s growing influence in global sports. Usyk, who served briefly as a soldier during Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, celebrated his victory by hoisting a symbolic sabre belonging to Ukrainian nationalist hero Ivan Mazepa.

Fury’s Uncertain Future

The defeat leaves Fury’s future in doubt. Once unbeaten across 35 fights, Fury now stands at 34-2-1. His attempt to reclaim glory after a brief retirement in 2022 has been marred by back-to-back losses to Usyk.

Usyk, on the other hand, continues to add to his already remarkable resume, leaving fans and critics alike in awe of his technical skill, resilience, and determination. As the heavyweight division looks ahead, Usyk’s reign appears unshakable, and his place among boxing’s all-time greats is firmly secured.
