The Many Lies Of Osun PDP Elders By Ismail Omipidan

Age, they say, is wisdom if one has lived one’s life properly. People should be mindful of the legacies they bequeath to the younger generations as they age, and all these Babas ought to know that lying shouldn’t be one of such legacies.

When Baba Francis Fadahunsi lied about four days ago, I tarried awhile, waiting to see if his office would disown the lies credited to him. After 24 hours, without reading any disclaimer from Baba Fadahunsi, I debunked the lies.

After debunking the lies, his spokesman, Pastor Segun Progress, came up to say “Senator Fadahunsi never made any statement on N9B, it’s an idle government with a lot to hid that will use quality time responding to a WhatsApp post. Osun really needs deliverance.”

It did not stop there. Some PDP social media guys joined him to chorus the above lines.

Ironically, among those who joined him were people who had used Baba Fadahunsi’s false claims as basis to malign and haul insults at my principal, Governor Adegboyega Oyetola. In a saner clime, these people ought to have first apologised for accusing the government and the governor wrongly before looking at the propriety or otherwise of our response.

To further confirm their lies, I am aware that Baba Fadahunsi and his spokesman have so far turned down two separate requests to have a conversation with me on their bogus claims. Rave FM’s “Frank Talk” anchor, Mr. Femi Olanipekun, said so during the programme he hosted on Wednesday, where I had featured to further reinforce our position that these people are peddlers of lies.

I was, therefore, taken aback this morning to read another Baba, who incidentally is the acting Chairman of a faction of the PDP in the state, Elder Sunday Atitade trying to reinforce a claim Baba Fadahunsi had since denied.

Long before Baba Fadahunsi made his bogus claims, we had lined up Commissioners, Special Advisers, and other government officials to kick-start a ministerial briefing today. Thank God, one of those lined up is a member of our Health Revitalisation Committee. I am sure all the issues raised in the PDP Press Release will be addressed.

But before then, let me hasten to add that only the blind will fail to see our intervention in the Health Sector. In Ede, where Baba Sunday Atitade hails from, we have done more than 10 of the Primary Healthcare Centres, PHCs. Did he visit any of them, and he could not find the structure there or what? Where was Baba on September 16, 2019? We were at Adejuwon in Ede North, to inaugurate one of the PHCs. Baba, you need not travel to Osogbo from Ede, to not only see these structures, but feel the presence of a government that is not discriminatory.

In case the naysayers have forgotten, apart from rehabilitating and renovating these PHCs, these are the other components associated with the revitalisation of the PHCs: Water Project with 5,000 litres of storage tanks and six fetching bays for the host communities where the PHC is located, medical equipment supplied to each focal PHCs that is under Rehabilitation, Adult and Infant weighing scale, blood pressure monitor, beddings and drugs among many other requirements as prescribed by WHO.

Below are some of our interventions in the health sector:

FOR OUR HEALTH INSURANCE AGENCY, SEE WHAT THE GOVT HAS DONE.

Mr. Governor promised during his inauguration to provide qualitative healthcare to the people of our dear state through the implementation of Osun Health Insurance Scheme (OHIS).

• Within the first few months in office he approved the release of enabling circulars for the participation of the public servants and the tertiary institution students

• He released take-off grant of One Hundred and Fifty Million (150,000,000) Naira from SOML fund for the establishment of the Agency

• He also ensured that the equity grant meant to provide the services for the poor vulnerable people was included in the 2019 and 2020 budgets.

• He approved the release of Four Hundred and Seventy Seven Million, Nine Hundred and Twelve Thousand, Three Hundred and Ten (477,912,310) Naira as equity grant (also from SOML fund)

• He has renovated Primary Health Centres (PHCs) also from SOML fund, about 250 of which are already delivering services to both rural and urban dwellers of the state, including the poorest of the poor benefitting from the health insurance scheme of the government through equity grant.

• He stocked the PHCs with drugs and purchased equipments for their operations.

• He recently approved the establishment of OHIS Drug Distribution Centre which is now supplying medicines and consumables to 16 OHIS accredited government secondary health facilities across the state in order to put an end to the perennial Out of Stock Syndrome of medicines in government secondary healthcare facilities for health insurance enrollees.

• He approved the full implementation of Revised Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS) and Consolidated Health workers’ Salary Structure (CONHESS)in order to attract medical doctors and other health workers to the state with a view to improving the shortage of health personnel in all government hospitals in the state.

• Many government workers and self employed as well as unemployed poor persons are benefitting from the state health insurance scheme (OHIS). So far over fifty surgical operations ranging from hydrocelectomy to caesarian section and even bilateral below elbow amputation have been done under OHIS.
