Oyintiloye hails Osun teachers for ending strike

The All Progressives Congress candidate for Obokun State Constituency in the Osun State House of Assembly, Mr Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, has lauded the understanding of teachers in the state for calling off their sit-down strike.

He said the understanding shown by the leadership and members of the Nigeria Union of Teacher underscored their patriotism and support for Governor Rauf Aregbesola administration, as well as their commitment for change in Nigeria.

Speaking at the Obokun Local Government Education Board 2015 ecumenical prayer in Ibokun on Friday, Oyintiloye said the basis for the grievances of the teachers was propelled by the paucity of funds occasioned by the slash in federal allocation to the state.

The Osun NUT had suspended the strike the members embarked upon since December 2, 2014, to protest the non-payment of leave bonus, leave grants to secondary school teachers and non-payment of examination and running grants to schools in the state.

The financial challenge we are facing in Osun today is not orchestrated by our government, but by the PDP-led Federal Government, which drastically reduced our allocation so that we will not be able to meet your demands.

If not for the good understanding and your intelligence, you will not agree with us that it is not our government that is out to punish you, but the Federal Government, he said.

Nigeria Opposition Party Denies Plot to Rig February Election

The spokesman for Nigerias main opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied accusations that it plans to electronically rig the February general election by hacking into the server of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Lai Mohammed said the allegation is aimed at preventing the electoral commission from using the biometric system, which INEC plans to use to reduce voter irregularities during the poll.

The Department of State Services (DSS) accused the APC of plotting to hack into INECs voter registration data base.

Local media quoted DSS spokesperson Marilyn Ogar as saying, acting on a tip off, officials from the organization seized a computer hard drive containing a video of 21 hacking tutorials during raids at the APC center in Lagos State.

The tutorial video focused on how to become a hacker and steps to take to avoid detection in the process of hacking web servers, steps and procedures of system hacking, passwords cracking, decrypting, escalating access privileges, and creating backdoors to serversThe video explains how to hack into the systems of media houses, with the aim of broadcasting fake stories or headlines, Ogar said.

But APC spokesman Mohammed dismissed the accusations as a ploy to thwart efforts of the party to win next months vote.

He said the DSS has changed its previous accusation from the APC attempting to clone cards to plotting to hack into INECs data base to rig the election.

I have never seen a more partisan organization such as the DSS because if you look at the report, it is wishy-washy and so unprofessional, said Mohammed. When the DSS raided our offices what they told the whole world was that they were working on the information that we were attempting to clone voters card. Fifteen days later, they cannot come up with one single cloned card to show the world, he said.

Mohammed said the alleged bias against the APC violates the mandate of the DSS.

[It] is so partisan that they have become nothing more than the security arm of the PDP [Peoples Democratic Party], said Mohammed. For any security or intelligence gathering organization of any country to behave the way the DSS is behaving, we are not surprised that this country has problems with Boko Haram because there is nothing professional about them at all, he said.
