You have to understand that politics in nigeria right now is very hot. Having just recently returned from naija myself, everyone is really hot up with the 2007 election just right the corner, I think anyone that's not OBJ's boy is definately on his OWN.

I have a copy of city people here which i bought in naija dated jan 11 2006 vol 18 with the heading WHY PRESIDENT OBJ WANTS GOV. LADOJA OUT. I will just summarise the whole story some people believe that the issue of impeaching Gov Ladoja was further fulled by the undisguised support that the president has shown in support of Adedibu (who is percieved as the godfather of oyo state politics) . unconfirmed reports alleged that the president was quoted to have told a delegation of top Ibadan indigenes who visited him that the resolution of the crisis in oyo state can only be achieved if gov Ladoja is removed from office. However, the supporters of the governor are however alleging that the president's actual grouse may be because the governor is perceived to be an ally of the vc atiku and as such must be taught a bitter lesson. They also said that the governor would have been able to resolve the issue if adedibu had not received the president's backing. Some also argue that the governor is the architect of his own problem as he does not have a firm control on his law makers, he is not in good terms with two PDP senators in the state ( i find this hard to believe though) I have to stop here but I just think that this 2007 election is going to cause a lot of problem in Nigeria especially with the issue of OBJ wanting to run for a third term in office there are mixed feelings in Nigeria about whether or not OBJ should be allowed to run for the third term. The VC sef no help matter as he wants to contest in the next election himself. Governors are in a tight situation now because it's either you're on Atiku's side or OBJ's side.
