kennytidistar: [Symphony007]As anti-fashola as i am, i don't see anything wrong in averting disaster and saving lives. My only concern is the "relocation" of the residence.

And the bottom line is "TRUST" which people lost in this present administration.

Lilnikee: What happens τo the land?

aglomar: Fashola reasons to intl standards while most Nigerians have warped 3rd world mentality. Good initiative BRF! Poverty n ignorance have made us have little regard for our lives.

Guk:

Why are you concerned about their relocation? Its the job of Govt to do so & they are up to the task. Am not aware of any legitimately displaced people in Lagos state that have not bn adequately relocated.

Why have people lost trust in this present administration? list out what they have promised you and betrayed you and other residents of LAgos state about?

Na why the LCDA Chairman come dey speak with two mouths like sey im nor sabi the profile of the people wey dey live for im constituency. Na which kain insurance for Jakande flats wey im dey yarn so?
Let us remember these houses were built and delivered some [size=13pt]30 years ago by then UPN governor, Alhaji Lateef Jakande[/size] aka Baba Kekere. They were bought mostly by civil servants and small scale business people aka petty traders. That is what an Action governor who understands democracy means:

Government of the people, by the people, for the people.

unlike [b]the new masters of Alausa house, whose definition is:

Government of the elite, by the elite, for the elite [size=13pt]PAID for by the MUGUcious masses/people.[/size][/b]

tawa89: That means Jakande built substandard houses? A minus to baba kekere's administration. They should pack out and sue Lagos state government for selling poorly constructed houses to them and for endangering their lives.

larride:

Let's get some things into perspective, I was born and bred in Lagos also, I ain't working right now because I'm still a student and trust me when I say I know what struggling means, I wasn't born with a silver spoon neither was my parent getting a dime from the government, I'm not an acn butt licker but telling you as I see things. Since this current regime is corrupt and insincere, can you please tell us what they have to done that has impacted your life negatively? Do you want to build your house in Lagos and they told you NO? When last have you been to Lagos? Do they stop you from going to school and getting a Job? Isn't it funny that you say you school and work in Lagos and yet you say the govt is corrupt and insincere, who provide the enabling environment that allow investors to come in and get people like you employed? Is it the FG?

jerseyboy:

Jakande built substandard houses, substandard schools, and substandard gutters and appropriated about every valuable open space that Lagos needed to remain open spaces to construct these eyesores.

Guk:


Do these below sound like for the elites??

Construction of 660 housing units in Agbowa wt about 584 people now employed in construction there
Construction of a 60km pipeline network to be dedicated to such areas as Iju, Agege, Ifako-Ijaiye, Alimosho
36-unit housing project in Shitta
60-unit housing project in Mushin
Currently constructing housing units in Igando
Constructing housing units in Igbogbo

Initially I felt I should ignore your obviously misleading post. However I see that many of the pseudo-progressive ACN "opposition" propagandists are lapping on to it for new spins.
How many of your Lagosian relations, friends and acquaintances who are between 37-50 years old who benefitted from Jakande's feee education with books are SUBSTANDARD people How many of them have turned out to be eyesores?

This is a governor who achieved so much for the [size=13pt]real people (masses) of Lagos without any extra burden on the current residents of Lagos in the guise of humonguous IGR nor the FUTURE, unborn residents of the state with bonds and loans![/size]

jerseyboy:

Ultimately Jakande’s educational legacy will be judged by what destruction followed his policies. Lagos had some of the best secondary schools in the world. CMS, St Finbars, St Gregory, Holy Child etc. were all institutions on their way to rivaling the best in the world. You could go to those schools back then and know you have had a first class education. Free education could have been carried out while leaving those schools alone. By the way what was so wrong with afternoon schools that Jakande had to cancel them over night so as to build those shacks to accommodate everyone in the morning? Now its private schools everywhere and the elites will not be caught dead sending their children to high schools in Nigeria.
