Billyonaire: Soyinka knows the right thing to do but he chose to do it wrongly. That protest is welcomed in any Democracy, but it should be to the Parliament and not to a governor. There is nothing a Governor can do about an issue that borders on Office of First Lady and budgeted by the FCT Ministry. Granted the office of the First Lady is unconstitutional, the Parliament should address the misnorm and scrap the expense. 4 billion is too much money to be spent on a building. How much is the cost of a bag of cement and paint? GEJ needs to remember, he, just like me had no shoes, and he should not forget that just like both of us, there are many kids out there that has no shoes and have no goodluck to be President. I stick to truth and the truth sets me free always. You're a tool! So every protest must be at Abuja? |

oluwadare26: The Professor really fall my hands on this! Who is BRF to stop the precidency 4rm building the 4billion house? He no go protest 4 National Assembly he went to Alausa... Cant stop laughing He does not need to get to Abuja before he could register a protest. Fashola is representing the president in Lagos State. The protest letter is to be delivered to the president through Gov. Fashola. |

V-lyrics: Why don't we all start a public outcry or something for Soyinka to campaign for president come 2015? At least, it's the least we could do if we want to salvage our nation from destructive influences, and we have to do that ourselves. Formerly, I would have criticized the professor to just stick to writing, but I have known better now. These popular politicians don't have the interests of the citizenry at heart as much as someone like Prof Soyinka. Please if anyone is with me on this one, let's start a web revolution on Twitter and other social networks till he starts having sleepless night over it. |

The tragedy of it all is that the land was proposed to house a cancer centre by Turai Yaradua. The fct minister being a clown an imcompetent one for that matter has proposed that such amount should be spent for the first ladies project trying kiss gej's feet to help him become bauchi state governor. That is the tragedy of cluelessnes in the face of scatse foriegn exchange being used up for medical tourism. |

This country is a total failure.How can a budget worth of 4billion be approved for mission house construction in the FCT for the first lady where there are graduate out there seeking for employment.As at yesterday,we have a corpers passing out of the camp without any hope of getting job.I think the three arms of government should think about this. Instead of building mission house,why not allocate this money to each graduate for entrepreneurship purpose.God bless Nigeria!!! |

Anyone very concerned about this can contact their representatives from this page. Just locate your representative at each level and voice your opinion rather than simply shouting on an anonymous forum. 3 Likes |

4 Billion Naira for 1st Lady! and Wole Soyinka, Odei Odubakin and other civil right advocator gather one fell swoop and the right person to hear them is Fashola! What an irony, the man that pauperize generation of Lagosian The man who enjoy free education and increase school fee LASU school fee from 25,000 to 350,000 on the pretence that he want to build world class university. University that was build by progressive and autentic action Governor of Lagos Alhaji LKJ Jakande. That on did not attract the attention of Civil Right group in Nigeria. |

The protesters read Wole Soyinka's message written to them not as if he was there. |

Re: Soyinka Leads Protest To Fashola Over N4bn First Lady House by NET1(m): 10:57am On Feb 15, 2013 |
What is Soyinka doing sef? What can Fashola do about it? If he truly wants something to come out of this protest, he should go to the house of Reps and Senate - not Fashola. Like someone said, it's like Reporting the Principal to the Class Prefect. Nigeria is bigger than Lagos. And for those bringing Achebe into the equation, I don't see how it adds up. .NET |

finni: Abeg wake up if na sleep you dey so. Was Fashola appointed by the President? Is this the military era when the dictator Head of State will appoint his fellow coupists as MILADs over the people? [size=14pt]It is 14 years since we did away with that DICTATORSHIP unitary command system[/size]. In case you have forgotten, governors are now ELECTED by the people of the state. Soyinka and his fellow protesters could have done better than this. Don't they know their NASS senators and representatives to lodge complaints and follow the debate on the floor of the national assembly Meanwhile the Prof and his fellow protesters will do well to also ask their LGA chairmen and councillors what they are doing with the monthly FG allocations. It is pointless to leave the ELECTED public servants and political office holders CLOSEST to you that are doing practically nothing and start worrying about remote FG. ___________________________________________________ 2015 - Next Level Democracy Join a political party in your LG ward with friends and folks NOW |

inufele2: Not only a tool, but a worthless yahoo-yahoo boy always attempting cheap 419. What the hell is the "office of the first Lady" he mentions if not the 419 GEJ and his embarrassing wife are using to justify a wasteful jamboree for a position not recognised in the constitution. Nigerians should learn , once and for all, that is is what will happen embracing sentiments to vote in an 'accidental' President who clearly falls far below what is desirable. The problem is that many Nigerians, despite their noise, and like the yahoo-yahoo boy you address here, are simply not exposed. This is why they can continue to make all manners of excuses to defend the 'throw-back' antics of a man placed far above his station. Even GEJ's African peers must regard him with amusement because of what they see happening under him they are not at liberty to attempt in their own Country. When Patience Jonathan is now a Permanent secretary in Bayelsa, terrible enough as that is, what is this N4 billion "mission house" crap about? Was it not bad enough she fought with Turai to forcefully take over the Abuja land we are told they plan to build this ridiculous "mission house" on? Nigeria must pay for it as well? When will these people develop a conscience and stop ridiculing Nigeria? The first lady is just a nuisance and an embarrassment being entertained by a totally unprincipled husband. |

scopusng: LAGOS — Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka and civil society groups, Thursday, condemned the N4 billion earmarked for the construction of a Mission House for the First Lady, Patience Jonathan, in the 2013 budget of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, saying it is “a mind-boggling fiscal misappropriation.” i miss Gani fawehim....iam sure this issue would be in court by now. |
