humpito:We know them when we see them! PDP goons! U can choose to call the whole world blind for seeing Fashola as a performer, its ur call. The truth is 70% of the WHOLE WORLD knows Fash has done well. A thousand posts like the above won't change that.. God forbid a man in the mould of PDP's Gbenga Daniel takes over Lagos.

Onegai: The problem you just narrated has no bearing on Fashola actually. If anything, it shows that the systems and society is infinitely corrupt. If you have any evidence of corruption, the right thing to dowould be to report it to the press or the police, but I bet you would be endangering your life if you do. It's the decay we want addressed, but the current set up of Nigeria would not allow for a general overhauling of the system. Anyway, you have totally negated your accusation that Fashola did nothing by saying that Lagosians as Nigerians are used to eating mud, but have now through Fashola atleast upgraded to eating sand. |

I don't see Fashola as a propagandist. He is a pragmatic governor. It is the popularity of Lagos state and the zealous performance of the governor that are attracting attention to Lagos. Take the EBOLA case for instance, you realized how swift the governor and his team reacted to the situation. Go to some states, you will hardly hear any other news than the mention of 'our governor'. I have met d guy inspecting a lot of ongoing projects himself. He monitors contracts and makes sure d contractors don't abandon projects. Go to ikorodu road (which is a Federalgovt abandoned road). Before you accuse Fashola, I want you to point at federal govt projects in Lagos. 2 Likes |

I am pretty sure that after so many pages, this issue will have been thoroughly thrashed but here are my 2 cents to the writer. (1) About IGR vis a vis borrowing. Funds needed for Capital projects are needed in bulk whilst IGR comes in bits and pieces, therefore you borrow based on your anticpated income and you use the income as they come in to offset the borrowing. The writer failed in pointing out track record. Its a great risk to a lender to keep borrowing to a chronic defaulter. LASG has shown itself as good loanee. It is on record that Lagos state clears its debt appropraitely. Now, for a simple street analogy, if the writer owned a Barbing Salon, can he use his daily earnings to pay for his annual rent or even to replace a broken chair or even to expand?? Capital No!!! He will borrow within his limit and pay back as and when due. (2) Comparison with Dubai: Unfortunately, a comparative analysis was not done by the Writer. Dubai is simply where it is today because it copied a Biblical principle in 2 Chronicles 1: 14-17. It turned itself in to a Hub. Traders bring from the Far East; India etc and you from Africa and other locations need not make the long journey to the far East, so they brought buyers and sellers to a marketplace and they benefitted from that convergence. Also, the Europeans saw it as a liberal part of Middle East where they could run away from home during winter for the Sunshine as they consume their beer which they cant do in other sunny parts of Middle East. Most importanly, every Business you see in Dubai is owned by the Emiratis (the Omo Onile; the natives). I repeat every business is OWNED by by the Emiratis. They only allow you the foreigner to use their Business Certificate to operate, so, you bring your own money; your own personnel and set up the business and they get a token for you using their Business Certificate to operate, so everything remains there with them after you leave and lastly, YOU CANNOT NATURALISE WHETHER BY BIRTH OR BY MARRAIGE OR LENGHT OF STAY!!!! Now, can you practise the Dubai model in Lagos under a Federation?? No!!!, so, LAgos has to find another way to develop. (3) LASU fees: The greatest losers i still insist are the students. Anybody who gets trained on less than 100pounds a year and feels he can compete in the marketplace/employment space with better educated uni graduates is fooling him/herself. (Remember, its my opinion which i am entitled to) (4) Water Supply:Though lacking, i myself keep wondering how LASG copes with daily influx of thousnads of other Nigerians daily. No infrastructure can be expanded as fast as migration. None! but is LASG striving? Yes, we see water projects been embarked upon by govt (5) IGR: Is it enough? NO!!!!! For every 1 that pays Tax, 99 do not pay, therefore the IGR is insufficient. Look around your neighbourhood, how many people pay tax there? the bread seller; the maiguard; the barber; the sweet seller and so on. You that pay Tax is the one sustaining the other 99 that dont pay and they keep coming. I have seen hundreds that ran away from North East just hanging around Obalende and parts of Surulere doing nothing but put pressure on existing infrastructure (6) FOI: This is a much misrepresented and misintepreted statement from Fashola. He only stated the letter of the law which exposed a flaw in it and moreso, its an overhyped document which has yeilded less than 0.1% of its efficacy. How should Fashola's statement have been viewed? House of Reps should go back to the drawing board and use Fashola's discovery to tighten the loopholes of FOI, but remember, the Reps are also wary of the FOI bn used against them. Most importantly though, LASG publishes on a quarterly basis the same pieces of info you are using FOI to harrass about but majority of Nigerians are too lazy to research, they would rather make noise and sensationalise. Go here to see how LASG collected and spent your money. http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/DMO_LAW.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/debt_profile_lagosstate.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/mepb/LAGOS_Y2014_Q2_Budget%20Appraisal.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/Y2014Q1Budget%20Appraisal.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/images/pageimages/downloadfiles/docs/Y2013%20HALF%20YEAR%20Appraisal%20MEPB.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/images/pageimages/downloadfiles/docs/Y2014%20BUDGET%20ANALYSIS.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/images/pageimages/downloadfiles/docs/Y2013%20HALF%20YEAR%20Appraisal.pdf http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/images/pageimages/downloadfiles/docs/monthly.pdf[b][/b] 2 Likes 1 Share |

Aloralord1: Look at the threads below. https://www.nairaland.com/1987523/fashola-inspects-combined-high-magistrate/3 ^^^^ Fashola's record. I started this thread detailing Fashola's record and of the village PDP goons lampooned Fashola saying he's overrated while at the same time in the same post claimed his own village governor is a better achiever and he started the thread below to prove it..... https://www.nairaland.com/1989141/achievements-cross-river-state-governor ^^^^...But all the PDP came up with was a few village roads and 1 uncomplicated building. So he said his village governor building village road is a good thing and he's an achiever.. The implication according to these corrupt and unintelligent village clowns is when Fashola build roads, bridges, hospitals, schools and all the things their village governors can not do and never do, he is overrated, but when their village governors build some yeye village road, he's an achiever.... You see how these chinko programmed brain villagers think...lmao. You just got to laugh at their crookedness and idiocy... |

On the other hand, if you have anything to question my facts with, bring it on, I'll debate you with your own sets of facts, but if trolling as usual is all you have, I'll clown and troll you accordingly because you worthless losers mean nothing to me anyways... In fact, when was the last time your village governor built a single classroom or commissioned any project? I'm 100% sure it was in the 1st republic... |

This is to a lesser extent what I tried to pass across in my 'Fashola is not a good as you think' thread. I still believe that Fashola is over hyped and there are hidden demons the APC isn't working on. The spate of building collapses is one part of the failure of govt though to their credit I see them at times. |
