Mind your sef.

It's easy to make promises just to please people, do you think you'll just get there and uproot existing establishment, nah! It doesn't work that way.

This was exactly what Ambode did with the waste management system already in place. By disrupting the system, the powers that be frustrated the new system he put in place and ensured he wasn't given a 2nd term ticket.

Governance is more than grammar and manifesto. You need to be a team player and street-wise as well.

Unfortunately, this GRV guy isn't street wise.
He's bookwise but not street wise IMO.

Why wasn't the state getting all that money before the alpha beta contract was signed?

Lagos has alot of opportunities
You can't compare port Harcourt with bayelsa despite all the oils
Read more of economic history of west Africa and Nigeria

This one dey play ni,after presidential election you think you'll win GOOD LUCK BRO

The Alpha Beta 5 billion would actually cover the 60k minimum wage of about 83, 000.0 workers every month

azpekuliar:


The first step to doing that is cutting waste. The N5bn a month to Alphabet will go some way to achieving that.

Yes they are, all the money collected from the buses are remitted to the lagos state government

So the money we give to the agberos that they send to the govt are MC oluomo taxes?? Money from my pocket is agbero tax?? Omo nawa o🤣🤣. So my hard earned money given to driver to give to remit part of it to agberos isn't my tax but its agberos' taxes. So indirectly, my money is not mine but for the agberos and they can come collect it at anytime since its theirs...I have heard you

You didn't give any money to any driver for free, you paid for a service of moving you from one place to another, the money is no longer yours but the driver own.

The driver pays a fee( tax) from his own money to the transport union, the money is colled by the union tax collector( agbero) the agbero through their boss ( mc olomo) remit to the government. That is how government generate income from transport buses using government roads and bus park.

Do not be decieved.

Account general can only tell you what the APC Governor and Tinubu orders him to say.

Lagos is way too rich that they can pay 100k as minimum wage.

If he becomes the Governor, his government will be the one to allocate it.

It's unrealistic, he said 1st 100 days

I have a vision for a new Lagos
Here is my action plan for the first 100 Days in office.

1.0
Increase Minimum Wage to N60,000 on Day 1 in Office, the salary of Civil Servants will be increased by 100% to N60,000 monthly. The target is to reach N100,000 as soon as possible. This will cover everybody including street sweepers.

2.0
Moral suasion to persuade the Organised Private Sector to follow Govt's lead by stopping casualisation and also increase their minimum wage to a living wage. Banks, telcos, oil companies, multinationals, large national corporates, etc will be incentivised with PAYE tax credits to stop casualisation and index their minimum wage to their capacity to pay rather than current market wage rates which are suppressed by high unemployment. A first step for a Lagos where every worker has health care, pensions and similar benefits.

3.0
Cancel Alpha Beta's Contract which costs the State N5bn monthly.

4.0
Use the savings from the cancellation of Alpha Beta contract to set up a grand Loan Scheme for Micro, Small and Medium Scale Enterprises. Ensure at least 10,000 beneficiaries in the first 100 Days. We expect the scheme to benefit up to 1m beneficiaries in 4 years.

each appointee being skilled enough to be a potential Governor.

16.0
Set a date for Local Government elections.

18.0
Issue Guidelines for markets to operate autonomously and appoint their own Iyalojas and Babalojas.

19.0
Release Guidelines for a new waste management system for separating waste to paper, plastic and organic from homes; a first step towards a world class system for turning waste into biogas and fertilizer.

You still don't get it...while paying money to taxi drivers and those danfo drivers, tax is part of it..its service plus tax included. I pay to the driver, driver pays to agbero, agbero remits some to the govt and uses the rest to sleep with their celebs.. point is tax is part of the money I pay. The govt that even gets the remitted money don't even use it to do anything tangible hence the bad roads and poor services

Dapagun:
2. The only way companies can increase their wage bill is if they earn more. If they don't earn more how will they be able to afford more for their workers? You said this will happen on the second day. Does this man have a magic wand somewhere?

Na sakamanje

thebosstrevor1:


It cant be done.

You mean literally almost half of the budget will go into paying salaries.

How about inflation due to the increase in salaries.

Wherd is he going to generate the money needed for the increment in salaries

Lol....like the way lesser circulation of cash has reduced inflation too?

Echoban:


Nothing is great abt the manifesto. More like a textbook candidates. Increase minimum wage to 60k. Where he wan see the money,? He forget Lagos is also servicing debt.

Cancel alphabetal, just like that? Because he heard they take 5B. He didn't tell us how the company is mobilising fund for lasg , it's easier to use those fantasy to captivate genZ .

Weren’t the toll gates put there as part of the PPP in constructing the roads?

If so, who’s going to pay for the funds used in constructing the roads and bridges? And is this even legally possible?

This guy sniffs too much cocaine from Colombia hence he’s always blinking. He needs to slow down and realise that he doesn’t have the answers.

But I do agree with him on Alpha Beta to an extent. You can’t scrap it since the company does it’s does. However, the percentage should be negotiated and reduced to 2/3%.

Please, what made you arrive at this conclusion?
Have you worked with him or know anyone who worked with him?

The guy is saying unrealistic things.... Its impossible to achieve all he said in even a year in office, so how will he achieve them in 100 days. If he isn't a fraud why would he say such?
He wants gullible lagosians to fall for his deceit but I'm happy most are awake and know his promises are unrealistic

DeJoeee:
For those asking how he is going to generate the money.
Cancelling the conduit pipes through which the god father's are paid with Lagos money is enough to achieve all this.
Many people don't know how much the state spends in running and maintaining the corrupt political structure in Lagos.
That's why they were making mouth with structure because they know how much they have invested now OBI have proved to them that structure is useless.

Kip quite.. go and advice Ikpeazu.. Gbadebo or Chinedu as e may be called can't win and will never become a Gov...

So, rest. The guy is too daft with daft supporters

This comic political apprentice really has plan to scatter Lagos..... Just opened his mouth and talk whaaaaa

Dapagun:
These one does not understand both politics and governance and is most likely going to cause more problems than solve them.

This is the person they are touting for governor? He can't even manage a local government with this ideas of his

You're the clueless one.
Lagos State without the waste has the financial clout to make minimum wage even higher than 60k per month. Go figure!

manutdrichie:


So what is the meaning of supplementary budget?

supplementary budget is an extra cash incase we overspend our budget.... it's not meant to be added to the budget and is usually 30% of the budget.....you also can't dig into it unless the state house members agree......also does he know how many Workers are under the government employ that he is promising them money ? Those in Alausa alone will consume the entire budget for Lagos state in a year as salary if you intend to pay them that much.....and sources of funding like the toll gate which integrate with other businesses like Advertising that generates billions of Naira for the state and sustain local investments is to be brought down.......We know Lagos is prosperous but you can't be bringing down our sources of funding and ve promising to spend more.......

peoplewww:
If only he can do what he says, this one might become president one day. However I feel he should extend the minimum wage law to include the private sector. Any job at all. Enforce it en toto. All governorship aspirants or governors in Nigeria, come and see your mate ooh. This one is firing from all cylinders. Fire on brother. Nigeria is not coursed.

lol good luck get private sector to follow you.....people that are already battling inflation you now want to them to increase their minimum wage payments.......Joke.....all you will do is create unemployment cause if you force them, the first thing that will happen is job cuts........

Mitsurugi:



What is the job of the LIRS? Dude if only you knew how Lagos is being milked you won't talk. My sister worked there before moving on to the FIRS. I am better informed. Alpha Beta is a scam

lol you really think LIRS has the manpower for that ? Or that Alpha beta is the only tax consultancy company we have in the state? When you start attacking The tax consultancy sector in the state how well do you think your finances will run?

azpekuliar:


The first step to doing that is cutting waste. The N5bn a month to Alphabet will go some way to achieving that.

lol for your Mind 5 billion can cover the salary bill he wants to generate......🌽😁

My brother. Government does create jobs. Just know that. Nigeria's labour force is about 80 million. Can you create 80 million jobs if you were made president today. See, listen. Pay attention!. Call these guys to the table. Washington DC does it all the time. Reason with them give them some waivers. They equally want to make money. And the only way they can make money is to get people to do the work abiii? They need labour. So they have to play by the law. Boom!. You can't come here and pay people peanuts. If I was president, the dangotes will pay Nigerians more!. Someday you'll become a slave if the system stays the way it is. Got it?.

It's point 2 and not second day. PAYE tax credits is not a magic wand but workable. Little advice, read again but this time slowly and comprehensively. Thank you.

Dapagun:
1. You can't increase salary without budget considerations. Have you spoken with the Accountant General, Finance Ministry, is there budgetary allocations for this? Does this person understand governance in anyway?

you will not question the one that goes to Tinubus pocket. The only one you will question is the one that will benefit workers.

Wonderful post!

However, his real and underpinning motives remain largely unclear, ambiguous and ulterior.

He is benefitting from the current political sand-storm in the midst of a lot of unnecessary ethnocentric, psychological games and image-laundering.

The LP Lagos Guber Candidate is currently on the Board of Al Huda Nigeria Limited and Delta International Commercial City Asaba (DICCA) in Delta State. A company owned by his father Olawale Rhodesvivour. The true corporate and operational status of this company remains unknown till this very moment. His father is not the former Supreme Justice Bode Rhodesvivour. All of these are embedded in the links below.

https://dailytrust.com/delta-signs-mou-for-asaba-commercial-city-project/
http://www.blanknewsonline.com/delta-govt-signs-mou-for-delta-commercial-city-project/

Now, few questions:
1. Has the LP Lagos Guber Candidate resigned from the positions held in these private business concerns?

2. If Yes, can he publish officially his resignation letters and Board Resolutions reflecting the same?

3. If Yes also, why is he leaving such an important project that can exponentially transform Asaba, Delta State to run for Governor in Lagos State at this opportune moment?

4. If No, how does he intend to manage his public office portfolio as Executive Governor of a state like Lagos and private portfolio as an Executive Director in a private construction company faraway in Asaba, Delta State without breaching ethics of corporate governance?

5. On the Delta Commercial City Project in Asaba, what is the current status of this project considering that it was launched since 2016?

6. Can the LP Lagos Guber Candidate maximize this to showcase his track-record and performance in result-orientation, consistency, public service delivery and project completion drive?

7. Simply put, is it an ongoing or abandoned project? Any evidence or proof of performance/ success? If he can not transform Asaba, how can he transform Lagos?

8. Where has the finance for the project been coming from or will be coming from in future? Any audited financial reports to prove accountability and sound managerial ethics?

9. Why did he not foremost prioritize and consider designing and implementing this kind of project for the benefit of Lagos and Lagosians considering the drive to turn Lagos into a megacity?

10. Has the LP Guber Lagos Candidate done a verifiable Assets/ Net Worth Declaration?

11. Point no. 15.0 on "Working with Labour Party to appoint first-class caretaker Chairmen for each Local Govt, each appointee being skilled enough to be a potential Governor".
a) Is this not a clandestine attempt at re-establishing and re-entrenching a neo-godfatherism (new form of god-fatherism) masquerading as sustainable succession planning for LP candidacy?
b) Based on what criteria will the appointees be screened and chosen?

These are real issues about character, competence, capacity and credibility that the Lagos LP Guber ought to be engaged upon to duly address and clarify.

Enough of the flowery semantics and sentimental merry-go-rounds.

Let's hope the unnecessary and toxic dust of tribalism and ethno-centricism can settle for this to occur in the appropriate quarters and channels.

The hopes and destinies of Lagos and true Lagosians hang in the balance.
