hadura29:
Good idea but don't you feel Fashola is now more of a politician than the technocrat we use to know him as!!!!

Just saying.,,

[s]Am not a Yoruba man, but as a Nigerian we need a progressive government. Buhari should ask Fashola to help him run the government, he seems to be far from reality ( just an advice).[/s]

My brother am an Igbo guy with a deep knowlegde of Economics, the debt of Lagos is nothing considering how much they generate annually. Presently, their dept is propotional to their revenue. If you need data analysis l will gladly do that,thanks.

I didn't vote for Fashola...how many of you voted him in the last election ? Upside down thinking remains the bane of the average Nigerian.

Its ironic that this same Buhari truncated the rule of one the best politicians/technochrats and visionaries - Lateef Jakande. If Jakande was 20 years younger, he'd be my choice. Forget his flop free education schools. This man saw the Lagos we know today 30 years ago.
Who knows where Lagos might have been by now, without the coup of '83.


What has Peter Obi done for Anambra all those years ? Even Obiano seems understand the expectation of his people better than Obi.

The real leaders of Nigeria are yet to surface, but its almost time.

Nigerians will soon end their romance with these opportunist, psuedo-leaders.

Look young man, if you have problems comprehending articles, then complete your education first.
Since when did voting a candidate of one's choice turn crime? So because Barack Obama is of the Democratic party, he should then marginalize the Republicans? I don't want to believe you have a black brain, just been figurative.

Please can someone educate me further on this subject?

Now lets leave Propaganda aside..... I need someone to outline 3 key things fashola did that points to ingenuity

Lagos state has the highest IGR in the country yet resposnible for over 40% of total national local debts
For a state that generates over 40 billion naira monthly from IGR and allocations, Where are the capital intensive projects embarked upon by Fashola's admininstration?
Lagos state is already a commercial hub before Fashola became governor.... how did Fashola improve the commercial attractivesness of lagos?...
What policies aimed at attracted investors was put in place by Fashola?
What jobs were created by Fashola's govt (dont mention Lastma) and how did his govt support the middle class or SMEs?
Fashola fixed roads and planted flowers, so did Sullivan Chime of Enugu, Akpabio of Akwaibom, Kwankwaso of Kano, Peter Obi of Anambra.... etc; what makes him stand out?
Increasing tax rates and imposing levies on okada riders, shop owners etc is no ingenuity for raising IGR.... What exactly did he do?
Does deporting Nigerians in Nigeria and dumping them under a bridge in the wee hours of the morning sound like an act of a sound mind?


As a matter of fact, people like Fashola should not be allowed anywhere close to this current govt. Fashola's understanding of governance only support the elites which is averse to the touted Buhari's govt for the masses.
Fixing an existing road and tolling it is the height of insensitivity..... and the first in Nigeria by a state government. Imagine if every state government follows the Fashola template by tolling roads built using tax payer's money or allocation accruing to a state.... we would have about 25 tolls in akwa-ibom, 20 in enugu, 23 in anambra....etc.
Fashola and Amaechi led the governors to demand and share the Soverign wealth fund which led to crash of our economy
Fashola filed a suit against signing the Freedom of Information Bill in Lagos state

Unfortunately, we Nigerians hardly reason beyond our noses... and that is why propaganda sells
Fashola looked like a performer because he took over from a a failed Tinubu under whom Lagos collapsed.
Fashola is an average politician and not even near a technocrat.
