I can see no change in this government. I condemn this endorsement, I condemn it, I condemn it,
Both Fashola and Amaechi will never sail through.
I will rather wail to eternity than see these two criminals become ministers.
We will mobilize the Nigerian youths on a massive protest.
Nonsense

OK I done read em so watin una want me to talk

Tinubu had no choice than to support Fashola because it would have been a disgrace to him. Saraki had a plan, he knows Fashola aren't Tinubu's candidate, PDP intention was to approve Fashola nomination irrespective of the Lagos senators approval. To avoid public disgrace, Tinubu order is senators to support Fashola so that gullible people will think Fashola is one of is candidate. We all know tinubu submitted Wale Edun and this other puppet, Buhari himself pick Fashola against Tinubu's nomination. What a disgrace to Lagos APC after publicizing fake allegations against the candidate that gave them much popularity. Who gain? Fashola ofcourse, and Tinubu is the loser because Fashola and Fayemi will NEVER be a puppet again, they will only be loyal to that man with many cows in Daura.

Happy to hear that, ride on BRF

Oya o wailer, start spewing trash.... the way the news go be for their body, it will be like punch from both left right and center...

Former governor of Lagos state, Babatunde Raji Fashola has secured the nomination of the three senators from the state.

Senators Oluremi Tinubu, Solomon Adeola and Gbenga Ashafa approved the nomination of the former Chief of Staff of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Fashola was the Lagos State Governor from May 29, 2007 to May 29, 2015. As a candidate of the Action Congress party, now known as the All Progressives Congress, Fashola succeeded Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on 14 April 2007, and was sworn in on 29 May 2007. He was re-elected on 26 April 2011.

He was called to the Nigerian Bar as a solicitor and advocate of the Supreme Court of Nigeria in November 1988 after completing the professional training programme at the Nigerian Law School, Lagos which he undertook between 1987 and 1988

* Four years ago, with plenty fanfare, our former gomina (governor) waka go Toronto for inspect and buy aloku scrap metal trains =>

AUGUST 10, 2011

The Lagos deal would be the first of its kind for the TTC. Decommissioned cars are usually sold for scrap metal and can fetch up to $1,500 dollar each. While Ross declined to discuss specific figures, he says the sticker price for Lagos is "significantly more" than scrap prices, putting the potential profits to the TTC in the millions of dollars.

It is not unusual for technology from western nations to end up in poorer countries. Marketplaces in Africa and Asia are flooded with North American clothes, computers, and even cars, but the purchase of larger technology like trains is rarer.

The cars will have to be significantly refurbished to fit existing infrastructure in Lagos, and some Nigerian media reports have lamented that the government appears to have settled on "tokundo," or used, trains instead of brand new vehicles.

Although half the cars are more than 30 years old, Ross is adamant they are perfectly safe and are only being decommissioned for capacity reasons. But he also admitted the TTC is not required to make sure the cars meet any safety standards before selling them.

"Once sold, it's up to the new operator to ensure they are in good working order," he said. "They do need to be maintained much more frequently than the new trains, simply because of their age. At some point they will run out their useful life."

Murtaza Haider, director of the Institute of Housing and Mobility at Ryerson University, said the age of the cars is definitely a cause for concern.

"We should be ensuring that there is some service life left in these vehicles and we're not going to be playing havoc with the lives of those who would ride these vehicles," Haider said. "There's metal fatigue, and that metal fatigue could result in dangerous conditions. I would be paying a close watch on this for the next ten years to see how many accidents do happen in Lagos."

* In January 2013, i.e. some two years after the Toronto visit, our "excellent" former governor said the trains will be ready by June, i.e. five months after the unsolicited statement, based on his inspection & assessment of work done so far at the time =>

Lagos light rail’ll be ready in June – Fashola
JANUARY 9, 2013

The Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola on Tuesday said the first phase of the state Blue Light Rail project would be completed by June this year(2013).

He expressed confidence that Lagosians would start enjoying the services of the lrail project immediately.

The first phase would run from Marina and terminated at Okokomaiko area in Ojo Local Government.

Fashola spoke during an inspection of ongoing projects in the state which took him and his cabinet members to Orile-Iganmu, Alimosho and Ejigbo areas among others to assess the level of works being done by contractors.

The governor, who inaugurated the trackwork of the blue light rail at Alaba Suru, Coker-Agunda Local Council Development Area, said the level of work on the road and those of the National Theatre and Alaba-Mile 2 rail stations, would ensure early completion

He said, “In order to finish the project, the contractor did not go on vacation during the festive period. This will ensure that the project is delivered on time for the use of Lagosians.

* Last year, our fine-boy-no-pimples former Misita Gomina confessed he had already spent a whopping sum of N160 billion on the light rail that was supposed to be in use since June 2013. Depending on the exchange rate he used that could be $1 billion to $1.2 billion spent

He, therefore, explained that the state government already “has in place, strategies to repay the loan. The federal government was in the know of the state’s decision to take the bond and it approved it.”

He added that the truth “is that what they do not also say is that no state in Nigeria can borrow money outside, from any multilateral agencies without the approval of the federal government.

“What they did not say is that they approved it. No state can raise money by bond the way we have done without the federal government’s approval. Both SEC and NSE are all federal regulatory agencies through which we must pass. If they said okay, it means there must be something good about the debt.

When is the light rail going to be delivered, the project seems to be going on for years?

I just said it, it’s being funded by Lagos State and the Federal Government support is not there. But I believe strongly that we will create a financial restructuring that will allow us to deliver that light rail within the next 18 months.

That is the major reason why Tinubu is a politician, he knows when to sheath the sword and in life u can't always have your way which is the reason why Saraki is having problems today(winner takes it all in Nass election) mind you Fashola cannot rewrite history that he was a product & protege of Tinubu school of progressive politics, we disagree to disagree sometimes and Can you tell me the reason why the Kwara nominee was from Tinubu inner caucus(Lai Mohammed) at the expense of your almighty saraki, he hired protesters against the nomination but was dead on arrival. Take it or live it the whole Fashola Saga might even be a conspiracy between the 2 men & Tinubu is powerful and influential haters

You do not know anything about how politics is played, you just seat down and formulate ideas on your phone, fashola and fayemi's ministerial appointment are still tinubu's gain, also what tinubu is trying to do is create a new set of national figures so as to broaden his political machinery, hence his trying to nominate people other than fashola and fayemi, this names however do not make him the loser. And for those of you saying wale edun was nominated for lagos state, edun is an indigene of Ogun state.

Good news 4 d progressives and a heart attack 4 d wailers.

Please what is progressive about Lagos state that scored 14% in a critical sector such as education with only 2,000 government schools out of 14,000 Yet there are many children roaming the streets instead of being in schools!
That is being RETARDED and a recipe for societal rot & chaos.
