Pls this thread is not about Fashola.

Let me say for instance; Gov. Fashola of Lagos state, some people believe he's too close to Tinubu and Tinubu is he godfather. But to me i believe during the time of Late president Yara'dua he has a godfather and he did wonderfully. To me i believe GEJ also have some godfather which we can traced back to OBJ and he's trying his best also.
Even this godfatherism we are talking about we can see it at the state level to local government level.

My question now is can anyone hold a political post in Nigeria without the help of godfatherism

What is your view or do you really believe in godfatherism

Godfatherism has been the bane of Nigerian politics. It stiffles meritocracy and encourages mediocrity. Yes some "elected" officials with godfathers have distinguished themselves, eg Fashola, but our electoral process should be free of manipulations from people with vested interest, for the good of all
