Rest in peace, Papa. No man is perfect; majority of discerning Lagos residents thank God for you; for a soul through whom Babatunde Fashola, the irrepresible administrator, the man of great ideas, the Senior Prefect of all Nigerian Governors, was born. Nothing, not even a controversial social decision, can decimate the worth of your son. God bless your soul. Sincere condolences to the Fashola clan of Isale Gangan, Lagos Island.

Waoh!! You guys are unrepentantly biased!!!!

I truly pity the First Family of Nigeria indeed!!

Funny tho that the people attacking Fashola are not the known Ijaws on this forum but the You-know-whos. Why do u guys love picking fights for no reason?

God is all seeing. Fasola you can lie to men but you can never lie to God. it's a shame your father paid for the sins of your nazi behavior. Blood for a Blood they say. May the Good lord have mercy on Fashola's soul cause him dey God radar.

RIP Fashola's dad. you're probably a Good man that sadly paid for the blood on your sons hand. RIP

On the article, so with all that fashola's paper hype, he still did exactly what all Nigeria politicians does whenever they are sick. hmmmmm. of this was GEJ, PEJ, NOI, or anyone in the FG, we'll never hear word from APC stooges on NL. hmmm

This is exactly one of the things that are wrong with us as a people. It is better to make comments from the position of authority (at least). Never make a comment about a man (or any human being) you do not know one bit. Just express your condolences, or keep shut! I have read some terrible comments from people on Nairaland and elsewhere following this death- from the sadistic to the insane; from the ridiculous to the profane; from the inhumane to the devilish- just because his son took a social decision that was controversial, or just because his son belong to a rival political party...

I had the cause to meet Pa Ademola Fashola (fortuitously, though) between 2008 and 2012 two times in the public arena. One was at the Iponri Central Mosque Surulere and the other elsewhere. I approached the old man and stretched my hands, and bowed a bit (as Yorubas usually do). The old man shook my hands and we exchanged pleasantries. He packed his prayer mat by himself and walked away to his car- no police orderly, no aide, no assistant. On the other instance, years apart, I greeted him and he answered swiftly and stretched out his hands to greet me first. Most people, let alone elites, would restrain theirselves from greeting a complete stranger, especially a Governor's father!

His house off Bode Thomas Street Surulere, the house he lived till he died, was on a street without any trappings of the Governor's father's house. No wonder, Lagos PDP, in spite of the political rivalry with his son, wrote this about him yesterday: "Mr Tunji Shelle, Chairman of Lagos PDP, described the deceased as a patron who related well with others. On behalf of my family and of the teeming members of our party in Lagos State, I express our deep sorrow on the death of Pa Fashola, the beloved father of Gov. Fashola. The late Fashola was simple, focused and a thorough bred Lagosian whose personal character identity was also a reason why the young governor got no pressure from his father.
He was also known to be a silent achiever; it is very sad that Pa Fashola died before his son’s tenure in office ends". That was a honest eulogy from Lagos PDP (politics aside).

That desirable character of Pa Fashola (not applying pressure on his son for dispensing patronage) should remind fair-minded people of the contrast with parents of some politicians who become alternate Governors to their siblings. A particular case in reference was Mama Kalu, mother of Governor Orji Uzor Kalu of Abia State, who wielded so much power that she was called 'Mama Governor General' and the current Governor, Thedore Orji famously called the brand of democracy under Kalu as "Mamacrazy"...Any politician who needed any favour from Orji Kalu would 'camp' at the mother's house. Many got appointments from this direct lobby.

This Pa Fashola trait reminded me of the mother of General Tunde Idiagbon, deputy to General Buhari, whose mother sold kerosine at the family house in Ilorin (Idiagbon Compound) almost till death, even when her son was Nigeria's most powerful and most disciplined deputy Head of State (and in fact the de facto Head of State at the time). The old woman did not leave for Ilorin GRA or elsewhere, and the son did not insist she left...

All said, may God grant Papa's soul eternal rest, and uphold members of the larger Fashola clan.
