Fashola Accuses FG Of Diverting SURE-P Money by lalasticlala(m): 8:32am On Jan 25, 2015
Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, yesterday, accused the Federal Government of diverting Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme, SURE-P, money for the funding of the campaigns of President Gooodluck Jonathan.

Fashola made the allegation at the All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign rally in Badagry area of the state.

The governor, who took a swipe at the Federal Government for disappointing Nigerians, added: “The money they took for Sure-P is in Sure Pocket, that’s what Sure-P means. It has nothing to do with the people.”

He accused the Federal Government of non-challant attitude, stressing that at a time they ought to have been committed to serving the people. “They were busy doing TAN rallies. They started the campaign one year ago , they were doing Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) rallies instead of serving you.

“They were spending Sure-P money in TAN. If they had used that money to build health centres, highways and prosper your life, the story will be different,’’ Fashola said.

“The person that is campaigning one year ago is now saying no, let us postpone the elections. The game has changed. He has to defend his record. There is no longer sympathy votes. Six years ago, he had no shoes, he has shoes now and we see what he has done with the shoes. He has forgotten the people who voted for him.”

Fashola explained that all over the world, when cities and states build municipal rails the Federal Government support them. “It is only in Nigeria that the Jonathan led government failed to support states that embarked on rail projects,” he stated.

"believing in supernatural causes of evil is unnecessary, men alone are quite capable of every wickedness... (Joseph conrad)"

“In order to move others deeply, we must deliberately allow ourselves to be carried away beyond the bounds of our normal sensibilities” (joseph Conrad)

This is a nairalander's real life experience with the scam called 'sure P',

At least,ASUU made other institutions jealous by attracting the sympathy of the FG with a long strike and then billions of Naira was channeled into the educational sector.

All institutions will keep going on strike until billions are channeled into their accounts but the problem is that the people controlling these institutions will embezzle these funds and still blame the Fg. Why ? Because the citizens prefer to blame the presidency for everything including fighting for their individual rights before these institutions .

Fashola telling us what we already know since 1252BC. I'm very sure Kolade saw the rot and fraud that was SURE-P and that was why he threw in the towel. They brought him in to add some credibility to the fraudulent scheme and hid under his integrity to perpetrate some of the most bizarre acts of stealing ever witnessed in this nation's history.

Jonathan had absolutely nothing before his ascension to power, now he wants the whole world!!! This is really disgusting.

One only needs to take a stroll out to see the kind of destitution most Nigerians live in. Just the other day I was hanging out with a coupla friends, then there came this young lady looking very sickly and stuff. She was begging for alms using a note given her by some doctor (whether it is fake or not I can't tell but her condition suggests it isn't ). She needed drugs, and guess how much it all would cost; just a paltry 15,000 naira!!! My friends and I contributed what we could to help her. And here we have these guys stealing hundreds of millions daily!! My heart aches whenever I think about the gap between the rich and the poor in this country, especially given that the rich rode on the back of the poor to get to where they are!!

Nigeria is a desperately sick country in need of immediate surgery. God help her as she is taken to the operating room on FeBuhari 14th.

ASUU asked for the implementation of a document the FG signed. No new demands just that the FG implements their agreement.

How won't the institutions strike when the see how the FG wastes money. How many aircrafts are in the presidential fleet? And yet we find the need to get another.

The president is paid his salary and yet for some reason we do not know he had to include 1billion for his feeding in the budget. What the hell is that?

If the presidency comes out today and says "we are selling some of the planes in the presidential fleet because we have no money", what will the doctors and court workers do? They will get back to work

It is thanks to State Govts like the one Fashola is heading.

The FG has already implemented the rulings of the Appeal court or is it Industrial courts for its workers. Most State ls have however refused to do so.

He doesn't need to lie to sensibilize the doctors and court workers. The money is there but badly implemented. Remember,being a president doesn't make one omnipotent . We have to learn to follow the budget from federal level down to the local government,that is what accountability is about. You can also trace the salary problems to the aforementioned protocols which every citizen is responsible for.

Look at the fertilizer aspect of agriculture,with e-wallet,every trace of corruption was cut short within 3months. If reelected,softwares and other technological advancement will be applied into the system and corruption will die a natural death.

There are softwares that are in charge of dispensing salaries,our government officials are aware of these things but they intentionally shy away from it because it will eliminate ghost workers and expose embezzlement.

You and I are responsible enough to hold them accountable,let us join hands and enlighten the people around us instead of using them as political tools of mass destruction. Our fathers made mistakes,today we are paying for them, do we blindly repeat the same mistakes and let our children and grand children pay for them ?

By the way, Fashola na scam. He is just saying this to divert attention from ongoing questions on how he has spent his own portion of the SURE-P fund.

The FG receives just 41% of the total SURE-P funds, while most of the rest 51% go to States and las. While we can point at very visible projects that the FG uses its own portion of, smone should tell me what Fashola and most other States have used their own for??

PS: SURE-P (federal) , like You in, is one of the programs of this Gov that has work. Anybody with an opposing view can take me up on this, as long they are also willy to tell me what their State Govts have done with their own portion of the fund

The power you mentioned isnt solely for the presidency but also for the state governors,ministers,house of representatives,local government chairmen and women,counselors,ward representatives etc .

The grave mistakes nigerians have made and are still making is waiting on the president to do everything for them.

Stealing = taking something that doesn't belong to you

Corruption: paying to get what you don't deserve e.g giving money to a govt office holder and in return get a juicy contract.

Stealing is corruption as it is a deviation from the normal society values. Same goes for rape and murder.
