Ambode is making the Fashola and his Federal Government look absolutely incompetent.

Imagine a state has constructed more roads than a whole country.

In 2016, Fashola boasted that they have just approved the highest capital expense in our nation's history. He and the finance minister(I cant remember her name) repeated the same nuisance in 2017. Till today we haven't seen any road construction happening despite all the budget allocations.
Ambode on the other hand doesn't even talk. You just go to a new area and you see it has been transformed.

stope deceiving yourself brotherly....Ambode should focus on lagos roads...lagos roads are terribly bad. I don't know why he will abandone laos roads and be chasing federal roads up and down.

Federal roads are more catchy to the eye. Easy for the media to praise sing the governor for a highway project than a dozen other smaller roads within the city

Well, I don't know about that.
Fashola operated in a time of surplus and didn't build as much core infrastructure in 8 years as Ambode who is operating in a time of scarity has built in just 2 years.

Worse still, Fashola's performance at the federal level is as terrible as terror can get!

I don't really agree with that......fashola actually laid d foundation for ambode.

Ambode said so in a recent speech. Its obvious that he's building on the foundation laid by Tinubu and enhanced by Fashola. Broad St/ Marina, BRT, Ikorodu road, clearing of Oshodi, Lekki Ikoyi bridge, ramp at Ozumba Mbadiwe, resurfacing of Western Avenue, link to Alimosho via Ajao Industrial Estate, many new inner roads in Ajegunle, Ikotun/ Egbeda/ Ejigbo/Isolo, new road/ bridge linking Isheri Osun and many more were solid foundations for the new upgrades.

I was surprised once when a driver told me I could get to Idimu/Egbeda from the Island through Surulere without any stress. Beautiful roads all the way! Same with access to Orile via Ijora.

Remember the campaign theme was focused on continuity.

Politics is the reason why that road is an eyesore Fashola wanted to work on it as the Gov of Lag state but the federal Gov being a diff party didn't approve it stating it's a federal project.

Fashola on the other hand, got to Federal level and also repeated the same act. If not for the then Acting President, Osinbajo this wouldn't have been approved.
Re: Lagos Flags Off Reconstruction Of Airport Road by okeamuboy: 10:32pm On Sep 04, 2017
Hello, my friend. Thats not true, Fashola had already presented the states request to the FEC. Ambode was not just ready to wait for the the process of approval to be completed. Dont forget, the federal government would still pay back the money used for the reconstruction to the state. If the FEC does not append their signature, thats money down the drain for lagos state. Imagine if APC is no longer in government beyond 2019. Fashola had already removed that road from the about to be prepared 2017 budget because the state had requested to rebuild the road.

I was on Ore-Shagamu on Friday here. And it's just about 10 km that has been added to what Jonathan left off in 2015.
Aba-PH? Enugu-Onitsha Please naaaaa!! Do you travel at all?

Fashola claimed that previous governments had terrible capital budgets and boasted for 2 consecutive ears that he has obtained the highest budgets ever.
I can run an endless list now on simultaneous roads the previous government ran with the so called meager budgets. Those are the same roads that Fashola took just 20% of and deployed 200% of budgets and yet hasn't moved more than 50km on an of these projects.

Fashola's largest budget was N489 billion.

Ambode's budget for 2017 is N860 billion, almost 2 times Fashola's largest budget.

Okay,let me dash you some sense.
First convert those figures to the prevailing dollar rates of the time.
Ambode----N860 Billion/$310= $2.77 Billion
Fashola-----N489 Billion/$155= $3.15 Billion.

Secondly, and this is very important. The fact that Ambode could budget N860 Billion in a time of rabid recession(actually caused by Fashola's principal, Buhari) is a strong pointer to the fact that grand theft of catastrophic proportions was happening under Fashola's government.

Recession hit allocations from Abuja--- Ambode was not affected.
Recession hit profits(IGR) of private sector-----Ambode was not affected.

That means Fashola must have been getting 3 times what Ambode is getting now but it all went under the radar!!


Same Fashola is now in Abuja without a PR budget and his underside has been exposed!

Ambode has told us the road will be finished in 15 months. Lets bookmark this thread and check back in December of 2018. And I can bet you he will keep his word. Not like Fashola who is still struggling to to add 10 km to roads Jonathan was constructing.

You mean like Fashola finishing all the projects your GEJ and your PDP uncles abandoned right?


Yes, Fashola was able to build bridges and the best bridge in Nigeria in Lagos state in less than 3 years because he did not have to ask for or beg for money from corrupt and incompetent people from other parts of the country called federal lawmakers and we still remember how your type clapped and danced when the same crooks called lawmakers slashed his budget, not you hypocrites are wondering why federal projects are not materializing overnight?


Even with your hypocrite mentality and your enemy of progress uncles at the national assembly, show us the federal projects your uncles completed while in office for 16 years and while you are at it, show us the ones completed by your own governors.

Who grew Lagos state's IGR from N500 million/month to N23 billion/month? Fashola.

Who grew and left the largest state IGR in the history of Nigeria for Ambode to work with? Fashola


You really need to worry more about your poor and backward village for a change because Fashola or Ambode, Lagos remains on the move.

Lagos state has and will continue to have the best IGR in Nigeria for a while and that's because we are a private sector driven economy that welcomes people from all walks of life across the globe. And yes, Lagos will continue to be on the move because here we work hard and build real businessess. The IGR growth is not a function of Fashola. Infact, it is on record that Ambode as Accountant General from 2006-2012 was largely responsible IGR growth in the state.

I think its you who really needs to worry about your village in Osun state because Aregbesola has pillaged the last bones out of you guys. Did you see NBS stats that indicated that your state of Osun got by far the lowest income of any state in Nigeria over the last 6 months?

Of what relevance is IGR if you don't have the means, capacity, and comprehensive collection system in place to collect and enforce payment?


Sadly for you and your weak intellectual curiosity, having potential is quite different from acting and actualizing the potential.


Potential did not grow the IGR from N500 million/month to N23 billion, it was accomplished because of human action, Fashola's executive competence and his sense of duty and purpose.


And even if Osun was my village, I'd be very very happy because Osun state achieved and delivered more projects than your entire backward region combined and if you are bold enough to compare what your entire region delivered with Osun state, let's do, but I KNOW YOU WON'T ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE COWARDS.
