I don't know why people find it difficult to come to terms with the truth. Fashola is working my foot. Maybe he would've done better if people like B A T are not hanging around. Lagos is in serious debt that's a fact. These guys borrow money in the state's name to execute projects that have been awarded to their company, the revenue generated from these projects enter their pockets while the debt is in the name of lagos state.

Please lets face the fact, since this second administration what has Fashola achieved. These people are busy hoarding money for themselves.
I pray that another party takes over come 2015 then fowl yansh go open, all their atrocities will come to limelight. Tinubu will run away from naija.

How come, despite being the most populous, the state is about the most peaceful?

If with N20bn, Lagos still manages to get by and provide infrastructure for about 20millon people, please tell me what the FG is doing with over N160bn monthly for over 160million Nigerians

CACOL is just trying to seek for cheap publicity. Even a blind man knows Fashola is working. Whether he is overhyped or not, as far as Lagos is concerned he is the best governor the state ever had.

Don't mind the hypocrites, debt is now a good thing because it involves Fashola. If it was the president or an Igbo governor, the story would have been different.

If you are smart enough, you'd know that such distortions would also exists as nations are in different stages of development and therefore needs. However, once you check the trend you would see that the more developed, the more debts.

Or does Panadol cure all headaches everytime? That it doesn't at one or two particular instances, does it make it not a pain killer?

Re: Fashola's Performance Is Overblown – CACOL by mapet: 9:22am On Aug 16, 2013
@ Atlantic,

Thank God we have cerebral people like you to educate lots of misguided youth today. Are we "brain-lazy" or what. Someone made allegations without numerate and empirical databased evidence to back up his claim, yet contradicted himself in the same piece, and then many people here are gullibly dropping submission of little or no value.

There is the reasoning in some quarters that many of us have exhausted our reasoning capacity along with the energies we spend in criticizing that we later turn out no good and in no capacity to think innovatively on how to better the situation.

It's not secret that Fashola is the best governor in the country. Even a PDP governor publicly acknowledged this, his desire to learn from Lagos and the need for other governors to follow suite.

Critical question. The cost of developing infrastructure is not cheap, much more a qualitative one. But the most important thing Fashola has demonstrated is that you don't need to be a "politicial juggernut" to deliver. Just be visionary, innovative, action-oriented and provide good leadership.......raise to good team and get to work.

Eko Atlantic:

It's baffling the way some people just open their mouth and vomit trash. He claimed that 'he and his team have not come to any conclusion as regards how much money had been spent on infrastructure', but they concluded that Lagos gov's performance is overblown.
Then why must he open his mouth when they haven't gotten any meaningful stat. or document that proves Lagos gov's performance is overblown?
The funny part is when he used "may be" cheesy
What kind of anti-corruption agency uses words full of uncertainty?
The desperation of some jobless nigerians is getting abnormal. GEJ better get them a sure-P job.


I'm hearing this one for the first time o. cheesy

I said it earlier that one day the truth will begin to manifest. If the monthly internally generated revenue that accrues to Lagos State can be given to other poor states, those Governors will become demi-gods. Fashola and Tinubu are looting Lagos State dry but sentiment won't allow some people to see the truth.

Akainzo:

Please SHOW PROOF of this your assertion, any proof at all. So LASU lecturers and workers were living off what in that 17 months (1 Year 5 MOnths) and didn't cry out to the world. You are indeed the depth of falsehood.

Because you asked for it (sounds like some old TV programme)

Idris also alleges that though the university owes lecturers and non-academic members of staff 17 months salary arrears, it has failed to engage in dialogue with the union on how the debt would be paid. He explains that the state government agreed to pay 50 per cent of the arrears, while LASU should pay the remaining 50 per cent. The state government, he says, “has honoured its own part of the deal while the management has offered to pay 20 per cent alongside our July salary, but they are not saying anything about how to pay the rest and we told them that we should meet on this. So far, they have refused to meet with us.”

On this, Fosudo, who describes himself as a member of ASUU, says the 20 per cent has been paid on Friday, together with the July salary, adding that the remaining would be paid soon. Idris confirms this but insists that the method adopted by the management is faulty.

“You cannot stop your employer from crediting your account, but what we are saying is that before part of the arrears were paid, we ought to have met to discuss how the remaining part would be paid. But they didn’t discuss anything with us. Anyway, our position is that the money must be paid this year and in two instalments,” Idris notes.


I posted the link for the above story from Punch earlier:

and wonder why we can't simply and LEARN more about issues we are concerned about

Please note that Dr. Sola Fosudo is the Acting Director, Centre for Information, Press and Public Relations of LASU while at the same time lecturer and Head of Theatre Arts Department.
That is to say Mr. Fashola's LASU is contributing to Nigeria's unemployment by doubling up functions for unpaid lecturers in a school he inherited so that he and his cronies can have more money to steal.

Things have changed since then. Population in Lagos has exploded, the urban sprawl is far larger, the social problems encountered are now immense, Slums are more and far larger, corruption is now a giant in the system, people are far more lawless, the decay of lagos has been on-going for up to 30years before he took over....Why won't he struggle??

Why


You're smarter than that.
If this is an attempt to patronise and/or bribe me, no need trying.
Just tell Fashola that he has less than two years to RIGHT the mediocrity that he has passed on as excellence for more than six years so far. Particularly on free and COMPULSORY education for ALL Lagos children whose parents cough up the 60% IGR in his budget.
Understandably, he may not be able to do much in that period on potable water provision as well as feeder roads since he and his oga on the top have watsed 14 solid years doing very little in these sectors

Ask most of the idiots criticizing, how much it takes to construct a KM of road.
They can't tell you.
One thousand naira sounds like plenty money to a beggar on the street.
N 1,000,000, 000 is $ 6, 250, 000 dollars
Most of what is needed for development are imported.
Meaning more naira.
A $35000 Toyota Car is about N 6, 000, 000.

That is why some fool think #20, 000,000, 000 is so much for a state like Lagos.

Debo, go get a serious job and contribute in taxes because Lagos need more revenue to develop place they are yet to touch.

Over a 1000 public schools,many of whom contain children of economic refugees from other state who have been discarded .
An extensive network of roads,bridges and drainage which has to be consistently and frequently maintained.

Lagos downhill spiral started in the 70's with mass migration of every Tom dick and Harry from the east.
The wear and tear is a function of that explosion.
No amount of spending will turn it around unless there is a mass movement of people back to their states.

stop being disingenous with your frivolous use of information out of context.

1. The issue of 17month backlog was a fallout of monies being owed when lecturers went on strike in the past.
2. Facts even from the report stated clearly that as soon as was agreed, Lagos State Government clearly fulfilled their part of the bargain
3. The Lecturers' grouse is the fact LASU management's unilateral decision to split it's own share of the 50% contribution

Some of these ediots are so ready to lick Mr Fashola's butt even if he export all their tax money abroad..

I'm not surprised these anti-sensible delusional I-go-die-for-Mr fashola are already blaming the slow infrastructural growth on the influx of non-indigenes as if the Mr Fashola is not responsible for the collection of taxes from ALL dwellers..

Some of these ignoramus eko-oni-baje-oba je ti follow follow have never stepped out of Ojota & Okomaiko yet they see ALL other governors as non-performing.... These are governors they do not even know their names..

Talk of visible, viable & all round 'edible' testimonies in terms of economic growth, infrastructural development, electrification, scholarship, bursary, employment, etc. in states like JIGAWA, KANO etc..

gosh...
Please can someone kindly tell Fashola's congregation that people have been moving into Lagos since 1970s..
Fashola is not the reason for the population
People have been going in and out of Lagos for business even before the induction of "our" Frog eyed calibres taliban..
