always rushing to argue trash....
Fashola is not working on any bridge,..he is more concerned about Lagos Ibadan express way....
Fashola uses 2nd Niger bridge to deceive himself not Igbos...
did you read the part that said that about 12billion was voted for that project last year...but no kobo was spent on it...
He used the money to fund Lagos Ibadan express way...
Fashola is a tribalistic bigot, that is not suppose to handle any tin in the central govt.

A true ipobian fanatic who even believes kanus fart is perfum from heaven. i salute ur doggedness.

You people are southern region betrayers....

The SS/SE had a secret meeting at Enugu ....
The excluded you guys because you are betrayals and backstabbers

Nope, ibos were the treacherous being from time memorial and don't try to attach to the SS.

Talk about Zik and Balewa combination in the 60's, Ekuweme and Shagari in the 80's, ibo's thousand man march for Abacha even when they knew Abiola and the Yoruba were fighting against Abacha government etc.

Don't forget that Zik ensured no secession clause was put in our constitution against Awolowo's advice just because he was envious of Awolowo.

Treacherous manipulative weasels, we aint interested in your woes, even your leaders and lawmakers are not interested in your woes as well. You can keep crying us a river.

The truth is always bitter....

Fashola was indirectly annoyed because fund for Lagos Ibadan express way was cut short not because of 2nd Niger bridge....
Since he claim to be conscious of 2nd Niger bridge, why didn't he spent a kobo on it last year...

Lol! And who told you works haven't commenced on the bridge? Dumb osu who think a several mile bridge could be completed as quick as possible like a road. Anyway, the budget for the bridge has now been slashed while your senator did nothing about it! Ntoor! Cry us more river.

There several issues going on here.


1. Fashola is in control of 3 very powerful and rich ministries and for decades, previous ministers manning these ministries always pad their budgets in collaboration with the lawmakers. The lawmakers always approve the padded budgets and in return, the ministries take their own share and award fictitious contracts to fictitious companies owned by the lawmakers, this is classic budget padding and how the ministries team up with the lawmakers to loot on the front and back-end.

2. Now that Fashola is in charge of all 3 ministries and didn't make any provisions for padding, the ministers returned the favor by directly slashing and padding on their own to create room for usual share and padding from the 3 ministries.

3. Sadly, this brand of padding and indirect looting is always a collective effort regardless of the region, tribe or importance of the projects involved, the primary objective is the money and how to pocket their share even if it means denying their own constituents critical projects and government services.

4. Successful Fashola at the state level and the difficulties he's facing at the National level is exposing the rot, incompetence and corruption at the National level.

5. Fashola was successful at the state level because Fashola himself, his lawmakers and cabinet were all on the same page and shared the same vision and interests per the development of Lagos state. He was also able to secure funds and end up building the best bridge in Nigeria, but at the federal level, to build a common bridge in another region is a monumental task because now he must deal with other characters, tribal forces and corrupt institutions full of crooks from other parts of the country and this is the reason why nothing gets done at the federal.


6. This bridge should have been built collectively by the governors in the SE region instead of depending on the FG where nothing gets done and to make matters worse, their own elected officials participate and effectively deny their own people vital projects including the 2nd NB they've been begging for, but they care less because all they have to do and have been doing is point fingers at other people outside their region and also shout marginalization.

Fashola is not the loser here, the losers are the people of SE.


SAD.

Well, they needed to because of the Fulani's threat on the ibos and as you already know, the Hausa/Fulani can't differentiate an ibo from a rivers man or an ijaws..

Anyway, that's how ibo always cause rukus everywhere with their hate speeches and nonsense but when shite hit the fans, they will start looking for support like they did when they plotted the first coup. Yeye.

Fashola is tribalistic yet he raised the alarm over the crooks slashing the budget meant to build a bridge in the erosion ravaged Potor Republic, while the Non-tribalistic brave representatives of Potor Republic people kept mum and shared the spoils of the stupidity of their people. grin grin

Kanu has permanently deactivated the brains of Potopoto people. grin

even if they provide 10000$ billion for the 2nd niger bridge, like in 2016, fashole will not spent a qwobo on the bridge.
he is still looking for money to buy tinubu a new yatch

Yes, that is good. South-East and South-South Senators are happy that the 2nd Niger bridge budget has been slashed, infact they are the one that actually slashed the budget in order to punished Buhari. This is because it is Buhari and his family that will use the bridge.

I disagree with you! Our political reps are the most observant and active. one of them observed there was vacuum in the presidency and actively moved to close the gap with Saraki or op else it can spell doom for us travelling from Abuja to the East.

so all you afonja flatinose no see say fashole did not spent 1kobo of 13 billion in 2016 for the 2nd niger bridge?
why did the savior of the yeebhoes - fashole not spend a kobo on the bridge?





On the second Niger Bridge, whose 2016 allocation, the lawmakers claimed, was not spent and had to be returned, Fashola said, “this displays very stark and worrisome gaps in knowledge of the spokesperson about the budget process he was addressing.’’

According to him, a budget is just an approval of estimates of expenditure to be financed by cash from the Ministry of Finance.

He said that the Ministry of Finance did not yet release any cash for the 2nd Niger Bridge and that no money was returned



That was a lie because there was no money to start with so no money to return.

Stop spewing ignorance.

Tell me one ethnic group that prefer to align with the yoruba in the south...
Even the north...
Buhari had an Igbo candidate for VP in 2003 and 2007...

But your people had no difficulty aligning with Shagari/Ekwueme in the 80's? How about your 10,000 man march for Abacha in the 90's? Lol.

You're so funny, eh.

The truth is Yoruba have always been on the south side unlike the ibos until Jonathan came up with his stupid speech on how ibos were the backbone of his government as well as condoning ibo hate speeches and derogatory remarks as seen by his laughter when chief Arthur Eze called Yoruba people "Amala and Ewedu" people in front him. That stupid Eze even went as far as telling Jonathan to ignore those amala ewedu folks.

To cut the story short, we, the amala ewedu people eventually showed Jonathan who's the stupid one. Even Buhari is quite discreet in his tribal nepotism unlike jonathan, a president laughing with group of people calling one of his nation's people amala ewedu people.
