Let's start from 2016 guys
* Rice


One of the things that brought joy to the faces of Lagos residents, especially towards the year was the LAKE rice initiative.

As the year drew to an end foodstuff, especially rice experienced a price hike. However, earlier in the year, Lagos had partnered with Kebbi state to produce LAKE rice, which was sold for N12,000 (50kg bag); N6,000 (25kg); and N2,500 (10kg).

This made many people quite happy, especially as the recession is hitting hard.

Ambode’s philosophy is that a well lit Lagos will reduce crime. This motivated him to begin the 'Light-up Lagos' project. A lot was schieved as he was able to light up at least 365 streets across the state.

Destroyed almost all roads in Lagos simultaneously and leaving motorist groaning in pains and laguishing in agony of traffic.

Disbanded all refuse collecting agencies while introducing a new agency that doesn't know it's left from its right thereby leaving Lagos in a heap of refuse.

Increasing land use charge by over 1000% while running a quasi elitist government.

Not carrying party members along. Believe it or not, most of the dirt collecting agencies in Lagos are party fsithfuls who are settled with that contract. Disbanding them was akin to starving them.

But what do I know?

Incomplete projects with no plan; blocked all service lanes in and out that section of oshodi - Apapa road so that anyone coming from isolo will get to gbagada before turning. Agege motor way is in ruins, all alternatives are also in ruins.

Which one is Fashola's project again? Is government not a continuum? The Laswa HQ project was commissioned just last week and this government did a large part of the job as well.
Same thing you accuse wailers of doing when they say PDP started those projects Buhari commissioned.

There's a clear difference here.

PMB completed and commissioned PDP's abandoned projects, but this is not only Fashola's project, it was on course and never abandoned, this is Fashola's achievement and you need to acknowledge that.


Give the man his credit for his vision and capacity to dream up the project, for awarding and funding the project.

Nice shots.

Ambode has worked no doubt. However, apart from the dirtier Lagos and lack of transparency on project costs, he seems to have a problem of carrying out unsystematic construction. Doing so much simultaneously thereby creating so much problems for road users on all access routes.
Also, completing the Lagos Badagry road and light rail up to Okoko was supposed to be a priority ahead of BRT construction on Oshodi Abulegba road, airport road, new bus terminals and oshodi interchange.
No sense in building these "luxuries" when people are suffering on that non-motorable road with slow construction since 2010.

Work ongoing Okoko to Badagry? Are you sure?
FG only approved Eric Moore to Okoko for Lagos to handle and toll. Okoko to Badagry is still in control of the FG and I understand it's in the 2018 budget. Fashola said contractors will be mobilised before the end of the year.
