This guy have stopped seeing himself as governor and have not recovered from the lost of the primary election . Apart from iyana paja bridge and road in his home town what other project have this guy completed in his over three and years in office ,Lagos have become dirtier ,the traffic in Lagos state have increased ,the tax is very high now ,potholes are seen all over in Lagos . If Fashola performed the same way will he a governor .

Don't forget the two jubilee bridges among the lots of projects Ambode completed so fast!!! I still respect him more than Fashola and Thief-nubu combined!

The guy Ambode no do well at all. I learnt he finally sent notification for budget presentation after Xmas. The letter sef is full of errors starting from the date showing Dec 2019 and lot of grammatical errors.

Governor don tire am I think!

This news is just laughable. Let's look at this critically. Why should ambode present a budget for another person?
We should have a budget system such that you present a budget that covers your service year only.

No body should quote me jare... We Lagosians will meet at the polls. We are not interested in APC online militancy.

Fashola was and is still a very tribalistic arrogant man. Not surprised cos the average Yoruba person loves Yoruba tribalists more than anything. They worship them. They hate broad-minded, nationalistic people of their own stock like OBJ and Fayose.

Ambode was 10 times better than that arrogant man.

Of what use is presenting a budget he would not overdee

Without Fashola, Ambode won't have got there.

Governance in Lagos is beyond Works (bridge and road construction), which unfortunately was the highlight of his administration.

What of IPPs, water plants, general hospitals, HOMS etc

Who early presentation of budget help as if there is any correlation between timely budget presentation and delivery in this part of d world.

Early presentation is a big KEY for economic analysts and it aid a struggling economy if implemented on time with wisdom

We have sent him home to go meet his uncouth wife. The fat big headed thieving megalomaniac presented over 1trillion Naira budget for 2018, all we can see are uncompleted substandard projects like the Abule-Egba to Oshodi confused road, the Agege frustrated slow pace never ending bridge, the useless airport road and others. The Lagos-Badagary light rail which his predecessors were working on has also been abandoned or slowed down by the ugly black thief.

If any Flattino comes here to say any nonsense, I will ask Fashola to come and abduct you and dump you at Upper Iweka Bridge Head at 2AM as he did the last time. I know you will still jump into the next available trailer taking cows to Lagos. If you love the fat ugly black megalomaniac Ambode so much, go and make him governor of Imo State, I am sure he is better than the Sculpture making clown currently there.

what do "Igbos" have to do with anything?

What's wrong with you lot?

A day to the end of 2018, Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode is yet to present the 2019 Appropriation Bill of the fifth largest economy in Africa to the State House of Assembly. The 2019 budget, the last to be presented by Ambode, is the most delayed by any Lagos State governor in over a decade.

Ambode presented the 2018 budget on December 11, 2017, about 20 days to the end of the year. The 2018 budget, the biggest the state had ever presented, was the second largest state budget in Nigeria. The 2018 budget came far late to the 2017 budget, which he presented November 29, 2016, about 32 days to the end of the year, while 2016 budget was presented December 17, 2015 about 14 days to the end of the year 2015.

His predecessor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola prepared and presented eight budgets. He started with the 2008 budget estimate of N403bn, which he presented on December 17, 2007, while the 2009 budget of N405bn was presented on November 10, 2008 while 2010 budget estimate of N430bn was presented on November 17, 2009.


On December 13, 2010, Fashola presented the 2011 budget estimate of N445.2bn while the 2012 N485bn budget was presented on November 14, 2011. This was followed by the 2013 N497bn budget presented on October 31, 2012 while the 2014 N489.6bn budget was presented on October 30, 2013. The last budget Fashola presented was the N489.75bn 2015 budget, which he presented November 24, 2014.

With the 2018 budget hitting the N1tr mark, it is also expected that the 2019 budget would not go below the 2018 Appropriation Act. This means, it will require more scrutiny and verification in the State Assembly, yet the budget is not yet presented, a day to the end of the year.

It took just about 35 days for the Lagos State Assembly to put its authority behind the N812b 2017 budget, which to some analysts must have been done in a rush, with no due diligence and about 51 days to put its authority on the N1.046t 2018 budget.

With the budget expected to be, at least, at par with the 2018 budget or bigger, it is expected that the Assembly should take not less than 35 days to consider the budget including public holidays, which means that the budget could only be made ready in February, 2019 at most. It might even take a longer time compared to the 35 days it took to pass last year’s budget. This is because almost all the lawmakers would be campaigning to return to the Assembly, which might limit the time to look into the budget.

A few states have presented their 2019 budgets and have even signed them into law, but stakeholders feel Lagos should have been among the first to do so, being the biggest state economy in Nigeria. The state should be ahead of other states in planning for its robust civil service.

Ranked as the fifth largest economy in Africa, there are fears that a delayed budget may also slow down the execution of the projects carried out by the government, as funds may not be released early. This, it is argued, might rub off negatively on the economy of the state though largely driven by the private sector.

The Guardian, however, learnt politics is part of the reason the budget has not been ready, as the executive and the legislature are said not to be on the same page.

The source said the overbearing influence of the legislature on state activities has made the executive to buy time in presenting the budget, as presenting the budget after the APC primaries could further heat up the state policy, which was seen in some of the pronouncements made by the Assembly after the primaries.


According to the source, the Assembly seems to be enjoying some support from the party leaders in the state, who are using it to check the power and influence of the governor.

The source buttressed his claim with the letter written by the immediate past Commissioner for Energy and Mineral Resources, Wale Oluwo, who resigned from the party recently.

In his letter, he alluded to the use of an arm of government by a powerful block in the party to intimidate institutions of government.

Attempts to get the state government to explain the delay were not fruitful. The Public Relations Officer of the Ministry of Economic Planning and Budget, said it was only the governor that could give reasons the budget had not been presented. After not being able to communicate with the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Kehinde Bamigbetan on phone thrice, a text message was sent to him and he acknowledged receiving the text, promising to respond. Since Tuesday that he promised to respond, he had not.

Ambo, no mind them o. After all, what have got to loose. Dont go and present any budget that will be used against you o. save yourself, afterall they claim you incompetent and they know better but the only thing that drives them is their greed for power, so dont be afraid. dont be a coward, people will say all sorts afterall.

The only good you can do for Lagos now is to ensure that Lagos is placed in competent hands and not some power mongerers, if you get my gist o.

Ambo wants to give them a parting gift of the first LASG shut-down in modern history, a la Trump.

Remember he was Accountant-General once upon a time and knows exactly how ALL the cash flows.

He is just trying to give the next Governor a rough start.

Ur head dey there��️�

The budget passes through 3 phases in Lagos. After compilation, it is sent to Tinubu who then sends to the State Assembly after his own additions. It is delayed cos Tinubu wants to over inflate the budget in guise to sponsor both Buhari and Sanwo-olu's campaign. But let's watch event's unfold between Jagaban and Ambo since he also wants to pack his own before retirement from the state house what a time to be Ambode Lagos truly needs to be freed.

Environment is zero under Ambode. Smoking trucks, a plethrora of pot holes, refuse heaps, uncompleted projects, air pollution and unnecessary traffic caused by Danfo drivers are regular features of Lagos now. These are things Fashola could not condone during his tenure.

LASTMA and all other agencies have gone to sleep. Traffic at Ajah is still a nightmare and extending beyond VGC to Chevron Toll gate due to intentional neglect.

Ambode should not make Lagos worse for Sanwo-Olu by still brooding over his loss at the primaries thereby neglecting the well being of Lagosians till May 29. It is better for him to step down immediately rather than putting Lagosians through further agony till May 29th.

He ought to do his best regardless and posterity would judge him kindly.

I thought Tinubu selects the best. Now you are singing praises for sanwo olu that has zero political history simply because Tinubu annoited him. You see why nigerians must reject Osinbajo 2023? You can continue putting feather weights in offices bigger than their capacity but keep your madness in your enclave.

hope we no go hear budget padding or missing from Lagos this time?... let me seat down and watch the outcome of the budget

make una no worry e go present am tomorrow Monday.

Ambode constructed the Jubilee bridge at Abule egba,which has
eradicated traffic holdup from that axis. He is currently
constructing network of roads within Abule egba to Ijaiye, which is
making movement around the neighbourhood very easy and takes
traffic away from the express road. It is also bringing commercial
activities into the inner street .
Ambode has impacted the life of common masses in so many

way.
