I seriously see nothing bad in electorates asking for an aspirants previous performance and I see it as an opportunity for Tinubu's presidential promoter to market their man .

I was in Lagos during Tinubu's tenure as the executive Governor but unfortunately , I can't mention all his administration did during his tenure but I will try to mention few that I still remember but I sincerely wish someone closer to those that worked with him will give us a comprehensive list of his administration's achievement.

I lived in Agege throughout his tenure and I can still remember some of these projects below.


1. Education:

Construction and rehabilitation of the schools . His administration built and rehabilitated most of the schools with dilapidated buildings around Agege those years . Schools like Saka Tinubu's , Government college , Oyewole primary and secondary schools benefited from this and his administration also built 1 model school in Agege local government and I am sure more can still be found in the other LGs.

His administration also did a lot on recruitments , training and welfare of the schools staffs coupled with making the schools affordable to everybody. It was actually supposed to be free education but to be sincere it wasn't totally free but the administration scored more than a pass mark .

2. Housing


Through the LSDPC , Tinubu administration constructed a lot of housing estates in Lagos and majority of the housing estates were designed to be low cost housing estates like the ones we have in Arigbanla street and some at oko-oba but I heard majority of the housing units were cornered by the civil servants , bought cheap in their family and friends name and later sold to the public at exorbitant rates but the facts still remains the housing estates were built as promised by the administration and lots of lagosians turned house owners through some of those housing schemes.

3. Road

His administration also did a lot in terms of road constructions and rehabilitation within the state. In my LG for instance , I can remember how they rehabilitated the Iyana-Ipaja -Agege road , Inner Street roads like the Arigbanla street , oko-oba roads, Agege -Ogba , Iyana-Ipaja -Lasu road etc and most of those roads are actually still in great conditions.

Apart from roads construction, the administration also tried in tackling the problems of erosion in Lagos state and that big canal in Mulero and the one coming from abattoir was constructed by Tinubu's administration which help in arresting the problems of erosion during rainfall. The fashola administration later expanded the canal coming from the abattoir side and it helps in reducing the problems of the erosion to manageable level . people living around Papa Ashafa and orile -Agege can bear me witness on this .



***Health


Orile Agege general hospital was upgraded and he built new structures and employed more health workers. His administration also started and equipped LASAMBUS which is an emergency rescue services . I think it is LASAMBUS that later grew to LRU now in Lagos.




Security:


Tinubu's administration reduced the usual practice of the inter ethnic clashes that usually occur in Lagos and contrary to the usual allegation that his administration breeds touts , I think his administration did a lot in engaging those touts and criminal by employing them as tax officers etc. Lagos state used to be notorious for armed robberies, 419 and pick pockets before the coming of Tinubu's administration.

His administration also initiated the Lagos security trust fund which became popular under the fashola regime . LSTF has helped in no small measure in raising funds and procurement of equipments for our security men.


BRT , LASTMA LAWMA etc were the brainchild of Tinubu's régime.

Theodore Orji did more than twice this list and we still consider him a failure in the SE.

So Tinubu's minions cannot mention even one legacy project so we can consider to vote the Jagaban?

However, he began to work in the mainland in his second tenure. Despite the fact that Obasanjo withdrew Lagos state allocation for years, Tinubu built the BRT, dualized the Ikorodu road etc.

Moreover, I am not saying he has no flaws.
Stop peddling the lie against OBJ he withdrew Lagos state allocation. OBJ only withdrew the Local Goverment allocation Tinubu was never meant to touch anyway.

Elected Local Government Chairmen are the only individuals that can spend Local Government allocations.

I already told you I am not his spokesperson and I only mentioned few out of what his administration did in my LG and around where I used to reside. I am actually expecting some of his apostles to respond to your challenge and give a comprehensive low down of his administration's achievement.


But as a former Lagos resident and a witness to what governance was under Tinubu's administration, I won't hesitate to vote Tinubu if he's presented as a candidate for any elective post in the future because I know despite few of his failings , Tinubu will definitely perform beyond average

First of all, let it be known that Lagos state was abandoned and left to rot by the federal government of Nigeria in other to develop Abuja.

They thought if the neglect all the infrastructures and move all the ministries to Abuja, Lagos state will loose its status as the economic capital of Nigeria but God pass man.

Prior to the time Tinubu became the governor of Lagos state, Lagos state roads were not motorable and was in the same state with what you see in Aba.

What Tinubu did as soon as he in was draw the master plan for the development of Lagos state. The same master plan is what his predecessors used are still using uptill date.

The plan was to rehabilitate, reconstruct, construct etc all the roads in the Island to bring direct foreign investment into Lagos state through that area. He fullfil that tasks and boom boom Lagos state witnessed inflow of investors which generated huge revenue for Lagos state.

That was why we called him the governor of Islanders in his first tenure.

However, he began to work in the mainland in his second tenure. Despite the fact that Obasanjo withdrew Lagos state allocation for years, Tinubu built the BRT, dualized the Ikorodu road etc.

Moreover, I am not saying he has no flaws.

With all the massive federal presence in Lagos state, if you said it was left to rot, what then will you say about states with little or no federal presence, like all the state in the South East?
You can see why people always talk about Lagos state. Where is Imo/Abia, in terms of federal presence compare to Lagos state?

So who bailed out the Local governments whose allocation was withheld for 10 months ? Or you think their staffs stayed that long without salary for that long ? The state government paid the salaries and kept the LGs running throughout those periods

Agreed the allocations were withheld for 10 months. Tinubu ruled for 8 years and his supporters are finding it hard to show his legacy projects.
Ambode ruled for only 4 years and he has legacy projects all over Epe and other locations in Lagos.

I'd think this should be your main priority today instead of Tinubu who is not responsible for your life or the backwardness in your village.

Lagos was a former capital and enjoyed numerous federal projects. It was only after the attempted coup against IBB, the accelerated move of the capital to Abuja was made in the late 80's.
