Jakande Didn’t Live In Govt House, Drive Govt Car - Afenifere by Omooba77: 6:47pm On Feb 11, 2021
Pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, on Thursday paid glowing tributes to a former governor of Lagos State, Lateef Jakande, saying he exemplified selfless service.

The National Publicity Secretary of Afenifere, Yinka Odumakin, said this in a statement entitled, ‘Adieu our LKJ’.



He said, “Afenifere deeply mourns the death of the first executive Governor of Lagos state, Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande at the age of 91. Alhaji Jakande was the last of the LOOBO (Lagos, Oyo, Ondo, Bendel and Ogun) Governors who faithfully implemented the UPN five cardinal programmes.


“His implementation of the free education programme especially the phasing out of the shift programme in Lagos schools was swift and revolutionary. He served Lagos without greed and covetousness.



“He never lived in government house or drive a government car throughout his service to the state. Jakande developed the Lekki area and never took a plot for himself. His life was all about service. We pray that God will send more of his type our way.”

embarassed embarassed embarassed Rest in peace Lateef Jakande, he is a true selfless Democrat unlike one of his successors who is a power hungry, land grabbing drug addict from Iragbiji who has monopolized everything in Lagos and through his drug trade is turning the state into a haven for thuggery and social vices.

There has been no Governor like LKJ. Only BRF comes close.

I remember his modest house in Ilupeju those days and white Toyota Crown. smiley

May his soul rest in peace.
