Can Segun02 tell us the inflation rate compared to Jakande's time, while he is at it, can he tell us the exchange rate as well?

One area that Fashhola done well is in the area of potable water provisioning through the establishment of mini water works.

seguno2:



You mean in some very few select areas of the Island like Ikoyi & VI?
Most parts of Lagos do not know that Fashola exists as far as provision of potable water is concerned. In fact it is one of the many areas where he has performed woefully compared to Jakande.

badesco:

@ Eko ile. It's really not by force to live in Lagos you know.

So you mean, even those that are born and bread in  Lagos should live Lagos for where? always think before you speak. it is an advice.

Eko Ile:


Lagosian or not, if Lagos is not cutting it for you, move your a/s/s to the best place of comfort for you and your family, normal people do this all the time. You are in control of your life.


Crying and yelling on the internet like a little baby is utterly redundant.

seguno2:

@ eko Ile,

Thanks for all the propaganda photos of COMMISSIONED mini water works etc. I noticed you conveniently forgot to mention anything about the increased individual tax/levy burden on Lgosians under Tinubu and Fashola for media-enlarged cosmetic development that is not felt by the people in their everyday life.
Simple question:

Why are people still building INDIVIDUAL boreholes for their houses all over Lagos, including Ikeja that is the seat of government so they can have CONSTANT supply of potable water


I am sure you also know it is not by force to lead Lagosians if you cannot perform EXCELLENTLY. BAT and BRF can also get packing to their states of ORIGIN, like Tinubu's former commissioner for works, Aregbesola has done by going back to Osun State.

Eko Ile:


Now, I need you to pay attention to my dare. I need you to show us any similar effort staged by any other state government in Nigerian and even the federal government in terms of water production including building a dedicated power plant to provide uninterrupted power supply to water works.

The fact is, people like you are behave like sadists, you see everything in terms of doom and gloom.
