It Is Amazing Claiming Tinubu Make Lagos by phemy36(m): 5:57pm On Nov 04, 2022
I am very disappointed and at the same time amazed at the way people are comparing Lagos with other states and giving the glory of the development in Lagos to Tinubu. It's very unfair to those states for the following reasons;. 1. Lagos have the luck of being a Colony of the British Government and the British had already developed where the lived like Ikoyi, Victoria Island and part of the Lagos Island e.g Onikan, Obalende and Alagbo. All these areas were already planned and maintained. Or can any tell me of any additional road opened up or added to these areas. Which school or health centre did Tinubu established in these areas. 2. The other developed area is Ikeja. The Ikeja Master Plan was done by Awolowo during the Western Region Era. Wema Board Industrial Estate, Ilupeju Industrial Estate and Oko Oba Farm Settlement ware planned and developed during that time with all road tarred. The Military added to the development and maintained the infrastructures. Jakande expanded the development with the Construction of Alausa Secretariat, Ikeja General Hospital, LTV 8, Lagos Radio, Lagos Press, Ogba Medium Housing Estate etc. As a matter of fact Jakande opened up Ogba and Opebi which were forest within the City. All public Schools and Health facilities were in these areas were established by Jakande. The Iju Water Works which was built by the British to serve the Colonial Masters which led to the protest by the Indigenous Lagosians when the Colonial Masters decided to Tax the residents on the Island for water rates was expanded by Jakande and Adiyan Water Works was added to increase the volume of water produced in order to extend water supply to other parts of Lagos State. I will also like to ask for which infrastructure or facilities did Tinubu add to these areas mentioned. The military also linked all these areas with the Construction of Oregun Link Bridge, Opebi Link Bridge by Sharaton Hotel, General Hospital Bridge, Ikeja ( Oba Akran) Bridge, Linking Ogba to Ojodu Berger to assess the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. 3. Surulere was developed by the Military both Federal and State Governments and Jakande. The first developed which still stands till date was the Construction of Low Cost Housing Estate which the Local called Onilegogoro by Mobolaji Johnson and the Eric More Towers. The residents who were displaced by the Construction of Queen Elizabeth Road now Nnamdi Azikiwe road were moved to Oluwole Low Cost Housing Estate Surulere while the Federal Government housed the Federal Civil Servants in Eric More Tower. Mobolaji Johnson also built Medium Houses and located land to individuals in Bode Thomas Areas and Adeniran Ogunsanya. He also built Adeniran Ogunsanya Shopping Complex which had appropriated to whom you should all know where the Surulere Shopprite now stands. The Eric More Industrial Estate was also established by Jakande in Surulere. I also ask, which development in terms of Infrastructures and Facilities did Tinubu added to these areas. The National Stadium was there since the '70s and the expansion of the Teslim Balogun was started by Marwa. 4. I need not to remind us that Jakande opened up the Lekki Peninsula area with the Victoria Island- Epe Expressway and allocation of Farmlands to people because the area up to Epe was supposed to be Agric areas but it was Tinubu that started converting the Agriculture Certificates of Occupancy to Estate with fiat, hence the springing up of Estates in these areas. Jakande also built Low Cost Housing Estates at Ilasan/ Ikota, Otedola started the Abraham Adesanya Housing Estate in Ogombo and was completed by Tinubu. Marwa built the Lateef Ojikutu Medium Housing Estate, Ilasan. Raji Rasaki demolished Maroko to reclaim the land for the Oniru Family. Hence the development of this axis started long before Tinubu but the major beneficiary of the development of the area is Tinubu and not the indegines nor the masses. 4. The Atlantic City like the Lekki Free Trade Zone are Federal Government Consention Projects. The Ocean Protection work was started with the Federal Ecology Funds and along the line because of treat to the Changuri's Investment in Eko Hotel they came up with the proposal for the land reclamation which the Federal Government approved. The Lagos State Government got involved because of the Constitution Rights to the issues of Land Titles and Building approval. But to the Knowledge of some of us you will never get those approvals in Lagos State without Him getting a share of the cake. Same with the FTZ. The Federal Government approved the establishment of the Zone base on the submission of visibility studies. Then the States provide the land. FTZ are to be established in all States. Most States have more than one. Ogun State has Two already established and functioning at Agbara and Ishagamu. Back to the reason why it's not fair to other States Governors to say Tinubu Performed better than them. Most States met almost nothing on ground interns of Infrastructures and Developments while Tinubu met a developed states with infrastructures and added almost nothing except the Governor's after him. The records are there. SomeTinubu contemporaries who served the same period as Governors performed better than him. For example, when Tinubu was driving Manufacturers away from Lagos with multiple Taxes and making it difficult to get Titles for their lands, Ogun State provide the enabling environment for them to relocate to Ogun States. Can anyone compare the benefits of the establishment of OPIC and allocation of both Industrial and residential parcels of land to the masses in terms development to whatever may be attributed to Tinubu in Lagos State. Multinational Industries all relocated from Lagos to Ogun State during Tinubu. Tinubu reduced Lagos State to the state of Commerce only and we are only able to survive because of the Ports in Lagos. I took time to write all the above because some people who came to Lagos on the invitation of Tinubu are rewriting the history of the development of Lagos to deceive the Public. The Labour of our past Heroes, Like Mobilaji Johnson, Mudashiru Lawal, Alh. Lateef Jakande and others still alive who have contributed to the development of Lagos will never be rubbished. Amen.

I keep asking those indomie generations to list Tinubu's infrastructural drives ,and development in Lagos ,they will mention Lasma, IRS. But each time we try to educate them that Lagos had been developed even before Tinubu became even a senator not to talk of been a governor and did nothing special in advancing Lagos better than what other governors did ,they will be speaking in tongues.

Tinubu is the least performing governor of Lagos State compared to his predecessors, and successors.

Team Tinubu built Lagos come debunk Op now, he is ready for you guys. I have always maintain to that any person can rule Lagos and claim smartness, why didn't Tinubu help his cousin in osun state with his Lagos master plan so we can add Osun to states his built.

Why do people still lament over this? Tinubu built Lagos or not him no go fit built Nigeria. Same with obi and Atiku! They will all fail woefully, shebe na here all of us dey. Wait till next 3 yrs e go clear for all una eyes
Re: It Is Amazing Claiming Tinubu Make Lagos by ElSudani: 7:57pm On Nov 04, 2022
This is an insurmountable hurdle for zombidients. How to delegitimize Tinubu's contributions to the development of Lagos and making it one of the largest economies in Africa.
Obi's scanty resume makes him look a like a Liliputhian next to Tinubu, therefore the zombidients obsession with Lagos.

That's why blacks find it hard to progress, they don't want to discover, even the ones whites have discovered they don't want to read, they just want to play sports and sing and dance.

Is it not better we tell ourselves the truth, that we identify we have a problem then work hard to fix it?
