'A Lie I Allowed’: Fashola Denies Promising APC Will Fix Power In Six Months

Several reports claimed that the Minister of Works and Housing promised in the lead-up to the 2015 election that if voted in, the APC would solve Nigeria’s power challenge. The reports went further to claim that Fashola urged Nigerians to “stone” him if the promise was not kept.

But the minister has denied making such a statement, describing it as a “lie that I allowed”.

“One of the things that were said about me was that I said we would electrify Nigeria in six months,” Fashola said during a Channels Television’s election show The 2023 Verdict on Monday.

“It was a lie that I allowed to run until the day I asked my media men to play the tape back and since then that lie has gone.”

The minister said he could not have made the comment since the tone did not align with his personality.

“I know that in the way I speak, I don’t use words like stone. I am not even a violent person. Stone is violence. I don’t use those kinds of words. They are not part of my vocabulary,” he added.

‘Not Delivering Results’
Fashola also decried the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) naira swap policy, saying public officeholders should review their plans if they are not producing the right results.

“I empathise with those challenges but some of them are the result of policy and it is the responsibility of public servants, especially those responsible for those policies to look back and say, ‘Did we intend to cause this pain?’

“And if the policy is not working, perhaps you have to readjust and also ask yourself whether you thought this through. As a public officer, before and now, I have had cause to reverse myself, when I saw that my policies were causing unintended results.

“So, I have no responsibility in those two areas and therefore I cannot speak to the details of the facts that are available to the policymakers but the important thing is that those policies are not yet delivering the results and are delivering a lot of inconvenience for [people],” he said

One day, Tinubu will deny that he said he was the one who saved buharri from being a born loser by making him president because buharri is not bright enough to win on his own.

Fashola and APC are a bunch of liars.

Trust APC at your own peril

Already

Fashola is a disgrace to himself.

Abeg make una watch the video and hear for yourself

You didnt use stone but you used rocket science😂😂😂

Fashola Damaged himself so bad!

He took his Great reputation to the Gutters by Aligning with the Disastrous APC/Buhari/Tinubu govt!

He can NEVER get back his Lost Glory. Quite a Pity

It was Amaechi who said they should be stoned, while Fashola said that a serious government should fix power under months just to criticize Jonathan.

I said it before and I will repeat myself: if the black man cannot fix Nigeria, let's invite the Caucasians to replicate what they did in South Africa.

After buhari…


This guy is the most disappointing failure from this administration.


So much was expected from him. So little was delivered!

So disappointing fash…

It was all the mischief of children of hate and perdition. There's nothing they can't lie about.

That's how the lied that the person occupying Aso rock is Jubril of Sudan, the vowed that Donald Trump would come and conduct referendum in Nigeria, and they are presently lying to themselves that Peter Obi would win 35states.
