Lagos would have been a world class city if not that Tinubu continues to loot the state dry.

If Peter Obi was the governor of Lagos State for just 4 years, Lagos would be having enough budget to feed the whole of West Africa. But one man has ruined the city and made it poor, go to Ajegunle, and any other slums in Lages, Tinubu refused to spend state money on the state, preferring to stock his loot so he can use it to bribe the people whom he had made poor.

Please don't vote for people with Questionable characters, vote for verified candidates.

I feel sad everytime I see what Lagos would have become. This boat rescue should have been supported with helicopter services from the state government, but Asiwaju used the money to buy several private jets.

Funny how you lots complain about Lagos and waste your live trolling tinubu all day. You could put that effort into something more reasonable.

Let's not talk about the fact that you folks are being ravaged by unknown gunmen and senseless sit at home but dare not speak up against the governor. When are you gonna talk about the current issue in your own place?
Is this desperation or what?
At least Lagos is doing great,and a boat capside happens everywhere. Can the same be said about your place?

This is a faceless forum. Trying to impress people just for likes won't get you no where. I see you and the other sick dude "prince of Lagos" everywhere, and I tend to wonder whether you two even have a live outside of here!

Why are you worked up about Lagos? Are the "lagosians" complaining or rather did they make a complaint to ya?

Lagos or some part of the East, which needs your attention the most?

They have come again with tribalism in an open argument. Whenever someone points out thr stealing of public funds, some criminals will hide under their ethnic umbrella to change the matter to tribal ranting to shield their corrupt tribesmen.

Oga, we all have stakes in Lagos and we want the state to be better. This is a Lagos thread, stop talking about other states.

I don't understand their obsession with Lagos. Lagosians are not fools and they are not complaining but these people won't mind their business for once. The way they are pushing Lagosians to the wall, they should keep praying we don't turn back at them one day.

By the way, this post really shows how well Lagos State Government has done in waterways security because the post states everyone on board were rescued.

We saw how Anambra that they claim Peter Obi built, their fire service were taking water from a tank to put out a market fire in this century. They will turn a blind eye at that.

Mr. Seun call easterners on nairaland to order. They should mind their business and let's live together as one in Lagos.

No one died in this incident. In fact, the proactiveness of the LSWA (Established during Tinubu's tenure) ensured they didn't perish.

Meanwhile, here is a post liked and shared by Obidients when innocent students of Madonna University got burnt in a motor accident.
Naira20:
It is well.
However, God is not constrained to save by multitude or few.

I'm confident God wants to humble politicians by helping Peter Obi to win

His emergence is beyond us all.God will take all the glory in the rebirth of this country.

You Obidogs are bloodthirsty murderers

See the kind of boats they are using for a water that big, the tide will surely take over the boat when it comes strong. Lasg should try and get bigger and a little bit heavy ones and stop this fantasy arrangement. Well we bless God for the lives saved by the first responders.

Kerosene is very expensive now, in fact, its a costlier gift that the 2 kg of garri Tinubu was sharing to adults like he was feeding his chickens yesterday.

This thread never mentioned Tinubu but you ignorantly brought him into it like he's responsible for your dilapidated state!
