The foolish ones here will say Funso can't stomach the pain of defeat, he's a wailer, Lagos state shouldn't answer any detractors, Eko O no baje.

In society where accountability is the key word, every penny spent should be well documented and explained and not just tossing unexplainable figures around but then this is Nigeria, some people are perfectly okay with the state of the nation.

A good opposition in Lagos is a welcome development. I am not talking about an opposition driven by tribalism though.

I have always maintained that Funsho Doherty was the best opposition candidate in the last election. However, some people driven by an unknown agenda, decided to push GRV, who at 40, had no 5 years working experience. The only shining thing about GRV was his MIT masters. Funny enough, this Funsho Doherty has a masters from Harvard himself and has several years of working experience at blue-chip companies.

This is how opposition is played. Kudos to Funsho Doherty.


The tribalists are arriving the thread. I know you can't hold it


Gbam. This was the man I supported and even shared on my Instagram status.

Slave mentality, always defending oppressors. The Igbo you slammed contribute 40% of your IGR.

This is the dimension they introduce (the ethnic card) to any topic that offends their lord and master

According to...........

azpekuliar:


Oga abeg make we hear word. Una never ready. Na una go still go trace im ancestry back to the 15th generation and show us were his ancestors married an Igala woman and therefore he cannot be governor of Lagos state. Nothing about the intellect the man will bring to the table will matter, absolutely none! Just 1930s Hitel-Nazi Party style radicalization vibes everywhere. Smh

Raskimonojendor:

And I never heard of this. Where is your proof. Can you provide a media link to show that it was slashed? I remembered Sanwo Olu still have fresh 100s of millions in September.

This is a candidate that has the capacity and requisite experience to manage a state like Lagos that is the 5th largest economy in Africa.

Potable water still luxury 23 years after return of democracy

WHILE the Federal Government continues to proliferate the country with dams, it is such an irony that a state like Lagos, with its massive, constant boast of being a megacity, cannot provide its residents, thereby forcing the bulk of them to take solace in the arms of water boreholes.

At regular intervals, the two major waterworks in the state, the Adiyan, and Iju get grounded leading to the non-availability of water. In April and May last year, for instance, they both produce less than 10% of their installed capacity.

As of today, Eti-Osa, Apapa, Victoria Island, Badagry, Ibeju Lekki, Surulere, Ikorodu, Agege, Ojo, Mushin Kosofe, and most locations in the state are without access to clean water. Consequently, millions of residents now rely on boreholes, rivers, rainwater, as well as comprised wells for their water needs.

On its website, the LWC claims that it has a total installed water production capacity of 210 million gallons per day (MGD), which is far lower than the current estimated daily water demand of 540 million gallons per day.

Also, its plan to produce 745 million gallons per day by the year 2020 through the Lagos Water Supply Master Plan fell flat with the actual number of citizens having access to potable water dropping, rather than increasing 11 years after the launch of the master plan.

A senior staff of LWC, who preferred anonymity said that at present, its agency only supplies water to Lekki, parts of Ikoyi, Victoria Island (VI), Ojodu, Iju, and some parts of Ikotun.

Just because he highlighted possible problems in LASG finance?
Is he the first person to do that?
Should everyone who does it, be automatically seen as having the capacity and requisite experience to manage a state like Lagos?

By the way, what is the source of this information for 5th largest economy in Africa, for APC’s ruined metropolis

Throwback:
Not because he penned an open letter, but based on his career experience.

I read about him during the gubernatorial campaign buildup to the 2023 elections.

Lagos, the commercial hub of Nigeria, has been ranking as one of the worst places to live in the world for the nine straight years, a BusinessDay analysis shows.

Data from the 2019 Global Liveability Index published by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), the world’s leader in global business intelligence, shows the city has been within the range of 137th-139th position out of a total of 140 cities in the world from year 2011-2019.

Fantastically corrupt people in places of public trust.

Yoruba this, Yoruba that. Is Funsho Doherty not a Yoruba himself?

And which state in Nigeria is looting not taking place?

Atleast people are seeing results of governance in Lagos. Care to tell us your own state of origin so we can compare and contrast?
