Lagos State Ten Point Agenda

The Lagos state government has the following ten point agenda to meet the needs of the citizens of Lagos State.

Roads - Aggressive road rehabilitation in all local government areas; construction of new roads and bridges, construction of coastal roads, dualisation of Ikorodu-Itokin-Epe and LASU-Iba roads, expansion of Badagry expressway, and construction of Lekki-Ikoyi Bridge.

Very few roads in any local government. None in mine. The WHOLE of Ikorodu, Epe, Badagry, Alimosho, Ibeju-Lekki, Eti-Osa, Ifako-Ijaye and others are still waiting for this point number one to be executed. Fashola ko, Fash-ole ni!

[b][list]
[li]No new roads or bridges yet
[li]Ikorodu-Itoikin-Epe is a federal road and is being done by FERMA, a federal agency. This point is a blatant fraud
[li]Coastal Road in Eti-Osa to Ibeju Lekki is still not touched. NOTHING DONE THERE TILL TODAY
[li]Badagry Expressway Expansion is a World Bank/ECOWAS/FG/LASG project, so it was going to be done anyway, whether they promised or not. Another fraud.
[li]Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge is not being constructed by Lagos State. It's being done by LCC. We understand it's going to be a TOLLED ROAD also. Owned by LCC. Another fraud, unless they're telling us that LASG owns LCC. It's part of the Concession Contract that was signed with LCC, as is the Coastal Road and the Lagoon Foreshore Road.

Specifically, that agreement states that there shall be no alternative routes provided by the State government into or out of the "Concession Area" for the duration of the concession. That means NO ALTERNATIVE ROUTE WAS EVER PLANNED, contrary to the lies by Fashola, who, by the way, drafted that agreement while he was Chief of Staff to Bola Tinubu, the beneficiary of the Agreement.
[li]LASU-Iba Road had already been expanded and collapsed due to bad design by LASG at the first rains in March. This agenda was posted in July. Another fraud.[/li]

Transportation - Integrated Mass Transit Programme with emphasis on road, rail and water transportation services through LAMATA via a private public participation consisting of: strengthening of traffic management mechanisms, execution of the first state run rail services, construction of light rail and stimulation of private sector investment.

Their so called "emphasis on road" is a farce. See above.
Rail is a World Bank Funded project, and at best is a drop in the ocean compared with what is actually needed, and at GROSSLY INFLATED costs. It is possible some World Bank officicials are benefitting personally from this project through backhanders.
Water Transportation is a joke. No large volume water transport, and investors are afraid, because Fashola and Tinubu are just looking for people to scalp. Ask the existing operators. Oh, I forgot, they're joint ventures with either Fashola or Tinubu, or both

Power/Water supply - Lagos IPP (Emergency Facility) – 270MW (1st phase); Lagos IPP (Permanent Facility) – 540MW (2nd Phase).
The so called emergency facility is supply into the national grid.
Instead of creating a new grid, using the NERC Act, they're using the lazy option of just inviting private sector operators in which they own shares, to set up and feed into the faulty national grid. This is partly why nobody is falling over themselves to exploit the obviously potentially profitable Lagos power market. Corruption in Lagos State and official stupidity at the highest levels have made the market non-existent.

As regards water, the "mini water works", which Fashola "commissioned" to much fanfare during the re-election campaign in Langbasa and Ikorodu are not supplying water to peoples homes. At Langbasa, it's no longer working. In Ikorodu, people are taking buckets to the premises to fetch water after paying a fee at the gate.


Environment/Physical planning - Making Lagos a model city state; introduction of community-based for sustainable development; establishment of a Disaster Management Agency (“DMA”); and aggressive implementation of emission control standards.
Physical Planning WHAT A FUC-KING RIOT!!! There is no such thing in Lagos State. The Physical Planning Ministry exists to make money, not regulate planning. The result is the frequent building collapses you see all over the place.


Health - Deepening of current free health-care programmes; expansion of primary health-care programmes; pursuit of secondary health-care; strengthening of the marine ambulance and emergency medical services; and improvement of medical personnel welfare.
Deepening Their Pockets is the only policy they know here. Tinubu owns ALL the pharmacies in all the general hospitals, including the one at LASUTH. He owns the BT Diagnostic Centre in LASUTH, the Mortuary in LASUTH, the Critical Care Unit in LASUTH, and the recovery ward building there. LASUTH is more expensive than a lot of private hospitals.


Education – Establishment of millennium schools in all local government councils; re-engineering/refurbishment of primary schools; rehabilitation and maintenance of existing schools and libraries; provision of school furniture/equipment; curriculum review/entrepreneurial training; functional scholarship system; and self sustaining tertiary education.
Re-engineering, my bottom. Children are falling into pit latrines in Lagos State schools, LASU has had 32 courses de-accredited by the NUC and the WAEC failure rate is the new index by which we measure performance in Lagos public schools. At the moment, it's over 60% in Lagos.


Employment – Introduction of Graduate Empowerment Programme (20,000 graduates in year one); drains ducts and waste management (10,000 new jobs); and export processing zone (20,000 new jobs).
I don't know about Graduate Empowerment Programme or drain ducts and waste management. All I know is that I see a lot of unemployed graduates milling about, looking for what to eat. The employees we see in KAI and LASTMA are certainly no graduates. Area boys made good, all. Where were the drain ducts and waste management people during the last flood?? The 20,000 jobs at the Export Processing Zone is a BIG FAT LIE. The place is empty. Tinubu recently raised the price of one hectare there from $1m to $2m, and people are refusing to invest. I REPEAT, IT IS EMPTY. 3000 hectares of emptiness is what the place is.


Food security – Empowerment of farmers/fishermen cooperative societies; facilitation of sustainable food production and processing; and support for strategic food preservation and farm settlement development.
I know they made some big noise about a rice for jobs scheme at Ketu, near Epe and launched it with a lot of fanfare. I drive past the place every now and again, and it's also another lie. Empty land. Nobody there. I challenge anyone to refute this.


Shelter – Provision of affordable mass housing schemes; facilitation of a liberalized mortgage system; and new/satellite town development.
We know they're not providing ANY mass housing of any sort. The mortgage system and satelitte town developments are stolen PDP ideas mentioned by at least two of the aspirants for the PDP ticket during their campaign.


Revenue enhancement – diversification of revenue sources; widening tax net; effective revenue collection mechanism; and database development.

This is one area where they've done excellently. They're now collecting more money than ever from Lagosians, that's for sure. But are we seeing the money I certainly can't. I know it doesn't cost that much to plant flowers and beautify federal roads.

REP S NIG:
[size=20pt]E lo joko jaare! Who told you i'm Ibo, i'm certainly not!

I repeat: your tribalism is worse than racism. Its worse than Hitler's treatment of the Jews. Listen to yourself when you say you will not sell goods to Ibos and you will not buy from them. That is the height of a broke, empty, stale, childish, tribalistic skunk!

I repeat, you are giving the great nation of the Yoruba a bad name! How dare you. We should be seen to be enlightened, cosmopolitan and progressive, not spweing such ethnic garbage as what you have here? Nonsense!

Dirty thumb sucker. Olodo rabata roboto. Ode, oshi![/size]

What a pity! u dont know d biography of the person u are criticizing. Any way, you are beating about d bush and it is advicecable for you to go and repent because i see no reason while u wanna kill urself because of d work of God. That man is a work of God. Please desist from d word that can make the blood boil being said. Otherwise, i woul rather said u are suffering from "poverty hallucination syndrom"whether is snuffing cocain, indian-hemp, he hailed from Iragbiji all are not your concerned. If u need assistance let us know we will be of help to u.

Obiagu1:
The kind bitterness some Yoruba folks dey exibit for here is so sad.
A beg my Igbo brothers and sisters, make una leave this thread for them.

No be Igbo man propose the bill, so make you sick Yorubas here go find GEJ for Aso rock or go to Yenogoa and cry to Ijaws there.

When are they even going to consider division of this country make I leave this sick people behind?
Biafra won't be long it seems.

PointB:
All these BS will not work; or better still work against you!
the most stvpid part of it is saying it online in the open. Nevertheless, the sooner you start the sooner the news spread; I can tell you, it wont end the way you think. Igbos have come to stay in this dungeon, aptly called One Nigeria, the more the obstacle, the more they thrive (and produce more babies lol). Take your empty threat and stick it up your stinking a$$. Yorubas have been tribalistic right from the time Igbos started dealing with them; so you have not said anything new. And which Yorubas will stop doing business with Igbos? The one that sold MKO Abiola for pocket money, which one?   I laugh in Yoruba!   If you stop buying from Igbos, be sure that the result will be mutual. Igbo have the money and population to out-muscle you in business, even in your own back yard. And many of them are landlords already, so quit hyperventilating, you are making no sense!  

The man that thrived with 20 pounds will only scoff at your angry, pathetic ranting of a disturb, disillusioned, insecure tribalistic ant.
Bring it on man; when heaven falls it will fall on all of us.  No shaking. Let see who has the tenacity to recover faster!

Nonsenses and jagbajantis post! Yorubos and empty threats! Until Nigeria unravels, the strong will benefit from the status quo. Not the insecure whiners!

While giving deserved credit to Lagos State Governor, Raji Fashola, for infrastructural projects in the state, I urge the governor to endeavour to pay attention to the quality of work being done by contractors handling road constructions in the state.



advertisement

The quality of work being done on Surulere roads casts doubts on the competence of contractors chosen for jobs as well as justifies claims by opposition parties that such contracts are over-inflated in comparison to the work done.

One case that calls for the governor’s urgent attention is Ogunlana Road reconstruction which was completed early this year. It is astonishing that less than five months after, small potholes now dot the entire length of the road built by Plycon! Before the end of this rainy season, the potholes would have developed into craters.

Governor Fashola owes the people of Lagos who voted massively for him a duty to ensure judicious use of funds and that only qualified contractors are given jobs in the state. The job is not over once contracts are awarded. He also has to monitor the quality of work being executed.

I urge the amiable governor to order Plycon which handled the Ogunlana Road project back to do a proper reconstruction of the road. He should reassess current reconstruction of the other side of Masha (Adelabu Street)being done by the same Plycon and terminate the contract if the company cannot do a standard job.

and many more. Don't know much about Mr Tinubu's background, but let's temper anger and exuberance with facts. Difficult, I know.

nwabobo:
Did Aganga finally agree to the TV debate as proposed by Soludo?

Just being curious since I've not been following developments on this.

kolexy:
re- Alpha Beta's track record was prior to 1999?

@ Djustice, where was OANDO prior to 1999? Where was Capital Oil? Where was coscharis? Are u saying People cannot grow there businesses. Or do you have a problem with Fashola becoming the next President of Nigeria? Even Rochas with is numerous special advisers cannot match the vision and intelect of this Leader of Leaders. And if your still not ok, kindly high tension wire,

seanet02:
By the special grace of Almighty Allah, in the name Of Jesus Christ and by the powers of Sango, all the curses you felt you are placing on Sam will bounce back on you. It is you that will die a villain.
May God place the worst curse on you and your family for attacking a man that says the truth.

blackboy:
First, ACN are very good with the media and propaganda. Bravo!! First as some of us have pointed out it has been in existence since in Abuja fully in force since 2010. It's not new, I wonder why the press would perputuate false stories '' first in Africa/Nigeria''.
In reducing traffic, I laugh, Lagosians ,congratulations on being abrakadabrad by the ACN governement. Just another ploy to levy Lagos Car owners, fine them, have them harrassed by LASTMA, generate money for Lagos and as well as give one ACN stalwart or stoog the juicy contract. I know Lagosians wont care. What is 2,000 Naira?
It does not reduce traffic trust me. Are all the police check points legal? LagosPolice will stop your car and be looking for what i snot lost. Customs papers blahh blahh blahh, will it tell if you have a fire extinguisher or not, spare tyre or not?
I love ACN they got Lagosians brain washed. Yes , BRF has transformed Lagos compared under the horrible condition Tinubu put Lagosians in After Marwa started a transformation.
When they were introducing it in Abuja , they never told us dumb stories about reducing traffic but that it will help get those without licences or have not renewed it.
Lagos State gornement , you guys are brilliant before the end of the year or BRF's tenure Lagosians will be paying to the government for almost everything they use, pay tax for it, billed for using it and pay for stepping out of their houses to Lagos State government. Yet the government is making billions per month for VAT, billions from IGR and not to mention burdened doubled taxation and levies and Federal Government allocation . Yet the people in LAgos are suffering and smiling ( as Fela said). Lagos My Lagos, I dont blame ACN , Im not saying PDP wouldn't see how much money they can make. Where are the jobs, social amenities, good housing, health care? The people of Lagos deserve a lot more. Lagos government should b sincere and make life better for Lagosians.

werepeLeri:
Something that has been in use in Abuja and environs since how many years ago.

djustice:
Let me ask you this, omo-Iragbiji-nile, and I sincerely hope that your cocaine addled brain (we know you've been sniffing the residuals from Tinubu's cocaine infested anus) will understand the questions:

1. When was Alpha Beta formed and who are the shareholders?

2. For a company to take on the "contract" assigned to it by Oju-Yobo (Tinubu), it should have had some kind of track record. Could you tell this house what Alpha Beta's track record was prior to 1999?

3. I put it to you that it had NONE. ZERO. No history prior to May 29, 1999, yet Bola Oju-Yobo Amoda Ogunlere Tinubu saw fit to kick out Adekanola and Co, a company with a very good track record, only to replace them with an unknown, hitherto non-existent company. If that is not at least evidence of abuse of office, and a clear indication of conflict of interest as well as a pointer to the possibility of the most heinous type of official racketeering to NORMAL, SENSIBLE, RIGHT-THINKING, MORALLY UPRIGHT people, I don't know what is. Of course, we all know that all the aforesaid qualities cannot under any circumstances be attributed to your cocaine sniffing boss, Tinubu, or to you, his anus osculating lackey, so we understand your fake indignation!

4. Who is the owner of Deux Projects, and what was their track record prior to being awarded an eye-watering multi-billion naira "contract" for the "upgrade" of LASUTH, for which they were paid 80% in advance? 80% of N5.2billion upfront!!! Is that not corruption? Again, the cocaine in your system will shout no, and you will start pouring smoke from every orifice in your faeces perforated body. Ode!

God Almighty will punish all those who are stealing from Lagos, you, Ojuyobo Yekini Amoda Ogunlere, a.k.a. Bola Tinubu (that name belongs to a woman who attended Chicago State University, by the way), Fashola and everybody else they're sharing their ill-gotten wealth with, unto your generations. Of course, if you're not sharing out of the loot, you have nothing to fear and need not respond to this. If you respond, we know how you eat. Ode!

I could go on, but I'll stop for now and let you come and do your usual useless verbal gymnastics and bring your fake fire and brimstone on behalf of those whose faeces you've been eating for years now, Fashola and Ojuyobo!

Ode!

Eko Ile:
You clowns are just dakn too predictable, I was expecting you to show us your proof to back up your ignorant claims, not to spew the same dumb rubbish.

You are just another rumor spewing market woman with air brain.


Btw, what's here to defend? Was a crime commited or this rubbish and funny is even enough to spit on?
How many id do you cowards need to hide under just to spew the same dumb nonsense?
Many of you have serious mental issues for real.
