Unemadu: The topic is related to housing in lagos state.
Therefore tell us what he is doing about low cost housing instead of throwing useless insults.

BuddahMonk: Am from Anambra but I never believed any of my state governors untill i see the tape being cut.

And to Kogi state to build $3B refinery probably to charge Anambra because of the disputed oilfields, abeg when was the last time teachers were paid in Kogi State becasue i could remember their industrial action is more than a year now.

Unemadu: i pay tax to Lagos state so what are they doing with it?
other than handing it to Tinubu.

Unemadu: No get it right, Tinubu didn't enrich himself, Lagos govt enriches his insatiable lust by overburdening the poor masses.

Unemadu: A village doesn't have a governor, if ur enlightened then u should know that.

Stop enriching Tibubu at the expense of the masses.

ChristLight: Does the constitution also make provision 4 him 2 campaign 4 a lost battle every year? supporter of APC E-goat

Unemadu: Let him keep stealing from the poor and handing over to Tinubu

ChristLight: This man ran unsuccesfully for the office of the president 2003, 2007, and 2011... And some normal humans will tell me He is and was never currupt. How was he able 2 afford those bullet proof jeeps over 20years after he stepped down as our country's president The man even wants 2 run again.

kel4soft: I wonder why this is not in FP?

Unemadu: Hahahaa u just had to resort to insults
roads that he Tolls?
schools that he jacked up their fees?
what of housing? i know what lateef jakande did
what does this guy do to alleviate the burdens of the less privileged?
He just taxes people only to hand over to Tinubu.
Let's see your defense.

INNOisBACK: And if i understand well, a psychophant like yourself who is obviously a political jobber, feeding off the crumbs of his kleptomaniacal master is the only intelligent scholar on this forum?

berem: Blame the oga at the top who moved the thrash to front page. He is known to be a Buhari hater so its not surprising the thread was moved to front page.

INNOisBACK: Agbamental Go kill yourself for all we care!!!

eagleeye2: I was happy when APC was formed, and I thought a worthy opposition to the PDP has emerged. But when Buhari who had earlier said he won't contest election again after 2011, started nursing ambitions I became sad.
I supported Buhari in 2011 election and I still believe he is an honest man, but he should leave the show for the younger politicians.

Unemadu: We all know Fashola runs an elitist govt. Afterall he once said he could find low cost cement.

since u can't answer a simple question then my guess is the benefiaries are his elite friends.

Goldenboy007: We operate a quasi-capitalist economy because most crucial industrial sectors are still under government control e.g Refineries and their attempts at privatizing had been plagued with problems

Now let me give you this analogy, Lets evaluate the Telecommunication Industry. Once upon a time what we had was NITEL and you can remember what telecommunication was then, in fact a minister said publicly that owning a phone should be an exclusive of the rich and not for everybody. However the FG brought in private Investors - Impacts of the Telecommunication Investment
1, The common man had assess to phones and communication platforms breaking the old popular jinx that some infrastructures are only meant for the rich man.
2, Creation of jobs etc.
3, Creation of tax revenue.

This investment met all your criteria while still building an infrastructure accessible to the common man

These are the kind of investment we need to meets the need of all. There are still lots of infrastructural deficiencies that can be met rather than building castles in the air. Like the Telecommunication investment, bring in investors to build relevant infrastructures. Health Sector is a disaster, Housing is a huge problem, Stable electricity is a dream. What happened to the sand_filled land that Lagos Government spent billions of tax payers money on? Are they not in dispute now?

We need to set our priorities right, It is this infrastructural neglect that bred terrorist groups like Boko Haram and some Ethnic militants. We concentrated development in Abuja while some parts of the North had never seen electricity or pipe born water, there goes your idea of investment. Tell me how many Investors the North is attracting now?

I rest my case here

abdulwastecx: we operate a capitalist economy, if any legitimates investor comes in with money and decide to invest as a govt u can't stop them, rather u support them and attracts more to your state, irrespective of where they get their money from.

if you must create job, wealth creation, poverty reduction and technology transfer then u need more private investment. countries in East Asian ( south Korea, taiwa and singapore) were able to transform in a major industrial nation by opening up their country for both domest and foreign investors

Jankode's era was in the 80s, over the year the population of Lagos has exploded, in other to keep up with the population you need high rise building for both residential and commercial activities, this project is what is needed in lagos

finally, Lagos is not a place for peasant farmers, to be a Lagos resident you must have the dynamism of first world society i.e. have basic education, job, be ready to pay tax and always aim very high

which of your kins can afford any of the structures you have shown us now?

Goldenboy007: Hmmmmm, How did my first sentence on this topic start? Peacefully !!! Go back and read it. You crossed that threshold of rational argument when you said there was no sense in what I said. However as your recent reply contains no derogatory remarks, I will give you that same respect. Lets just leave it at that.

Revolva: Nice development but how will this put food on the table of the pple livin in this wonderful city

Goldenboy007: Your masters steal money and come back under one cock and bull foreign company name to embark on white elephant projects ! When we had true leaders in Lagos like Jakande and co we had low cost housing Estates built all around Lagos in which your peasant fathers and grandfathers were beneficiaries when they first arrived in Lagos! Tell me something, which of your kins can afford any of the structures you have shown us now? Lie make I woz you slap! - sorry I am not insulting you o - the truth be told ! You sold Lagosian into slavery under draconian contracts in the name of private investments and when you guys will pack your political bags and go Lagosians would have inherited debts their next 2 generations can't pay off! !! You are throwing the word "poor" all around, are you rich? Please don't allow me to transfer my aggression on your person o!
When you come to a public forum, keep an open mind and argue with critics intelligently, don't waive other peoples opinion away as if you are god of wisdom! Lagos citizens are more of stakeholders than you guys will ever be and they have a right to have a say in how you desecrate their lands with stolen money!
Don't mistake me for a PDP campaigner o, I love Fashola o but don't come here and sell us duds!
