@Hardtalk,

The question is Why did you post it?

I want to thank all the thinking NL posters who have requested that you (Hardtalk and cohorts') produce your better alternative to Fashola. People are not that silly, smear campaigns will not work in this case. What this man is doing is VISIBLE to the eye (remember 1ST term), if the media does not report it, we the people are NOT blind.

No one has said that he is a saint, but he has given hope to a lot of Nigerians that leadership can be used to do the right thing (which is the good thing). At the end of the day, the choice (of what to do with power) is yours to make.
My Dear, read all the post once again.

A.B.S:
@Poster: Facts please not stories. Your argument is that you want us to view Fashola objectively isn't it?
1. How can we do that when you post 'stories' with no facts backing them up.
2. How did you even get access to the figures you posted, after all you claim that the BRF administration is not transparent or did u just cook them up
3. People believe what they see, so move about Lagos some,

I still do not understand posters on this thread. I am not the writer of this report, neither do I know those behind it. My only mistake for now, is having to post it and my first comment, which I have apologised several times. If I had collect money for this, then, I will not have the face to say all these. Whoever is annoyed by this post, I apologise, for the last time. Let there be peace!.

Otobroto:
I have read through all the argument for and against. The only issue here is that, although, Fashola must have done one or two things which his detractors are now using against him, but he deserve commendation. If amongst 36 governors, he stole (as acussed), but he made people feel at least for now, good governance, what do we do? Where he has defaulted, lets caution him, and please lets make him continue. We can start building better governance, from him. When he is celebrated, others will learn. He is not a saint at all, but he is the best for now!.
This is the main reason why this topic was posted, and not to kill Fashola.

Meanwhile, I still want to apologise for my earlier comment, underneath the topic. I never meant any harm, eventhough it has been interpreted wrongly.

Fashola supporters, I am just an ordinary man on the street, with no ill intention against him.

Hardtalk,

You see I don't think anyone has anything against what you posted. Infact it is good for information sake. Reading thru your posts gave me the opportunity of having the document on the various allegations being raised by the True Face of Lagos guys. I think why the guys on Fashola's side reacted the way they did was the rider you put after the posting. 'Is fashola indeed a saint?' Anyone reading that smells bias and in law such stance is pre-judicial.

If you have left things at just informing, there won't be this much talks and yabbing.

tpia please let's tone down emotions so that we do not resort to verbal abuses as is being done. We can always learn from each other. We all know how we feel about Fashola but lets apply a modicum of decorum

Let's enjoy this forum. It isvery educative. Please guys let's sheathe our sword

God bless you all
I apologise, all ye Fashola fans, for how I started with my posts. I never meant any harm. Many years of corruption in our society has made us all to see every Nigeria leader to be corrupt. I love Fashola, but report reaching me is saddening. All ye Fashola fans, I am sorry oh! ( I am on the floor rolling, ) grin grin grin

Mr hardtalk but i'm sure no politician from your home state has done half of what Fash has done for Nigeria in his two years plus. Or what state are you from if you disagree ?
It is unfortunate that you now want to personalise issue here, and it is not proper. What if I tell you I am fortunate to have a Nigerian mother and a European father? Please never mind where I am from, and address issues. I do not hate Fashola, not at all. Soon, you will Know I dont!.

show me one. if u cannot show me one then shut up

i prefer a stealing fahola that is working than a non working stealing politician

even u woul theif when u get there, u r already displaying the xteristics of a tif-- condemn others
Your post is belated!. The question has been asked and answered by other posters. Read the entire thread, and you will see it. No body hates Fashola, and people are saying the same thing. No saints amongst Nigerian leaders, thats all.

@poster

I have read these allegations elsewhere and they are quite shocking to say the least. I am pretty sure they're all politically motivated but that doesnt mean they're not true. I think its a shame that people cant avoid the ''cow herd mentality'' and THINK for once. Fashola's impact has been felt no doubt but that doesnt make him above the law. people replying here should try and face the issues and quit attacking the poster.Its childish, illiterate and plain pointless
Hard talk is hard to swallow!. The truth is coming out for all to see.

I guess nairaland is getting beyond putting foolishness on the home page.

At Mr. Hardtalk, how long did it take you to type up your allegations?

How did you come about your information?

Are you working with his government?

Did someone give you a list of the allegations?

Please stop all these cat and mouse games you've been playing.

You are becoming a buzzing mosquito.
My Dear, I hope you can read and write, because even Mr. Tpia knows that I did not go to school. Check the whole report, did you see my name as the reporter? Did EFCC told you, I came to lay complaints to them? What if EFCC has the same report you are reading here? Do you think EFCC are fools? They do not act on dustbin reports dear. I love Fashola, and I pray nothing happens to him. The whole essence of this is that, no Nigerian leader is a saint. It is just that, some are more corrupts than some. We should stop worshipping these people.

If Fashola wants to prove anything, who is he going to prove to that he is innocent?

Who is accusing him?

Have they reported to EFCC?

The man has a job to do abeg.

The accusation is by faceless people. I won't be surprised if their sponsors are people who wine and dine with the man sef.

For the people concerned about the allegations, I know his government has been very transparent so far, and i believe you can request for any information you want rather than just slinging mud online.

And if you are not satisfied, go to EFCC or sue him to court.

Let us (fashola worshippers) hear word jor.

Do not forget that, Lagos still get atleast N6billion from federal allocation monthly, and that makes it N20billion monthly. Just be objective, and still using profane languages here. N20billion might worth nothing, if you look at it from outside the country, but in Nigeria, it is still something. If indeed it was nothing, why are they killing themselves, just to become governor?

so because N14 billion chicken change was paid in taxes, you now consider yourself qualified to sit down and start running mouth over how to run a state.

Ever heard of fiscal matters and do you see why I mentioned semi literate and half illiterate earlier?
My brother, you need not call anyone semi-illiterate, because those who do so, are addressing themslves. N14billion monthly, is no small money for our economy. How many states in this federation has raised N14billion monthly? Have you been made to pay for business permit, parking permit, radio permit, tv permit, advert permit, development levy, income tax, and all the above listed, and some not remembered. Have you been made to pay for all these, and even twice as it is in Lagos? Paying for all the listed is not the issue, but have you paid nearly all the above listed, to local govt council, state government, and sometimes to federal government?.

When you are doubled-taxed, and at the end of the day, you see little development, it is very painful. Ask your brothers at Alaba, and they will tell you how life is, in Lagos. Say something reasoning, at least, you are full-literate.

Mr. You brought the ill talk here. And like tpia said, anybody can cook up any amount of lies he/she wishes in Naija.

If you really have something to say, or you have proof beyond reasonable doubt, then let us know so we can prosecute our Governor.

But if you don't have anything meaningful to say, then don't say nothing.
Indeed, another Fashola follower, waka make I pass jare. I have nothing against Fashola, but all these are begging questions, seeking answers, even if the write-up is full of lies, let someone please help us. We know how much people pay as taxes on monthly basis. In fact, N14billion as confirmed by Fashola, is no small money in our economy bro!.

@poster
judging by the date of your registration with NL - 23/1/10 it is obvious that you are a paid agent of some dark forces to set up an account with NL designed to propagate and contrive some most ridiculous accusations against Fashola. Your mission is to frustrate, truncate and stall the progress of his good administration. I know your type, you are an enemy of yourself who is being given his own flesh for a dinner. You shall not succeed in your nefarous mission in Jesus name. Shioooor
Your own case is even the worst. What makes you feel one is paid agent to truncate any good administration? Have we met before? That is how you people praised Buba Marwa, and even told him to remove his uniform and embrace civilian regime. What happened after he left office, me and you knows how much he stole, and that ruined his career. I guess, whoever posted the same against him in any forum then, must have been castigated like this, but the end justified the means. My friend, do not walk along the path of others. Have your own conscience!.

Fine, you have every right to run your mouth, but at least I can read and write, and I am semi literate as you say, but what have you said so far, Mr. Full-literate.? I used my semi-literate sense to post these, so that people will read and argue out whether it is a lie, or has element of truth.

We already have multiple capitals. Every state have its own capital and they are suppose to serve as a nerve centre for development. With resources, planning and good governments, the state capitals are suppose to be more devoloped than the federal territory.

Take example of the US. Cities Like LA, NY, Chigago, Atlanta are massive, big, and developed. A city like San Francisco is not even a capital of any state. Individual states are suppose to create wealth, nuture it, and move beyond hand-outs from federal government.

I think Oil is making people Lazy. Now people don't even use their brain to think.
I am happy that, you asked the question and at the same time, answered the question. Our states capitals are glorified villages. One need to see how some of them are? Go to Ibadan and see. Go to Akure, and not to mention all the states capitals in the north. Nothing to write home about.

then later you start wondering why the entire country has a bad image.
Well, I do not understand you here. If this story is real, then Fashola should bow his head in shame. Lets put sentiments aside. Which Nigerian leader has not soiled his hand one way or the other? Why did Fashola go to court, if his hands were clean? I just pray, this story is not true. Abeg, leave Naija alone. We know ourselves!.
