Did you even watch the clip This guy is offering raw solutions to the problems in Nigeria and you’re here saying gibberish.

Sowore Next President

I hate it when people of Sowore calibre do not prepare adequately for a debate and come on air to ridicule himself more on discourse he knows nothing about.

He should for once go and read the legal frameworks that establish all the stakeholders in the power sector...........to the regulator before coming on air spew ru.....sh.

know:
Already acting as the governor. You see why baba Obj is right. APC has already perfected their rigging strategy.

Reality check, he has taking a bold step to occupy the seat of power in Lagos state.

His plan is the best amongst the candidates contesting for the Governorship position.

Away from the title, Mr Sanwoolu, our incoming GOVERNOR, a listening leaders in his campaign have reached far and wide to accommodate ideas from groups, stakeholders and institution amongst others with a view of ensuring all interest are aligned towards fulfilling his mandate.

You can't take away from A competent and the best candidate for job.

Vote babajide Sanwoolu as Governor of Lagos state.

darecool:
Can you enlighten me on how he's more equipped than the rest?

In addition, Lagos state is too developed and enlightened to start experimenting leadership and policies.

darecool:
Can you enlighten me on how he's more equipped than the rest?

Sanwoolu's programme has a roadmap that will address issues from short ( low hanging), medium to long term for the period of his administration. It is a solution driven approach that takes notes of all the activities of the state Government.

Governance is not about abstractions alone but more about grounded actions which his team have worked on in the last months to take a bold step towards occupying the seat of power at Alausa.

This is what other candidates are lacking, it is only abstractions on screen, which overly lacks substance when implementation is due.

Hope you understand strategic planning.

Only the true son of the soil, we lagosians knows the best man to vote for ; and the candidate is Babajide Sanwoolu, our incoming GOVERNOR in few weeks time Insha Allah.

Alausa house is not for an average, emotional and sentimental feeble minds but rather for intelligent, innovative and intellectual personality. Here is Sanwoolu articulating his planned programme after engaging, consulting and interacting with stakeholders, workforce groups, different individuals and institutions to ensure policies formulated are impactful for progress and development of the state.

Out of all the candidates, he is the only one that is adequately equipped with solutions and prepared to lead Lagos state to Greater height.

Vote Babajide Sanwoolu as our Governor of Lagos state.

ajepako:
Do you know the way that moniker and l joke and banter with each other one line?

Do you know how much the moniker loves mentioning everybody online just to annoy and amuse me?

You simply decided to become a moralist and sermonist based on a banter between two monikers...

Next time you decide to sermonise , check previous mentions and quotes, OK..

And to have an insight into the moniker you're preaching about, check out his other aliases: notoriousbabe, iyangbali, babangbali, enemy of progress, enemyofpeace

And those are the ones I know

Now check out his posts and comment as l await your apology for unnecessary meddling

My apologies.

ajepako:
Werey llorin

Will you be happy if your dad is called the name above?

Sometimes we are overly reactive to politician strategy in getting our votes but many times we fail to use our brain to understand the motives behind their actions.

Let me Educate you, Mr Sanwoolu, our incoming Governor have been identifying himself with different workforce growing our GDP in Lagos state; to learn, interact, understand issues facing their business and having an insight of the business proper with a view of formulating policy that would promote entrepreneurship in the state. It is important to engage our youth in start-up like this to reduce the numbers unemployed. For your information, this have been the focus of his attention to these set of lagosians.

A Government without a strategic plan will fail woefully................Don't let us be dramatic, emotional when the right time comes our way to vote who becomes our Governor.

It requires a ventilator for the child to survive.

Only lagoon hospital has this in Lagos .

mfm04622:
As per the State generating her own power, it is now allowed

Oga put your source and not just comment.

It has not been established for your information.

We just allow politicians to bamboos us with information without fact checking same.

Go to lagoon hospital.

Jayloy:
The outcome of yesterday's debate is going to dominate today's conversation no doubt. The fairest debate ever IMO. My unbiased positions are as follows

1. Gbadamosi Babatunde 1st
2. Sanwo Olu 2nd
3. Jimi Agbaje 3rd
4 Salis 4th

Thanks to The Platform, a brainchild of Poju Oyemade, the pastor of covenant Christian Centre.

The truth is that Jimi could have done better. If I were to be Jimi Agbaje, I'll be criticising Lagos government decisions every week. I must always be in the news to constantly rob it on people's face that I can do better. Voice out better alternatives to any project they do, with this he would have been in the news and we would have unconsciously have seen him as a better alternatives. This he should have done while building political structures among the not too educated that always vote at the grass root.

I disagree slightly sir, Sanwoolu should come 1st and Gbadamosi 2nd.

Governance is not all about abstractions alone but more importantly grounded actions. Go back and watch the debate again, what you will notice are unrealistic solution peddled by Gbadamosi. It is not be eloquent alone, it is the substance that comes with it.

He said Lagos state will generate power by itself HOW? He clearly does not have the legal frameworks and the infractions that might come after.

He also mentioned rail as if Lagos state can do it alone without consultation with stakeholders. Etc


Preparation is key in aspiring for the enviable position in Lagos state, this is Lagos state and not others in the country...............you must come with data,information and not just visualize without concrete steps.

Lavoca:
You should have just ignored other candidates and go straight to campaigning for Sanwo olu so that Thiefnuubu can continue to milk Lagos

You virtually know nothing about GOVERNANCE I can bet that. Governance is not only about abstractions alone but more importantly with grounded actions.

Every body can have vision for Lagos state but without solution driven programmes which can only be actualized by concrete and practical steps. This is the substance that is lacking in the solution reeled out by Mr GBADAMOSHI . On his plan, he has not factored the stakeholders and he clearly lacks understanding of these issues he claim to solve.

Governance is more of grounded actions and not abstractions, do you know what it takes to negotiate with stakeholders and the legislators. Power issue is more of legal frameworks and not will of the state GOVERNMENT. Do yourself a favour, educate your self well on these sectors

donbrowser:
Good analysis. Gbadamosi should start his next campaign from March 2019. I like the way you analyzed everything unlike one suya seller that will be coming here to shout Sai baba and thinks everyone that have contrary opinions support Atiku.

I disagree a bit with your write up, leaving personality out of Governance issue in Lagos state, I think SANWOOLU cleared the debate with concrete and practical steps to solve the problems bedevilling Lagos state at the debate.

Governance is not about abstraction alone but more importantly by taking precautions to engage those stakeholders holding claim to your resources for smooth grounded action. I watch the debate thrice to see who has the leadership skills and will to actualize the mandate of Lagos state, without a doubt it is SANWOOLU, he actually have the strategic plans to resolve the pending issues left by the incumbent GOVERNMENT. He has started the consultation and have given a time frame to resolve the issues.

I understand the sentiment and emotion of who endorse him but the truth is if you are the best you are the best.

I just laugh with some unrealistic solutions peddled by some candidates at the debate today.

It is very clear that their preparation is in doubt with the data and information reeled out to the audience.

1. Gbadamosi seems to have ideas but many are unrealistic I.e like solving power by letting Lagos state generate power by itself. Does he understand the spectrum or value chain to regulations at all, the legal frameworks will not allow this.

2. Agbaje. He seems to have waned with his unsuccessful contest in the last 14years , he is not bringing ideas that would shape or displace what we know. New ideas lacking

3. Salis surely not our type in Lagos state.

4Sanwo olu. Clearly shown he has exposure, competence , core knowledge of Lagos state and the skills required of a leader to take Lagos to greater height.

Sanwo Eko is the best amongst them all

ArmaniUhuru:
Godfatherism must die in Lagos. Get rid of apc and watch Nigeria rise again.

I pity your life if you continue this way.

You have labelled a very grave allegation on a family man you know nothing about, all in the name of supporting a party that I can bet you may not benefit from.

Please quit posting message that is not substantiated by a law court or a medical personnel in the state.

The man you spoke about, Sanwo Eko have done far more to touch lives of people in the stare than what Agbaje could ever imagine or achieve in history.

Sanwo Eko, our incoming Governor of Lagos state.

Venerable612:
All the things himself and yourself mentioned were done/started during this line of APC governorship administration.

He has not added anything new.

PS:

1. I am surprised though - we have a rail line running from Iju to Ebute meta... no is talking about renovating that and getting better trains... They are all interested in building a new one? Is it that those previous rail lines can’t be relayed and used by newer trains or they simply want to keep using those trains in a ‘mega city’? Something is fishy.

2. And I am disappointed APC is not considering investing in Lagos’s personal power grid. There is so much money to be made by the private and public sector if Lagos could define its on energy generation and distribution sector - so that Lagos could at least have near-24 hours power supply. Enough of building roads, rails and bridges- those are all basic government responsibilities.

You are very wrong on your comments above.

The rail line you mentioned ;Iju- ebute metta is a federal government infrastructure and not released to Lagos state Government to execute the rail transport system plan. Moreover, they have secured the approval from the administration of president BUHARI for that corridor.



For power, it has a lot of legal frameworks not tidied well by previous administration, which has make it difficult for the state to generate it's own power. But recently, Sanwo olu have started the conversation with DISCOs in Lagos to unravel the continued epileptic power supply experienced in Lagos state and have pledge to enable progress and development in that sector.

Please watch TV360 debate with Agbaje recently.

END OF DISCUSSION![/quote]Yes I agree totally with most of the points except for discourage UNIONISM ( you can't unionism is statutory ILO) .

Abolish medical trip abroad, Yes/ No. For areas the Country don't have capacity I will not support such.

Increase the hours of workers; are they slaves?

Timatayo1:
Useless labour Congress cowardly leader

They are not coward leaders but rather a proactive one who consider varied factors when taking a critical decisions like this that could cripple the economy.

The strike is to show the will of all workforce groups in the nation that the 30K is here to stay, no matter the intimidation from few GOVERNORS.

omohayek:
And by writing this, you've just provided the answer to your own question. The main reason why Nigeria's budget is so small is because it is an extremely poor country, and the reason why the country is poor is because the productivity of most Nigerians is extremely low. Seeing as the nation's transport infrastructure is in shambles, its electricity supply is inadequate and erratic, its educational system is a joke, and its macroeconomic policies are hostile to private enterprise, this poverty is in turn no surprise.

The other chief reason why the Nigerian government's budget is so small is because, unlike most of the other countries you list, few Nigerians pay any taxes, and the primary source of government income is still the same old 2 million barrels per day it has been over the last 47 years. Unfortunately for Nigerians, the real price of oil has not kept up with the 3% annual growth rate of the population, so the same revenue that was spent on 70 million 40 years ago must now cater for 190 million: I hope I don't need to spell what that means for quality of services delivered (which in Nigeria has never been good).

Very good analysis , but don't forget that leadership is key in optimizing our endowed resources for the development of the Nation.

Countries like Asian tigers started gradually to develop their nations with very little resources and they have made history today.

He is Sanwo Eko, the man of the MOMENT.

Our incoming GOVERNOR of Lagos state.

BlueRayDick:
The caption should have read

" Tinubu foregos collection of Toll fees on Lekki-Epe expressway for few hours to allow his Candidate campaign for the forthcoming Election''

Whether you like it or you dont, come next year he will be elected as our GOVERNOR in Lagos state.

Sanwoolu, the man of the MOMENT has been tested and trusted with resources and governance in which people of the state benefited immensely.

Agbaje on the other hand refuse to give back to the people he so much love to govern and campaigning with divisive slogan to win votes.

Our PVC 's are warning up to disgrace Mr loser, customer dadaani.

Vote sanwoolu for progress and development in Lagos state.

Axelrod:
I think the YPP lady is very intelligent!

Yes she is. She answered questions of the economy better than pdp.

Niorte:
This man is just promising everything. We have to be careful of one who tries to appeal to everyone because at the end, they deny everything they promise with excuses

You know absolutely nothing about SANWO EKO that is why. He is a man of his words to the letter I can bet you and he is here to implement and manage the strategic plans he formulated for Lagos state.

The man of the MOMENT, Sanwo Eko has been tested, his leadership style in various positions held in the past speaks volume.

Carmal90:
I think this will be the most fiercely contested election in lagos state since 2003

I hope you have played mortal combat before, the defeat of just kidding will surely be FATALITY and it will be so glaring for every to see.

Go and watch his interview on channels, TVC and LTV . You will be glad of what he is bringing to Lagos state.

Sanwo EKO is the man of the MOMENT and will surely deliver on his promise.

Jimi, customer dadani we know him to be an unserious and clannish at every elections he contested years ago.

I watched the interview of Sanwo olu today on channels TV and believe me, he has won so many hearts today as he articulate the strategic plan for Lagos state.

Sanwo Eko is focused and not ready to drag issues of personality, ethnicity card; that stunt growth and progress in the state.

Vote APC, Vote Sanwoolu as your next GOVERNOR of Lagos state.

cheaperstores:
Not so he's working tirelessly. He's been on radio and TV station, on socialedit attending to questions. His jingles are up in stations and posters and banner up too.

APC billed all 57 local government 20 million to advertise for Sanwo-Olu. They just run lagos like private business.

Talk to people about jimi even five people is okay. Posters is actually waste of funds which apc is doing

In your widest dream will just kidding become Governor of Lagos state.

Our incoming Governor, Sanwo Eko is the man of the MOMENT, with so much knowledge, exposure and intellectual prowess in leading the state.

Just kidding will be trounced bitterly come next year.

We lagosian knows the best man for the job.

Niorte:
How does that affect your life? Is his private business your business? Did he embezzle public fund?

I see you have nothing substantial to critic about him.

Sanwo-Tinubu has been part of the rot in Lagos since 15 years ago. Let him account for his stewardship.

When you put Nigeria and Lagos state side by side with indices like Governance structure, progress and development to measure achieved thus far, you will understand the magnitude of hatred and intellectual depravity displayed by you.

Soon, you will come and eat your vomit when SANWO EKO is sworn in as the GOVERNOR of Lagos state.

WritePal:
So tell us about Osun, Oyo, Ogun that your tribal parties, AD and ACN ruled? Why are you all obsessed about Lagos which was FG property and developed by SS oil money for 40 years?

It is obvious you are suffering from political indoctrination[b][/b]

WritePal:
Yes, Silly! All non-Yorubas in Lagos will vote Agbaje this time - urhobos, itsekiris, tiv, idoma, ikwere, anang, ibibio, efik, kwale, ijaw, isoko,, ogoja, ebi, igbira etc plus the few reasonable, non-tribal blinded Yorubas like you.

We will free Lagos finally from colonialism from the self-imposed Governor General of SW Lord Bola Lugard Tinibu.

You will soon go into hiding and shut your gutter mouth forever.

I won't bother dignifying you with a reply.

YOU WILL come and eat your vomit come next year when SANWO EKO is sworn in as Lagos state GOVERNOR.

He has some point layed out though, but it is not about abstraction on media, rather it is about grounded actions that SANWO EKO is bringing on board.

Sanwo EKO has been there and still on ground in bringing Lagos challenges to actualization.

The strategic planning and implementation plans articulated are what is keeping Lagos standing today, which SANWO EKO has been part of from the onset.

Just kidding thinks lagosians are carried away by talking about issues without proffering solutions well planned out to address inherent challenges that may come up during implementation. Well what does he know , than just kidding all the time.

Vote SANWO -OLU for progress and development of Lagos state.

WritePal:
Why can't you take time to read for once rather than rushing to spill your clouded sentiments. HE RESIGNED AS COMMISSION FOR ENERGY. READ THE LETTER, Damnit!

To the post, this is just Ambode flying the kite. The hand of Esau and the voice of Jacob. The now ex-commissioner was just echoing the grievances Ambode is not airing at the moment for fear of their colonial master. Ambode will pull the rug of their feet at the 11th hour. There's a reason Agbaje is confident of finally breaking Lagos free from the stranglehold of Lord Bolagard Tinubu, the the self imposed Governor General of the South West. That is why the colonial master too is worried about campaigning for Buhari at he center. He knows his stronghold of SW is under threat by the likes of Agbaje/Amobode in Lagos and Amosun in Ogun State.

VOTE JIMI AGBAJE FOR GOVERNOR LAGOS STATE #2019. For true progress and independent governance.

In your widest dream will just kidding become the Governor of Lagos state.

Do you think policies and programmes are just abstract without implementation plan put in place. Not in Lagos please.

Sanwo Eko is our incoming Governor, he has been tested and has ground appeal of people.

The man of the MOMENT SANWO EKO is waiting to be sworn in as Governor in 2019
