I could not agree more. Lagos as a Nigerian state and Fashola as a Governor can never dismiss the name TINUBU. He may be corrupt in some ways but still he is a magician who survived the pressure of PDP (especially that of OBJ and his dog EFCC). Mind you, Lagos was the only AC state at the beginning. Imagine OBJ against Fashola (Being a SAN is different from being a slick politician). I can say without Tinubu there is no Fashola in the first place. The BRT buses started with Tinubu on his way out. Fashola is just (to a large extent) more active, transparent and straight than Tinubu but without the political talent. Fashola, more to why he is better than Tinubu, doesn't just spend lavishly.
I'm still worried, though, about who would replace Fashola on his way out!

ASUU cares. If its true those leading ASUU strike have their children studying abroad and not just a SETUP by the FG, and they are still fighting to ensure FG gives universities funds necessary to improve or build basic infrastructures and other needs, would you say don't care?

There are points brought up by Redman44 which had been on my mind -these funds if considered by FG, will not improve anything as long has corruption still abounds within universities. EFCC would CERTAINLY have something(actually a lot) to do in this area instead of try to impress the press. Lecturers need a new mentality and attitude towards their jobs (They are the ones who have the biggest part in making these students the products they should be).



ASUU should put their heads together and come up with a good way to go about this (the strike looks like it will make a laughing stock out of them if FG does nothing and parents and students pressure harder for their future -e.g like in ogbronx post, NYSC service will be hindered for some of these students )
