Many of you shouting lagos was capital territory have no knowledge of history. Even if you are still very young, check google, Lagos Island up to Surulere was capital. The rest was lagos state and built by lagos money. And secondly, federal government stopped new structures when capital moved to Abuja over 20 years ago. Since then Lagos development even became very fast and astronomical. Go and read young boy.
Old man can you please tell me who built the third mainland bridge that connected Lagos state. Though credits should be given to jakande and babangida.

You said Lagos money, can you please tell me the new things that was done to generate money in Lagos than the ones that have already been put on ground by the federal government before handing over, eg seaports, businesses, transportation and night life.

Why is Anambra a shithole?
really Anambra a shit hole? I didn't know that, because it will be hard to see a state that was completely devastated during the Biafran war to rise up from the ashes and surpassed many states in Nigeria with little or no federal government assistance. Apart from Lagos state I don't see any south western states comparing with Anambra in anything or whatsoever.

Just like the countless projects that useless and incompetent man abandoned, he canceled the 4th MB project and eventually abandoned it altogether.

Metro Rail is not finished because the useless man abandoned it for 4 years.

You, people, know nothing about Lagos, but you still add your lying mouth to embarrass yourselves. You need to stay out of Lagos business and mind your village activities,

it was only during Ambode that Lagos really worked according to the finances it generate, within just 4 years he did what others couldn't do for 8 years without borrowing, and it was during his time that the 4th mainland bridge really got a landmark.

Lagos Island was the Capital not Lagos State

The rest of Lagos State was under Awolowo’s Western Region

So it was awolowo that built the third mainland bridge and not federal government?

Nice development, but the Blue rail project by Tinubu’s CCECC have been dragging for years like the Lokoja-Abuja highway contract.Suddenly 2023 election is here, then they revisited it again.

A lots of Lagos feeder roads are in terrible conditions and needs more attention than this project. So why the haste to commence the 4th Mainland bridge when the afore major project has not been completed?

Thank you o.

Why not simply complete them one after the other.

Finish blue rail project first, then go to 4th ML bridge.
These people think that they are supergods.

Stop asking me foolish question. Who built the first niger bridge for you? And why has that not translated to increased IGR for Onitsha and Asaba? Do you not have federal presence in your states? Why have you not utilised that to increase business and IGR in your state?

In those days all Major Bridges were built by the Nigerian Government Including the ones at Jebba, Onitsha.,Idah, Lokoja


It was Awolowo that built Ikeja and it’s Surroundings out of a Thick Jungle that was Swarming with Antelopes, Monkeys , Leopards, Gorillas And Elephants
Into the Commercial Capital of the Western Region , Under Awolowo Ikeja Division included all the Lagos Coast outside Lagos Island

The Dream that made Lagos into an Economic Power was Awolowo’s Dream and in 1962 Awolowo was Jailed for that Dream






.Below is the 1962 Map Of Lagos

The dot at the bottom was where the Capital Was all the rest was under the Western Region

You can see that more than 97% of Today’s Lagos was in Awolowo’s Western Region

Before the arrival of Asiwaju, Lagos State is not as develop as it is now.

Under the leadership of Asiwaju and his boys, Lagos State is generating more than 500 billion as IGR.

Before the arrival of Asiwaju, Ikorodu, Epe, Badagry,Lekki Peninsula were not develop. It was after Asiwaju became the Governor this places started witnessing development.

Please click on that link and read about how Victoria Island was collapsing till it was rescued by Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Are these questions too difficult for you to understand and answer? Do you actually understand the questions I asked you?

Pls read the questions I asked again.

You mentioned Lekki Peninsula, Oshodi, Ikeja and Gbagada..hence my question:

Which of the Lagos state administrations developed these areas you mentioned?

You also claimed that Tinubu opened up every part of Lagos.

How did Tinubu administration open up almost every party of Lagos?

Was every part of Lagos closed before?

How is possible that Tinubu "installed" successors? Is Tinubu a democrat?

This is what have been fed to them... Instead of holding their leaders accountable,they won't do that...instead it's our own Leaders they will be abusing...I've challenged anybody on this platform to name any federal project in Lagos that similar projects is not sited in Kaduna by the federal government...

Before Tinubu, Lekki was a huge Jungle full of Crocodiles with a Strip Of Beach at the bottom

It was one of the Favourite hunting Grounds of the Crocodile Hunters many of whom were Of Epe Origin

In those days a Small Crocodile caught at Lekki, Ajah, Sangotedo area cost about N30

and had as much meat on it as a small goat

There's little to no economic activities going on in places like Ikorodu, Badagry and the Lekki Peninsula before the arrival of Asiwaju and his boys.

Without Asiwaju Victoria Island would have been covered by the Atlantic Ocean, but Asiwaju put an end to the Victoria Island getting washed away.

You are right.

When my dad car was stolen in 1995, nah somewhere around Ajah axis the car was retrieve back then. Most part of Ajah nah bush.

I wander why people don't like giving kudos to the APC Govt in Lagos for what they have done in Lagos.

Lagos State is far develop than how it was before the arrival of Asiwaju.

If you claim that Tinubu opened up every part of Lagos, then you are implying that every part of Lagos was closed before Tinubu became governor.

Once again, you are repeating yourself clearly showing you probably don't understand the question I asked or you simply don't have an answer.

The keyword here is "opening every part of Lagos".

Are the places you mentioned above "every part of Lagos"?

The instances you gave above, how do they translate to "opening every part of Lagos"?

In what capacity did fashola, ambode and Sanwo-Olu serve under Tinubu that makes them his boys?

Is there anywhere in the constitution that says that I am supposed to have a candidate?

Who has the constitutional responsibility of having a candidate?
