I did that job for 8 years and part of what helped me was that I was chief of staff to a governor. I saw it up close. But even then, that wasn't enough.

So just following a governor, being a cameraman and then watching me for 8 years, you think you'll now be a governor? You are not ready! Come to our leadership school; you are not yet ready.

And that's why you will see, their adverts, they are focusing on 51 billion that Lagos is generating, but they don't see the immigrant population that is coming in everyday. The bigger the prosperity, the bigger the problem.

So their party sees only money, they don't see people, they don't see responsibilities.

Do you want them to come and touch that money?

My attention has been drawn to disparaging statements made by my Boss, former Governor of Lagos, Babatunde Fashola earlier today at an event in Lagos. He reportedly referred to me as a cameraman who is not ready to govern Lagos.

While this may come as a shock to many, who may have heard me speak well of him and his achievements in Lagos, despite being the flag bearer of the main opposition party in the same Lagos, let me quickly signpost a reminder that this is the season of calumnies and the APC are expectedly under pressure to sell their unenviable records to the now very discerning electorates of Lagos. There is clearly a brief to all the beneficiaries of the status-quo to publicly show where their support lie.

In June of 2020, an extract from BRF’s condolence message to me on the loss of my mum, in black prints, states: “your very inspiring life story…turned into a ladder for educational success, entrepreneurial acumen and visionary leadership aspirations” it is just a few weeks to elections and the story has suddenly changed.

Records must be kept straight however, especially for varying audiences who may be misled by my very dear Boss and former Governor of Lagos.

While I insist that there is absolutely nothing untoward about being a cameraman, and I must apologize to hordes of cameramen out there who have made a mark for themselves in their craft and may feel smeaerd by my respected Boss's remark, I was never a cameraman.

As a matter of fact, I was absorbed into the service of government of Lagos State Broadcasting Service as a Reportorial and Editorial Executive, and camera handling was certainly not the professional services I rendered to BRF, and the Lagos state government under his watch.

I really don’t know what it is with my Oga (Boss) and cameras lately…this is reminding me of that famous missing camera he magically found at Lekki toll gate, the scene of the Endsars massacre.

BRF has my respect still, nothing will change that. Personally, I can’t wait to show the residents of Lagos that a lot more can be achieved way beyond what their celebrated over N50b revenue is currently doing, under the watch of a truly independent Governor that has no ties to a godfather’s apron strings.

We will break Lagos free and my Boss, BRF will be proud of our achievements!

We are aware Fashola ... He just wants people to see u as just camera man

As far am concerned, never Again APC

Good reply

Wait o. Any news on that found camera in Lekki toll gates by Fashola back then? Comedians everywhere. Much respect to Fashola though

Tinubu urchins & APC politicians has finally made the devil (Lai Mohammed) look like a saint…

Ehn ehn? So jandor is really running for Governorship? People get money to waste sha.

Fashola and camera

Still baffled me how a perceived main opposition party will nominate this unserious character like Jandor as their governorship candidate. To make the matter worse, he pick another unserious comedy filled brain as deputy.

To govern a state like Lagos? Well, who knows he could be a candidate sponsoring by Tinubu.

My guy no worry yourself.

Even if you were a cameraman, be the examplar of the excellence that cameramen can attain.

You see, this is my problem with Fashola: always sounding intelligent but sometimes his intelligence becomes his Achilles tendon. How can you berate someone and set a ceiling for them because they were once your staff?

What Fashola has done with that careless talk is to reaffirm people's suspicion of the fascism in APC, where the child of a nobody is never expected to become somebody.


Go Jandor, even though you are not my candidate, but please make history.

If the camera man will bring the much desired change. So be it.

AGENT FASH has started talking anyhow like FFK and KEYAMO


Well am not surprised at all😂, na the same rope tie them

Don’t mind minister of darkness and pot holes

Good reply

Very good reply devoid of bitterness

So what's the big deal in being a cameraman?

Zelenski was a commedian...

Fàshola is just being a fool.

BESIDES, WHAT VALUES HAS THEIR SO-CALLED LEADERSHIP SCHOOL OFFERED THE PEOPLE?
IS THE PRESENT STATE OF THINGS GOOD?

Fashola that stole lagos blind,he used 125m to drill borehole of 250k. He said electricity is not a rocket science but has failed abysmally since buhari gave him the job of fixing power sector.

A Whole Guber Candidate of PDP trying to defend himself that he was NEVER a Cameraman

Omo, see uppercut o. See as dis guy take Fashola him Boss catch better cruise. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Detective Fash just allowed this guy rubbish am just for nothing o..

U should have replied fashola telling him there is dignity in labour and who says a cameraman cannot become a governor or anything he/she desires? Fashola jst dey fall my hand dis days

masterfactor:
As far am concerned, never Again APC

There's a different between voting for competence and voting with bad belle. So far so good, if APC is the worst ever, they deserve Lagos. Sanwoolu deserves 2nd term.

Which can mumu reply be this🙄
