Lagos Governor Sanwo-Olu Spotted Wearing N195Million Wristwatch At Davido’s Wedding Amid Hardship, Widespread Hunger

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, was spotted wearing a luxury wristwatch valued at over N190 million (approximately $127,000) at the wedding of Davido and Chioma Rowland on Wednesday.

The Patek Philippe World Time Chronograph 5930G-11 watch was identified by SaharaReporters through a search on Chrono24, a prominent online marketplace for high-end timepieces.

The Governor's extravagant accessory has raised eyebrows, given the economic challenges facing Lagos State and Nigeria as a whole.

This translates to approximately N195 million, based on the current exchange rate of N1,540 to $1.

Nigeria has been grappling with revenue struggles, unemployment, and underdevelopment, amidst concerns over the judicious use of public funds by officials.

Governor Sanwo-Olu has faced scrutiny for his luxury tastes, having been spotted with high-end wristwatches on multiple occasions, sparking questions about his stewardship of public resources.

In 2023, Governor Sanwo-Olu was seen wearing a Patek Philippe wristwatch valued at approximately N160 million, sparking controversy amidst widespread poverty in Lagos State and Nigeria as a whole.

This luxury purchase has raised questions about his priorities as a leader, especially given the recent meeting of southern governors to address the growing economic hardship in the region.

Furthermore, Lagos State is among the most indebted states in Nigeria, making the governor's extravagant expenditure on personal items all the more concerning.

Poster boy of the drug addict.. the massive sleaze of corruption in lagos since 1999 would be found out if any other party wins the state. Hence, the tight hold of the state by Tinubu

Good leaders pattern their lifestyle to the reality of the day by trimming down their opulence and complacency.

Doing the above will signal to the people that such leaders are humane and sympathetic.

Government money is the best money to steal!

Why you can still see that, even the wealthy Adeleke’s still joined politics, and a Tinubu will still seek re-election

You steal it at will and the people you stealing from, will still be clapping for you.

Being a politician in Nigeria is the best thing that can happen to you!

He should have like 50 of them gifted by contractors. Sanwo-Olu does not have to pay for watches. People like Dangote, Otedola, Okoya and other billionaires would gift watches like that.

There's nothing to learn from Kenya, our struggles are different. Kenya is a country fighting for democracy, Nigeria is a jungle and not a country. Any pekem in Nigeria right now is towards a civil war and separation.

He's a governor and is entitled to gifts from several folks. Anyone, other governors, senators, celebrities and others could have gifted him the watch.
Plus, he wasn't broke before becoming a governor and could have bought it himself with his money.
Nothing wrong with him wearing it.

These politicians have so much to learn from Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg. For being the governor of the richest state in Nigeria, God has elevated you to a position that millions of your peers can never attain.

So, you don't owe anyone to prove any point or impress them and shouldn't use state resources to buy and wear luxury items. God made you governor of a poor country for a reason.

See them paid obidient ipob Igbo, they will see governors from all other tribe except that of their Igbo tribe.

I am patiently waiting for the fool that will quote n query how I know they are all igbos when none of them can or as denied he or she is igbo. Only their politicians are saints, they do not loot yet we have Ekweremadu Peter Peter Obi, Orji Kalu, Theodore Orji Ikpeazu among them. Saint my flat ass.

Dont mind those IPOB lout. I remember it was same way they hounded Buhari when he wore moderately expensive shoes. Shoes of all things that could have been gifts from even Buhari's grandkids.

They hate without reservation and to infinity. They will always hypocritically kill and go after the leaders of others ( Kaduna Nzeogwu "Igbo coup" ) while sparring their own.

Best thing Tinubu can achieve is split the b1tch called Nigeria into regions. Tired of those people and their unending and wretched 24/7 hatred and targeting of Yorubas.

Can you prove he used State resources to buy anything?

One of the biggest ironies of life, particularly pertaining to Nigerians, is when even so-called educated men don't realize how hatred and lack of objectivity towards others has rendered their education worthless and incapable of helping them think critically and logically.

If another educated person calmly ask you to prove conclusively that Sanwo Olu used State resources to buy a watch or face going to prison, would you accept such a challenge?

Why did your IPOB kinsman, who accused Fashola of "writing judgment" for the election petition tribunal, flee and abandoned his brother to face arrest rather than prove his wild and hateful claim when the law came for him?

It's a cheap and modest wristwatch for his status. You wouldn't want your governor wearing something that will make him thirty minutes late for important appointments, this one tells the time accurately
