For better understanding, George Moghalu is the candidate backed by Peter Obi for the coming Anambra state governorship election. The bridge in question was completed and commissioned by Governor Fashola at the same time when Peter Obi was governor of Anambra state.

In 2023, Peter Obi used the picture of the same bridge for the cover page of his election manifesto. In 2025, his protege is using the same picture again for his governorship campaign. Not even a single picture of any legacy project done by Peter Obi while he was governor was found suitable to use for Moghalu’s campaign. They still had to come and steal the picture of a project in Lagos for their campaign.

There is also a bit of similarity between this Lekki-Ikoyi bridge and the ongoing Lagos-Calabar coastal highway. When the APC administration of Babatunde Fashola announced the award of the suspension bridge for about N29Billion that year, folks mostly from the south east made so much noise against the project. Several threads were opened on Nairaland to condemn the project just like they are doing to the coastal project now. However, they could barely wait for the bridge to be commissioned before they started using it to shoot films and documentaries. Now, both their messiah and his protege are using it to campaign in far away Anambra. By 2031 when the coastal highway is completed, don’t be surprised to see Peter Obi using it to campaign for his dead on arrival presidential ambition.

Obi must enter the discussion 🤣🤣

Anomini my friend, Tinubu as a governor has limited powers to enact any bill or influence tax bills in his state....

He managed the resources within him...from the revenue office to run the state, both through welfare and infrastructure. He did excellent well compared to Peter Obi as a governor in Anambra state.

You can tell that, he managed not just the resources but a population more than twice the population of Anambra state..... Yet you find things to criticize about him.

Why would a Lagosian compare Tinubu with Peter Obi?

At what point did Lagos have only twice the resources of Anambra as the population difference between both states?

How have the resources and population of Lagos changed in the last 42 years?

Do you think that the prodigal son would have returned to his noble father if he kept comparing himself with other pig farm workers?

The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.

Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.

The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.

Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”

The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.

Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.

He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.
