Tinubu understands that development is a long term project which 8 year’s administration can never achieve so that’s why he always hand pick his successor and his successor’s successor. When he is done with his 8 years all the ground work he is laying for Nigeria will now start coming alive. A lot of politicians know, that’s why some of them have been working and praising him all along even the one not in his party because he can pick anyone he knows understand development. You can all scream and shout as usual, that man won’t stop. Those in Oshodi
and other places in lagos shouted and wailed more than that when projects started.

Better to stay in Tinubu's Lagos than Obi's Anambra.

God that man survived

Enugurangers:
As confirmed by even my former governor. Chimaroke Nnamani aka Ebeano.

"Hailing Tinubu in the area of human capacity, Nnamani said those whom the former Lagos governor mentored had become giant oak trees in Niqeria's political firmaments.

He said, "When Bola Ahmed Tinubu was governor, Lagos State's IGR rose from 600 million naira per month to over 8 billion naira per month. He had an impressive track record as a governor; his state contributed more than 30 per cent to our country's GDP, accounted for more than 65 per cent of industrial investment in Nigeria"

Na tax collecting and statistics we go chop oga u never see anything 😂🤣😆

Tinubu transformed Lagos but.. dirt's, refuse bins, dust bins scattered on the floors all over the places and touts and agberos everywhere

Bovis:
They are not stating the truth but peddling disinformation and trying to rewrite the history of how Oshodi was modernised. Most of the actors that were involved in the sanitation of Oshodi are still alive if you want a true account of what happened

Bros, you no need to tell me about Lagos.

Nobody can lie to me because I saw what was on ground.

Tinubu, I rate his governorship administration 4/10

Fashola, I rate his administration 8/10

If Tinubu you support couldn't perform well as governor, what made you think he could replicate it at the national level?

The following below was what he did as governor, and now doing it as a president:
Loans borrowed, yet nothing tangible
Corruption the highest in the the country then and now in the world.
Gave cronies projects without bidding processes
Ethnicity and tribalism above merit and character
Proliferation of compromised people into power-sensitive positions

Health, agriculture, security, electricity, NOTHING. You can't give what you don't have.

Good products sells itself.

The only thing tinubu scarcely did was infrastructures. If he has built high-speed trains to connect modern towns and villages, I would have had a little sympathy to defend him.

Not saying Fashola was a saint.

You mean picking successors that will hand over the cookie jar of government coffeesto him every month?

By your logic, the successors should have turned Lagos to Dubai and Kyoto combined.

Eighteen years later, Lagos is yet to have a high-speed train system, functional waste management facilities and seasonal solutions to challenges of flooding.

Successor indeed!

that is the federal government's doings
Wharf and Tin can island are the only seaports where commercial goods and services are imported into the country. And this law was put by the federal govt. The day the port Harcourt, calabar and onitsha seaports are allowed commercial activities ehen, every eastern and northern business man would shift base to south south and south east.make una de enjoy this short term monopoly. If it take 50 years but one day a sane person will rule Nigeria

otipoju:
Then what is your problem. ..if we both agree that there was an existing public transport system and Tinubu invented nothing and only renamed an existing service like he always does.

You are asking me for pictures of the early and late 90's when camera phones started in Nigeria existing only in the late 2000's .

Shift abeg

Well said.

Apc supporters are brain camotosed.

Mumu comparism. Evil people at work. You can only manipulate the weak minds.
Go and browse about pace setter and their challenges.
Same thing Tinubu is doing in Nigeria currently is what he did in Lagos State when he came in. Foundation building. There was no Lagos and there is no Nigeria now. It is Tinubu who is busy laying foundation for a new Nigeria just like he did for Lagos state. Building at foundation level means nothing to ordinary people or occupants. They will only appreciate it when completed and habitable. The one who build a sturdy foundation is more important than the ones who complete it bcs foundation is everything.

givedemwotowoto:
You still carry lie enter a thread created to catch liars.

Even your fellow Tinubu supporters are calling for Lagosians to reject APC in Lagos, you’re still here peddling lies

https://www.nairaland.com/8689812/chains-must-break-why-june

Many of you are enemies of progress and that is why you find any bad news amusing....

Tinubu built lagos ... If it makes you puke, then puke.

Nobody will build a nation or a state to finish in 8yrs. It takes time....

Most development will start with policies and paving ways for other infrastructural development.

lightwind:


The way all of them claim to be Lagos indigene eh, even those from Iragbiji, Akute, Ogbomosho, Ijebu Ode .

Aside our countries former capital which is Lagos, other sw states be like 1 large village bro it's no joke it has been confirmed by different analysises.

I hope the real citizens from the host country you are currently living now are good to you, i mean your white neighbors, i hope they're not racist towards you ?

I have confirmed your IP doesn't show Nigeria here for me.

First, I'm not only an indigene of Lagos, but my forefathers were also part of the royal family in Lagos. My forefather was with King Kosoko when he was ruling Lagos. I know my history, unlike you trying to claim to be jew from Israel.
Secondly, I dare you enter lineage to do anything with my IP; you think I give a rat's ass about you? Na thunder go fire your behind.
You think you are talking to one of your fellow shallow clowns on NL?
Racist? This clown does not even know the meaning of what a racist is.

If you are from New York, you decide to move to Texas, then start to talk down to whatever they do in Texas, the real Cowboys will tell you to move your sorry behind back to New York/Yankee. That's what I just told you.
Same way you move from TX to NY and then try to tell them how to do things in NY, you will hear from the New Yorkers that you should go back to wherever you came from.
Especially people like you who don't even allow fellow tribesmen to do anything in your land as long as they are not from your area.
You are more tribalistic than anyone in Nigeria, yet you will be the first to cry tribalism, SPIT.
Go and worry about your enclave and stop poking your nose into what doesn't concern you.
You cannot write our history for us; that will never happen. We write our own history.

I have been doing IT before you were born, so that IP BS is complete BULL CRAP. Take that IP and shove it where the sun don't shine.

madridguy:
Sincerely, Tinubu didn't do any magic in Lagos State but what I can confidently say is that before Tinubu, I can count the number of South East people in our area in Lagos State, I can count number of students from the South East region in our class then but during Tinubu era, they start coming to our area and start having them in our classroom too.

The numbers suddenly increased when he announced free WAEC/NECO in Lagos State.

Tinubu didn't only build Lagos, he made it a welcoming state that every Nigerians starts coming to Lagos.

He deserves a special award.

Lagos was former capital...stop spreading lies... I was born and bred in lagos ...lived in lagos for over 40 yrs ... Alaba market, ladipo , aspanda, idumota were all markers dominated by the igbos ...stop the lies

Enugurangers:
He was Chief of Staff which is even better.
So name one person that Obi has mentored?

Tax collector yet Lekki free trade zone was his brain child, LAMATA was his brain child and so many other lagos agencies that he created.

So if a coach of a football team is struggling to beat opponents...he achieves nothing unique with the team... the team is just average ...but recognised due to its history ...great achievements by previous coaches ... then this particular coach that cudnt achieve anything leaves his position... then one of his technical crew takes over from him and they start to win titles...the former boss will now say its his blueprint that the present coach is using to win titles.. now u can see that u are a 🤡

95% of people from Ogbomosho, Ijebu Ode and Iragbiji who claims to be Lagos indigene, have made this same statement of yours about forefathers shit and so on you are not the first here when caught lying. So i tell you, you lie with boldness.

You're talking about tribalism, you forgot how same you here always talk down on Peter Obi and anything coming from the great Ndigbo land, you are always quick to find happiness in hurling insults on the people from that side. You think we don't know you.

Now, you see how Free and Happy you are over there in white mans land you are living and working sending money over here to your people in Nigeria which of course is not your country. Using free wi-fi. Is there anyone saying to you, go back to your country or go back to where you come from ?? Even though you are black man! No!

But everytime you come online on social media spaces especially on nairaland forum and on X telling your fellow country men and women to go back to their states, not even go back to your country, this is go back to your state! It's funny when you lots do this here. It doesn't show how educated you lots are or claims to be.

Look let me tell you, no REAL Lagos indigene, i mean 100% blooded real Lagosian will ever tell their fellow country men to go back to their states. Lagosians don't do that, they don't behave like that bro! This guy's are more civilized bro! They are different species of Yoruba. Remember that Tinubu is not from Lagos State, he is from Osun state.

Ttalk:
Just because you want your Obi to become President, you want to rub others achievement in the mud and you think the law of natural justice will reward a super failure like Obi?

Where is the Monorail Obi signed its MoU and promised would be delivered in 6years?

You robbed Fashola and Ambode of their achievements and falsely credited them to Tinubu, that’s the point here.

Anytime you see a Tinubu supporter accuse someone, look well, that’s exactly what they’re doing and the person they’re accusing is stopping them

OredoPikin:
This is it.
Because there was no social media when Tinubu was governor, Tinubu created and and heavily funded private media houses using public money to whitewash his administration. Since there were no alternative media to counter him, the propagandas and lies stays for a very long time.
Now he is president, everyone is now witnessing his administration failures, and since there is no media monopoly again to push another fake narrative (ofcos they have tried but it didn't stick).
So dey return to the old lies and propaganda of him building Lagos since at least that one sticked for a long time.
Their biggest mistake will be running to Tinubu time as governor, now the real truth will be revealed and to God who made me, we are ready
All that lies and propaganda will now be bursted

The funny thing is that they are campaigning with Fashola's achievements oooooo.

There is nothing they can use to campaign for Tinubu after 4 years as "president".

government controlled by you guys knows that West will be a wasted place without monopolizing certain things especially Sea Ports and International Airports.

Let the government allow regions/sub regions have their Sea Ports and functional International Airports. You'll see how the entire West will die off.

Yorubas from neighbouring states cannot stay back in the ancestral homes to survive, how much more of other Nigerians from afar?......these yorubas troop to Lagos because that's where the resources of the country are concentrated

Na people wey dem born few years ago dey believe that nonsense say that terrible man built Lagos.

Lagos was a complete mess before Fashola became governor.

If anybody built this Lagos, it is Fashola.

To cut the long story short, you were never interested in getting answers to your question

OredoPikin:
U mean I should open a thread of how a man came to plan a state that FCT for 77yrs😂
He became governor after 85yrs of the state existence and claimed he laid the foundation😂
Laugh wan kill me
Till today I can point to jakande achievement in Lagos but when we ask u guys for Tinubu achievement, you will say he laid the foundation, foundation of what?
LAWMA created in 1977 and renamed to LAWMA in 1991
Or LAMATA that was not his idea and did nothing under LAMATA except from giving them one building under the ministry of transport to stay.
From 2002 to 2007, 5yrs, Tinubu did not buy a single BRT bus
Did not do a single BRT lane
Did not do a single rail track under LAMATA.
So what exactly were the foundation he laid?

lagonovo:
To cut the long story short, you were never interested in getting answers to your question

You means the lies you tell yourselves 😂
Like he created LAWMA
LAWMA that Tinubu did not even know how it started or how the name LAWMA came about.
You guys lied for years that he created it.
That is what I should be reading ?
U are funny honestly

Nice deflection move right there

Deflection?
Mention one single thing Tinubu did in Lagos.
Lagos has 32 bridges approximately, Tinubu did not build a single one for good 8yrs as governor.
But yet to you guys, he built Lagos 🤣
See, all those lies then were allowed because there were no means to counter it.
Now we have social media and everything is already exposed
Tinubu was the worst governor to have ever governed Lagos
And today, he is currently the worst president Nigeria have ever had

Ttalk:
Look at what is coming out from a Harvard adventurer, I wonder why will somebody expect Tinubu to ',invent' transportation.

You fit deceive those wey dem born yesterday or those wey just come lagos.

No be people like me you go dey call dog as monkey for.

One of you said he created LAMATA as if it was novel idea and there was not an existing LMTS that was already running public transportation.

That kind of elementary sophistry no fit catch me.
Just like the new trains wey dey schack una as if trains no dey run daily for lagos as mass transit since the 80's when I don dey ride am.

Make una go sit down for one place.
Fact remains Tinubu as a governor of Lagos built nothing...wether school, bridge, hospital, roads, mass housing,or parks.

na I’m naija be like this under him ?

Bovis:
This poster has no knowledge of what it took to clean up Oshodi and its environment. I have a first hand account from many stakeholders and my friend Ademola Oshodi how the Tinubu administration compensated them with landed properties, jobs and skill acquisition. Tinubu literally laid the solid foundations that Fashola built upon

Ademola Oshodi is now a senior special adviser to the president and anyone in doubt can reach out to him to corroborate what I stated

LOL.

When did Oshodi start working with Tinubu and how did they meet?

You don’t know him as he’s not your friend.
