Babatunde Raji Fashola will be leaving Lagos state better than he met it, True or False ?

The thing is that he is not a Saint, but I will have to say that He is a very good administrator, although with his flaws which is peculiar to human nature.

Let's take Abia as a case study with its Mega City "Aba" in a totally collapsed state, anybody who inherits the governance of Abia and commences rebuilding of Aba will need more than 8 years and 5 Trillion Naira to repair the city of Aba, which has continuosly decayed since 1983 December. That's 31 years of Decay.

Fashola is not a Magician and can't be everywhere at the same time. He inherited a rotten Lagos and he sure has done so much.
In the case of Akwa ibom, with the Highest Federal allocation which is usually ten times that of other states and in a virgin undeveloped area, tarring roads and building stadium will be eaier than built up but rotten areas where u will have to demolish, pay compensation, go to court, clear debris revamp site, prepare it and start start afresh.

Our people expect so much without giving much.
I urge you to come to Akwa Ibom and see that 98.5% of Akwa Ibom people are emmeshed in poverty. I now wonder how they will grow with all the elephant projects and billions that will be committed to their maintainance. Akwa Ibom state is not debt free, for our information.

Fashola has over 20 million people to manage, in this number are civilized people, crazy people, foreigners, military, village to lagos first timers, touts and all sort of characters.
This population generates chaos, mega noise, air pollution, solid waste and sewage and other sorts of nuisance, managing them and building infrastructure silmutaneously is aa herculean task even with your trillions.
A road is asphalted today and Lagosians need to use it today today without even letting it set.
Upon this huge population, Lagos has stayed relatively low on crime rate and kidnapping, than the so celebrated Akwa Ibom.

Fashola is not a Saint, Yes and Agreed but he is good.

I am yet to see Governors who have done well as Governors who inheritted rot and cleaned it up to a great extent;

Fashola inherited a rotten Lagos.
Amaechi inherited a collapsed Rivers.
Chime inherited a Ran-down Enugu
Oshiomhole inherited a backward and finished Edo
Okorocha inherited a collapsed Imo
Akpabio inherited an already forming Akwa Ibom, many projects at 60% completion stage and a Revise and greatly Improved Revenue source, yet his achievements are not commensurate with what Akwa Ibom has earned so far.

Whoever that will inherit rotten, collapsed, finished and backward Abia is in deep trouble as there is a major task ahead.

People like you need to have their brain check. Who was the governor before Fashola ?

Are there no role model governors in your party? Or you think it is a practical joke that Fashola is regarded as 'class captain'?

I won't waste my time reading the mindset of a debased ediot.

Haba, I will mentions 3 from 3 geopolitical zone. Just because they don't spend money on propaganda does not mean they are not better

Lamido of Jigawa in the north

Chime of Enugu in the South East

and Apiaibo in Akwa Ibom in the South South
Fine! let's take it one by one. First, Fashola vs Lamido. We can start from Vocational schools and Education generally, from there we go to Roads constructions which must be well labeled. Thanks

Aderostock:

The energy and synergy you are using to criticize Fashola and Lagos would have been used to make your state governor to sit well knowing fully well that Abuja, Akwa Ibom, Enugu, Cross river, etc have all banned the use of Okada on their major roads.
Sorry to bust your bubble; Fashola is my state governor and as a tax payer and a law abiding citizen, I have every right to criticize him on policies that negates the wholesome development of the state. With the recent oil windfall and unprecedented IGR, it is ironical, the poor in the state has multiplied. What's is the usefulness of banning Okada without a working alternative? What has the people living in mainland done wrong to deserve the kind of neglect currently being experienced? Please, what has he really done via his policies to protect the poor and the weak in the society? Sane argument please and no insults

Is he my father? Even if he is my father, if he does something wrong, I will say it unlike some of you people who have so much bought into rubbish regional/religion sentimentality that has been the sole problem of this country.

I am not a party person, if someone is good in PDP/APC, they get my praise and vice versa.

Even though Fashola is slightly above average, he is still the best this country has to offer, no thanks to the rotten folks we have in government. I must admit it feels good seeing a lot of the GEJ crew raising up issues like these, one thing I just want is that once you are done with this thread open another one and raise similar issues concerning the government at the centre. That sounds fair, doesn't it?

Stop saying that. Stop picturing Nigerians as re.tards. How can Fashola be the best this country has to offer. Do you not believe even you can do better ?#

Already Apiabo of Akwa Ibom has beaten Fashola hands down

Lamido of Jigawa with WAAAAAYYYYYYYY lower resources has surpass Fashola

No! Fashola is the bone of the contention here. let's leave it that way. Fashola is not just a governor, he's a role model, an exemplary leader, an inspiration leader, a principle- centred leader.

Though lagos state poses a great challenge as regards development and makinh changes to any1 that intends to lead, Fashola's administration is sooo soo overrated...painted nd packaged by the media...Plus the fake outward countenance of many civil servants..(who know the obvious) but choose to live under d deciet being propergated to the masses. Fashola tried....buh boone he is overrated.

Go and check the meaning of try and come. Mention the names of the streets and shall gladly engage you and tell you what he has done in Alimosho LG. thanks as I await your response

Kindly tell us what he has done since u seem to reside there, i only visited for a wedding and in the course of which we drove around the areas I mentioned and likewise asked questions from residents. An okada rider and some residents specifically told me (don't know if its true) they were abandoned cos the area is pro-PDP.

I'll advise you stop praise-worshipping politicians if you want them to truly perform and serve the people that elected them to office. Sucking to politicians will only embolden them to steal and mismanage resources meant for development and such criminal acts aint exclusive to APC.

So,i am not trying to demonise your fashola rather notifying of an urgent need to do the needful cos people in those areas deserves more of dividends of democracy.

How is Alimosho pro- PDP? Where's the deputy governor of Lagos comes from? The honourable house of representative ' YAYI' comes from where? School of Nursing built by Fashola is located where?

Grab your dictionary and look up for the word 'role model'. The first governor in Nigeria to set up State Security Trust Fund in 2007, three months he assumed office that almost all governors have emulated. This what's called Exemplary!

His infamous intervention on the Ekiti election poll result gave him away as a less than honest and blatantly partisan leader. If one believes in the power of the people, then we must respect the electoral mandate as expressed by the people irrespective of who the beneficiary is. His celebration of victory in Osun while rubbishing the mandate in Ekiti State was not only graceless, self-conceited, but out rightly hypocritical; He seems to be saying by the two reactions, that only when his party wins is the result of an election authentic and a reflection of the true aspiration of the people. Well, he is wrong. On this I urge him to learn from how leaders in Europe and America react to election defeat.

The governor that has built more courts than any in Nigeria. facts! The first governor to establish the 'Office of the public defender' an institution created to help the less privilege free of charge. The governor that obeys the traffic lights and stops his commissioners and aides not to use Siren. He's a principle- centred leader
