I knew it, Fashola would be the most corrupt Governor in Nigeria's history. This has been confirmed by an impartial and international body. God help this country. Amen.

abacusCm:
How did you collect from pdp?

I don't even know where their office is

duni04:
Lol this is just ridiculous! When Jonathan and his ministers steal, nobody says its a societal problem. When Tinubu corners the assets of Lagos, then its a societal problem, nothing to do with Tinubu? Just too ridiculous

But the topic clearly talks about Lagos state as the most corrupt state and not the Lagos state govt as the most corrupt govt. I think they're two different things

kekakuz:
lagosians are satisfied with the tinunbu empire so they are not asking question. they have been blinded buy the veil of PDP hatred so they are OK with whatever tinunbu /fahola wants for them. no questioning no investigation.

by the way let me take this chance and this space and this opportunity and this time to educate those that are shouting Jonathan is corrupt
what is corruption.
is stealing corruption
can a president fight corruption.
is corruption a crime

corruption is a part of human nature. the tendency not to do the expected. a kind of defiance and an act of being unethical.its totally natural and can be controlled.

is stealing corruption.
well its important to draw the line between crime and corruption. stealing is purely a crime and a graduated form of corruption. corruption is not necessarily punishable but crime is. so if someone steals,let's leave it to the law enforcement agency to do their job.

can a president fight corruption.
everyone in a democratic setting is gilded by law. especially a country like Nigeria that operates a bicameral legislature. so it is left for the constitution to spell out what is punishable or not. if the law state that a director must account for their monthly spending and he refuse or is found to have stolen,you don't need the president to tell EFCC or the police to do their job.
asking a president to fight corruption is like telling him to be a dictator and interfere with the judicial process.then he has the power to accuse anyone and punish. then absolute power will corrupt.


finally how do we fight corruption.
we have seen the Nigerian law makers concern themselves with irrelevant oversight functions where they even ask for bribe in the process. these are supposed law makers that are meant to strengthen the constitution as the only true tool to tackle corruption.
if our laws clearly spells out how the treasury should be managed and it States clear punishments, if the constitution gives every Nigerian the right to question the government on its spendings.if the constitution mandates the governors and chairmen to make public. its monthly spending,then corruption will be fought squarely.

sadly the man that tried to put these things in place and respect the judiciary by organising town Hall meetings and national conference is being accused of leading a corrupt government. not knowing that we are the ones creating a favourable condition for the cultivation of corruption.

instead we are busy asking for someone who will handpick people and punish them at will.forgething that we run a democratic government and must respect the judiciary.

you and all the 171 people who liked this jargon you wrote must be mentally deficient. Corruption is not a crime!!! I wish I could see you face to face I'll give you a piece of my mind. Half-wit.

This has been the elephant in the room. To register a car in ikeja adds so much money to fashola and tinubu. What about all the task forces which tinubu controls? To think that fashola and tinubu accuses other Nigerians of corruption is rich coming from them.

What about Aso rock its self. 60 trillion?

Crap! Next.

Before 1999, Tinubu had none of these:
1. Oriental Hotel
2. Falomo Shopping Complex
3. First Nation Airline
4. Lekki Concession Company
5. Apapa Amusement Park
6. Maiyegun Land Project
7. De Nation
8. Renaissance Hotel
9. Tejuoso Market (Joint ownership)
10. Ikeja Shopping Mall
11. TV Continental
12. Converted Lagos Poly land for TVC
13. Owned NNPC Office building in Lagos
14. Radio Continental
15. Owned School of Nursing building in Lagos
16. Tax Collector of Lagos State (Alpha Beta)
17. Wife is a member of the National Assembly
18. Son-in-law is a member of the National
Assembly
19. Daughter is the President-General of Market
Women Association in Lagos
20. N4 billion government financed property for self
at Queens Drive, Lagos.
Tinubu acquired all of the above and many more
not listed after he became Governor of Lagos
State, first in 1999 and won his second term in
2003. He remains Governor Emeritus of Lagos,
controlling the State's treasury through his protege
Governor Fashola.
He is greedy and may forfeit all, if he doesn't play
ball. You read me right, people! He may lose
everything if he declines to play ball with President
Jonathan.
Everyone knows Tinubu abandoned his party's
candidate, Nuhu Ribadu to support the PDP
candidate in 2011. Yoruba, however, did not really
buy into his support for Jonathan in 2011. We just
voted Goodluck because we were against Gambari.
Ribadu and Buhari being Gambari did not just cut it
for the Yoruba at the time and even more so now.
Yet, not many of you still recollect Atiku's interview
shortly after he was defeated by Yar'Adua in 2007.
According to the Turaki of Adamawa, Tinubu
supported and funded the campaign of late
President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua while the AC had
a presidential candidate.
Tinubu supported Yar'Adua of the PDP while his
party, the AC had a presidential candidate (Atiku)
because he knew Obasanjo will use the powers of
incumbency to rig the election for Yar'Adua as
President. To avoid the possibility of ending up in
prison under Yar'Adua, Tinubu secretly funded
Yar'Adua's campaign. Tinubu is a political dealer
and not anywhere near a political leader.
Political observers are abreast of Tinubu's game
plan with Buhari. He believes US, UK, Obasanjo and
Babangida are on board with Buhari's presidency.
So, he is willing and ready to put all his eggs in
one basket over # JihadistBuhari and ready for any
eventuality. He thinks with America's support,
Buhari will win and he (Tinubu) will stay relevant
and in control of the Yoruba economic wealth.
However, Jonathan, the President they all loved to
call clueless has the support of the Eastern power
blocs -Russia and China. He will bring down the
house on everyone of them. We are likely to end up
with Ukraine but Tinubu and Co want an Ivory
Coast scenario.
At the close of the day, if Nigeria unravels without
a well coordinated central command and control
outside Tinubu's and Obasanjo's groups in
Yorubaland, the two most hated figures in
Yorubaland right now, unknown militia Yoruba
groups will take over the affairs of the Yoruba
states and provinces the minutes Nigeria is
dissolved. They will not break up the control of any
area under them without a fight. Tinubu and
Obasanjo will surely not be in the commanding
height of things in Yorubaland. Former thugs,
assassins and criminals will surely run things
unless the Yoruba Obas and leaders of thought
work out plans before rererun.
The above scenario is definitely not static. It is
being speculated that after the expected defeat of
Buhari on 14 February, Tinubu will ask Gambari to
hold fire pending the gubernatorial election on 28
February. He will then negotiate with President
Jonathan for a soft landing to allow him control
the Lagos State through Ambode as the sole
condition under which he will prevail on Buhari and
his boys, Boko Haram to cease all hostility against
Mr. President and his government.
If Jonathan refuses to negotiate, but insists on
Agbaje as Lagos State Governor, Tinubu will
activate the terror cells in Yorubaland in
conjunction with Boko Haram in the North on or
before February 28 but definitely not after May 29.
Many of you shouting Sia Buhari are just a game in
the hands of the Yoruba-APC. The real change of
the Yoruba people remains change from unitary
system to regional parliamentary system. This
change can only be possible under Jonathan.
On February 14 when you get to the polls,
# VoteJonathan

Bro...u missed the point. ..TOTALLY. ..if Tinubu got all these u listed illegally and he is still working free then ...ITS GEJ THAT IS THE FAILURE!!!.


He appoints CJN,IG of police and chairman of EFCC...if for 6yrs that GEJ has been president he hasn't appointed the right people that successfully prosecute Tinubu and his kind....then its GEJ THAT IS THE FAILURE!!!QED

I disagree

neocortex:
Therefore , let GEJ continue with his development stride.

Yes o...... Its GEJ all the way.

tonytony208:
hmm...what a smooth attempt at cover up!

Wait o. Sebi buhari said he will develop Nigeria? Does that mean d development promised by buhari will also come with corruption? Then what happens to buhari's "i will pite kwarofson"? Gone with d wind?

What anyone with half a brain can see is dat lagos is the most corrupt state in Nigeria and lagos is an apc state. Which means tinubu and fashola, his pet, are very corrupt. and to think these 2 thieves are the ones leading d shout of "change"! Apc is hypocritical.

Buhari lied under oath, that alone has exposed his corrupt nature.

This index is even corrupt and composed by corrupt minds. If lagos is the most corrupt state what can u say about my state 'BENUE STATE' where the is so corrupt that even the atmosphere is beging him to be considerate. PDP is the worst group in Nigeria
