The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress has berated the Peoples Democratic Party for asking Governor Akinwunmi Ambode to probe his successor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN).

The APC, in a statement by its Publicity Secretary, Mr. Joe Igbokwe, on Tuesday, said the people of Lagos would not take the PDP seriously if it continues to make baseless and unrealistic accusations.

The APC said it was not a surprise that the Lagos PDP has continued to demonstrate traits that show it as a “jesting group which has no meaningful thing to contribute to the growth and progress of Lagos.”

The statement read, “As laughable and childish as the PDP’s latest rant is, we dare say that we are not in the culture of dignifying confused thoughts of a cabal that has yet to play down their continued horrible fate in the hands of Lagosians.

“With the historic defeat of the PDP at the centre where they ran Nigeria to total bankruptcy and near collapse even with very bounteous oil earnings, it is not difficult to locate why Lagos PDP is hit by a gale of total confusion that finds expression in the inchoate and disoriented ranting it spews out these days as press statements.”

The ruling party said that its achievements in Lagos in the last 16 years were visible to even the blind.

It said it was hypocritical of the Lagos PDP to criticise Fashola for doing well but continued to praise the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan who emptied the nation’s treasury.

The APC said the Lagos PDP was only crying because it had lost its source of funding which was the Jonathan-led administration.

It said, “Let us recall the sordid events of the last electioneering period when out of desperation, the PDP practically relocated to Lagos, where former President Jonathan unleashed billions of illicit dollars and pound sterling to buy Lagosians.

“He procured hoodlums and touts of all shades and mobilised them to lay siege to Lagos. He commissioned a very dangerous hate politics aimed at greatly dividing Lagosians along tribal lines, commissioned a band of religious merchants to sell the rotten PDP message but these not only failed him and the PDP woefully in Lagos, it also failed to prevent the huge defeat he and the PDP suffered in the general election.”

NOT news! We already knew that... they are members of the same fraternity where President Buhari is the grand cadi!

Lolzzzz....e no dey possible na!*Modified*We are always here ranting and forming political Gurus.Have you ever knelt down and pray for our dearest country and its leadership?

In other news, Fashola is free to go without checking whether he has skeleton in his wardrobe.....hahahah....

Probing fashola means probing tinubu which means probing Ambo. .it is not that complex. He won't go there.

no time, loads of work to do. unlike some wike still ranting about Amechi bla bla bla...

If we have strong, apolitical institutions, the threat and public demand for probe by every successive govt would become irrelevant. Only strong institutional reforms can save us from the recklessness and impunity of political office holders.

Funny caption.

But Buhari should probe Jonathan These politicians must be silly.

Jimmy was the only one that would have probed Fashola and Tinubu, I guess Lagosians missed their chance. Ambode would take Lagos where Aregbese took Osun.

At present, Lagos state owes 33.86 per cent of Nigeria's total sub-national external debt.
Enjoy the change.

He wont, as long as tinubu is still alive.

He shooouuuld? Instead for him to start working he is chasing shadows

Can PDP do Such? In Kiss Danile Voice:Laye Laye Laye Baby ko jor

Wike is settling scores

Thief de catch thief?

Fashola is the biggest propaganda fraud of the last 8yrs.

Now lets leave Propaganda aside..... I need someone to outline 3 key things fashola did that points to ingenuity

Lagos state has the highest IGR in the country yet resposnible for over 40% of total national local debts

For a state that generates over 40 billion naira monthly from IGR and allocations, Where are the capital intensive projects embarked upon by Fashola's admininstration?

Lagos state is already a commercial hub before Fashola became governor.... how did Fashola improve the commercial attractivesness of lagos?...What policies aimed at attracting investors was put in place by Fashola?

What jobs were created by Fashola's govt (dont mention Lastma) and how did his govt support the middle class or SMEs?

Fashola fixed few roads in Ikoyi, VI, Ikeja and planted flowers, so did Sullivan Chime of Enugu, Akpabio of Akwaibom, Kwankwaso of Kano, Peter Obi of Anambra.... etc; what makes him stand out?

Increasing tax rates and imposing levies on okada riders, shop owners etc is no ingenuity for raising IGR.... What exactly did he do?

Does deporting Nigerians in Nigeria and dumping them under a bridge in the wee hours of the morning sound like an act of a sound mind?

As a matter of fact, people like Fashola should not be allowed anywhere close to this current govt. Fashola's understanding of governance only support the elites which is averse to the touted Buhari's govt for the masses.

Fixing an existing road and tolling it is the height of insensitivity..... and the first in Nigeria by a state government. Imagine if every state government follows the Fashola template by tolling roads built using tax payer's money or allocation accruing to a state.... we would have about 25 tolls in akwa-ibom, 20 in enugu, 23 in anambra....etc.

Fashola and Amaechi led the governors to demand and share the Soverign wealth fund which led to crash of our economy

Fashola filed a suit against signing the Freedom of Information Bill in Lagos state

Unfortunately, we Nigerians hardly reason beyond our noses... and that is why propaganda sells

Fashola looked like a performer because he took over from a a failed Tinubu under whom Lagos collapsed. The immense fraud under his govt must be probed.

Good a thing they know he(Fashola) is not innocent.

he wont. tribalism will not allow him to do it.

Joe Igbokwe the man without identity... A man that lacks ideology. How did this your reply serve as a reponse to PDP asking for Fashola to be probed?
