If Fashola stole money let him be prosecuted.

But it would do Ambode mush good to avenge his benefactor; Tinubu with some decorum.

I voted for this man Ambode cos of paceivied brilliance of his. But he is now showing that he is only there on a revenge mission.

He should rather set up a probe panel to probe his predecessor in office rather than washing their dirty linen on social medial. Some wisdom please.................. Tired of all these noise. Let him start work and give result to the people that voted him to office while the probe is going on.

Fashola is not being accused of anything. It is surprising that on one hand some of us call for transparency and accountability in government and yet turn around to call it a witch-hunt. These projects are all approved and completed, hence there is no reason why LASG tenders board shouldn't put them on its website. It is left for those who see anything fishy to come out with their proof, rather than trying to set the former governor against his successor.

Before you blame Tinubu or Ambode, it was Fashola himself who gave the directive that contracts bidded, awarded and excuted be published on the website.
the 139million borehold, na gold them take do the tanks?
The pipes n pumps na diamond crested?
The ground wey de borehole was drilled was it rocky?
Bobo inflation of contracts is a very big form of corruption.

Thank you my brother. How can this country grow when the s.tu.pid Nigerian masses will continue to defend these animalistic politicians who deny them a decent life by stealing public funds. All because of the crumbs thrown their way by these accursed politicians.

If Fashola, the poster boy of good governance and exemplary service has been as dishonest as this, you can imagine how bad the actual record of all his fellow hypocrites - Amaechi, Oshiomole, Rochas & co.

The best quality borehole with a large storage tank and everything is approximately ₦1million.
₦139 million will install 139 best quality boreholes at 139 hospitals.

Image how many boreholes without tanks that money could get.

Fashola, this is robbery.

I have always been reasonable on this site since 2009. It's only those who do not know the effect of unchecked corruption to a country that panders to ethnic, religious and party affiliations in such matters.

Lagos: Water everywhere, none to drink

Published on Saturday, 10 September 2011 06:00

It is ironical that at a time Lagos is not only surrounded by water, but about to be swallowed by record time flood, Lagosians cannot get water to drink.
According to the United Nations Children Education Fund (UNICEF) and the Department for International Development (DFID), 20 t0 40 litres of water per person per day is considered to be the necessary minimum to meet the needs for drinking and sanitation alone.

However, the standard set by both bodies is a mirage in some parts of Lagos, the economic nerve centre of Nigeria due to increase in the population and expansion. Agege, Badia, Ijora, Ijeshatedo, Ilaje-Bariga, Orile-Iganmu, Makoko, Amukoko, Ijora and some other slums in metropolitan Lagos are in short supply of water.

Weekly Trust investigations revealed that majority of the residents depend solely on water from hawkers (Mai-ruwa) who sell a jerry-can of water for N20 and other category of users who buy direct from operators of borehole in their areas.

A resident of Orile-Iganmun Mrs. Aminat Muhammed, said getting water for domestic use is like sourcing water from a rock. “We suffer a lot to get water in this area every day. If you want to get enough water for your family, you need to wake as early as 6am, because people’s rush, every resident wants water,” she said. Who wouldn’t?

Hajia Maimunat Seriki corroborated Aminat , saying, “the borehole sunk in this area sometimes ago by some of the politicians did not last long due to lack of maintenance. Some people alleged that those who are selling water in the neighborhood destroyed the borehole so that they could continue to sell. We are yet to experience the presence of government water in this area.”

One of the private borehole operators in the area who begged for anonymity, denied destroying the public borehole provided by some of the politicians in the area. The aged man insisted that he decided to be selling water because he pitied the womenfolk and young girls who roam the neighborhood searching for water for domestic use.

According to him, selling water for residents in the neighborhood does not attract much gain as people insinuated. “I spend much money buying petrol to run generators with which we pumped water for sale most times. If not that some poor people will suffer, I would have stopped selling water, because there is nomuch gain in it,” he said.

Meanwhile, in what may come as a surprise to many residents of Lagos, in spite of few additional water works put in place by the state government, the Lagos the State Water Corporation (LSWC) has been unable to fill the gap between the demand for water by the teeming population and what the corporation supplies.

The details of the present water supply situation given by the Group Managing Director of LSWC, Engr. Shayo Holloway, how that the estimated demand for water by the over 18 million population of the state is 600 million gallons per day. He regretted that the output capacity of all the waterworks in the state is not up to half of the demand.

The many problems confronting the corporation to deliver services to the people of Lagos, Holloway pointed , are the increase in the number of people in the metropolis coupled with inadequate plants, machinery, wastage of water and reluctance to pay water bills due to people’s perception that it is a service that has to be provided free to them.

Other problems mentioned by Holloway include, lack of regular power, burst water- pipes, water theft by pure water producers, illegal connection, vandalization of pipes, inadequate customer base and shortage of manpower.

However, the LSWC boss explained that the problems of inadequate plants and machinery were being addressed by the corporation, noting that the state government has pumped substantial amount of money for the development of the corporation.

He said government efforts has been boosted through the PPP programme embarked on by the corporation the World Bank support project in rehabilitation and expansion of Iju waterworks, Adiyan, Akute and Odomola waterworks in Epe division of the state.

Meanwhile, the water engineer warned that drilling of boreholes by landlords in Lagos as an alternative source of regular supply of water is not the best. He explained that the boreholes being drilled do not meet the required standard to get germs-free water ,because these privately-owned boreholes are not deep beyond 100 feet.”At that level, there is still ground water contamination. They are nothing but shallow wells,” he said.

“We know that only few landlords can finance standard boreholes. The common 100 feet deep boreholes being financed by property owners in Lagos metropolis is nothing but shallow wells. The depth of the boreholes being drilled at LSWC is a minimum of 250 metres. This is to ensure that un-diluted water is tapped from the earth for public consumption”, Holloway noted.

Interestingly, the water engineer noted that even if the projection for adequate water supply in Lagos is met, the challenges would not have been totally conquered. He said expansion project at the waterworks will be an on-going programme due to the influx of people into the megacity.

Buhari wants to give Fashola the Lagos State ministerial slot but Tinubu wants another person other than Fashola so he has to throw mud on Fashola so that Buhari will abandon him. The question is who will bring Tinubu to justice? Regardless, both Fashola and Amaechi are highly corrupt. When I was calling fashola a fraud on this forum many thought I was hating or being tribal

You have said it all, Tinubu and OBJ are the worst and greedy set of ppl..... They will pull you down even when they are Dirtier than you, claiming holier than thou.
