@rasputin. Thanks for the advice. But my comment was NOT directed to you, was it? Now I can take your comment as a joke or as an insult or as an advice. If you meant it as a joke, well it's obviously very funny. If you meant it as an insult, well I have no response for you. But if you meant it as an advice, kindly wait till your advice is sought next time before you open your stinking mouth to feed your sad ego from my equally stinking asss.

Whoa,back off dude,why so much anger and phuckery.Don't even sweat it,I only cracked a harmless joke,I'm actually amazed you could respond this way;no vex

Tinubu, Fashola Crisis Boils Over

The simmering crisis between Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) of Lagos State and his estranged god-father and predecessor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu may have reached a boiling point as different groups mass behind the two gladiators in a development which if left unchecked, could change the face of politics in the nation’s commercial capital this week.
Also, a third group that is aimed at mediating in the crisis is being led by the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu. The group consists of prominent Lagosians, most of whom are not partisan politicians.


The feud between Fashola and Tinubu which had been severally denied by both sides came to the fore last Thursday when a newspaper advertisement detailed several offences based on financial malpractices against the Fashola administration.
The advertisement placed by a group known as “The True Face of Lagos” was signed by one Dr. Tunde George and Mr. Kasali Martins who are believed to be working on behalf of the former governor of the state. They also accused members of the state House of Assembly of complicity in the offences as the legislators were said to have been bribed by the executive.
Some of the allegations made by the group are:


•That Fashola spent N1.5 billion to demolish the Bank of Industry (BOI) building, paying a company introduced by one Tunji Olowolafe in cash transfer only for him and his cronies to claim the land adjacent to it.
•That Fashola government awarded part of Western Avenue (Funsho Williams Road), about two kilometres road for N7.7 billion without the construction of any bridge. The project was carried out by Julius Berger.
•That the Fashola government awarded the construction of a road and drainage inside Gbagada General Hospital for over N1.8 billion to DEUX Projects Limited owned by Dr. Tunji Olowolafe, a close friend of the governor.
•That the sum of 1.5 billion naira of un-appropriated fund was claimed to have been spent on demolition of Oshodi without approval.


•That the helicopter deal was a big fraud. The helicopter was not built for any kind of emergency evacuation, rescue or to even combat urban fire. Over N5 billion has been spent on the two helicopters. And, the seal of Lagos State is not on it, and it is not even in Lagos but in the Niger Delta making money for some private people in government.
•That the Fashola government recklessly increased and paid over 60% increase on the LASU – Iba road awarded by the Bola Tinubu government for N6.2 billion but was jerked up to N10 billion less than two weeks after the incumbent governor came on board.


•That the Tinubu administration awarded the construction of City Hall for N2.3 billion. Fashola’s government which only changed the floor tiles to marble tiles, increased the contract sum to N5.2 billion. The cost of the project was increased by 126%.
•That the Fashola spent over N13 billion on planting of grass and flowers. Most of the money was spent to import Palm trees from Niger Republic, a sahel region when Lagos is in the rain forest which explains why most of them have dried up.
•That a CCTV project was awarded to Fashola’s relation who claimed to be acting for CISCO. The contract was awarded for $62 million, while the rejected quote for the contract was $30 million.


•That DEUX PROJECT LIMITED was awarded 11 out of 19 contracts in the Lagos State Ministry of health between January and August 2009. Out of N5.6 billion contract in the Ministry of Health, Deux Project alone collected N5.1 billion worth and was paid 70% upfront in cash.
THISDAY was unable to reach Governor Fashola to respond to the allegations contained in the advertorial but one of his close aides dismissed the claims by the group as baseless and unfounded.
In the defence of the governor, the aide said the feud was not about any inflation of contract cost or financial recklessness. They said it was a move to force the governor to renew the contracts between Alpha Beta, a revenue collection consultancy owned by Tinubu and the state government. The firm had been collecting all revenues on behalf of Lagos State government since the period the Tinubu government was in power.


However, when the firm’s contract expired last year, Fashola was said to have refused to renew it because the commission is too big and he needs the revenue to build roads, schools and hospitals.
Also, an associate of the former governor said the issue of Alpha Beta should not be dragged into the case of a governor who refused to follow due process and financial regulations in the award of contracts.


Same Thursday that the advertorial by the group was published, the House of Assembly set up a six-man panel headed by Hon. Rasak Balogun to investigate the plethora of allegations and make recommendations accordingly. Other members of the committee are: Mr. Sanai Agunbiade; Mr. Rotimi Olowo; Mr. Moshood Oshun, Mrs. Adefunmilayo Tejuoso and Mrs. Omowunmi Edet.
Insiders in the Action Congress (AC), the party to which Fashola and Tinubu belong yesterday told THISDAY that the investigative panel is the unofficial commencement of impeachment process.
It is believed that the report of the investigative panel may either be used to get Fashola off the seat of Lagos governorship or may become a tool to finally subdue him and force him to fall in line.


The source said: “Fashola is beginning to behave as if he got into that position only on his own merit. He forgot that he is a product of a process controlled by certain political forces. Some individuals, some of them non-politicians who claim to be Lagos elite are now building a ring around him, giving him false confidence that he has been doing very well and should cut off from the political forces which labored to get the people of Lagos State to elect him. That is actually the crux of the matter.”
The position of the AC chieftain who spoke to THISDAY on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue correlates with the views of the speaker of Lagos state House of Assembly, Hon. Adeyemi Ikuforiji who while responding to the 2010 budget presentation by Fashola last year warned the governor to tread with caution and not get carried away by praises from some people who do not appreciate the enormity of the problems in the state which the administration is yet to address.


Also, a source in the Lagos Assembly yesterday denied any plan to impeach Fashola. The source said it would be out of place that such allegations are levelled against the executive and the legislature would pretend as if it did not hear of it.
“What the House is trying to do in all of these is to set the record straight and sift the facts from the fallacy. If they are true, we will address it and if false, we will still address it. But it is amazing why people are crying wolf over non-existent impeachment moves. But this would not deter us. We will do our job satisfactorily as would be certified by our conscience,” the source said.
However, to stave off the threat of impeachment against the governor, several groups have emerged aiming to launch mass campaigns to thwart any plan to distract Fashola from the performance of his duties as governor.


The groups have been sending out messages through telephones and emails to mobilise support for Fashola and to send strong signals that politicians in the state should strive to resolve their differences amicably instead of derailing the “good governance” that Lagosians have been enjoying under Fashola’s administration.
As part of the activities of the ad-hoc groups that have emerged to mobilise support for Fashola, a protest rally has been slated for tomorrow as a show of solidarity for the governor who is believed to be vilified for political reasons.


One of the text messages being sent around ahead of tomorrow’s rally read: “Yesterday, a faceless group writes in Punch newspapers, spurious allegations against our governor, BRF Fashola. Today, the House of Assembly begins impeachment proceedings against him. We, the people, need to rise up against this. We need to rise up against godfatherism like this. Lagos is the envy of other states. We need to put a stop to this or Lagos will burn. Our fate is in our hands.”
Another of such pro-Fashola messages also states: “Let’s not fold our hands and watch evil happen in Lagos. Join us in a peaceful rally for BRF Monday morning, 8am in front of Adebola House, Opebi, Ikeja all in support of Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN). Please, show up. Dress code: black on black. Eko o gbodo baje o.”


There is also the text message that states: “Here they go again!!! Playing politics with our lives as if our opinion does not count!!! No more!! They are trying to discredit and distract good governance that even a blind man can see in Lagos. It’s time for the people to act and fight for our rights. Show your support for governor Fashola by pressing your horn for two minutes wherever you are at 7am, 12noon and 7pm from Monday, 1st of February to Friday, the 5th. Please, circulate this text to your entire network. Real power is in the hands of the people. Let’s use it to deliver ourselves from the selfish games of the politicians. Eko o gbodo baje o!!!”


However, worried by the developments in the past one week in the state politics, the Oba of Lagos, Akiolu is said to have put machinery in place to ensure that the crisis does not degenerate. The Oba is said to have invited the speaker, Hon. Ikuforiji with a view to discussing the issues.
Although, the meeting is yet to hold as the speaker is said to have been out of town, it is believed that the duo would meet later today. The Oba’s meeting may also be attended by some prominent Lagosians who are retired bureaucrats, former security officials, top professionals, businessmen and others.
It is not the first time that the monarch would wade into disagreements between Fashola and Tinubu.

I'm sure you're asking the wifeys,men don't mind;generally

Eastbay:
Doc,
If the Amodu fans club led by the scrotal sac called Sagamite feel they need to explain away his shoddy performance,I think there's no point replying people who are intent on supporting ineptude,mediocrity,shoddiness,general laziness and stupidity.
Amodu should never have been coach in the first place.Especially when a Siasia lurks.So when anyone prepares a post-mortem,telling us how and what a coach (who should by now,know what do do,especially when he is supposed to have had these qualities but is obviously lacking these qualities) should be doing,it makes you wonder why and how they started defending this same embodiment of emptiness in the first place.
There's no point in replying someone who lashed out at people who felt Amodu was never the right option to coach the eagles,and is trying to save face with an epistle that makes St. Paul look like a secondary school literature student.Especially when they felt we the "left-wingers"didn't know what we were saying.One honeric now wants to blame the players,forgetting conveniently that those same players were selected by the coach;conveniently forgetting that football's creed is that the buck stops at the manager/coach's desk.Yet these same people feel people like us calling for removal of Amodu on the basis of pure incompetence and non-qualification have no opinion or don't know what we are saying.
Shame on those defending Amodu.We deserve better.Even if he is kicked out 24hrs to the start of the world cup,the idiot is NOT deserving of the honour to lead us to the /mundial.

Shuo,see as dem they finish Amodu
Truth be told,dude knew he dindn't possess the technical nous to guide the eagles to glory at can2010,but I guess the lure of the pay,bonuses ets was just too good to resist,I blame the NFF who refused to see his incompetence,except it's true what some people are saying in certain quarters that some NFF officials actually collect financial returns from Amodu

Tudór:
Yes, it was Angela merkel and Gordon Brown who killed foreigners in the xenophobic attacks. . . I saw them.

Buahahahahahahahahahahahaha

@ RSA
Much as I appreciate your PR job for your country,there're still some cold hard truths you just can't wish away,not even with a million cuss words on nairaland

Did somebody suggest babyface
LOL

How could they attribute it to this man's sickness,the other time there was crisis in Jos was he no on seat?[img][/img]

Harry Arogundade is a disgrace to the Nigeria Navy(hold on,isn't the whole Navy a disgrace,as well as the Army,Airforce and all the other uniformed jerks in this country)

Anytime I play the i-report video clip of that assault,I can't help but re-conclude that Harry Arogundade is a beastly baastaard for sanctioning that savage attack by his illiterate and moronic thugs,aka naval ratings on a defenceless woman

I learnt this selfish power-seeking and soon-to-die-in office man has emaciated more than this,such a shame the man seems not to love himself enough to quit office and go take care of his health[img][/img]

Much as I know Turai is a deluded and power-spoilt silly girl,I doubt she made that call as none of the former heads of state will allow her rant nonsense in their eyes on phone without sharply rebuking her

keeptalkin:
football rehearsal? so he rehearse football on stage like actors?

YES O,they're gonna dramatise football;and it's more important than your eagles game ,it's meant to be fun,surely you didn't expect montessori kids to be subjected to run around full sized football pitches just so you can say they're having a fooftball practice

By the way,let me know when the Algerians are done whooping your assss so I can come have a good laugh on you  

Sorry I wont watch the game as I have a more important game to watch at the same time,i.e my son's montessori school football rehearsal

They should name the baby Onwa

I hope the best support-able team in England;i.e Arsenal comes away with three points

May united play like the super eagles and may Faggotson read the game like Amodu

He was gonna leave anyways,so nobody is fooled

MrCrackles:
