Raji Fashola On Lagos IGR And Tinubu Development Template by drlateef: 12:31pm On Aug 27, 2022
Copied:

"...Tinubu gave us a MASTERPLAN and Foundation with which Lagos will be developed continuously without interruption. That was the plan I followed as Lagos Governor and even my successors too. The evidence of Lagos development is glaring to all today and we are just beginning. IGR was N600m monthly in Lagos when Tinubu took over, so we engaged consultants with the agreement to spread the net to evaders. We agree to pay them commission on any new revenue brought in but nothing on the already existing N600m. Within few years LAGOS IGR grew to N8b monthly. When Tinubu left and I came in, I cancelled the agreement and said henceforth commission will only be paid on any new revenue brought in and Nothing will be paid on N8b I inherited from my predecessor and I reduced the commission further. That was how our monthly IGR got to N20b and today it is over N50b monthly, so when "Economic illiterates talk about Lagos economy, I simply laugh at their naivety and lack of ideas..."

God bless Tinubu, Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo for making Lagos a beacon for the country. A glimpse of what Nigeria can achieve.

Not some guy who participated in wrecking our economy with container loads of junks who is now promising a production based economy.

cool

"Ashiwaju also pioneered merit in cabinet appointments in particular. I want to emphasize this because a major draw back we have, as a nation, is the way we are blindsided into thinking that we can avoid merit and expect to achieve great things. We simply cannot avoid merit.

Ashiwaju demonstrated in the years when he was governor, that political appointments, especially cabinet appointments, should be based on merit. He looked for those that he considered the best possible material at the time regardless of where they were from.

For the first time in the history of Lagos State, we had cabinet members from other parts of the country, beginning with other parts of the Southwest. Rauf Aregbesola from Osun State, I from Ogun State, Arthur Worrey from Delta, Lai Mohammed from Kwara State, Dele Alake from Ekiti State, Ben Akabueze from Anambra State.

We also had the appointments of Judges from all over the country; Justice Onyeabo and Justice Sybil Nwaka were appointed Judges of Lagos State. There is no other State elsewhere in the country except in some places in the North, where we have seen the appointment of individuals from other States. Picking people for positions no matter what part of the country they are from is an important part of our story as a country. Every once in a while, I think that history gives us one or two persons who are gifted transformative leaders. I believe that our country has been gifted with this transformative leader, Ashiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I believe very strongly that this man’s political trajectory has only just begun. He is a man who has tremendous giftings and God has great plans ahead for him.

I pray for you, Ashiwaju, that as your days so shall your strength, wisdom and favour be in Jesus Mighty name, amen!" PROF YEMI OSINBAJO.

After watching the video below. Nigerians should be glad to have voted the BEST MAN according to Osinbanjo's own remarks about ASIWAJU AHMED TINUBU. It's sad how Osinbanjo got carried away from the REALITY he himself confessed about TINUBU. Watch the video below.
