Gov. Fashola blames success of yesterday's Lekki robbery on Pres. Jonathan's visit

Lagos state Governor Babatunde Fashola says President Jonathan's visit to the state yesterday was the reason why the robbery attack in Lekki Phase 1 was successful. According to him, all the vehicles the state government bought to patrol the state was stationed to protect the President. He said this during the Buhari meet the Entertainers Programme in Lagos yesterday March 12th
"Today is a very sad day because this afternoon we lost three policemen to the robbery in Lekki and it was the first of its kind in a long time. And I also know that perhaps what will be would have been but it was sad to see all our security vehicles deployed to protect one man. All the vehicles we bought for the police were stationed to receive the President in Lagos while the citizens were left vulnerable. Those policemen have children. Their mothers will be have to explain to them why daddy is not coming home. May their souls rest in peace" he said. Watch the video after the cut...

Too sad.

Wtf? Why blame your failure on another man? If it had been buhari nko?.... OBSEQUIOUS

I am a witness to this, the Lekki Toll area usually has up to 4 Patrol Vans( 2 before and 2 after). thee Vans were not there yesterday. I do not know if they went to receive the president sha.

Apc has started again...in as much as I don like Jonathan what's the meaning of this rubbish press release? Ist of all u lost three policemen really? Just three policeman ,I guess the girls life doesn't mean anything to u...ure indirectly saying if the police cars were available they would have been able to stop the thieves from killing or running via speed boats,,mrubbish...why weren't the policemen wearing bullet proof vests....all the other killings In the past,have they been checkmated by the police ? Or Jonathan was in town then....pls Nigerians should be allowed to think by themselves and politicians should desist from these blame games all in the name of votes....

Please Fashola shouldn't blame yesterdays incident on GEJ for goodness sake! regardless of who the president is, there would always be police vehicles positioned to protect him. If anything Fashola himself should take more responsibility for his failure to provide more police vehicles in the state to prevent such an event from happening! *drops mic and walks away (before all the hater come :-))*

He's a fool and should hide his head in shame.Lives were lost here and we need not politicize everything.Assuming without conceding that all vehicles he bought for the police were stationed to protect Jonathan that is the symbol of Nigeria, what about the vehicles that the police had before his purchase? what about the helicopters for the Marine division?
Pls Pls Pls lives were lost and we shouldn't politicize issues like this. He failed as a governor and should admit same as he has a duty to protect all lagosians not just the president.

Alloy Chikezie said...

What rubbish is he saying? He should take responsibilities for failure to protection his state and stop being a coward by hiding under such lame excuse. That's the quality of a Good leader, he takes responsibility and act accordingly.

Those police vehicles were not there yesterday not like it would have made a difference but you can shut down the security of a city to protect one man.

I am really surprised to read this from Fashola.. That's too low from a man i have so much respect for.. soo dis-appointed .. all the vehicles we bought for the state went to protect one man... thats too low.. i guess a thousand vehicles were on Pres. GEJ patrol

Anonymous said...

Have always known fashola to be smart and knowledgeable but with what he is implying here im highly disappointed. When jona was in abj and neighbourhoods in lagos were robbed, lives wasted even with all the patrol cars on ground, did the police ever come to the rescue, isnt it hours after all have been said and done that the police arrives, did he ever blame jona but because this incident coincided with jona visit, moreso in this election period, he is an easy person to put the blame on. I luv you fashola but this i say a big NO to. Infact if the patrol cars were there, im pretty sure their lives wld have been wasted or they wld run for their dear lives as their colleagues did.

I have witnessed an harrasment by hoodlums before and there was a patrol car with policemen jst few metres ahead watching. They did nothing till God just saved us. We believed they were making few cash from the hoodlums. What point im i trying to bring out - Even if all the patrol cars were stationed at the lekki incident, its their choice to engage in the battle or not. Not all policemen truly acknowledge their responsibility to protect the citizens of Nigeria. Some of them love their lives and pockets more. For some its in the reverse, rather than protecting the citizens they fustrate them. Three died attempting to do so because they were not properly trained, the others fled. Please dont easily put the blame on Jona its not cool at all.

PS: Sorry for my long epistle.

So easy to point fingers, well maybe Jonathan was in town when your brain forget to recognise the fish seller as human, when people can't eat in lagos, when the difference between lekki and ajegunle does not need a magnifying glass to see, when a robbery took place in agboju area about a week ago and people also lost lives, you have only made the rich more comfortable in lagos and yet you don't think the poor would wanna do anything to survive from the rich?

Fashola is just stating a fact. He is not playing politics. There are no less than 4 Armored vehicles in that axis on a normal day. Yesterday, because they received orders from above all of them were redeployed just to go an receive president.

I was in Oworonshoki when they drove past and counted no less than 54 cars in the convoy! If even just two of them were in Lekki as they were stationed, the robbers may hv been caught. Most of these armoured cars it is the same Fashola that provided them to the police. Not from FG money

I've got mad respect for Fashola but the statement he made... Nooo... Don't put the blame on GEJ. There has always been a lax in Security (especially in Lagos).

The robbers escaped by water. Were the security forces on water safeguarding the president when the crime happened? The robbers wouldn't even dare use the water if we had efficient security forces patrolling the water.

U talked about the police getting killed. What of the poor innocent girl? Shouldn't we live in a society where we can be assured of our safety? But all the politicians are concerned about finding a way to bring down other political party members (APC & PDP).

Aren't these people meant to work with one another to make this country a better place? Isn't that what we as a country (especially these so called political parties)should be doing? Finding solutions together to improve the lives and conditions of the people in this country?

You people ranting bullshit, can't u read that all d policemen were deployed to receive ur incompetent president. Same thing his wife did by suspending all other airlines to land because she was about to land till Dana Air crash happened. Those bastards wasted lives in their regimes more than Abacha and Idi Amin self. Thunder fire all GEJ supporters because his supporters does not want the prosperity of this country due to their selfish gain . Awon oloriburuku people**mshewww** PISSED Nigerian citizen

Mr Governor Sir, the fact that you hate the president doesn't mean you should disrespect the office. Take responsibility for what happened. security in Lagos sucks.

By their actions you will know them, APC with the story story issue. So is this the first time robbers are robbing in Lagos?

I don's think Fashola spoke incorrectly. He simply stated a fact. When our president moves in Lagos, the city is shutdown and seemingly all security operatives have marching orders to service that one man. This is not the case in more developed countries.Yes security should be paramount in protecting the president, but not at the scale to which we do it here. Its the God complex all our leaders have and it has a very sad and direct impact on the common man. As Fash said, 'what may be may be' but it is also plausible, the robbers knew security would be generally light due to the police been re-purposed for presidency duty and chose to strike then!

Just my 2 cents!

I can't believe Fashola just said that, it's stupid of him to blame the robbery on the President. fashola is beginning to show how foolish he is to use the lives of the police lost for political campaign, from now on I lost all respect for him and he's 8yrs run in Lagos can only be based on beautifying Lagos with flowers never did he invested in the human capital.

Bonario! Why do I love you?
You just spoke my mind.
The same question I keep asking myself. Why gallivanting about the whole place if you had done what you should do as a President?
I thot an imcumbent should command much respect but with Joonathan, this is not so.

Soooo sad!

Mr. Governor, If you knew the citizenry was vulnerable, what did you do to bridge the security gap?I personally am ashamed for this statement you have made. which just goes to show that the lives of the common Lagosian means very little to the ruling class. Instead of telling us what you are doing to bring these murderers to book, you are asking us who will tell their families of their demise. Face it! it is an occupational hazzard for them and sweeping the matter under the carpet seems to be the best approach? GUY! WAKE UP! your performance has dropped seriously. The sooner you get out of bed with Tinubu the sooner you can regain your glory. Be our champion and do not be blinded by the size of "your cut".

Fashola,you are the height of deception,lies and wickedness.I used to admire you but not any longer.You just showed every one your true self.You have to turn your self to an idiot inorder to enhance Buhari's chances in the coming election.Here is the bad news for you;Buhari can never rule nigeria again after calling on muslims to vote only for muslims.

Normally I ve tried to avoid commentin anytin abt politics, alwez prayin for d country, bt I cant help bt speak it ds tym. Fashola u re a world class clown, for u to open ur pothole of a mouth nd foolishly talk wiout reasonin. Am too disappointed at u, how am I evn sure u dint plan d whole robbery! Pple lost dre lives nd u re here usin it as s basis for APC campaign! Am an unbiased Nigerian woman, nt tribalistic nor racist. Fashola " next tym if u don't ve anytin to say beta shut ur trap nd stay quiet " rubbish.
