Lekki Robbery: Statement by Gov. Fashola totally irresponsible - Reuben Abati

Presidential Media aide, Reuben Abati has described as totally irresponsible the statement made by Governor of Lagos state Babatunde Fashola that the success of the robbery incident that occurred in Lekki yesterday March 12th was as a result of the drafting of all police formation in the state to protect President Jonathan who was in the state when the robbery incident occurred. Reuben Abati spoke to state house correspondence
"We consider the statement attributed to Governor Fashola as grossly and utterly irresponsible. We expect that a man of his status who is the Governor of a state should speak more responsibly. It doesn't make any sense whatsoever that the entire police formation in a state would be deployed to protect the president of Nigeria. The visit of the President or any part of the country does not necessitate the depletion of the police force active in that particular state or its environment. The President has a defined team that protects him anywhere he goes and again President Jonathan does not need the entire police force to protect him in a state where he is loved by the people and where as we have seen, he enjoys overwhelming support to the leadup of the 2015 presidential election" he said

fashola you have succeeded in making a mess of yourself cos of elections. in case you dont know lagosians have lost all respect for you. do you really have to mess yourself up in order to be seen to be campaigning for GMB when everyone knows you dont approve of his candidature. you openly said agbaje is above 60 so too old for lagos so that means in your heart of hearts you know GMB is too old as well. I pity your family especially your wife who am sure will be very mad st the way her husband is being turned into a dirty rag for tinubu family to wipe their feet

FASHOLA LET HIMSELF DOWN. EVEN TINUBU DID NOT DO BETTER THAN FASHOLA. I AM WONDERING WHY HE BABATUNDE FASHOLA WILL DESTROY HIS 8 YEARS LABOUR ALL IN THE NAME OF POLITICS. THE COMMENT HE MADE WAS UTTERLY RUBBISH. I HELD FASHOLA SO HIGH, HIGHER THAN ANY ONE IN POWER AND OUT OF POWER... BUT RECENTLY HE IS MESSING THE WHOLE THING UP AND BRINGING HIMSELF DOWN. IT IS BETTER FOR FASHOLA TO QUIT POLITICS AND GO INTO SOMETHING ELSE THAN TO LET HIS HARD EARNED INTEGRITY SINK INTO RIVER OF MESS.

I simply concur with ruben on this, Fashola was lying nd rude to Mr president. Even if GEJ wasn't in lagos dat day the thief wud ve robbed successfully bcos our police re not equipped to handle them. The state of security in lagos is low. Fashola shud take responsible for that nd stop blaming it on mr president. And we all knw fashola won't ve commented if not for election dat is very close. He should apologize to d president.

Truth be told,Fashola's statement can stand any close scrutiny of reasoning.A police force that is totally controlled by the FG and is happy to line the street all the way to the airport can be easily caught off-guard like it happened on the day.The question then is,has Abati ever come out to counsel the first-lady and other officials who make statemenst such as "APC is responsible for fuel shortage".And for Fashola,has he reached out to the victims?

huh? So Abati can talk about responsible statement??!! does he read what writes at all, Fair enough I dont agree with Fashola, but its a lie that GEJ bring all his protection from Abuja, that's BS. shit load of police is deployed to take part in the ground work of securing the president's before and during his visit and lets be clear ACPs work for the the CP, CP works for the IG, IG works for GEJ, so Fashola as a governor has no control of how much police is pulled out to secure the perimeter and make in a long range around the president secure. Order comes from Abuja and trust me a governor cant do shit, please people should read the constitution, when GEJ said he is not using a good percentage of the power the constitution allows him to, he was not joking, that book called the Nigerian constitution is scary, a SAN like Fashola knows whats up, a governor really really do not wanna piss a sitting president off on issues like use of police, so secretly GEJ and his team bullies some peeps its just not known to the public.

I have patiently went through all the comments but my submission is simple and I want all to please reason before making ultrances; 1. It is true that Fashola shouldn't have made such comment, it is rather unfortunate for the growth of democracy in Nigeria. 2. Let's all be sincere with our dear country, the way and rate at which security men are drafted to control traffic and guide both Mr. President and his Wife in any State they visit either together or individually is totally absurd and unreasonable. 3. Let the politicians stop runing the affair of our dear country in deceit. 4. Mr President might not be aware of the 70% state security details deployed to guide him during his visit to Lagos but some people who toy with the citizen's intelligence all in the name of eye service making the whole polity a rubbish. 5. PDP has ultered more irresponsible statement than this and am sure they are all bed of the same feaders 6. As for Reuben Abati, politics is not a do or die affair, he should also lean how to be put statement and fact straight, March 28th will determine if Mr President is loved in Lagos or not. May God gives us the right to vote the right candidates come March and April. Above all the robbery incident in Lekki on the 12th March was unfortunate and I pray that God should give the families of those who lost their lives in the incident a fortitude to bear the loss. Let us embrace peace. Thanks.

I am amazed at how little people know about their surrounding. Fashola is totally right. Anytime the president is on the move the police hierarchy fall over themselves to show loyalty, otherwise....

The other day he was going to Lord's chosen, there were two police men at every 100 meters from Marina to Cele. The same thing happens in Abuja. Whenever he is traveling you will see policemen on the route from Aso villa to the airport. With that kind of distraction, what do you think would happen to other areas the police normally patrol?

Abatti is a man of straw. You have leveraged on the ignorance of a multitude. But the fact speaks for itself. Truth spoken has hurt your presidents person abi? We all know how police men were standing guard and redundant accross Lagos on Thursday. Why do you think this criminals decided to strike on that day. These guys I say on the videos look well planned. The NPF and Mbu have stupidly abdicated their responsibility because of one misfit called a president. A president that has Soo whittled down his office it's unbelievable. Pls Fashola spoke the truth. Abati your days are numbered.

In view of the follow up statement to Gov. Fashola, I deem all parties involved are shielding from the truth. Gov. Fashola, may have been right with his statement though, but the Presidency controls also, the Nigerian Police force and where an ill equipped Police force exist, more of such saddening events are bound to always reoccur. Let's not trade blames, but accept our irresponsibilities are both ends, and forge a better security force for Nigeria.

Fashola is 100% right but i disagree with him because he is a politician and he's trying to politicise the misfortune of others.
Now ask yourself for over an hour dare devil robbery operation on a place like Lekki and not even one police resistance in sight.
If you are familiar with Lekki you would know their is always police presence at the entrance and exist but on that day none was present.

Is there any polce in Nigeria controlled by the state government. Anybody claiming not to appreciate fashola's comments is simply trying to stand logic on its head. However I am still voting Agbaje

Now that's one heck of a crappy lie and Abati himself knows it or what does he call those men and women usually lining the Presidential route and choking off access to side streets and major intersections?
Those are local cops drafted from their places of duty and made to endure rain and shine with a very good chance of a no-show by Jonathan on some occasions.
Fashola was dead on point!

I remember sometime in June 2013, when we were having our students week in my school @ Akoka, we paid for one of the national security to help us with security issues on the grand finale of the Students week, which is the beauty pageant day. We were promised by the commandant that they would come with a van with 10 men, we agreed and we paid the required sum. To my greatest surprise on the day of the beauty pageant, only 2 men showed up, I went to the SUG president bcos I was the social director then to ask what was wrong, he was also surprised. We decided to drive down to their office that noon before the event started, on getting to the office, the commandant said he is sorry they have to reduce the number of men they sent us because the president GEJ is visiting Lagos and the visit is impromptu and some of his men have been requested to guide him. All I could say that was WTF!!
Now thinking about this, the president didn't visit Akoka that day but they took men from Akoka, how much more when the president went to the stock exchange which is on the Island? That translate to the fact that all the policemen on the island would have been drafted to different roads that leads to the Stock Exchange.
The president at no time travel with security men aside very few SSS or DSS guys that travel with him, it is expected that the local security authority in any state he's going would provide uniform men for maximum security. So, i'll concur with Fashola because I first heard of such nonsense about 2years ago.

2. Maybe u all forgot d hard work of BRF drove away Ebola 4m Lagos. Or maybe he should have done nothing so dat Ebola will spread in Lagos and contain Nigeria, so we can see if Ebola will choose not to affect d Igbos or Yorubas. Y'all burning 4m d same fire, yet abusing each other.

Fashola, I respect u a lot but since this whole election thing started u have made me to think twice about APC. Yes policemen will follow the president if he is in Lagos for protection but not the entire police force. Am not a Nigerian but I have lived all my life in dis country in Lagos to be precise and I have lived on admiralty way for atleast three years that incident was scary and anything political shouldn't have been mentioned. U need to stop PDP for everything and besides u re in charge of Lagos not GEJ

i am amazed at Abati's transformation intellectually and even in dressing mode. the mess created by PDP all over the nation has finally been brought to our doors in Lagos especially people that lives in Lekki.Abati should have allowed the twin mad dogs of Fayose and Fanikayode to carry out this insulting language on Fasola. The presidency does not even deem it fit to condole with the families of the 4 policemen that were cut down while on duty on safe guarding the bridge but not as police officers for those banks that was the target of the armed robbers.The presidency is claiming to be ignorant of the fact that despite the fact that Fashola bought additional security vehicles for the police he had no control over what they do with them despite the fact that he is the security officer for his State.
PDP can not win in Lagos State , one thousand Abati can claim that GEJ is now popular in Lagos state after allegedly dolling out dollar cash to the Yoruba Obas, we all know two well that the reverse is the case.May the souls of those police officers rest in perfect peace.
