    1. Something is fishing somewhere.. I guess Thiefnubu is not happy that Fashola was part of those that were selected for Buhari's trip to Germany for G7 summit. Maybe he feels Fashola is a back stabber.. There's fire on the mountain..😱 I sidon watch drama as it unfolds.. Going to grab my 3D cinema lens👓

    2. Mr money Maker....I hope you meant "politicians" and not yoruba's? It would be highly immature, irresponsible and given of a person below the average mind to utter your statement.

  4. Obvious tinubu isn't happy with him.

    I SLEEP WITH MY BOSS
    I work in one of the top automobile firms  and I banged my manager after a staff night we had months back. None of us mentioned it to anyone else (I made him promise not to and i havent told anyone).  Everything went back to normal until last month when he decided to come visit. He offered a neck massage and before I knew it we were doing things .
    Since then  we've been meeting up  after work and on the weekends and regularly texting dirty messages during work hours.  It's kinda funny this is happening as I usually dont get involved with people I'm not dating. . He ...

  14. Please why do we forget what these politicians say in the heat of their rants.

    Have we chosen to forget so quickly how FFK maligned the igbos.defaming the characters of some prominent igbo married women claiming to have had sex with them while they were married?

    Have we forgotten so quickly how just a year ago,FFK called for the movement of a YORUBA COUNTRY?

    Do we not know by now that there is obviously something mentally wrong with this overgrown man with the mouth that's shaped like a baboons asshole?No offense meant just an adjective used here.

    When are we on social media going to stop beating ourselves over the head when people that can't successfully run their homes give us advise?

    Are we this oppressed?Are we this daft?Are we going to continue to stay down because we were pushed down?Will we continue to make social media platform owners richer everyday while we remain poor on thoughts,deed and character?

    FFK is FFK and he'll speak from any side of the mouth with the right amount of cheese offered.

    Please ignore the rants of a mentally challenged man.

  28. MY FOURTH TIME OF COMMENTING ON THIS PLATFORM. THE FIRST TWO WERE IN TEARY EYES FOR THE DEATH OF DORA AKINYULI AND SLY, THE COOL FM RADIO STAR WHO DIED. THE THIRD WAS FOR CORRECTING THE VALUES OF CHARLY BOY WITH RESPECT TO HIS MODE OF DRESSING VIS A VIS HIS AGE.

    NOW I HEREBY COMMENT THAT GOD IS GREATER THAN TINUBU AND AMBODE AND ALL OTHER APC POLITICIANS THAT INTENTIONALLY DID NOT ATTEND THE BOOK LAUNCH OF GOVERNOR FASHOLA, SENIOR ADVOCATE OF NIGERIA. GOVERNOR FASHOLA FOUGHT TOOTH AND NAIL TO BRING THE GLORY OF APC TO A GREATER PEDESTAL.

    I LAUGHED WHEN PEOPLE CRITICISED FASHOLA FOR N78MILLION NAIRA THEREBY UNDERMINING THE PRICELESS VALUE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AS REGARDS HOSTING OF A FUNCTIONAL INTERNET WEBSITE USED AS A TOOL TO EFFECTIVELY CARRY OUT THE FUNCTIONS OF A SERVING GOVERNOR THROUGHOUT THE DURATION OF HIS 8YEARS IN OFFICE WHICH MADE HIM TO BE ADJUDGED AS THE BEST PERFORMING GOVERNOR IN NIGERIA EVER.

    LET EVERYONE WHO WISHES TO HEAR LISTEN AND NOTE THAT GOVERNOR AMBODE CAN NEVER PERFORM ONE TENTH OF WHAT FASHOLA HAS DONE TO LAGOS WITH POISE, COMPOSURE, CONFIDENCE AND DIGNITY. I WATCHED WITH DISAPPOINTMENT GOVERNOR AMBODE'S DEBATE WITH JIMI AGBAJE WHO WAS NOT COMPOSED WHEN HE ASKED FOR THE MEANING OF OCEAN ECONOMY FROM AGBAJE WHO IRONICALLY HAD EARLIER PAINSTAKENLY EXPLAINED THE MEANING TO THE AUDIENCE. BESIDES HE IS NOT FLUENT IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND HE READS ALL HIS SPEECHES WORD FOR WORD.

    GOVERNOR AMBODE IS DEFINITELY A TOOL IN THE HANDS OF TINUBU AND HE CAN NEVER BE AS CEREBRAL AND AS INTELLIGENT AS FASHOLA. IT IS A STAB IN THE BACK OF FASHOLA AND TO THE ENTIRE RESIDENTS OF LAGOS STATE TO DESERT FASHOLA AT THIS TIME BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO DANCE TO THE WHIMS AND CAPRICES OF TINUBU WHO IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS A TRAITOR TO THE AFENIFERES (THE OLD POLITICIANS THAT BROUGHT TINUBU TO LIME LIGHT). IF YOU KNOW THE TRUTH THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE.

    LET IT ALSO BE NOTED THAT IF FASHOLA IS NOT APPOINTED AS A MINISTER IN THIS CURRENT DISPENSATION IT WILL BE A GREAT MINUS TO APC AS A PARTY AND TO NIGERIA AS A WHOLE BECAUSE OF THE TYPICAL PULL DOWN SYNDRONE ATTITUDE OF SOME NIGERIANS THAT DO NOT LIKE TO CELEBRATE GOOD QUALITIES AND OUTSTANDING PEOPLE OF NIGERIA.

    I DO NOT KNOW FASHOLA BEFORE BUT I CAN JUDGE FROM HIS AURA, HIS PERSONALITY AND QUALITIES, HIS SPEECHES AND THE GOVERNORSHIP DEBATE HE HAD DURING HIS ELECTION, THAT HE IS A VERY GOOD MAN WHO SERVED HIS STATE AND COUNTRY WITH ALL HIS HEART AND MIGHT. DO WE START REMINISCING THE NUMBER OF TIMES FASHOLA WENT ABOUT EVEN IN OKADA (AS I GATHERED) TO SUPERVISE ALL PROJECTS IN LAGOS STATE, INCLUDING THE PEACE AND RELATIVE SECURITY, WE ENJOYED IN LAGOS STATE THROUGHOUT HIS TENURE DESPITE THE OPPOSITION OF PDP AT THE CENTRE.

    YES TINUBU IS A GOOD POLITICIAN AND TACTITIAN BUT DEFINITELY MUCH WAS TO HIS POCKET INORDER TO WIELD POWER IN LAGOS STATE. I REST MY CASE.

  29. Tinubu was absent because he had to attend the burial of the deputy governor of the northern state who died. He couldn't make it back to Lagos but he was represented by a former special adviser to Education in his Cabinet, Prof. Tunde Samuel.

  38. Babatunde Fashola is a man of all, icon of good governance, a remarkable personalty, and Man of his words. Mr. President made his interests in him too obvious from the day he single handedly chose him for G7 visit.

    Bad Belles dont want that relationship as they fill BRF is taken their shines forgetting that only GOD is sufficient for all!!!!!!!!!1

    BRF keep doing great........... Nigerians are behind you. Bad belles, Politicians and Ingrates. Go and Repent before its too late.

  39. Linda your tatafo and amebo na wah. If they didnt attend, it simply means they were busy. As u can see, by virtue of who they are, they are busy people. Even Fashola's wife couldnt make it too. So what's the big deal? What makes you think they havent made their personal donations to him in private and taken excuse that they cant make it? Linda stop trying to insinuate things biko

  41. Lol shut up. Fashola has had 2 book launch even when he was governor and these people you mentioned NEVER attended. They always send reps. Tinubu sent prof Tunde. Nothing is "suspicious" about it. You guys just make everything political. As if Fashola doesn't have a life outside politics. So APC people must frolick around each other?

    ReplyDelete
  42. Tinubu is definitely fighting dirty with a view to rubbishing Fashola's commendable legacy in Lagos state to which the former had earlier admitted was by far more spectacular than his. This was the same Fashola that deferred to Tinubu in the appointments of over 95% of the State Commissioners and Local Government Chairmen and kowtowed to the orders of Tinubu but only resisted when it became obvious that Tinubu was going beyond the ordinary, in terms of fleecing the State.

    Most of these media attacks are directed at the incumbent Governor to make him succumb to the overbearing demands of Tinubu. Who else can appease Tinubu, that corners a significant portion of the State's monthly IGR and yet is not pacified. I blame Fashola's for his humility and refusal to hijack the party from Tinubu, even when AIT went for his jugular, with all his fraudulent acquisitions.Must Tinubu acquire the whole of Lagos State to be satisfed?

    Tinubu and Saraki are the obvious stains in the APC's change mantra. But for Fashola, APC would have long lost Lagos to the PDP because Lagosians are tired of the greedy antics of Tinubu. Why use Fashola's achievements to gain political advantage only to turn against him at the national level. The obvious fact is that nobody must outshine Tinubu just like Pa Adesanya, Jakande and many others discovered too late to their chagrin. It is a shame that Tinubu could extend the same philosophy to his erstwhile political son, who had made great conquests and more or less advanced the Tinubu brand. Lagosians voted for the Fashola in Ambode given the fact that Fashola was more or less a creation of God and Tinubu.How and from where does Tinubu expect Fashola, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, to accommodate his excessive financial demands through short notes,other than through inflated contracts by Tinubu's cronies?.

    Tinubu is aware of Buhari's preference for Fashola and all attempts are been made to frustrate this, same with Dr Fayemi. Tinubu's morbid fear is that, Fashola could be used by Buhari to replicate his achievements in Lagos at the Federal level. Who can satisfy this BEING Called TINUBU .

    Fashola's problem with Tinubu started immediately Buhari started appreciating the achievements of Fashola in Lagos State and was motivated to nominating Fashola as his Vice President. Tinubu became envious, distraught and livid with anger which caught Sai Buhari unawares because Baba wanted to leverage on the Fashola brand.

    Due to the Muslim-Muslim ticket issue, Sai Buhari settled for Fashola as his Chief of Staff but the bubble burst during one of Sai Buhari's external trips to Germany, Fashola was shown moving to the Presidential jet with files prior to the departure of the President. That was when heaven broke loose and numerous negative sponsored media campaigns commenced against him. The Tinubu boys called him Sai Buhari's poster boy. This got Buhari so irritated that he decided to postpone the appointment of a substantive Chief of Staff and rather decided to secretly use their services at the Presidency. This is why Dr Fayemi, Fashola, El-Rufai, Pat Utomi and many more brilliant heads are being used at the Presidency under the acronym-Secret Advisers. Buhari's recent accomplishments on Corruption, NNPC, National Discipline etc are testimonies to their efforts.

    Tinubu and his cohorts became more and more frantic on learning Sai Buhari's tactics by submitting numerous petitions against Fashola, even when most of these contracts and expenditures were either made on behalf of or sponsored by Tinubu himself. When this became too much, Fashola outrightly told Sai Buhari that he needed to rest due to his ill-health having served his fatherland meritoriously for 8years, with grey hairs like Obama to show for it.Sai Buhari became sad and there and then decided to postpone the appointment of Ministers till September.

    Who is afraid of a future President Fashola. POWER BELONGS TO GOD.
