If Tinubu Is Allegedly Pocketing Lagos State Funds, What Funds Are Then Used To Develop The State? Matters Arising 
If Lagos Is In Tinubu's Pocket What Then Is Used To Develop The State?

No one is born great; great people become great while others sleep. African Proverb

Everyone desires success, but it comes with a lot of responsibilities. Being famous or a celebrity can attract stalkers, and the successful man cannot do things that the average person can.

As the 2023 presidential election draws near, a great deal of speculation, opinion, and misinformation is flying in all directions with the sole intent of either elevating or debasing a candidate.

Many people have questioned why Tinubu's campaign organization refuses to campaign with Buhari's current achievements and instead campaigns with Lagos state achievements.

First and foremost, Tinubu has stated repeatedly that he will continue to campaign on Buhari's legacies, so who am I to say Tinubu has not campaigned on Buhari's achievements, which are becoming more visible by the day?

Today's focus is on why Tinubu would continue to campaign on the achievements of Lagos state, which is undeniably Nigeria's most successful state, and why the opposition is so full of hatred and HYPOCRISY.

Because Lagos State is only represented by Tinubu in the race, it is understandable that other candidates cannot even mention their state as a model for what they can do as president and then deceptively point to Tinubu, who laid a foundation of development and, above all, continuity in his state.

People say Tinubu has pocketed Lagos, yet Lagos is now Africa's third largest economy, with everyone vying to be a part of the success story of Lagos.

If Tinubu has Lagos in his pockets, as they claim, his children are in charge, his wife is the driver, his boy Mc Oluomo is the minister of transportation, or whatever else they attribute to him, why is it that Lagos continues to excel while other states like Anambra and Adamawa struggle in every way? And these States are not in anyone's pocket.

Where does the money come from for the development of Lagos if Tinubu, as claimed, makes all the decisions? But because hatred has been infused into them by hypnosis, they think with their brains stuffed inside their anus.

Tatafo people everywhere, Tinubu na pocket Lagos yet you say make he no campaign with Lagos State, no b juju b dat? Blowing out someone else’s candle won’t make yours shine brighter.

Lagos has one of the strongest economies in Africa, which means that, if necessary, it can run independently of Nigeria.

So, if Lagos State money is in Tinubu's pocket, who is releasing funds for the amazing development seen in Lagos today? Eko Atlantic is Africa's new destination hub, and the Lagos Blue Rail Lines and others in the works are the envy of all other African countries.

Tinubu, I suppose, is paying for the healthcare facilities, international standard schools, fire fighting service, civil service, and everything else that serves as an example of good governance.

So if we have to be mad like them then it is easier to say Tinubu feeds every Lagosian and the State itself.

Sometimes it is good we put ourselves in the same "Foolish" boat with traducers, and say yes Tinubu is responsible for their sucess and livelihood in Lagos since he alone pockets the money accrued to Lagos and yet the State is moving to become amongst the greatest cities in the World.

To avoid mental disorders, I sometimes recommend that we take our medications at the appropriate times. Tinubu has no choice but to put up with the constant negativity directed at him; it is the price the Jagaban must pay for success.

They were sleeping when Tinubu was busy building Lagos; now that they have awoken, lies are their stock in trade.

Okay naa.

They where sleeping while he was building Lagos, now it's time for him to sleep, why not let him sleep in peace?

Nobody has Abia, Anambra, Enugu in his pocket yet....

Bro see your Eldorado Lagos here, very sweet, Serene and so develop place made possible by Tinubu.

The day you travel out of this miserable place or to this miserable place, will you know that Lagos is so overrated. Forget the media hype, there's nothing in Lagos. congested, dirty and erosion ravaged state.

Ask the idiots

were dem dey ?

According to urchins


Before 1999,there was no Lagos and tinubu lifted his magic wand and said “let there be Lagos” and there was Lagos

90% of lagos Roads are bad...most place's are unbearable, yet he wasn't to fix what's already Dead...

In the year2077 there'll be no Lagos ask CNN

Personal investments are what people term government investment in Lagos.

Most of those structures are personally owned and has nothing to do with Lagos state government.

67% of what Lagos generates directly or indirectly goes to Tinubu pockets only the remaining
33,% is being used to develop Lagos.

Lagos has a debt of over N750bn... an obvious giant leap of over N200bn between 2021 and today, what significant expenditure of that volume consumed that?

Obi received a little over N500bn FAAC in 8years as Governor, yet the works are visible.... while Lagos has a debt load that towers that excluding the huge FAAC allocated to it alongside other undisclosed incomes...

We should not be asking this question, Lagosians should be asking "who stole us blind"?

As usual, I'm sure this trash will get to frontpage.

Anambra that isn't giving shishi to Peter Obi, what have they done with their money?
Why are they still running to Tinubu's lagos to pay money into Tinubu's pocket?

They should thank God that they are now blessed with Governor Soludo. In less than 100 days, we can see his achievements unlike one chinese liar who doesn't even have a project he can use to boost his campaign

Everytime, peter Obi saved money, Obi no dey give shishi, ...bla bla bla....
Is that why he was voted?
Development, education, clealiness, security was Zero under the stingy kleptomaniac.

NIGERIANS WILL NOT VOTE SOMEONE WHO WILL CLAIM HE IS SAVING MONEY FOR THE COUNTRY WHILE THE PEOPLE ARE DYING OF HUNGER

Worse is, this same Obi is one of the sponsors of IPOB (insecurity) in the SE that is why he will never condemn their activities. DSS needs to pick him

Another clown

Is Lagos developed?

If Lagos is one of his achievements atleast he should have improved the medical facilities there instead of going to and other countries time to time for medicall check-ups..

So if we have to be mad like them then it is easier to say Tinubu feeds every Lagosian and the State itself.

On point 100% but we no fit ment like dem

Another WAHALA thread

Imagine a child appreciating his uncle for paying his school fees not knowing that his wicked uncle cornered billions of Naira willed to him by his late father.
Tinubu sucked & is still sucking Lagos dry.

Infact no sensible person should vote for calamity APC as a party, or the sick old Tinubu as an individual.

I dont see the development in 90% of lagos. Lagos is not only Lekki and ikeja. He is stealing 20% of the igr via alpha beta.

When he remove governors and deputies , he decide who runs for Senate , house of reps and house of assembly.. when he select any person to govern the state ... when he decide contracts given in the state ... when the state gives u all u ask for ... when he decide commissioners to be appointed... when his company audits the state , without any rivalry... when his son is in charge of all billboards in lagos ..when he decides on the appointment of leaders of lagos state government agencies ... when he decides who he wants as local government chairman....and all these people remit back to him as loyalty fees...failure to do this will lead to ur removal ... he is like the boss of an organised crime ... such a coward that ran away during end sars protests cos he knew that he has been a major stumbling block for progress

Ask the haters, Lagos Keep getting richer and richer.

As regards development, Tinubu try for Lagos. Tinubu actually made Lagos State what it is today. I am not his fan though. But my vote is for Atiku.

Reinaldo:
Is Lagos developed?

No, we need people from Aba, Abakaliki, Onitsha, Benin, Lokoja, Makurdi, Gusau to come develop am

Even u, Ur service is highly needed

Bro see your Eldorado Lagos here, very sweet and develop place.

Anambra People and Peter Obi suppose dey hide their face in shame. Cause Anambra is still underdeveloped. Anambra is one of the few States that are drawing Nigeria backward.
