Fashola Hits on GEJ’s ‘sins’ against Lagosians; “When Ebola hit Lagos, did he come?”

Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, is not impressed with President Goodluck Jonathan on many issues concerning his state, the latest reason is over his recent visits to the state.

Fashola accused Jonathan of sharing dollars during his five-day visit to Lagos, adding that he was being deceived by the state leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party as Lagosians would not vote for him.
He spoke on Thursday, February 26, during the APC rally at Ifako/Ijaye Local Government Area of the state.
Here are some of the things he said….
1. “They have said the President is coming to Lagos. He is welcome to come; Lagos is part of his constituency but we will not vote for him because when we needed him, he did not come to help us. When the international airport road was damaged and he promised to fix it, did you see him?”
2. “When Ebola hit Lagos, did he come? When Kuramo Beach was overflowing and it was going to wipe out the entire Goshen Beach Estate, did you see the President?
3. “When I took him to Ibeju-Lekki, where people were losing their lands, we flew in a helicopter to the place but after that, the President never returned. I wrote letters and appealed but no response.”
4. “We have been using your taxes to protect those communities. So, you have been on your own, with your own party and government. So, he can come 200 times but will you vote for him?”
5. “The only time the President works is a few weeks to elections. When there was security problem in Lagos, who was buying guns and patrol vehicles for the police? Was it not us?”
