PICTURE OF THE DAY- GOVERNOR BRF & THE ALLURE OF BOLI(ROASTED PLANTAIN)

BRF WITH COMMISSIONERS AREMO SEGUN ONIRU & PRINCE GBOLAHAN LAWAL

We totally, totally love the picture above and just had to post it. It just shows how human & down to earth some of our leaders are. They always get overly cocooned once they get into office and don't get to do what we all just love to do. 

Many who have gotten to certain levels in life, just seem to lose touch with reality after a while, pretending not to understand how ordinary people live anymore. 

Love the concentration on my beloved Governor's face, the boli (roasted plantain) sure looks great from the picture. Is that roasted fish next to it? Hmmmmmmm Full package.

WHERE IS THE SO CALLED OPPOSITION IN LAGOS STATE? ARE THEY READY FOR THE NEXT ELECTION?

 

MUSILIU OBANIKORO

ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU

A few weeks ago we had asked the question on this platform- Who is the next Governor of Lagos? Our reason mainly for asking was because we had observed some moves by some members of the ruling party- the ACN who seem to have loads of those that can vie for the post. Some were even already making their intentions known either openly or surreptitiously. Many names are been bandied around and everyone seem to be jostling one way or the other, trying to test the waters, though the election is still about 2 years away. We quite understand the fact that some are using it as bargaining tool for relevance.

While some have openly shown their intentions, some are still acting like they are not interested at all, while their body language says otherwise. We love the fact that those who commented on the last post seem to agree with some of the names with we had made mention of in our earlier write-up- the likes of Gbolahan Lawal, Obafemi Hamzat, Muiz Banire, Adeyemi Ikuforiji, Gbenga Ashafa, Ganiyu Solomon etc.

But we must be seen to be just and fair in our assessment or should we just say our spotlight. We should not be seen to be pointing our light in only one direction. Which is why we have thought to ask the new question above- Where is the so called OPPOSITION in Lagos? Where are the other parties in the opposition on the other side and by extension their candidates? Reason for asking the question is not far-fetched at all, they do not seem to be visible at all. 

Apart from the likes of Ambassador Musiliu Obanikoro & Senator Wahab Dosunmu, both of the PDP. Who both at a time had both shown interest and couldn't muster the massive support that was required to get the sit, no other personality(ies) in the opposition camps is/are seemingly visible. 

This makes one to begin to wonder. If it's just about the ACN in Lagos? Is it that the good works of the Government of Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola of the ACN, has been so colossal/outstanding that the opposition seem to have been pummeled into submission and seem to have lost their voices totally. Or is it a strategy on the side of the opposition not to reveal their trump card(s) yet, until very near the election time and then spring major surprises and flush the ACN out? Or is it that the opposition are seemingly so short on the right kind of people to run for the office of the Governor of the State of Aquatic Excellence, also known as the Center of Excellence, that they can't just be seen to show face? 

What truly is the case? We do not think it should be a BRF/BAT/ACN thing alone. Even if the ACN/APC would win in the long run, let there be a good competition. 

Where are the people? Or have you guys seen or heard about anyone?

WHO IS THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF LAGOS?

 

HON. ADEYEMI IKUFORIJI

SENATOR GANIYU SOLOMON

Many names are been bandied around already though the election that would chose who to replace the incumbent is still far off. Many are of the opinion that the choice of who to replace the current action Governor lies solely with the Asiwaju of Lagos, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu. But our findings shows that it might not be that easy. 


Already as we speak, much politicking is already ongoing in the background, so as to position those who feel they deserve to be the next to vie for the post. But as much as the party in power in Lagos is planning ahead for the next election. The main opposition party is not resting in their bid also to wrest Lagos away from the party on the throne right now. 
 

MUIZ BANIRE

Many names have cropped up in recent times, some of those we have heard about are the likes of former Commissioner for Environment and a top Chieftain of the ACN, in the person of Alhaji Muiz Banire, also on that list is Senator Ganiyu Solomon, a close ally of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, another is Obafemi Hamzat, the current Commissioner for Works in the administration of His excellency, Babatunde Raji Fashola, another also is Mr. Tunde Fowler, the current Tax boss in Lagos, he is the boss of the Lagos State Internal Revenue, another prominent name that has cropped up is that of the Permanent Secretary, Lands in Lagos State, Barrister Hakeem Muri-Okunola, who is the youngest amongst all the names being mentioned, another name we have heard in passing is that of another Commissioner in the present administration, in the person of Gbolahan Lawal. Mr. Lawal used to be the ADC to Asiwaju before and his lot has grown ever since then. One other name that used to be more prominent before was that of the current Speaker of the house in Lagos State, in the person of Honourable Adeyemi Ikuforiji, but that name has gone to the back-burner since the scandal on the mismanagement of a colossal N7 billion. With many of these prominent names coming up daily, many do not know where the pendulum would swing in the case of the Asiwaju, who many believes holds the aces. And just like the Asiwaju did before in his choice of BRF, he might go ahead to surprise everyone again, by totally overlooking all those jostling for the post presently. 

But one very influential person many might be overlooking right now, but whose support might be very important for whoever should emerge to run for the election as the boss of Lagos in the next election, is the current incumbent. As much as people might not be looking his way, his say would be of utmost importance.  Also ready to spring a major surprise as long as they put their house in order is the PDP, but their surprise would depend on them choosing a fantastic personality to represent them.  

Some are of the opinion that ACN or would it be APC then, might not have it so easy this time around ooo. This might be because of some actions taken by this current Government that some might not have liked.




Time would tell anyway. And election time would soon be here. So lets wait and see.
