Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola addressed youths at a summit
organised by the Youth Wing of the (APC) in
Lagos yesterday Nov. 11. Speaking on the theme of the summit, “A New Nigeria by New Nigerians", he
said that after years of Pres. Jonathan leading Abuja, first as an
acting president and later his four-year presidential tenure, the
Federal Capital still has challenges of irregular power supply, water
shortage, poor accommodation, poor transportation, poor traffic
management&security.
"If Mr.
President had managed the FCT well, there should be regular power supply
at d centre of attraction in d country. I was in Abuja recently &
I got hooked-up in traffic. So many things are not working in Abuja,
the seat of our federal government. In Lagos, we have strived to add
value to peoples’ lives and living.
We have demonstrated what a good
government should be seen doing and that is why Lagos is attractive to
people from far and near. The president should transform Abuja first for
people to see. A new Nigeria that we desire should be a safer
and more secured Nigeria, where our children will not be kidnapped and
we will not be bombed out of existence but can live our lives to the
fullest and we can enjoy electricity. In the new Nigeria, citizens
expect government to account for resources and put an end to the
frequent disappearance of billions of dollars from the federation
account without cogent explanation.” He said
