Dear friends, we all know election is just around the corner and we have friends & pals on the other side. So once in a bit, we get into arguments 🥳
Recently a friend asked why I like and support ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU.
See my response issa 🧵

I was able to get bits and BATS from all of what Tinubu has done, with credits to different writes who had written about BATS verifiable track records & other news sources ✍🏽

My sister why not Tinubu, it is easy for us to sit and scream, we want good governance & leadership.

But when it’s time to elect people who can actualize our dream, we go with the mob based on sentiments and biases

It is unfortunate that this election year is seeing the most incompetent humans in the field with one of the best men we can boost of.

Election period we see different propaganda and defamation about different politicians.
The man is not sick as being portrayed, of course he is an elderly man now and we do not expect him to be fit as a fiddle, man is stronger than I am, since the primaries, he has not rested,

campaigning from one state to another back to back.

He is the only one who has his plans properly articulated i his manifesto the renewed hope,
He is the only one with a proven track record, a man who surrounds himself with the best brains and hands if I may say,

He is an old man I agree, but he currently is the one with the capacity to move us forward.
If you hv any friends working with BIRS or FIRS then thank TINUBU.
That was his brain child piloted years back in Lagos, adopted by the FG and subsequently all states in the federation

“I AM STILL WRITING ✍🏽😀
Let me quickly wipe a butt”

There are so many feats he achieved while a Governor, his succession plan is seeing Lagos as the most enviable state in the country and the 5th largest economy in Africa if I am right

CNN has just reported that Lagos is one of the best 20 cities and

best destinations for New Year's Eve celebrations for 2023!

1. Power: Tinubu’s government, in 2000, contracted AES to build an IPP that will generate 270MW of electricity to Lagos residents in order to exit the irrational power supply being provided by the FG. The 270MW is now

part of our national grid. It is the first of it’s Kind. Tinubu electrification project covered over 100 communities. In his first term, 53 rural communities were targeted. The projects were completed in Egan, Atewolere, Ifesowapo, Aboru, Agbado Ayetoro, Akorede, Isheri Ikosi,

Orile Aguntan, Rofo, Borokini, Omologbede, Araromi, Oke Agbo, Erekusu, Logberu, Okegelu and Ebute, Lekki. Others were Origanringan, Onigbolakowe, Oke odo Elemoro, Ipaja Isale odo, Agenuba, etc

2. Decentralization: In order to bring governance closer to the people of Lagos state,

Asiwaju created extra 36 LCDAs which led to the disagreement between Lagos and the OBJ led FG. They are still working till date. Nigeria needs someone who believes in this!
First of it’s kind

3. Economy: With an IGR of just over 600million naira when he took over, different

initiatives which included the reorganization of the LIRS led to an unprecedented IGR of over 7billion monthly after 8 years, the sustainability of which has brought same to 57bn in 2022.

4. Health: Decentralization of the Health Management Board led to the creation of LASAMBUS,

an ambulance management scheme, Hospital Services Commission and Lagos State Health Facility Monitoring and Accreditation Agency. In addition, policies such as “Roll Back Malaria”, “Jigi Bola, Free Health Policy for children below 16 year and adults above 65 years are verifiable

ones that stood him out then. The First of its Kind.

5. Infrastructure: Roads, Railway Roadmaps, Port Roadmaps, Housing Roadmaps. Hospital Roadmaps.
6. Investment: Lekki Free Trade Zone opened Lagos to investors and now several top companies/bodies have their headquarters there

including the biggest consulate office of the USA. Lekki infrastructure company, Eko Atlantic.

7. Housing: Decentralization of the ministry of works and housing gave birth to the conversion of the housing department to a full fledge ministry which was charged with providing 500

units of houses yearly. This single move led to making the Lekki corridor the fastest growing real estate investment haven in Nigeria. Housing sector was opened to the private investors and Lagos became the highest destination for real estate investors in Nigeria.

8. EDUCATION: Payment of WAEC fee for students from all walks of life so far you live in Lagos. Several schools were built. The One-Day governor program started with the spelling bee competition.
First of its kind

9. SECURITY: The closest thing to state policing started in Nigeria under Tinubu, with RRS in 1999. The prisons reformation in order to curb activities of criminals, led to conversion of Ita Oko Prisoners Camp to a Youth Skill Acquisition Centre. Infact RRS is now the most

performing police force in Nigeria. To make things work, he created the Lagos security trust fund where private sector come together to invest in Lagos security in conjunction with the government.

10. ENVIRONMENT: LAWMA, LASEPA, LWC, PUMAU, LASECA. All formulated by
Tinubu to

tackle the issue of environmental decay in Lagos.

11. EMPOWERMENT SCHEMES: The creation of several agencies led to several openings in the government which led to jobs in LASTMA, LAGBUS, LASEWA etc. First of its kind.

12. PPP Initiatives:
-Lekki Free Trade Zone PPP - Tinubu

-Eko Atlantic - PPP Tinubu
-Lagos state security trust fund - Tinubu
-Lekki infrastructure company - Tinubu
-Enron power project PPP - Tinubu
-LSPDC PPP - Tinubu
-Privatisation of Healthcare delivery ( Labs and diagnostic centers) - Tinubu
-Lagos BRT scheme PPP - Tinubu

Lekki concession company PPP - Tinubu.

All these are more are there to be fact check as records of things Baba Asiwaju BAT did.
