“GE Jonathan Gave Lagosians Bribe In US Dollars” – Fashola Tells GEJ To Visit Chibok
Feb 23, 2015 – “GE Jonathan Gave Lagosians Bribe In US Dollars” – Fashola Tells GEJ To Visit Chibok
Lagos State Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola has exposed Jonathan.
The trail blazer Governor accused the President of distributing raw US dollars during his 5-day visit to Lagos.
Fashola said Jonathan met with different strategic groups and gave them dollars in order to win their favour.
He disclosed this yesterday after inspecting projects in Lekki area of Lagos.
During the five days, Jonathan reached out to different groups such as traditional rulers, cooperative societies, market women and others in his bid to garner support for his ambition which might be one of the reasons for the postponement of the elections from February to 28 March and 11 April.
The governor was reacting to a statement credited to Jonathan that he would liberate Lagosians from bondage
He asked the president to attempt to spend the five days he spent in Lagos at Chibok in Borno State.
“I want to assume that he did not make a statement that he would deliver Lagos residents from bondage. The question to ask Mr. President is whether he had come to free them from bondage.
“He was here for five days meeting with different people and groups, distributing money in dollars. It is an un-presidential statement made in an act of desperation. That means he lived in bondage in five days if he had come into the state to free people. If he can live here for five days moving with patrol vehicles that we paid for, let him go and spend five days in Chibok and he will know what bondage is,” he said.

Point of correction: Jonathan did nothing to the naira. The dollar has become very strong that the Canadian dollar that used to be sronger than the US dollar is now 1.1, almost the same exchange rate as the euro which was 1.5 at some point. The pound Sterling is now less than 1.6 to a dollar. Jonathan caused that too? Give Jonathan some credit, for goodness sake. What about Federal roads? He did nothing too? The railways? He built on the railroad foundation, which everyone wrote off including Buhari. You all should stop making it look like Jonathan is the architect of Nigerian problems. Corruption has been synonymous with Nigeria, from day one. That was why there was chaos after independence five years after. My solution, hold a national conference and allow each kingdom stand independently. Buhari? God forbid.
