Logistically, they have not failed.”
While speaking on the Okota violence in the last elections, he said, “I take exception to two weeks ago Okota incidence, as if we were violent prone. I am very upset about that, taking Lagos as if we were violent. It is not as bad as you see it. ‘If you have 1,325 polling units and only five units were affected by Okota incidence, you can’t say Lagos is being violent. You are not doing justice to us.
“To you people, it is not a story. It is only the incidence that will be a story. So I can’t explain more than that.”He said, “The lowest Internally Generated Revenue was N600m a month. Today it is over N30bn. No state has achieved financial independence as Lagos. Others depend on allocation from the Federal Government. Lagos does not.
