Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babatunde Fashola has responded to a statement credited to Pres Jonathan on his visit to Lagos where he said he has come to free Lagosians from bondage. The governor said "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.
Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, on Sunday alleged that President Goodluck Jonathan had spent five days in the state, holding meetings with different people and doling out monies in hard currencies to them.
Speaking after inspecting some ongoing projects in Ibeju-Lekki and on Lagos Island yesterday, Gov. Fashola expressed disappointment at some statements credited to the president at some of the meetings with the interest groups at the State House, Marina.
He said: “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”, the governor said while reacting to statements credited to President Jonathan.
