Fashola's Appointment Is Overfeeding - Fasehun

Dr Frederick Fasehun, the leader of Yoruba
nationalist organization, Oodua Peoples
Congress (OPC) has described Fashola’s
three-in-one ministerial portfolio as
‘overfeeding’.

The Punch reports that Fasehun said this in a
statement on Tuesday, November 17.
He said:
“Fashola must shun projects like those that
became controversial during his tenure as
governor, including installing tollgates on the
highways and building highbrow government
houses that were priced beyond the reach of the
poor.”

“Fashola’s image will be further enhanced if he
embarks on the mass provision of low-cost
housing for the poor and other programmes that
will improve the living standards of the average
Nigerian. We always had the faith that with his
achievements in Lagos, Fashola would someday
attain a higher level but we least expected it
would be in the form of being overfed with three
major ministries.
“However, all that glitters is not gold. But as
nothing is impossible with God, we hope and
pray that this heavy load will be featherweight
so that he can meet the expectations of
Nigerians generally, not Lagosians alone.”
About two weeks ago, Fasehun had
expressed doubts over the possibility of
President Buhari recovering looted funds
stashed in other countries. He had said the
president must first clean his own house and
let others learn from the way he did it.
