The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State has praised Governor Akinwumi Ambode for resuscitating abandoned projects under the Babatunde Fashola government, saying there are signs that Lagosians are feeling the impact of Governor Ambode in Lagos.
In a statement by its publicity secretary, Mr Taofik Gani, the party warned President Muhammadu Buhari against relying on the unverified claims of achievements of Fashola as Minister of Power, Works and Housing.
According to the party, “Without adopting the government of Ambode, at least we can now see signs of government presence in some erstwhile abandoned areas under Fashola.”
The party accused the former governor of allegedly promoting mediocrity, propaganda and inappropriate speculation.
The party opined that Fashola was unfit, being a lawyer, to occupy such combined ministries of engineering specialities.
The party said: “This patriotic advise is on the heels of the minister celebrating a proposed injection of a mere 30 megawatts of power from the gurara-hydro power plant, when indeed the minister has collected monumental funding well enough to have injected over 500 megawatts into the national grid.”
