CHAMPIONS
FOR NIGERIA - IN DEFENCE AND SUPPORT OF GOV TUNDE FASHOLA - Akintokunbo A Adejumo
31st
January 2010
Champions
for Nigeria
(CFN), a registered
global organisation, based in the United Kingdom wishes
to pronounce our unalloyed solidarity and support
for the government of Governor Babatunde Fashola, Executive
Governor of Lagos State. In the face of orchestrated
campaign of calumny against the best civil administration
and governance in the political stratosphere of Nigeria
in recent times, with visible evidence of progressive
leadership and executive responsibility, socio-economic
growth and macro and micro- stabilisation, we reject all
the phantom lies of recklessness peddled against Gov
Fashola.
It is in no doubt the handiwork of forces of evil
and backwardness, who are confused about the achievement
that has been recorded by the BRF administration in
a space of 2 years to the wide acclaim and admiration
of Nigerians home and abroad and also the international
community. The effort of these detractors is openly aimed
at slowing the momentum of progress in the state
and to cause unwarranted distraction to the development
agenda of the Civil and modern administration of Lagos
state under the leadership of Gov. Babatunde Fashola.
Governor Fashola has demonstrated times and again
his love for the people of Lagos state and he has communicated
his policies and programme in a very transparent manner
at different fora with Lagosians and people of Nigeria
in the Diaspora. He has secured an understanding of
the people to deliver on the dividends of democracy
to Nigerians in the most populous city in Nigeria. With
the results on the ground, he has demonstrated that governance
is not business as usual to the satisfaction of
Lagosians and Nigerians far and wide and for the first
time in many years Nigerian have a state to be proud
of because of this visionary and selfless leadership
of Gov Fashola. He retains our confidence in the
use and appropriation of taxpayers funds as deemed
fit
within the context of his development agenda and
Lagosians are not fools not to notice the transformational
influence
of his administration at every corner of the state.
Governor Fashola administration has become a benchmark
for progress and state administration and a blue
print for modern day style of governance, proactive,
responsive,
responsible, moderate, creative, fair and approachable.
Champions for Nigeria CFN, as an organisation that
promote excellence, leadership, dedication, commitment and
accountability therefore reject all the peddled and
sponsored stories of misappropriation by faceless people
against the administration of Governor Fashola. We emphasised
that what we see on the ground is a tip of the
iceberg in terms of physical, moral and social
development of Lagos state and certainly it drowns every
effort by mischievous group of people to tarnish
the well earned image of our dear governor. We
will like to remind those in the business of carrying
rumours and vendetta against the governor, that our
support, indeed Nigerians support for BRF is not
personal but it is symbolically spiritual given that
the administration of Gov Fashola entered a
contract of good leadership and purposeful service
with Lagosians
and we have no reason regardless of what is peddled
or written, to think that he has let us down.
We would therefore strongly advised the detractors
of this administration to find another volition
elsewhere as Nigerians home and abroad are pleased
with the
pace
of progress in Lagos under this administration
and our support and recognition of his achievement
is profound.
Champions for Nigeria (CFN) ask the questions...WHO
IS AFRAID OF FASHOLA? WHO ARE THE ENEMIES OF PROGRESS
IN LAGOS STATE? WHO ARE THEIR SPONSORS? Nigerians are
in support of His Excellency, Gov Babatunde
Raji Fashola and his developmental, visionary and
productive leadership of the state.
Long Live Nigeria, Long Live Lagos State and Long
Live Champions for Nigeria.
