Babatunde Fashola, minister of
power, works, and housing, says the Muhammadu Buhari-led government is
repairing the road to former president Olusegun Obasanjo’s house.
Fashola disclosed this in a
recent interview with Toyosi Akerele-Ogunsiji, stating that he is firmly behind
the candidacy of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Speaking on the Lagos-Abeokuta
Expressway, Fashola said the first thing is that Buhari’s government has
started work there, after it was ignored by past governments, including
Obasanjo’s government.
“We have started work o, some
people wey dey write letter since, e dey there, na the road to their house,
them no do anything,” Fashola said in pidgin English.
“And all the money wey you say
them spend, now make you ask, them spend money there? Them no spend money now,
the money waka. Na Buhari come do am, after 16 years wey them dey government,”
he told TheSheet in an interview.
“Even the one wey them con endorse
now, he no dey there that time? Make I tell you one thing, there is no state
wey dey this country, wey this government no dey do one road.”
Fashola said the government was
fixing as much as five roads in some states, while some other states had three
to four roads currently being fixed.
Asked if he would be running for
president in the future, Fashola said “let us leave the future in the future,”
that he is currently running with President Muhammadu Buhari.
He said previous governments owed
contractors many billions of naira, but the Buhari-led admin has been faithful
with contractors and paying in time.
