Former Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State made a provocative statement, on Monday, challenged the widely-held notion that Bola Tinubu, the current President of Nigeria, built Lagos State during his tenure as governor.
Lamido made this claim in an interview on ChannelsTV’s Politics Today on Monday.
The former governor asserted that Lagos was developed using Nigerian resources, citing the construction of the port, airport, and bridges. He downplayed Tinubu’s role in the state’s growth, stating, “He never built Lagos.”
