I bet Fashola to take Lagos to Ilorin road in a public transport. That time we will know if Nigeria road is bad or not

A serious government will fix the power problem in six months – Fashola (even though he later came out to deny that statement)
Nigeria roads are not bad – Fashola
I think Babatunde Fashola is a careless talker & hugely overrated.
He is just a low budget Paul Kagame. 😐

Buhari has a special SPIRIT whose duty is to turn once brilliant people to IDIOTS.
if you doubt, ask Osinbajo, Fashola, Keyamo, etc
