Fashola added that Agbaje’s knowledge of the state is limited to ‘his being driven from his home to the airport.’

Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State has said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship aspirant, Jimi Agbaje does not know anything about the state.

The governor stated this on Tuesday, March 3, while commissioning the Maidan-Aina-Agiliti network of roads and a bridge in the Kosofe Local Government Area of the state.

Fashola made the comments in response to Agbaje’s allegations that he had not developed any of the slums in the state during his tenure as governor.

“When I hear the pretender to my office who is trapped under the umbrella, I feel so sorry for him because it is becoming more obvious that he does not know Lagos,” Fashola said.

“Because if he knows a place like Maidan- Agiliti, he would not have made such a statement. But as I have said, his knowledge of Lagos is limited to his being driven from his home to the airport,” the governor added.

Fashola had earlier accused Agbaje of evading tax and urged Lagosians not to vote for a lawbreaker.
