BAT’S LONG-RANGE VISION
My name is Hon. Bem Garba, and I am the National Coordinator of APC360. I come from the Vandeikya Local Government Area of Benue State and have contested for the Jechira House of Representatives seat twice (2018/2019 & 2022).
I was born in 1975. I have been around for almost 47 years, and I am in a position to tell a few things about Nigeria that many of my younger ones cannot tell.
I got into politics during the CPC days, and between that time and now, I have learned many things about politics in Nigeria. I have also known about many Nigerian leaders. The things they are capable of saying about the things they can do.
The simple truth is that many of them cannot see far enough into the future of this country. A man can’t do what he cannot see.
I started my primary school education at Command Children School Ikeja Cantonment. I lived in Lagos for most of my secondary school days and through university. I watched Maroko transform into Lekki Phase 1. Growing up, I knew that Lagos state was different from every other state in Nigeria.
Lagos has always been different, and now, at 47, I can tell you some of the reasons WHY!
ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY LAGOS STATE IS THE WAY IT IS TODAY!
Some of the things he achieved during his time as governor include:
- Reformation of the Lagos State Civil Service. Within the public sector, he improved the attitude to work and reduced the general culture of waste.
- He gave incentives for excellence and increased salaries for civil servants.
- He introduced the concept of running public offices efficiently to the extent that public offices became aware of their abilities to generate the incomes they needed to augment the funding they were allocated.
- He introduced payroll reforms that removed thousands of ghost workers from the Lagos State payroll.
- He was highly resourceful in his approach to providing security for Lagosians and Lagos businesses.
- Lagos contributed over 30% to Nigeria’s GDP.
- Etc
BAT experienced problems with the Federal Government at a particular time, and he demonstrated an ability to work under challenging conditions.
Without lip service, MEN LIKE THIS ARE HARD TO FIND!
It is not possible to be liked by all.
Even the Devil tells the truth when he has no choice.
Please share the above account with as many as you can communicate with. These are the personal accounts of a Nigerian who has lived in Lagos, been around other political leaders for many years, and can tell the difference between BAT and the REST!
BAT IS THE MOST VISIONARY CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT THAT NIGERIA HAS IN THE RACE TODAY. THE DECISION TO VOTE FOR BAT SHOULD BE BASED ON LOGIC AND NOT SENTIMENTS!
