Re-Branding Nigeria: Governor Babatunde Fashola's Style
What have you done lately to assist Governor Babatunde Fashola (SAN) of Lagos State in his laudable projects of both social and economic reformation of Lagos, the most populous state in West Africa?
~ Hope Obioma Opara, the Publisher of Supple Magazine in Nigeria
This is a question for everyone in Lagos state and indeed what Babatude Fashola is doing is the best practical example of how best to re-brand Nigeria.
Leadership is best by example and the method of the commendable governor of Lagos state is worthy of emulation as he is using good administration to combat corruption.
He is already changing the old dirty and filthy image of Lagos by making repairs of the damaged roads, improving the health care service, educational system and civil service. Babatunde Fashola has achieved in only two years what the former governor Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu could not achieve in eight years.

Whereas it is true that H.E, BRF has performed above average, Asiwaju BAT did well, considering the environment. Take alook at Lagos Island.
Also recall BAT fought the FGN every step of the way before he could do anything. The state share of Federal funds was even seized by the FGN for years, and only recently released to BRF.
In all Lagos is unique. The least that Lagosians can do is to continue to pray to God to give us good leaders.
We only hope the FGN can learn a thing or two from the state. That is all the rebranding we need at this time.
