The Nobel Laurette sounded disturbed when he was making his speech at freedom park in Lago about the state of the country and he said Nigeria is in a mess and disintegrating before our eyes.
“We’re in a mess. This country is in a mess. It is disintegrating before our very eyes. The government is floundering. It’s not merely that the government is devoid of a holistic solution, the problem really is that this government does not have a holistic grasp of the problems of the nation and the environment in which we live and the time also in which we live in. After all, look at Sudan right now; it’s in turmoil simply because some people got up one day and decided that an arrangement come into for the governance of that nation be abrogated because they’re carrying the guns. And of course, the people have responded in a marvelous, united way. Doctors, workers, students, market people and the last time, the oil workers, they’ve all got up and said ‘no’ Part of the problem which we have in this nation, and which has plagued us, except for a few memorable times, is this ability to act in concert. From time to time, we have a section of the nation come together and say ‘enough; we’re human beings; we will not be treated like beasts. Like #EndSARS for instance, that’s one such movement. Unfortunately, it ended somewhat tragically. But it doesn’t matter; it was a step in the right direction. What I’m trying to say to you is this. If we’re still looking to this government for solution, then I think we really are lost. We’ve got to find a way of piling up pressure to enable us to meet as equal beings across the entire nation for a national indaba, involving the various professions, group interests, ethnic groups — any productive sector of this nation should be encouraged to come together and really debate the future of this nation. We’re going along piecemeal solutions all the time. One way or the other, one misses that sense of a grasp of the totality and understanding of the connection of one part of governance, one part of civic society to the others.” he said

The Minister for works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola call on state governors to make sure rents payments is made monthly and not yearly in a bid to make more houses available for Nigerians.
The former Lagos state Governor made this known during 10th Meeting of the National Council on Lands, Housing and Urban Development in Ikeja, Lagos on Thursday, October 21.
“We may not be able to make all people homeowners, but we can reduce the number of those who lack shelter or live on the edge every so often when rent is falling due. I am sure that our country will be a much better place when three years rent in advance, two years rent in advance or one year rent in advance for middle class and working family residential homes becomes monthly rent, payable at the end of the month. Why we may not get there immediately, this is an area of immense exclusion that we can remedy by legislative action at state level. This is a matter in which the Federal Government has no legislative competence. It is a matter for the states, and I urge you not to turn your backs.All state legislators must see this as an important area of representation of their people to make life easier. So must governors and commissioners through executive bills” Fashola said
