Speaking on TVC from 0:48, Fashola said, “There’s just not anything exciting on the other side. Those who want a change of government just want the president to go but what are you giving us instead? We’re not seeing those competing ideas to say this is how I would have done it differently. This is what I would have done instead,” he said.
Fashola said a genuine policy debate would give Nigerians the basis to make an informed choice between competing visions for the country. “That would have put us in a place to then say, look, this idea sounds much more compelling than the other one. So it’s not just okay to say things are not working. The question is how do you plan to make it even better?” he said.
