Re-Hamzat and the Future of Lagos: Sycophants At Work – My Final Words

By Mobolaji Sanusi

Ordinarily, the reply to my last week’s column’s few lines on Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu by his media lackey would have been overlooked for a reason: The administration was installed by our revered political patriarch, President Bola Tinubu, GCFR. But this counter-response is necessary in order to correct some embedded misinformation.

Therefore, I consider it pertinent to knit together a few paragraphs to put the record straight:

One Tayo Ogunbiyi, Director, Public Enlightenment and Community Relations in the Lagos State Ministry of Information and Strategy whose byline adorned the response, started on a false note when he stated that “there seems to be no other reason for the opinion article written by Mobolaji Sanusi, the one who was fired at The Lagos State Signage and Advertising Agency (LASAA) for alleged incompetence.” Whoever authorized the response, alongside the author, must have been suffering from institutional or historical amnesia.
