Jonathan distributed dollars to groups while in Lagos last week - Gov Fashola

Reacting to a statement credited to President Jonathan that the PDP will set Lagos residents free from bondage if elected into government, Governor Fashola alleged that during his visit to Lagos lastweek, pres. Jonathan doled out dollars to all the groups he met with at the State House in Marina. Fashola made the allegation while inspecting some ongoing projects in Ibeju-Lekki yesterday Feb. 22nd
"I want to assume that he did not make a statement that he would deliver Lagos residents from bondage. The question to ask Mr. President is whether he'd come to free them from bondage. He was here for 5 days meeting with different people and groups, distributing money in dollars. It is an un-presidential statement made in an act of desperation. That means he lived in bondage in five days if he had come into the state to free people. If he can live here for five days moving with patrol vehicles that we paid for, let him go and spend five days in Chibok and he will know what bondage is,” the governor said
