Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu I, on Wednesday, said that residents of Lagos should desist from
blaming the president over infrastructure deficit in the state, rather,
former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo should be held responsible.
He spoke at the public presentation of the book titled; “The life of James Pinson
Labulo Davies: A colossus of Victorian Lagos and Worthy in character and
learning,” authored by Prof. Elebute at the Metropolitan Club, Lagos.
Akiolu
lamented that the eight years administration of Obasanjo which begun in
1999 and ended in 2007 denied the state of its due rights.
According to the Oba, “I told the President about six days ago that no one should play politics with development.
