Governor Fashola while speaking at APC’s rally yesterday in
Epe disclosed that the $20bn allegedly declared missing under President
Goodluck Jonathan’s administration can build 10 Burj Khalifa
in Dubai, which is
the tallest building in the world. Fashola made the mathematics clear, when he
went ahead
to break it down
saying, the building was only built with $1.5bn,
while a whole $20bn which can built 10 in Nigeria with some billion
dollars still remaining has been declared missing and gone. He also
emphasized how the building has attracted the
world to Dubai, leaving us to imagine how Nigeria would have been if the
money
was utilized well. His words after the cut.
“Rather than develop strategies that would improve the
economy, the current administration inflicted pains on the citizens.
“The Burj Khalifa building in Dubai was built with $1.5bn to
arrest the attention of the world. This administration has lost $20bn. The
money lost by the current administration could be used to build 10 of the
structure, he said.
“We are the only oil producing country that is importing oil
products. They spent over N2tn to import petrol,” Fashola emphasized.
