The former Director General of Peter Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organisation, Doyin Okupe, has disclosed how Bola Tinubu once boasted that even if he puts a goat in charge of Lagos State as governor for the next 25 years, the state will continue to progress.
Mr Okupe made this known when he was featured on a Channels TV programme on Thursday evening, stating that Tinubu said this to him during a visit to his house some years ago, before he assumed office.
He (Okupe) argued that the structures built by Tinubu in Lagos are responsible for the continued socioeconomic development in the state, regardless of who is in charge as the governor.
According to his narration, he said, “One day in Bourdillon, on a Saturday morning, I drove by his house, and by strange coincidence, there was nobody in the house. It was just him.

“We spoke for three hours and that was the day I changed my mind about Tinubu. He told me and he showed me the master plan for Lagos. He said if we put a goat as governor from now till the next 25 years, nothing but progress will happen to Lagos.”
” Tinubu is known as the political godfather in Lagos State whose endorsement automatically determines who takes charge of the state”, he added.
