TO WORK IN TINUBU’S ADMINISTRATION, I DON’T NEED A TITLE, SAYS FASHOLA.

Babatunde Fashola, a former minister of works and housing, has declared that the President Bola Tinubu government, which in his opinion is producing the next generation of leaders, does not require him to hold a title in order to serve in it.

This was stated by Fashola, a trusted adviser to Tinubu, in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday at the Lagos State University in Ojo.

He went there to give the opening remarks at the university’s sixth research and innovation fair.

In response to a query on his role in the current administration at the federal level and the likelihood of an appointment, the former governor of Lagos State, who previously served as Tinubu’s chief of staff while the president was the state’s governor, made a statement.

I don’t need a title to serve, he declared, adding that the president can only designate representatives from each state that he has done so, such as at least one minister.

Since there aren’t enough offices to accommodate everyone, and our population is predicted to exceed 200 million, parastatals are making do with what they have.

We all have civic responsibilities, and a citizen is someone who serves without regard to position.

“Being a citizen and carrying out our responsibility is the most important title you need; we’re also talking about the next generation.

“Where is the location for the next batch if some do not move on?”

He asserted that when spaces change, it is necessary to add more exceptional, public-spirited individuals to fill them.

Fashola expressed his excitement for the administration including a lot more young individuals.
