Babatunde Fashola, minister of works and housing, says politicians can win elections without “exaggerating” the nation’s problems.
Fashola said this on Thursday while delivering a keynote address at TheNiche annual lecture, with the theme ‘2023 Elections and the Future of Nigeria’s Democracy’ in Lagos. The minister said rather than exploit the country’s challenges, politicians can highlight its prospects.
“We can win elections without exaggerating our problems. We can do so by offering credible service and well thought out solutions,”
We can win elections without disrobing our country before the global community. We can do so by valorising Nigeria’s possibilities and not by widening her fault lines
“Elections and democracy must represent for us, a feast of ideas and choices that bring out the best of us and the best of our country.”
