“I want to see the human being FFK mentors actually. Can anybody actually call this man of over 60 of age "my mentor". I am asking an honest question.”

On its part, the Lagos chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has claimed that Tinubu was not responsible for making the state a mega city.

Debunking the claims, the Lagos state chairman of the ADC, George Ashiru, stated that Lagos was built by former governor Lateef Jakande, famously known as 'Baba Kekere' and former military administrators – General Mobolaji Johnson and Brigadier Buba Marwa.
