The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, on Tuesday, said that he earned political relevance through debates against his opponents.
He also recounted that he decided to vote for Moshood Abiola against Bashir Tofa in the 1993 presidential election after watching their debate. “On election day, what you’re probably likely to see is a ballot paper with the signs, symbols, possibly the names of the candidates, but doesn’t tell you what they do about your life, what they care about, how you feed them, doesn’t tell you whether they are God-fearing, whether they have empathy.
Mr Fashola’s views were also shared by the Executive Secretary of Nigerian Elections Debate Group, Edward Emessiri; a veteran TV host, Ngozi Alaegbu; and a former presidential spokesman, Olusegun Adeniyi, who served as a moderator of the session.
