DID FASHOLA REALLY SAY BUHARI HAS DONE BETTER THAN THE US GOVERNMENT IN TERMS OF INFRASTRUCTURE?

The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, is being reported to have said the All Progressives Congress (APC) led administration of President Muhammadu Buhari has more achievements than the United States government, in terms of infrastructure.

Fashola reportedly stated this in Kano during the APC conversation series, on Thursday.

Is he being misquoted? We'll let you decide Here are Fashola's words according to Daily Trust:

"I can assure you that the present APC administration of resident Buhari has achieved what even the US government is trying to do in terms of infrastructure.

"As at December 2021, we have completed 941 kilometers of roads across all states and geopolitical zones.

"In Kano state here for instance, there are 21 road projects either in, around or in the neighbouring communities.

"Before APC administration, when last do you remember Federal Government completing 50 kilometer road in any part of the country?

"So, this is the positive change we promised Nigerians in 2015 and it is already happening. They say we are the same with them but we are not taking this money back and investing it in the area of infrastructure, Fashola added.
