I think it is a good point you raised, it think it is extremely ridiculous and I say it without apology, we begin to choose offices for a nation that represents the largest black nation on earth on social media and we should stop it.

I think we have elected the president, let us wait for him to be sworn in and let us respect the privilege and the prerogative he has to constitute his team, no serious nation does what rascals are doing on social media, saying this one is this, this one is that, picking ministers and so on.

We just saw over two years ago when Biden was elected, there were nothing like that, we should stop ridiculing this country, it is not social engagement.

The interviewer asked again And you will not be playing such a role

Fashola answered I think it is extremely ridiculous, look we cant begin to even contemplate what the presidentelect will do and we should wait when he makes his decision.

Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola has described the rumours going around that he will be Presidentelect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubus Chief of Staff, as extremely ridiculous.

Fashola, in an interview on Channels TVs Sunday Politics, said he is unlikely to become Tinubus Chief of Staff this time around after he played that role for four and half years when Tinubu was governor of Lagos State.

When asked directly by the interviewer if he would be playing the role this time around, Fashola replied Unlikely, I dont think so.
