Fashola as Lagos governor once swung the big warhammer against doctors in the state during a strike. He shattered them with a mass sack and all the people who has been raised during military governments and who don't understand the subtle art of how government shares power and uses soft power praised him.
Fashola's move broke the strike of course and the hospitals limped back to work. But he had broken a dam as well; for thereafter, the exodus of Nigerian doctors to the UK began in ernest. The insult was too much for them and they began to piggyback one another to London. The mass immigration of Nigerian doctors to Europe and the West Indies is yet to abate. And if you consult the statistic Insane no doubt you will see a clear uptick in the rate of patients deaths in public hospitals since that very month of Fashola's sack.
Don't worry, release another bull into your porcelain shop to solve ASUU strike problems. Browbeat and humiliate the lecturers thoroughly. You are government and party backers. You can always plough your way through. is not your power unstoppable and are the objects not immovable? Like Babangida said in his days in the sun, you can always demonstrate that you are "not only in government, but also in power".
