Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola has challenged Nigerians to give the young generation an opportunity to express themselves through their talents, adding that not all can cope with western style education.

Lagos State Governor Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola SAN (R) with Nigeria's International Music Act, Dapo Daniel Oyebanjo popularly known as D'Banj (M) and former Governor of Lagos State Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (L) during the Launching of the Musician Album and Foundation  in Lagos at the weekend.

He made this known at the launch of the Koko Foundation, Governor Fashola said with the support of Lagosians and creator of the Foundation, ace musician D'banj, better days lie ahead for the State.

Speaking also at the launch, immediate former Governor of the State Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu commended D'banj for his compassion shown by the birth of the Foundation.

According to Tinubu, the spirit of "Mr. Possible" that D'banj personifies is capable of being instilled onto all Nigerian youths and allowing them to actualise their dreams through the Foundation.
