“I did not fathered 3 children outside marriage”- Fashola

The immediate-past Governor of Lagos State, Mr Babatunde Fashola, has eventually broken his silence.

Fashola has come under scrutiny in recent times, including allegations that he fathered a set of twins outside wedlock, left Lagos state in huge debts and awarded a N78 million contract to upgrade a website registered in his name.

Fashola who denied all the rumours.

On the issue of extra marital paternity, he said he only adopted three children who were orphaned by the Dana crash of 2012, stating that he went through due process.

He denied any involvement in the national assembly leadership elections, and said all the loans he took as Lagos governor went through due process and they are being repaid.

Fashola however, disclosed that he also met debts when he became governor in 2007 after the eight-year tenure of his predecessor Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
