According to
a budget report on the website of the Lagos State Public Procurement Agency
(LSPPA), the contract was awarded to Info Access Plus Limited.
Former Lagos
State Governor, Mr Babatunde Fashola has broken his silence over media reports
which emerged last Saturday, detailing how the Lagos State Government under his
watch as Governor, spent the sum of N78 million for the upgrade of the website
– www.tundefashola.com.
Following
mixed reactions that trailed the reports, Fashola in a statement on Thursday
night, denied the allegation, comparing his accusers with pigs who get “happy”
when they get you “dirty.”
Barring any
last minute change, since strong rumours emerged that Fashola’s name may have
been penciled down to be appointed minister by President Muhammadu Buhari, he
has come under scrutiny, including allegations that he fathered a set of twins
outside wedlock, left Lagos state in huge debts and played a key role in the
emergence of leaders of the National Assembly.
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.
