The Lagos State Government has rubbished claims that it seized N25 million donated to amputee sachet water hawker, Mary Daniel.
Commissioner
for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso said reports on social media
that government seized the money donated to her were untrue.
Omotoso, who
spoke while answering questions on Star FM this morning stated that government
had no plan to deny Daniel of her N25 million donation.
According to
him, what government did was to ensure that she was not molested and safe to do
whatever she intended to do with the money raised for her.
The
commissioner added that Daniel was free to set up her dream supermarket store
in Lagos State since it was in the state fortune smiled on her.
He said that
was a confirmation Lagos State is a land of hope and opportunities.
Reports had
earlier suggested that the state government has seized her N25 million.
