Following the cancelled visit of the President, Muhammadu Buhari to Lagos, the Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has made shocking revelations pertaining to the botched visit.
According to the State PDP, the Governor, Akinwumi Ambode allegedly spent a total sum of N3.2 billion in preparation to receive the President.
The State PDP in reaction described the botched visit as “a fraud and another expose that the APC is too haphazard in governance, hence the total disconnect between the state governor and the Presidency, thereby causing the state not to know that the president had changed his mind on visiting the state.”
The Lagos State PDP further in the statement released by its Publicity Secretary, Taofiq Gani, said: “We demand that the over N3.2bn claimed to have been spent to welcome the president to Lagos must be accounted for.
“The beneficiaries of the contracts and the costs of the contracts involved in the ceremonies must be made public for Lagosians to know. This is needless waste of public funds.”
