The immediate past governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, has said he did not corruptly enrich himself in the controversial N78 million personal website deal executed under his administration.
Answering questions from senators at the ongoing ministerial screening on Wednesday, Fashola said even his critics did not accuse him of corruptly enriching himself in the controversial deal.
“I don’t award contracts because there is a tenders board in place. They do market survey to get the price benchmark for these things. There is a process and we have consultants who check these things periodically. Nobody has alleged that I have corruptly enriched myself.”
Explaining further on the controversy, Fashola said suspicion arises wherever money is involved, even among brothers.
Asked to state his concept of loyalty, the former governor described loyalty as strange concept, saying “I have always prayed that may our loyalty never be tested.
