Piqued by Newspapers advertisements, canvassing support for him ahead of 2015 presidential election, the Governor of Lagos state, Babatunde Raji Fashola, has dissociated himself from the unsolicited advertisement.
Hakeem Bello, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Governor, in a statement at the weekend described the advertisers as “unknown persons”.
His statement reads, “This is to disclaim and dissociate the Governor and the State Government from this unsolicited and unwarranted venture.
“This is against the backdrop of the fact that Governor Babatunde Fashola (SAN) is focused on sustaining the high tempo of development engendering governance right till the end of his second tenure in Office and therefore cannot yield to distractions by any individual or group of mischief makers.
“Members of the public are hereby implored to ignore the said advert and also be wary of the antics of people with such dubious intentions. Please be vigilant”.
