The Lagos State House Assembly on Tuesday set up a committee to investigate the purchase of 820 buses by the administration of former governor Ambode
During Tuesday’s plenary, Mr Yishawu said the House was worried that 520 buses were still awaiting clearance from the bonded warehouse and the Port, waiting to be cleared and that they were purchased with taxpayers’ money without approval.
“N45 billion would be spent on the total purchase of the buses and we need to prevent such an occurrence in the future,” he added. Members of the committee, according to the Speaker include Mr Yishawu, Bisi Yusuff , Olanrewaju Afinni , Rasheed Makinde , Yinka Ogundimu , Mojisola Miranda and others. In his contribution earlier, Yinka Ogundimu stated that the House needed to investigate every transaction that had to do with the procurement of the buses.“A huge amount of money still needed to be paid on the purchase of these buses. Whoever has erred should be brought to book,” he said.
