Contrary to its earlier position at Thursday plenary on donations to COVID-19 to the executive, the Lagos State House of Assembly has made a u-turn saying it is yet to conclude on its deliberation on the issue.
The House said “There were no conclusions or decisions reached by the lawmakers at the sitting on Thursday, May 7, 2020,” the statement from the Assembly signed the spokesperson of the Assembly, Hon. Tunde Braimoh read.
Discrediting the report in some sections of the media which said that the Assembly asked Governor Sanwo-Olu to account for the COVID-19 funds donated to the state, the statement said it passed the coronavirus pandemic law to empower the governor to carry out some functions relating to covid-19. It described the efforts of Sanwo-Olu and his team in the fight against the spread of COVID-19 pandemic as worthwhile.Braimoh said that the House never particularly asked the Governor to start accounting for the donations as reported, especially at a time when the challenge is still being tackled.
