I know the LASG must have spent some money on this botched visit. But the figure quoted by PDP is just exaggeration.

Re: Ambode Spent N3.2bn On Cancelled Buhari’s Visit–pdp by Dapyem(m): 1:19pm On May 26, 2016

Just like Wike spent 10bn on PDP National Convention that was later suspended.
No evidence adduced to both allegations though.

The Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos has accused the All Progressives Congress-led state government of allegedly spending N3.2bn to do a facelift of the state in anticipation of the botched visit of President Muhammadu Buhari.

The PDP slammed Governor Akinwunmi Ambode for embarking on a hasty beautification of Lagos, particularly by placing flags and pictures around the areas marked for the passage of the President.

In a statement issued on Wednesday by the spokesperson for the PDP in the state, Gani Taofik, the party described the preparations for the aborted visit of the President as a fraud.

The party stated, “The purported preparations for the aborted visit of President Buhari to Lagos State was a fraud and another confirmation that the APC is too haphazard in governance, hence the disconnection between the state governor and the Presidency. This made the state not to know that the President had changed his mind on visiting the state.

“Governor Ambode must be accountable for the over N3.2bn claimed to have been expended on the botched visit of the President. In the opinion of the PDP, inviting the President to inaugurate ordinary rehabilitation of roads, which are not even more than seven in a state with 245 wards, is a clear mismanagement of public funds, misplacement of priority and evidence of the APC propagandists’ style. Governor Ambode must, therefore, refund what was purportedly spent.”

Reacting to the allegation in a text message sent to our correspondent, the spokesperson for the APC in the state, Joe Igbokwe, said Governor Ambode would never spend such an amount on a visit.

Igbokwe described the PDP as a lazy group of people seeking attention.

He said, “The Lagos PDP, if it still exists, has become a pathetic party led by people with a third-rate sense. Tell me the meaning of this insinuation that N3.2bn was spent for just a visit to Lagos by the President. Does it make sense at all? What point is the PDP trying to make with this gaffe?

“The PDP is a group of idle minds. Lagos PDP is confused, helpless and hopeless. Now, the PDP needs to get a life. If you know Governor Ambode very well, his training and public service, it will not be too hard to know that he can never waste that kind of money for just a visit.”

Let apc give us their own figures of how much they spend.

Re: Ambode Spent N3.2bn On Cancelled Buhari’s Visit–pdp by Boss13: 1:35pm On May 26, 2016

Joe Igbokwe was asked a simple question and he used the opportunity to call the PDP names. If he is unaware of the amount spent, he should have asked.

Pertinent questions raised by the PDP is

- why did Ambode spend N3.2bn for the president's visitation that never took place?

- why is the president visiting Lagos to commission repairs of roads?

These are serious questions that requires urgent answers.

. The question you suppose dey ask sef be: why does almost every basic project need expensive and time-consuming "commissioning"? Borehole o, we go commission...health centre o, we go commission. Why can't these basic projects just be completed and the govt moves on to the next one? One wonders what these political leaders think when they prepare for these "commissionings". Do they expect some sort of praise singing for the very job responsibility they were voted into office to perform? 3billion Naira gone just like that! Money wey the govt suppose inject into sensitive areas that deserve such investment. Na wa o. And if David Cameron say we be fantastic people again, we go begin vex.
