FOI: Despite Court Of Appeal Ruling, Lagos Refuses To Open Its Books by Blue3k2: 2:16pm On Aug 17, 2018 |
Despite a Court of Appeal decision in April stating that the Freedom of Information Act is applicable to all states in Nigeria, the Lagos State government has refused to disclose its education budget.

If the appellate courts cant agree the supreme court needs to step in to give final ruling. Alot of fraud will be uncovered if the supreme court agrees that FOI applies to all tiers of government. If they dont people have to get law passed in their state if they care about transparency. Front page: Lalasticlala 4 Likes |

Lawlessness as usual. Some zombie here will probably say that the Lagos State Government doesn't have to be accountable or open its books to scrutiny because Lagosians can see schools, teachers are paid salaries and education has not been abandoned. After all according to him, Lagosians are not 'stewpid or ignorant'. deomelo: 37 Likes 5 Shares |

Open up the books and shoot themselves in the foot. The lack of transparency in auditing public spending in Lagos is what enables the likes of THIEF-NUBU to live large at the public expense. And this is Lagos, the political headquarters of the Association of Professional Clowns (APC) which says it is fighting corruption. 25 Likes 4 Shares |

Sai Baba Ambode is working Anybody who asks for information on the finances of Lagos state is an IPOB member according to my Biafra brother deomelo Some days back we heard how the governments of Benue and Akwa Ibom were being investigated by EFCC with their accounts frozen. I wonder what will happen if they ever decide to investigate the dealings of the Lagos state government. Until then, we are yet to start fighting corruption. 2 Likes |
