Read Governor Fashola’s take on the two BMW cars bought for
Stella Oduah below
“It is sad to know that the Federal Government
that allocate three patrol vehicles for one state police command of 370, 000
police men, is unable to resolve how N255 million was used to purchase 2 saloon
vehicles for one officer. It is a very grave irony. The cost of average vehicle
needed to patrol the state is just N5 million. And with such fund, we will have
put at least 51 patrol vehicles on the road, patrolling the streets of Lagos.”
"In spite of all this, they resist the idea of a state
police. The money from the fund was in the last one year used to provide
vehicles for the Nigerian Prison Service, National Drug Law Enforcement Agency,
NDLEA, Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, National Security and Civil Defense
Corps, NSCDC and indeed the airport wing of the Nigerian police, is funded from
this money. And it is the same aviation ministry that manage the airport that
we had this very odious car scandal of N255 million.”
