Former Governor of Lagos State and Minister of Works, Housing and Power, Babatunde Raji Fashola, did not vote on Saturday at Lagos’ Local Government election held across the state. Reporters and residents around Ward G3, Unit 002, State Senior Grammar School, Itolo, where he normally cast his vote, waited endlessly for the Senior Advocate of Nigeria.
Some APC stalwarts feel that the former governor ought to have led by example by showing up in Lagos to cast his vote as other top leadership of the party did.
Reacting to this, his spokesman, Hakeem Bello, said Fashola was busy with official duties.
“The Honourable Minister was in Abuja, busy with his assigned responsibilities,” He said.
