‘Unproven, no evidence’ – Fashola plays down allegations against Tinubu

The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola has insisted that the allegations against the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, are “unproven”.

Fashola stated this while speaking during an interview with Channels Television on Sunday.

According to him, the outcome of the 2023 presidential election proved Nigerians weren’t bothered about the controversies trailing Tinubu.

In the build-up to the February 25 election, there were questions about Tinubu’s educational background, age, family and source of wealth.

But Fashola said: “Governance is not about sainthood. It is about efficiency, performance, and delivery.

“You must understand that we should not be looking for saints.

“All of the allegations that were levelled against him have been either unproven or no evidence offered in support of them but they have run along for a while.”
