Funso Doherty, the governorship candidate of the Action Democratic Congress (ADC) in Lagos, has raised concerns over the allocation of public funds in an open letter to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Doherty scrutinized the register of public procurement awards for the second and third quarters of 2023, citing projects that demand closer examination.
Notable mentions include N18 million for the distribution of 2,000 Noiler chickens, N440.75 million for a Bullet Proof Sport Utility Vehicle for the Chief of Staff, and a hefty N2.02 billion for the provision of rechargeable fans, lights, and a fridge in the deputy governor's office.
Doherty emphasizes the need for judicious use of public funds amid these eyebrow-raising allocations.
