Ex-minister Babatunde Fashola said he did not receive security votes when he was governor of Lagos State.
“This security vote thing – whenever I hear some of my colleagues talk about it, I don’t know what it means because I never had it in Lagos. Well, maybe you were the governor, but I was the governor, so I speak for what I know,” he said.
“I was the governor; there was no security vote. All our acquisitions were domiciled in the Ministry of Budget and Planning. So you were saying governors received something as a security vote. I don’t know if Governor Saraki [who was part of the panel] got that kind of money. I didn’t get it, and I don’t know where they were getting it.”
