He stated this in an interview with our correspondent in Sokoto, on the sideline of the 5th retreat for top management staff of the Ministry.
Reacting to a document circulating on social media about his ministry contributing money for the campaign of President Muhammadu Buhari in the next general elections, Fashola said, he will never do such.
He explained that even though every election campaign needs money but not under his watch will anyone divert tax payers money to fund political party campaign.
Fashola further explained, “we have never did and we will never do it.
“I have seen the the document, it was sent to me and when you see it, you will see the minute on it, saying, ‘Please advise.’
“That is a very serious word from the ministry to say nothing will happen,” he stated.
He however enlightened the public to know that Governmennt is not a place to play politics with public fund.
“I raised some of this observation during the last administration when the then Minister for Finance was attending rallies with Transformation Ambassador of Nigeria, (TAN).
“This doesn’t happen in any other democracy.”
He however gave a pass mark to President Muhammadu Buhari administration for building more infrastructure than the previous governance.
“I can say confidently that we are constructing at least one road in every state of the country. If you go back to last administration, that was not the case,” he stated.
