Nice comment bros dont mind the Haters, for they will never get anywhere with their propaganda
in my own opinion before they come out to criticize lets see what they have done positively for their family members,talk more of their community let alone their state.

I have been a fan of Fashola, but I have no doubt he's not being sincere here.. The contract was quoted at 78million after it has been approved, not before approval as he alleged.. The fact that 78million naira of tax payers' funds were deducted from budgetary allocations, and expended on maintaining a wordpress website of such caliber, puts a huge question mark of Gov Fashola's much touted integrity.. I also wish he could throw more light of the allegations that he expended 1.2billion to construct just 6 pedestrian crosses along Lekki Epe expressway, (which to the best of my knowledge, there are less than six of such crosses along that axis) as reflected on the published budgetary expenditures.

I was expecting Fashola to deny the fact that 78m was actually spent.

Let me be very honest, EVEN IF there's child's play on the part of Lagos State Government or BRF, this response is so civil, responsible, matured and intelligent to make opponents and proponents of the accusations look like fools!. And yes truly, everyone was alarmed that an "Upgrade" costs so much but with this explanation of other things involved, I am surprised it costs that less - this is coming from an IT expert.

ONYI P.K. said...

BRF, may I advise that you tow the line of the Alcoholic Anonymous (AA) which says: "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change those I can; and, wisdom to know the difference." You have proffered explanation to the best of your knowledge but your detractors will not agree with you. And, believing the theory of AA, it means that the allegations will unchangeably remain allegations but the difference will be the Consciences (nurtured by truth) of both your accusers and you. Conscience they say, is a great wound and only truth can heal it.

Tinubu and his gang should let Fashola be. They are scared that President Buhari holds him in very high esteem and are dying to tarnish his image.

Fine gentleman. The civility yet firmness of his response is very remarkable. But who are these "pigs" hell bent on soiling BRF's towering reputation? Why the mad rush to pull him down? This is our albatross as a people -- heckling our best hands. Sad. Ride on BRF. We're right behind you.

Fashola is a fraud..that's a lie, am a programmer and i design websites i can tell you categorically that no website including maintainance cost 78million naira, even the company say na lewss than 10million naira fashola give them, so where is the remaining 68million??, How can fashola use state funds to upgrade is own personal website, that's a crime, he should be probed and he should face the wrath of the law.

The Jagajaga man (also known as Jagaban) go get hand for this to reduce BRF credibilty, all because BRF delivered way, way beyond what Jagajaga could ever do in many lifetime for Lagos.
BRF was progressive for the state.
Jagajaga cares only about imposing himself and cornering everything for himself.

You award 78 million for a website that show your pictures alone just like a gallery, and you say it allows you do your job. This is your personal website, are you not paid salary and security vote allowance, why did you not use it to do personal website, must it be from tax payers money that you where asked to put to judicial use. Yet there are roads that cost less you should have done. God will not fail to make all your lives very miserable. You mismanaged Lagos resources for 8 years with inflated projects just like this. Please do not head any government because you are a very bad manager.

Yes, no excuse for fraud. But wait a sec, all these self righteous fools throwing stones at bro, especially the one saying 'isokuso' is moronic. In a country of blind, the one eyed is king. When you see something good, please acknowledge. Most of us will not do 1/100 of what this fine action governor did. In my whole 40+years of Lagos living, aside from Japanese with Awo policy, never was there one that gave open development to any state like BRF. Great man equal to sitting in the White House. Great passion for work and wonderful body language.

Tinubu and Ambode (that man that looks like amala) are hell bent on discrediting BRF. Ambode what happened to the funds you diverted to Tinubu when u were working for BRF? Why did you resign? U were almost sacked because of the billions you diverted to Tinubu. So you both see this as pay back time to rubbish BRF. How about all the millions you were collecting from banks when you were the accountant general? Hypocrites you all are. You and Tinubu are the greatest thieves lag has ever known. What about the millions u lavish on your girlfriends? Buhari cannot be swayed by all this rubbish stunts u guys are pulling with BRF.

Mr Fashola I used to be a great fan of urs. But with this allegation and ur lame responsr uou have lost my respect. First let me state that it would have been a much wiser move if you had not responded to this allegation cos u know what"silence is indeed golden". For it is said"it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and removed all doubts". In other words if I was in doubt as to ur position with regards to the allegation, such doubts have now been cleared by your response. Mr Fashola please by your opening statement how can the upgrade of a website cost 12m naira? You must think us all fools if you think we will accept this explanation. Pls google is your friend, all you need to do is to search how much it would cost to upgrade and maintain a website and you will see what we come out for you and the cost in usd. I bet this your personal website will go down into Guinness book of records as the costliest by any government officials. Mr Fashola could you honestly look the Mayor of London in the face or the Governors of NY or California and tell them you approve a website for yourself at the cost of over $300, 000 of taxpayers money I bet they will laugh you off as a joker and a fraudster. I really dont blame you, the arrogance of our public officials. You lot think you know it all and better than the rest of us. You get away with such nonsense only in this clime. I am sure PMB go don tire for all of you. Mr Fashola I can assure you that you have not heard the last of this matter. Dont rest easy!

Don't be illiterate in your response, you don't need natural resources to make money as a nation of state! Human resources trumps natural resources as a case study, think this way Africa or even Nigeris vs. the UK as an example!! Why the hell would anybody in their right mind upgrade a basic website for N78M? Or even N12M? That's just madness, and it exudes thievery of the highest order! The mere fact that people care about how articulate his response is order than the fact that this guy looted the states cofers is beyond me!! This guy is a fraud and thief and should be seen as that! Simples! He even has the audacity of releasing a press statement trying to justify this, that's an insult on my intelligence! Dumb Nigerians!

Tinubu and his ilks should please allow Fashola to rest. Why all the envy just because they discovered that Fashola is assisting Buhari fashion out most of the recent policies being enunciated in Abuja today.Tinubu should understand that Fashola is a much better brand in Nigeria.Most villagers who voted ACN in 2011 in Ogun and Oyo States felt they were voting Fashola to turn their States to Lagos State. Tinubu and his use and dump philosophy. What the hell about a N78Million website compared to Tinubu's over 50billion loot from Lagos State.

There are too many ignorant people in this country. He has explained his own side and still some people are complaining.

good write up. did not expect less frm a SAN. but my question is this, as a man of integrity should u have awarded 78 millon for that sort of project or look for a uch more cost effective way to get the project done. there is really no pint in trying to defend what u knw within yourself is wrong. buhari has been in office less than a year and has scrapped quite a few meaningless avenues of wasting money. that i call been accountable for the wallet they put in ur care . good luck to u in the future all d same. u were not the worst of them all
