The Lagos State Government has dismissed reports claiming that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has been asked to resign on health grounds, describing the story as false and misleading.
The denial was contained in a statement issued on Monday by the Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Publicity, Gboyega Akosile.
The government faulted a report published by an online platform, insisting that it had no basis in fact.
The statement read in part,” We have noted with concern a false report by … alleging that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has been ‘ordered to resign on health grounds’ with the Deputy Governor set to take over.
