I Never Promised to Fix Power in Six Months – Fashola

The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has denied saying that the present administration will fix power in Nigeria within six months.

He made the denial when he featured as a guest on Channels TV’s ‘Politics Today’ on Monday night.

Fashola told the interviewer that the statement attributed to him was a lie which he merely allowed to run.

The former Minister of Power said: “One of the things that was said about me was that I said we will electrify Nigeria in six months. It is a lie that I allowed to run until the day I asked my media men to play the tape back.

“And since then, that lie has gone. Don’t say things that I didn’t say.”
