Gov Ambode’s Exclusive: “I have no hands in Fashola’s Travail ” + Details of How Fashola mismanaged #1 trillion + Fashola runs helter skelter for intervention
This is not the best of Season for former Governor of Lagos State, Babatunde Fashola as he strived hard to unhook himself from webs of corruption levied against him. Information available to Sahara Weekly alleged that the powers that be have nailed him with series of petitions. We learnt that the dossier was sent to the no nonsense President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari and strangely their courier is the first Lady, Aisha Buhari.
Insiders squealed to us that the dossier explained how the Fashola led administration allegedly squandered close to N1 trillion of the tax payers money. The source revealed to us that it will take a miracle for Fashola to get any appointment under the Buhari’s administration because of the alleged role played by Aisha in facilitating the gladiators ambition in convincing the president of how unclean the SAN was.
It would be recalled the Civil Society Network Against Corruption, a coalition of anti-corruption organisations in Nigeria, has petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over the “questionable expenditures” of the administration of Babatunde Fashola, the immediate past governor of Lagos State.
In a petition dated August 10 and addressed to the EFCC Chairman, the group called for the probe of the controversial N78 million spent on the personal website of Mr. Fashola
There was outrage last weekend after analytic firm, BudgIT, revealed that Mr. Fashola approved, before he left office, N78.3 million from the state’s treasury for an upgrade of his personal website.
The contract for the refurbishment of the website was awarded to Info Access Plus Limited by the office of the Chief of Staff to the former governor.
The company, however, denied receiving the amount, insisting that it was paid N10 million.
Other ‘questionable expenditures’
In addition to the amount purportedly spent on the website upgrade, CSNAC also urged the anti-graft agency to probe the N1.2 billion spent on the construction of pedestrian bridges along Eti-Osa – Lekki – Epe expressway “which did not specify the number of bridges.”
Other areas of possible probe include the N17 million awarded for the provision of wall signage in three magistrate courts; N3.46 billion spent for the construction of a beach resort in Ilase; and N61 million disbursed for a Range Rover SUV and two Toyota Hilux trucks as the official vehicle of Chief Judge of State.
The group also want the EFCC to probe Mr. Fashola’s spending of N85 million for the repair and replacement of street signs; N330 million spent on the development of the residence of Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire, the immediate past deputy governor; and N94 million spent on printer consumables.
CSNAC petition came following a similar outcry by another anti-corruption group, the Coalition Against Corrupt Leaders.
Debo Adeniran, CACOL’s Executive Director, had stated in an interview recently that his organisation’s independent investigation showed that the 1.36 kilometre Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge cost N6 billion, and not the N25 billion stated by Mr. Fashola’s administration.
Mr. Adeniran also stated that several petitions written to the EFCC to probe the various projects in the state in the face of the more than N500 billion debt left by Mr. Fashola’s government was ignored.
Another organisation, the Socio-Economic Rights Accountability Project, had also alleged that the state refused to disclose details of the US$200 million World Bank education fund during Mr. Fashola’s tenure.
“CSNAC is hereby requesting that these allegations against the former governor of Lagos State be thoroughly investigated and the falsity or verity proven,” said Olanrewaju Suraju, Chairman, CSNAC.
“We would like to believe that this petition would be given utmost attention as speculations in the media and among the general public is that members of the governing party currently enjoy special consideration and therefore not investigated by the anti-corruption agencies.
“This perception, if allowed to fester, will be detrimental and dangerous to the spirit of the new wave in fight against corruption led by the current administration.
Meanwhile in an exclusive chat with Sahara Weekly on Monday, August 17, 2015 the amiable governor of Lagos state, Akinwunmi Ambode has debunked the widespread rumour that he was behind the campaign of calumny against the person of Babatunde Fashola. In a chat with us through his spokesperson, Habib Aruna, he labelled the allegations mere rumour.
“ I can tell you categorically that the governor has not and cannot be involved in such petty things. And for the record the governor is not in any way involved or responsible for the media attacks on the former governor. Its a figment of the imagination of those spreading the rumour”

Heaven’s Script Unfolds: Prophet Kingsley Aitafo’s 2025 Prophecy on Pope Francis Fulfilled
The world mourns Pope Francis, while a prophetic message echoes with divine accuracy.
Vatican City | April 21, 2025 — In a moment that has shaken the global Catholic community and resonated through spiritual circles worldwide, Pope Francis passed away peacefully on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88, in his Vatican residence at Casa Santa Marta.
At 9:45 AM, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, Camerlengo of the Apostolic Chamber, made the somber announcement from the Holy See:
“Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis… At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father…”
But even amid the mourning, another narrative is making headlines — that of divine foresight.
Earlier this year, Nigerian cleric, Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, released a chilling prophecy regarding a “major exit in the Vatican,” naming Pope Francis as the focus of his revelation. Delivered in a January 2025 broadcast, the prophetic message warned of an impending transition in the Catholic Church’s highest office, citing spiritual visions of the Pontiff’s declining health and heavenly summons.
Today, that prophecy has come to pass.
A Voice Crying in the Spiritual Wilderness
Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, known for his bold prophetic utterances and spiritual insights, stated in his January message:
“Pray for the Vatican. I see a great change coming. The one seated shall be taken, and it shall mark a new chapter for the Church.”
While many took the message with caution, some believers rallied in prayer. As the months unfolded, Pope Francis’ health took a notable decline. He was admitted to Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic Hospital on February 14, 2025, for complications from bronchitis. Doctors later diagnosed him with bilateral pneumonia on February 18.
Despite returning to Casa Santa Marta after 38 days of hospitalization to continue recovery, the Holy Father never regained full strength.
The End of an Era
Pope Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, led the Catholic Church with humility, inclusiveness, and fervent compassion, championing the rights of the poor and marginalized. His papacy was marked by simplicity, progressive reforms, and a call to return to the Gospel’s core values.
As millions grieve, many within the prophetic community are pointing to Aitafo’s message as a profound sign of divine communication and the importance of spiritual sensitivity in turbulent times.
A Call to Spiritual Reflection
Prophet Kingsley, in a statement released hours after the Pope’s death, expressed his condolences while reaffirming the spiritual significance of the moment:
“This was not a wish — it was a word from the Spirit. Let the world understand: when God speaks, it is not to scare, but to prepare. Let us pray for the Church and its future.”
As the Vatican begins its formal mourning and preparations for the conclave, many eyes are now turned toward the heavens — and toward those anointed to see what lies ahead.,
