Our attention has been drawn to a recent news article that enjoyed wide
coverage in the media alleging that my principal, Mr. Yemi Idowu, a real
estate investor and entrepreneur is the beneficiary of a Lagos State
contract to supply buses.
We would like to use this medium to deny this news article including the
information it has presented as untrue and unsubstantiated. Mr. Idowu is
in no way involved in the Lagos State bus reform and he has not been
invited to participate in the reform.
It is unfortunate that many media sources have drawn resources from this
unfounded allegation by which the public is being fed unverified
information. A simple confirmation from the correct sources would have
confirmed the truth or otherwise of this information.
During this period of unbridled fabrication of fake news, we will appeal
and advise any media organisation which has news leads about Mr. Idowu
to kindly confirm the facts with us before going to press with the
information.
Please accept assurances of my highest regards.
