The Coalition Against Corrupt Leaders (CACOL) says its position on Governor Fashola’s bad leadership in Lagos State has been vindicated by the statement of the former Lagos State commissioner for Environment, Dr Muiz Banire.

Reacting to Banire’s statement, the Executive Chairman of CACOL, Comrade Debo Adeniran, said it is clear to all and sundry that Governor Babatunde Fashola regime’s assessment has been over bloated in the media.
