Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the governor of Lagos State, recently returned from a lavish celebration in Grenada, where he attended the 50th birthday of businesswoman, Aisha Achimugu.
The governor, who left Lagos amid uncertainties about his whereabouts, partied on the Caribbean Island for several days, alternating between Calivigny Island and Silversand Grenada, according Premium Times.
The extravagant event, hosted by Achimugu, included chartered jets for guests, opulent parties with international musicians, and an estimated cost in billions of naira.
Sanwo-Olu’s absence during this period has raised questions about the use of public funds and his responsiveness to the challenges faced by Lagosians.
