“Let me also join you to emphasize that what was published by ‘Sahara Liar’ has nothing to do with me.
“I said it two weeks ago when the publication was out about the existence of De kingrun, I have made my position clear on that.
“The fact remains that De-kingrun has no relationship with the Lagos state House of Assembly and I am challenging ‘SaharaLiars and Failures’ to publish if there is any.
“At least, they have alleged and they must be able to prove by giving out the name of such contracts, the amount, the location, the date and the contractual agreement.
“So, with this, the public would be convinced that truly such allegation exists.
“ As we speak, I am saying emphatically that there is no relationship between De kingrun and Lagos State House of Assembly.
“So, Sahara Liars and failure you can prove me wrong” Obasa reiterated.
The Clerk of the House, Mr. Azeez Sanni,while bringing the house up to speed on the matter,stated that the house did not in anyway award any contract to the mentioned companies in the report published by the media outfit.
“Mr Speaker! Let me seek your indulgence to make announcement of the publication on Sahara Reporters in which some comments were made regarding the House.
“As the Clerk of the House and Head of Administration, I want to say categorically to the public that this house has not had any business dealings with the mentioned companies” Azeez stated.
