Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has vehemently denied allegations that he spent over N400 million on foreign trips. Dismissing the claims as false, the governor’s spokesperson, Sulaiman Bala Idris, clarified that the misinformation originated from a deliberate misinterpretation of budget data on the official website of Zamfara State government. The alleged spending was wrongly attributed to Governor Lawal, with the actual expenses falling under the administration of Governor Bello Matawalle. Idris emphasized the commitment of Governor Lawal’s government to transparency and accountability, asserting that the published budget performance report on the official website provides a breakdown of spending on trips and other activities. Governor Lawal has undertaken only three official foreign trips since assuming office, according to the statement.
