One of the most sensitive ministries in the government of Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola of Lagos State is that of the Environment.
So, it goes without saying that the commissioner in-charge of the ministry has a lot in his hands to ensure the state maintains its professed mega-city status.
But the information reaching yemojanews is that the Commissioner in-charge of the Environment Ministry in the state, Mr. Tunji Bello has been absent from his duty post for about three months now.
Investigations revealed that there is palpable fear amongst the workers in the ministry and other parastatals under the environment ministry in the state as nobody knows the whereabouts of the journalist-turned politician.
Informants disclosed that the commissioner left his seat few months back and nobody knows where he is at the moment, but certainly, a source insisted, he is not in the country.
“He has been out of work for about three months now. Some people said he is sick, and that he went for a medical check up abroad, while others said he went on vacation, nobody is sure of what really happened,” said a worker in the ministry.
Another theory being worked on is that the commissioner went on a `well deserved leave' having worked for many years without vacation.
We were however, reliably informed that the absence of the commissioner has stalled many projects in the ministry and workers cannot help, but discuss the matter amongst themselves in whispers.
