Reacting to former UK Prime Minister, David Cameron's comment that Nigeria is a fantastically corrupt country, Fashola said;
"I
think that the former Prime minister was speaking tongue in cheek
because if this country places host to the reception of stolen
properties, then there is a moral issue, very strong moral issue and if I
remember my criminal law, its is as much as an offence to receive
stolen property as to actually stealing and I think that all of those
who make those kind of comments and become havens for proceeds of
corruption need to do a rethink. The President has said clearly that he
is not interested in an apology, he is interested in having the money
back. If you have something that is stolen, give it back "he said
