Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola’s Twitter account has been verified.

on the micro-blogging site to receive the blue verification stamp. The
Ekiti State Government’s Twitter account was however verified a few
months ago.
Twitter started verifying Nigerian-owned
Twitter accounts this year, starting with celebrities including actress
Genevieve Nnaji, model Oluchi Orlandi, singers Nneka and Asa, and
footballer Osaze Odemwinge.
