Governor Adeleke In Fresh Trouble For Allegedly Witholding N2B Osun Palliative Money

The All Progressives Congress (APC), Osun State, has claimed that Governor Ademola Adeleke is sabotaging the administration of President Bola Tinubu by hoarding the N2 billion intervention fund on removal of fuel subsidy.

The chairman of the party, Tajudeen Lawal stated  this on Sunday.

He berated the Osun governor for undermining the efforts and programmes of the federal government by showing lack of commitment to the welfare of the citizens.

He said: “It was unthinkable and unreasonable for any of the federating units to hoard the Federal Government N2 billion fuel subsidy removal palliative after two months of receiving the fund.

“what justification does Osun government has to flagrantly deny the people access to the Federal Government fund meant for the specific purpose?Is Governor Adeleke waiting for the people to die before he releases the N2 billion Federal Government fuel subsidy removal palliative?”

However, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) through its chairman, Sunday Bisi berated APC over its claim, saying, “We are not a corrupt government like yours.”

He said: “Ademola Adeleke is a due process leader who cherishes accountability and transparency in all governmental processes. Procurement order has been placed for palliative materials and they will soon arrive.

“The palliative plan by Governor Adeleke is very comprehensive and is designed to be sufficient enough to reach the mass of our people. Only people voted out for thieving records will think the Governor from a billionaire background will divert a palliative fund that is publicly declared.”
