The PDP stated that a public revolt will greet any favourable response to the request by the Governor Rauf Aregbesola administration.
It would be recalled that a statement issued by Barrister Kunle Oyatomi, the Director of Publicity, Research and Strategy, of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC), in the state, said the initial bailout granted the state was insufficient.
In a counter-statement issued in Osogbo by Osun PDP Director of Media and Strategy, Prince Diran Odeyemi, the opposition party recalled that the first bailout of N35 billion the government got never complied with the basic requirements of accessing such funds.
“In the first instance, the bailout was given to Aregbesola without a resolution of State Executive Council since the governor has refused to form his cabinet 18 months after returning for another term.”
“Also, the state House of Assembly never approved the bailout. Our sole administrator single handedly took the money and spent it anyhow. Has there been a probe of how the N35billion bailout he received was spent, No,” the PDP statement read.
