The Edo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has described the performance of the administration of Governor Adams Oshiomhole as a waste.

State Chairman of the party, Chief Dan Orbih, who spoke in Benin during a press briefing on Oshiomhole’s seven years in office, accused the state government of “siphoning money” in the name of security votes and other unnecessary projects.

He said, “You cannot compare what this governor is doing with security funds with any other government anywhere in Nigeria.

“Every month, he takes N500 million to N700 million‎ of tax payers’ money, in his own words, ‘to address urgent security challenges’.

“But you will agree with me that Edo State, like he (governor) used to say, ‘is safe.’ We do not have Boko Haram here, so we do not really know what he is doing with that amount.‎

“If this money is returned to the coffers of government, I can assure you that the governor will be in a position to fix the roads that are in very bad condition.”

‎He alleged that records available to the party revealed that while the sum of “N928 billion” accrued to the state in the past seven years “only N268 billion” could be accounted for,” through project execution and remuneration of Edo civil servants.

Orbih also alleged plans by the governor to temporarily recruit thousands of youths, as campaign moves for next year’s governorship election.

“I call on the Governor to take full responsibility for his failure in government,” he added.

Osho-thief

We just can't wait for this man to leave office, he's done enough damage already. I can't wait for the EFCC to get hold of him. In his first tenure, he came in as a saint, but after that, nothing. I can't see much difference between him and the former thief.
