Why APC Can’t Be Ashamed Of Aregbesola – Lai Mohammed by midolian(m): 11:00am On Aug 20, 2015 |
Against the background of the stretching arrears of salaries owed public workers in Osun State, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the spokesman of the All Progressives Congress, APC , during an interactive session with the Editorial Board of Vanguard gave reasons why the state has found itself in dire straits asserting that the party cannot in any way be ashamed of the governor , Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, or his record of performance. Excerpts: Osun State is probably the most cosmopolitan state in the whole of Nigeria. We are very proud of our governor, Rauf Aregbesola and we stand by him because he is one of the most proactive governors, he is one governor that has taken the reason for governance very seriously. What happened in Osun State is as follows: Up to 2013 December, the average that was distributed between the three tiers of the federation was about N800 billion a month but as of May last year, N338 billion was what was distributed, so what you have is that most states have suffered more than 50 per cent decline in revenue accruing to them from the federation account. Osun State is not just the most cosmopolitan, it has the highest number of cities in the whole of country, Ilesha, Oshogbo, Ikirun, Ife and many more. So, by the time this decline came, Aregbesola had embarked on a lot of pro people programmes that had to be sustained and maintained such as the one meal a day programme for school children, the O-YES programme that employed so many people and kept crime at the lowest level in the whole of the country. He had embarked on social welfare for the very elderly, school expansion and because of the introduction of the one meal a day programme, school enrolment had exploded. So, the fact that a state cannot pay salaries does not mean the governor has been guilty of embelzement or misappropriation of funds, after all, there are some states that take derivation from oil that are still owing. I will be ashamed of the governor if for instance I know for a fact that he took the money belonging to the state, misappropriated it or spent it unwisely or embezzeled. So far, nobody has come out to accuse Aregbesola of misappropriation of funds or if even being insensitive to the plight of the people. But if a man was taking about N3.6 billion a month but the last time he took I think he got about N400 million. Abandoning of projects When he came in, he also inherited a lot of debts for which banks were also deducting, so, there is no way that we in APC can be ashamed of him because we know what is happening. What of Oyo State? It is what is happening in Osun State that is happening in Oyo State also. It is either you say I am going to retrench and send people packing or I am going to abandon my projects. If you had like Oyo been taking more than N4.2 billion and now they are taking less than N2 billion, how are you going to make up for the shortfall and these are states where internally generated revenue are almost non existence. Well, I am happy that the Federal Government has come out now with a bailout package for all the states. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/08/why-apc-cant-be-ashamed-of-aregbesola-lai-mohammed/ 9 Likes 1 Share |

Pro people programmes with large kickbacks and money laundering opportunities!! He built schools and 60% of the core teaching staff are Corp members(who are also owed) Confirmed! Helicopters - for aerial security but it's being used by the Governor and immediate family member or top members of APC Well it's people project as the state house of assembly members are in his pocket and they represent the people and they found no guile of corruption.

Lai Mohammed ahs benefiited from the looting of Osun state by Aregbesola.This was exposed by Yinka Odumakin on his interview by the punch Newspapers last sunday Go to the state today, every project, for which Aregbesola has used to put us in debt burden that our grandchildren will continue to pay, is not on the ground. Go to the airport where he spent billions of naira, it is full of waste; only the fence that you will find there which was done by Alhaji Lai Mohammed’s company. He took a loan of N11.5bn from the Islamic Bank, which he said was interest free. When he was taking the loan, he said he was going to build 27 schools with the money – 23 secondary schools, two elementary schools and two middle schools. The 23 secondary schools he said he was going to build at N450m each; the two elementary schools at N150m each; the two middle schools at N150m each. He collected the money, telling us it was interest free, but we have obtained documents that show that by 2020 Osun is going to pay N25bn on the N11.5bn. And of those 27 schools, only two were built. We have asked the EFCC to look at this. He said he launched Opon Imo (tablet for public schools’ pupils), with N8.3bn spent on it, go to Osun today and show me one Opon Imo that is working. In fact, they call it Opon Eemo now. https://www.nairaland.com/2529109/aregbesola-damaged-osuns-economy-odumakin 37 Likes 5 Shares |

Although I am not a fan of Aregbesola on this, but the truth is that the governor put himself in this mess by embarking on too many white elephant projects. However, we should also not rule out how the clueless one GEJ messed up the economy with his corrupt practices along with his wailing wailers association PDP who refused to respect and listen to the concerns raised by many Nigerians about saving for the raining days rather than looting the common wealth of the country !!! 1 Like |
