A former Deputy Governor of Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore, says it will take 22 years to clear the debts incurred by the government of Governor Rauf Aregbesola.

Omisore said this in Abuja on Monday shortly after receiving his Certificate of Return from the Social Democratic Party.
The governorship candidate of the SDP said about half of Osun State’s allocation from the Federation Account went to servicing accumulated debts.

He said this had led to the inability of the state to pay salaries.

He said this had led to the inability of the state to pay salaries.

Omisore added, “The state is deplorable. It has no infrastructure, health services; salaries are being owed and we are the most indebted state in this country. Our ISPO, that is, our debit from FAAC, is signed till 2040. That is 25 years from 2015.
“So, it is a peculiar situation and a task that cannot be given to a youth corps member or a mere politician. It is not a joke.”

When asked how he would increase the revenue of the state, Omisore said there was a need to effectively exploit the agric sector.

The ex-lawmaker said policies which promoted wealth creation and investment would be implemented and once this happened, wealth would return to the state.

Omisore said the candidates of the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party were novices who were being foisted on the state by godfathers.

He added, “Nigeria has evolved to voting people with experience, with qualifications who have done it before. It is not just about running for office. It is not about having a godfather who will sponsor you and be making money from Osun State through the governor.”

kettle calling pot black.as if if voting in he would do a better job.omisore should just not waste his money.Na third place sure for am..we all know d contenders from d pretenders..he is d latter

Go siddon
22years ke?

U also have nothing to offer the pple of Osun

This is not good

Hmmm

Hehe. I think the good people of Osun should not bother to vote this man. He has not even won, but it already giving excuse of his future failure.

Very similar to Jose Mourinho who always complains before the start of any season.

Can APC win Osun Governorship Election?
It's gonna be hard.
We are seeing things!
May the best candidate win.

Hmm

Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say.

@ least he's honest wit such time frame....wat of dose dat promised 2 fix d So called jonathans mess in 3-6 months

Story for the Gods..

Kuku sell the state to Pakistan or Iran.

Then no need to vote you in sir. We will vote for who can fix it in two years. You are actually telling us if we vote you in as the governor, you will just be occupying space in the government house for four years. Truth is aregbesola messed up big time but he did some projects although some are substandard(like the osogbo-ikirun road) the road is already giving up to the little showers of rain(I drove on that road for two weeks this month). All a new governor needs to do when you take office is collect Federal allocation, pay salaries, use whatever is left to do some mini projects and eradicate poverty from that state. Also work on how to boost osun IGR. If salaries are not paid in that state, no IGR cos major IGR comes from tax from salaries.

We know and make him account for all the bailouts gotten so far

Giving excuses for his failure in advance

Governance requires a very high mental capacity. That's where people like Fashola excelled and somebody like aregbe failed.

All ready letting Osun people know he is not the messiah

This one has failed already. If it is going to take u 22 years to fix the mess why can't you allow someone that can fix it within 2years. And this one says he wants to be governor.

This one never even enter, he don dey give excuse.

You will get your votes in Ife alone.

The real contenders are the APC and PDP candidates.

Davido has a serious role to play in this, I am afraid, his influence will move mountains.

Don't expect anything good from this man! 22years are you kidding me Nigeria we are doomed

Then no need of u bothering coming into power.....as uv olredy showcas ur failure oga omi

It means that Osun people should not expect anything from him if he won. This one that he was making excuses in advance.

Then u have no biz ib govt house. World war ii ddnt evn last 10yrs. Go bk to whrever u crawled out from.

The debt fear shake Omisore.
Every mess can be solved in time with right minds

Buhari's brother,please don't vote for him because he has been infected with APC's excuses.

This one just want to lot the state treasury ASAP....that is his mission,this one go take osun state backwards by twenty two years.
