A Lot Of Osun Money Is Taken To Somewhere in  Lagos – Adeleke Reveals

The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State, Ademola Adeleke on Monday claimed that a lot of the state money is taken to Lagos.
Adeleke said that is the reason why the state government led by Gboyega Oyetola is finding it difficult to pay salaries and pensions.

The governor-elect promised to block the state funds from being taken to Lagos when he takes over as governor of Osun State.

Adeleke stated this during an interview on Channels TV on Monday.

Recall that Adeleke defeated the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Oyetola on Saturday.

The PDP candidate while speaking during the interview said, “I said it before that paying salary is not an achievement; if people work, you must pay them. What you bring to the table to improve the economy, the IGR is what you can call achievements. When I was debating with Governor Oyetola, the outgoing governor, I said paying a salary is not an achievement; have you improved the economy?

“What I will do is that I will work with pensioners, retirees; sit together with them and have a meeting. Okay, this is the money they are owing you and everything. Why they cannot pay you is that a lot of our money is going outside; what I mean is that a lot of our money is taken to Lagos or somewhere. So I will block those leakages.”
