National Publicity Secretary of the Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Yinka Odumakin, has submitted documents of corruption allegations against Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.<\/p>\n
Odumakin is an indigene of Osun State.<\/p>\n
In the petition submitted on behalf of a group, Osun Stakeholders, titled, \u201cPetition against Governor Rauf Aregbesola for financial recklessness, corruption, money laundering and fraudulent application of Osun State\u2019s resources,\u201d Odumakin alleged that Aregbesola had sunk the state into abject poverty.<\/p>\n
The group said a forensic audit of the Osun State government accounts had become necessary as the state was already bankrupt and had become the poorest state in Nigeria.<\/p>\n
The petition said Osun \u201cis littered with abandoned projects even though loans were secured by this administration to execute them. Today, our dear state has become the embodiment of lack, poverty, purposelessness, wickedness and insensitivity of political leaders of the highest order in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n
It stated that families could no longer survive and the people of the state now looked up to the EFCC to ensure that the state\u2019s funds were recovered.<\/p>\n
The petition lamented that Osun State had become an object of scorn and a symbol of poverty in the nation because of Aregbesola\u2019s recklessness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
