Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbsola has said that since the beginning of his administration, the state has acquired only N204 billion from the Federation Accounts and Internally Generated Revenue.
Aregbesola said this while reacting to claims by a former Head of Service in the state, Mr. Segun Akinwusi that the state got N317bn in four years.
In a statement signed by the governor’s media aide, Mr. Semiu Okanlawon, Aregbesola said “Segun Akinwusi is inconsistent and that is highly nauseating considering the fact that he rose to become the Head of Service of Osun State.
“In May, he raised a false alarm that Aregbesola should account for N846bn he had collected as allocation in the last four years.
“The same Akinwusi said Aregbesola had collected N317bn in four years. Which one does he want Nigerians to believe?
“The facts that are verifiable state that Osun got from the Federation Account N177bn and when you add the unprecedented about N27bn IGR in the same period to that, you get the N204bn.”
