The PDP in Osun has demanded detailed account of how the state’s allocation and other funds collected by the Rauf Aregbesola administration since its onset in 2010.

The party, in a statement issued by its director of Media and Publicity, Prince Diran Odeyemi, said the demand was upon disclosure that projects hitherto claimed by the administration have now been proved to be projects either funded by the Federal Government or with local governments allocations.

The party said it welcomed the confession by government spokesperson, Sunday Akere that “the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan through UBEC, built all elementary and middle schools in the state, while those roads executed at local government are paid for by all council areas in the state”.

The party thus queried: “With the facts at our disposal, Ogbeni Aregbesola has received over N300 billion from federation account since he took over as the governor of the state.

“All elementary and middle schools in Osun state are built by UBEC, all High Schools were constructed with SUKUK bond, Osogbo/Ila Odo road originally designed and partly executed by a PDP government, is being funded by Bank of Infrastructure, Abuja, another establishment of FG so where is the state allocation”

“Both Aiyegbaju and Aje markets are being funded by private organisations, while Ring Road in Osogbo and Gbongan Road are being financed by contractors themselves. We are left with no option, as indigenes to demand for account of what Aregbesola has earned”
