The Ondo state government under the leadership of governor Oluwarotimi Akereddolu has been accused of fraud.

 

This was contained in a statement titled: WHO IS THE GOVERNOR OF ONDO STATE? widely broadcasted on social media, the untraced statement was written by a man simply identified by Esquire, Tolu Babaleye.

 

Babaleye who accused the government of fraud added that the recently discovered 4.3 billion naira by the state House of Assembly has been transferred to the internally generated revenue account in the state.

 

He further said the discovery of the money didn’t see the light of the day in Ondo state.

WHO IS THE GOVERNOR OF ONDO STATE?

 

1. It is no longer news that a secret account in which 4.3BN was detected in Ondo State.

 

2. The 4.3B was transferred to Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) account. This is a big fraud because the money is not an IGR.

 

3. Out of the money, 35% (not 10%) was spent to pay Consultancy fees. Who is the consultant? Where is the MOU signed between the consultant and the Ondo State Government? This is mother of all frauds.

 

4. The "discovery" of the money was not brought to the knowledge of State Excos, House of Assembly and above all, the good people of Ondo State. This is a serious fraud.

 

5. The entire money was butchered and transferred in tranches to Ondo State Expenditure Accounts spread across many banks and was spent on inanities. This is the father of all frauds.

 

6. The son of the Governor came online to justify the fraud. I have continued to wonder how come the Governor's son knows so much about the affairs of Ondo State.

 

7. A meeting was held yesterday at Akure where it was decided that the House of Assembly should halt the entire probe and make it a family affairl.

 

8. The House of Assembly was forced to issue a statement to modify its earlier Statement and make the whole issue a family affair.

 

9. The said Akure meeting also decided to storm the House of Assembly, beat and injure any anyone at sight, invite the police, seal up the Assembly and bring the probe to an abrupt end. The said meeting was coordinated by their State Party Chairman.

 

10. Where is the Commissioner of Finance who is in position to address all these issues? Why is the son of the Governor addressing the whole of Ondo State? Whom did we vote as the Governor of Ondo State? Is it Rotimi Akeredolu, his son(Babajide) or his wife(Betty).

 

11. The money is 12.6BN and not 4.3BN when you add interest element. The question should be where is our 12.6BN?

 

I wish to call on the members of House of Assembly to remain resolute and unwavering in pursuing the good of Ondo State and its good people. The house will make history if resolute and mar history if it wavers.

 

Let the Questions and Engagement continue...
