Governor Adeleke Spent N2bn On Entertainment Spree in 3 Months – Remi Omowaiye

Former Osun State Commissioner for Works and Transportation, Remi Omowaiye, alleges that Governor Ademola Adeleke spent N2 billion on entertainment within three months.

The former commissioner wondered why Adeleke, despite hailing from a wealthy family, was allegedly mismanaging the state’s resources.

He expressed disappointment in Adeleke’s one-year tenure, describing it as uneventful.

He stated that the former administration led by Gboyega Oyetola diligently worked to advance the state, noting that upon his handover, Osun had achieved recognition as one of the leading states in healthcare indices in Nigeria.

According to him, “Instead, in three months he spent N2bn naira on entertainment at the governor’s office, while neighboring Kwara State has used N88m for nine months. This is a man who claims to be from a rich family. So, if you are from a rich family, why are you mismanaging our resources? Look at the health indices, when Oyetola came in, Osun used to have the highest maternal death rate.

“But when we were leaving, Osun had become one of the best states in terms of health care indices in Nigeria. This is because we painstakingly built and revitalized 332 health centers in the state.

“Not only that, we renovated and also provided basic equipment needed for those primary health care centers according to World Health Organisation standards.

“We also ensured that those primary health care centers were funded through basic provisions fund and the people who delivered at the primary health care centers increased annually from over 20,000 to over 50,000.

“In terms of infrastructure, we did a lot of roads and what we did was to conduct a citizen needs assessment. We didn’t just wake up and say we wanted to do something.”
