The Accord Party governorship candidate in Oyo State, Alhaji Rashidi Ladoja, has chided the administration of State Governor Abiola Ajimobi over the management of the state finances.
In a statement on Sunday by the Director, Ladoja 2015 Campaign Organisation, Akanmu Adeyanju, Ladoja said the state had witnessed dwindling economic fortunes in the last three years because of the present administration’s lack of depth and vision to move the state forward.
He said, “The present All Progressives Congress-led government in Oyo State cannot do better than what we have witnessed within the last three years and 10 months as it lacks the depth and the vision to move the state forward.
“The Ajimobi government could not manage the resources of the state effectively as most of them are spent on frivolous projects that have no bearing on the welfare of the people. As a matter of fact, most of the projects are abandoned after spending billions of naira on them.”
While substantiating his claims, the former state governor said despite the promises and assurances by Ajimobi that his government would complete all the projects he embarked on, most of the projects remained abandoned, making reference to the state proposed Technical University and model schools.
“Six model schools that were started could not move from the foundation level after demolishing existing schools. The Government House Banquet Hall that was demolished with over N800m and the abandoned Technical University projects are examples of works that are abandoned.
“There is also the abandoned five star hotel, Ogbomoso, Oyo-Iseyin road and the Saki roads that are now abandoned.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
