All Progressives Congress, APC,
in Ogun State has declared that the state’s governor-elect, Dapo Abiodun will
revoke all new contracts awarded by the administration of Governor Ibikunle
Amosun between March and May 28 this year.
The APC also vowed to reverse all
appointments and installation of traditional rulers as well as review of
employments of new entrants into the state’s workforce done by Amosun’s
administration after the March 9 governorship election which gave the victory.
This was contained in a statement
issued yesterday in Abeokuta, the state capital, by the Publicity Secretary of
the Caretaker Committee of All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state,
Ambassador Tunde Oladunjoye
He spoke against the background
of the rumours that Amosun was planning to approach the World Bank for a US
$350 Million in less than three weeks to the expiration of his administration.
Oladunjoye said the party had
earlier warned financial institutions across the country against honouring any
loans, overdrafts and other financial instruments’ request from the outgoing
government of Ibikunle Amosun.
He noted that the outgoing
Amosun-led administration had also approved the employment of about 500 fresh
workers into the state’s workforce from among those who sat and passed the
Administrative Staff College of Nigeria (ASCON) examination.
Oladunjoye accused Amosun of
making “last-minute appointments and awarded contracts without due
consideration to the incoming administration of Prince Dapo Abiodun
notwithstanding APC’s earlier warning.
“It is morally unacceptable that
a Governor with less than one month to the expiration of his term in office
will make mass appointments and promotions, thereby committing the incoming
administration to unsustainable financial commitments and obligations.
“We hereby alert the general
public and those to whom it may concern that ALL appointments, installation of
traditional rulers, contracts, commitments and obligations entered into during
the transition period after the elections will be reviewed and may not be
binding on the new administration.”
