The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) in Oyo State has disclosed that Governor Seyi Makinde will soon set to a
commission to probe his predecessor; Abiola Ajimobi-led All Progressives
Congress (APC) government.
PDP’s Publicity Secretary in Oyo
State, Engineer Akeem Olatunji, made the disclosure in a statement on
Wednesday.
He said this in reaction to APC’s
allegation that Makinde had received the N7.9billion bailout funds.
The spokesman accused the APC of
seeking to distract the new government in the state through unwarranted claims.
According to the PDP, comments by
the APC on the said bailout fund only show that the opposition party was
saddened that its government did not get the opportunity to mismanage the
bailout fund.
The statement further read: “We
are all witnesses to how the immediate past APC government mismanaged the
fortunes of the state and failed to fulfil its promises to the Judges, the
Judiciary and the entire people of the state during its eight year rule.
“We cannot also forget in a hurry
how the APC government put the future of thousands of our children who are
students in LAUTECH in peril through unwarranted strikes and lack of funding.
“Rather than gallivant about on
the streets proffering unwanted advice to the government of Engineer Seyi
Makinde, the APC should bury its head in shame for the unmitigated
mismanagement its government foisted on the people of Oyo State in the last
eight years.
“Let us restate here that the
government of Engineer Seyi Makinde has sold itself to probity and
accountability. It is not a decision forced on us by anyone. And in that
regard, every kobo that accrues to the state will be judiciously used.
“We believe that some members of
the APC are already getting jittery on realising that the PDP government is
about to establish an anti-corruption commission in the state. It is clear that
the hint of the incoming anti-corruption agency is making some persons in that party
to commit unforced errors.”
