The Osun Mastermind says it has concluded plans to drag the Osun State Government before the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC and Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Offences Commission, ICPC over the N100b infrastructural development funds.
The group also tasked the federal government to direct relevant agencies to commence a thorough probe of recent financial interventions given to states to ensure that such interventions reach the intended beneficiaries. The Executive Director, TOM, Prof. Wasiu Oyedokun-Alli, who made the call during a press conference on Monday in Osogbo, expressed concern that Osun State may return to her days of excessive borrowing and financial recklessness.
He said the Osun Mastermind will receive the petition after it has been submitted and received by the EFCC at the close of business on Monday. Oyedokun-Alli added that plans by the government to construct flyover bridges would amount to a waste of resources in a dwindling economy. He advised that the funds for flyover bridges be used for rapid infrastructural development across local government areas and the opening up of roads in the state.
