Sharafadeen Alli Critiques Makinde's Management of Oyo Projects
The Senator Sharafadeen Alli Campaign Organisation has criticized Governor Seyi Makinde for his handling of streetlight projects in Oyo State, questioning his engineering credentials. They highlighted that despite Makinde's claim of studying electrical engineering, over N250 billion has been spent on streetlights powered by diesel generators, which are costly and environmentally harmful.
The organization, led by Bisi Oladele, condemned the administration's wasteful practices and poor planning, noting that modern cities are moving towards solar-powered systems. They also pointed out that the renovated Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan failed to secure CAF approval for Shooting Stars Sports Club to host international matches, despite over N5 billion being spent on renovations.
This situation has forced the club to seek alternative venues, raising concerns about the competence and priorities of Makinde's administration.
