Osun APC Chairmen Deny Illegal Fund Disbursement in Local Governments Amid State Assembly Accusations

The All Progressives Congress (APC) chairmen in Osun State have refuted allegations of illegal fund disbursement in local governments, claiming the funds were approved for salaries. The Osun State House of Assembly is accused of colluding with former Governor Adegboyega Oyetola in the alleged unauthorized disbursement.

The APC chairmen, led by Adewale Egbedun, vow to recover the funds and maintain financial autonomy for local governments. The state government, represented by Samuel Idowu, denies the accusations, stating that proper procedures were followed for fund disbursement.

The ongoing dispute has led to legal battles, with the Supreme Court granting full financial autonomy to local governments nationwide.
