NULGE Raises Alarm Over Alleged Plan to Pay Osun LG Funds to Ousted APC Officials
The Nigerian Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) in Osun State revealed that the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) is allegedly planning to release withheld local government funds to APC chairmen and councillors, who were removed by court order. NULGE President Nathaniel Ogungbangbe warned against this move, citing it as a violation of the law and an attempt to undermine the legal process.
The situation stems from a long-standing crisis in local government administration in Osun State, currently under Supreme Court review. The potential release of funds to ousted officials raises concerns about transparency and adherence to judicial decisions in the governance of local authorities.
