Osun Crisis: Group Condemns Alleged Illegal Release of Local Government Funds
The Omoluwabi Progressives, a group linked to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Osun State, criticized the alleged release of local government funds by the Federal Government to an account they deemed illegal. They accused the government of undermining democracy and the rule of law by diverting funds meant for elected local government officials.
The group warned that touching these funds could lead to criminal repercussions. The controversy stems from the aftermath of the Osun local government elections and ongoing legal disputes surrounding the electoral process.
