Osun LG Crisis: Aregbesola's Group Accuses FG of Starving Elected Executives
In Osun State, the crisis over local government leadership funding has escalated, with Aregbesola's group accusing the FG and APC of withholding statutory funds from elected LG executives. The group, Omoluabi Progressives, alleges that the Federal Government is diverting billions into illegal accounts, jeopardizing democracy.
The battle involves the APC, PDP, NULGE, and ADC, with tensions rising over the alleged fund mismanagement. Azeez Adesiji, the group's chairman, condemned the actions as unconstitutional and a threat to democratic principles, calling for resistance against the perceived assault on LG autonomy.
