Ozekhome Slams FG For Withholding Osun LG Funds

Renowned lawyer, Ozekhome, criticized the Federal Government for withholding funds meant for Osun local governments during an interview on Channels Television's Sunday Politics. He accused the Attorney General of the Federation of bias, alleging that the AGF recommended the release of funds to a sacked APC official in the state.

Ozekhome urged President Bola Tinubu to intervene, citing a similar legal battle during the Obasanjo administration when state allocations were withheld. He emphasized the need for impartial legal advice to protect the people's interests, recalling a similar situation during the Goodluck Jonathan administration.

Ozekhome highlighted the importance of ensuring that newly elected officials in Osun receive their rightful allocations without delay.
