Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, on
Wednesday, noted that the state Government will retrieve the
billions looted during the Abiola Ajimobi
administration.
The Oyo State Governor revealed this in a statement released
through his Chief Press Secretary, Taiwo Adisa, on Wednesday at the
commencement of the construction of the 21-km Ajia-Airport-New Ife
Expressway, in Ajia town.
The 21-kilometre road project was awarded at the cost of
N8.5bn.
Even though Governor Makinde did not mention the name of the
former governor, he noted that the funds were looted 96 months
preceding his assumption of office would be retrieved.
Ajimobi ruled the state for eight years, which is the same as 96
months before Makinde took over.
Makinde said, “I heard somebody criticising us on the radio
concerning the N100bn bond and was of the opinion that this
administration wants to put the state in debt.”

For the period of eight years they spent in the office, they
were only preoccupied with how to corner N1bn monthly into their
private pockets.”
“They spent 96 months in office, that means they have Oyo
State’s N96bn with them. We will retrieve every fund that belongs
to Oyo people for the purpose of infrastructure
development.”
Makinde said his administration would reduce the infrastructure
deficit in the state within a very short time.
