NEWS RELEASE

OSOGBO– 13/11/2023– Osunstate.gov.ng

The attention of the Osun State Government has been drawn to a ludicrous claim of workers discontent with the State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke. We believe the concoction, which has the fitting of the distraught opposition, was pushed through a non-existent labour body, promoting false information against the government.

It is worth pointing out for the public enlightenment that the only known and recognized body for workers in Osun state and by extension Nigeria as a whole are the NLC, TUC and JNC, all of which enjoys cordial relationship with the administration of Governor Adeleke.
We want to affirm that, after carrying out due investigation, that the so called Osun Workers Union (OWU) is a fictitious group, that mischievously exists only on paper with the sole objective of misleading the public, most especially, our loving, diligent and dedicated workers whose love and solidarity for Adeleke led government can not be over emphasised .

To set the record straight, the supplementary budget sponsored by Governor Adeleke was to fund meaningful projects across sectors of the state. It is only in the realm of the empty and unsavory imagination of the cheap opposition members and blackmailers that Governor Adeleke allocated N10bn to his office. We are quick to say that no such thing exist in reality.

It is against every sense of reasonability that Governor Adeleke who forfeited security votes to free more money for the benefit of Osun people will vote N10 billion for his office. But it is obvious that those behind the latest round of lies are beyond reasoning, otherwise, they would have realized the emptiness of their thinking which is nothing but a mere political propaganda and balderdash taken too far.

The Adeleke administration values and respects the contributions of all workers in Osun state and using every available opportunities in appreciating their service by prioritizing their welfare.
To buttress its position in this regard,the present worker-friendly administration of His Excellency, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has initiated numerous measures to enhance workers working conditions in addition to ensuring fair compensation,aimed at passionately addressing the evolving needs of its existing workforce.

Osun state government wants to repeat for the umpteenth times that In a matter of days, it will be rolling out well packaged transport scheme to assuage the pressure that fuel subsidy removal wrought on its workforce.

Additionally, the state government under the watch of Senator Ademola Adeleke is also in the process of determining the appropriate financial support for civil servants in line with the economic realities of the state.

To this end,patrticularly in sealing the mouth of the toothless and baseless opposition,who on a daily basis are winking in the dark in a desperate bid to bring the worker-friendly administration of Senator Ademola Adeleke into disrepute, we passionately and respectfully invite the public to discountenance the falsehood in circulation as it was never the position of our workforce, who share the goal of Governor Adeleke in moving Osun forward.
Additionally and with all sense of openness and transparency , we also stress that every fund that accrued to the state, including the N2bn subsidy fund and N7bn refund from the Federal Government, are used in line with the need of the state.

As we had disclosed before, the N2bn subsidy fund will be used for the procurement of vehicles and rehabilitation of public health centres, while the balance will be used to buy food to share for the people. As for the N7bn refund, we emphasize that it will be used to fund infrastructural projects and enhance the living standards of the people of the state.

Finally, while we continue to re-emphasise our avowed commitment to make life better for all and sundry, we also use this opportunity to restate our commitment to the wellbeing of all.
And to our dedicated and peace loving workers,who,we are sure will not be part of any shenanigan aimed at dragging the good name of the present administration into mud, we reassure of our continued commitment to all acts that will continue to put smiles on their faces in line with our 5 point integral action plans.
We must however stress the reality of the financial capacity of the state, and that we would be careful not to repeat the carelessness of the past that is responsible for the current challenges.

The recent reforms and repositioning of the state civil service operations in Osun state under the leadership of His Excellency, Governor Ademola Adeleke continue to bear positive fruits as Osun State emerges the top state alongside two other States among the 36 states of the federation and the FCT on Audit compliance rating according to the accountability index of the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAN) as of October 2023.

The ICAN’s rating on state’s compliance with audit rules scored Osun, Ekiti and Lagos state as ‘Excellent’, seven states were scored ‘good’ while 26 others were rated ‘fair’.

ICAN commenced audit rating for states to assess financial management and accountability of state governments. The assessment focuses on compliance with audit rules and regulations and the quality and timeliness of audit reports, resulting in a rating of Excellent, Good, Fair or Poor for each state.

According to Innocent Okwuosa, the 59th president of ICAN, “the rankings suggest an overall trend of improving compliance with the constitutional requirement to audit state and local council accounts since the introduction of the ICAN accountability index.

An “Excellent” ranking for Osun state by the ICAN rules means “the Osun state government under Governor Ademola Adeleke has an excellent level of compliance with audit rules. Ensuring timely submission of audit reports with high level of quality and ensuring full implementation of audit recommendations.

This impressive performance of Osun State is another testimony of His Excellency, Governor Ademola Adeleke’s commitment to due process, transparency and accountability in the governance affairs of the state.

In conformity with the existing laws which stipulate that the draft Budget of the State should be presented to the House for approval before the end of the year, I am pleased to present to the honourable members of Osun State House of Assembly through the Honourable Speaker, the Draft 2024 Budget of Osun State.

I sincerely thank the Hon. Speaker and all the Honourable members of the Assembly for your mutual understanding, cooperation in our collective effort and desire to take our dear State to greater heights. Without iota of doubt, whatever achievement we have recorded so far could not have been possible, but for your support.

I therefore, on behalf of the Executive Arm express our gratitude to the entire House and hoping to receive more of such support in the coming years.

Hon. Speaker, I am highly delighted to present to you and honourable members of the Assembly, the 2024 draft Budget tagged “BUDGET OF RECONSTRUCTION AND RECOVERY” in the sum of Two Hundred and Seventy- Three Billion, Nine Hundred and Eight Million, Nine Hundred and Ninety -Seven Thousand, Four Hundred and Ten Naira (N273,908,997,410.00).

This figure is made up of recurrent expenditure of One Hundred and Sixty – Five Billion, Six Hundred and Fifty – Four Million, Nine Hundred and Seventy – Six Thousand, Seven Hundred Naira (N165,654,976,700.00) and capital expenditure of One Hundred and Eight Billion, Two Hundred and Fifty – Four Million, Twenty Thousand, Seven Hundred and Ten Naira (N108,254,020,710.00).

The tag for this budget reflects our current focus of rebuilding the battered state we inherited. It is a sign we are targetting recovery after successful revamping of all sectors of Osun society. I assure honourable members that the executive arm has the will and the determination to ensure achievements of budgetary goals once this proposal is passed into Appropriation Act.

Today, I am reassured of our collective partnership for a new Osun of our dream. You have in me a Governor with firm belief in executive-legislative collaboration for development.

Thanks for listening

HE, Senator Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke,
Executive Governor of Osun State

PRESS STATEMENT

OSOGBO – 05/11/2023- osunstate.gov.ng

Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke is devoting all his attentional resources to due process and the rule of law in the business of governance in the State, Special Adviser to the Governor on Legal Matters, Hon Hashim Abioye has declared.

Responding to insinuations by the superimposed National Secretary of the APC, Ajibola Basiru about the state of due process in the state, Abioye lampooned the APC chieftain as a politician suffering from delusional depression over the superlative performance of the Governor and the administration’s deep commitment to due process and observance of procurement laws amidst rule of law.

The Special Adviser said Bashiru who, out of perpetual pain of his electoral loss, has unceasingly embarked on verbal attacks on Governor Adeleke and his family, painting a false picture of the Governor being under the influence of his family, especially Chief Mrs Dupe Adeleke-Sanni, the Governor’s elder Sister.

In a statement issued in Osogbo on Sunday, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Legal Matters, Hon. Hashim Abioye, cautioned the Osogbo-born former Lawmaker to drop his insolence and to respect his present Office into which he was hurriedly packaged after he disgracefully lost his return bid to the National Assembly.

It is clear that Basiru was bitter at the peace and tranquility that is reigning within the Adeleke family, hence his many unfounded allegations and vituperations at a Governor who is delivering dividends of democracy to the people of Osun State.

Abioye also stated that since the coming on board of the Adeleke’s Administration, the Governor has not for once erred on the side of due process and rule of law. His statement reads:

“I wonder why the man popularly called SRJ who is notorious for insolence and uncouth words against elderly people doesn’t process his words properly before making his presentations in public, especially when it comes to the issue of Osun under Governor Adeleke. He has been so obsessed with hatred for Governor Adeleke and his family to the extent of desperately causing violence on an Eid Day, flagrantly disobeying protocols and obviously disrespecting the Governor. Since his plan to launch violence on Eid Day at Osogbo Prayer Ground failed, he has resorted to unjustified verbal attacks on Mr. Governor and his family.

While the man SRJ reserves the right to criticize the Adeleke’s Administration as a member of the opposition in Osun State, he should for once be constructive and objective instead of his usual arrogant rigmarole”.

Speaking further Abioye states that “Senator Ajibola Basiru was part of the Aregbesola’s Administration for 8 years in Osun who sat as a key member of the State Executive Council under his former Boss with whom he has now ungratefully picked a fight. This is someone who is reasonably expected to know that it is not possible for an individual to hijack the Governance of a State except under an indolent State Executive Council, and all democratic institutions in the State are no longer functioning. This is not the case with Osun.

“Governor Adeleke in his well-thought-out plans for the State always consults with his formidable team of experts in relevant fields and seeks necessary legal advice in line with due process before embarking on any program for the State. Doesn’t the man SRJ listen to Government Officials from various Agencies of Government about how transparently efficient and consultative-ly alert Governor Adeleke has been in running the affairs of the State?”

Abioye then advised Ajibola Basiru to come out open if he has any personal problem with the Governor’s Elder Sister, Yeye Dupe Adeleke-Sanni, especially with the kind of affectionate bond and love among the Adelekes who are renowned for always rallying around and supporting members of their family in all walks of life. “If SRJ treats his own family members with disgusting distancing like COVID-19, he shouldn’t expect reasonable people like the Adelekes to loathe their family members as SRJ does to his own family members”.

The Governor’s Aide therefore finally cautions Ajibola Basiru to change his petty style and find reasonable, constructive, and sensible means of criticizing the present Administration if his criticism will have any meaning.

The Governor described as commendable the immediate amendment of the commission’s operational code by its leadership which prohibits night sting operation.

The emphasis on strict observance of suspects’ human rights was also noted as a major turning point,calling on the commission to ensure strict compliance with the new regulations.

Such immediate reform, the Governor noted, will save the commission the possibility of reputational damage and needless harassment of innocent citizens.

NEWS RELEASE

OSOGBO – 31/10/2023 – Osunstate.gov.ng

Osun State Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Hon Kolapo Alimi, has affirmed that the recently unveiled multi-billion Naira infra plan has strong sustainability components alongside strong adherence to due process and procurement laws.

Speaking while hosting the leadership of Coalition for Good Governance(C4GG) in his office today, the commissioner clarified that the government of Governor Ademola Adeleke complied with provisions of the law in the design and the ongoing implementation of the infra plan, noting that no procurement law is violated.

“Permit me to clarify that all projects listed in the plan were subjected to due process requirements. We invite the public to note that before the unveiling of the plan, the Ministry of Works has been implementing some intervention programmes across the state using direct labour.

“Those projects listed by Mr Governor are not covered by those intervention programmes. The infra plans are contractual projects whose advertisements for bid submissions are already published in compliance with due process.

“The public is also informed that the state has a supplementary budget preparatory to the submission of the 2024 appropriation proposals to the House of Assembly by Mr Governor. My point is that nothing is being done outside the law in line with Mr Governor’s mantra of due process, rule of law and fear of God.

“It is also important to at this point urge any group or individuals to seek more information if they so wish by applying the Freedom of Information Act. This administration is committed to free flow of information under an open governance model.

“We want to reiterate that the multi-billion naira infra plan is to be executed without loans from financial institutions. We affirm as the State Chairman of the PDP had said that the fund will come from savings, blockage of revenue leakages, expanded revenue base, refunds from federation accounts and reduction of the cost of governance. The plan is sustainable with a multiplier effect on the state economy.

“On behalf of Mr Governor and his entire cabinet, we thank Osun people home and abroad for the overwhelming approval of the infra plan. We also commend fellow Nigerians who appreciated the ingenuity and innovative thinking of the state government.

“To ensure delivery as planned, Mr Governor will soon inaugurate a monitoring team composed of individuals from the media and the civil society. This is to ensure value for money and quality assurance.

Speaking earlier, the Coordinator of the C4GG, Hon Tayo Adegbemile said the group was at the Commissioner’s office to brief the state government on its ongoing survey and monitoring of the state of governance in Osun state.

“During the Ipade Imole, we submitted a monitoring report to Mr Governor. We are now on the second phase. We are conducting a statewide survey ahead of the one year anniversary of the Adeleke administration”, Mr Adegbemile.

Oluomo Kolapo Alimi,
Honourable Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment
