Sell Your Helicopter To Pay Osun Workers, PDP Tells Aregbesola

The Osun State chapter of PDP are actually in a ‘deep war’ with Governor Aregbesola for refusing to pay State workers and also allegedly converting a helicopter which was bought for security surveillance for his personal use. These and many more was stated in a press statement released by the party through its Director, Media and Strategy, Diran Odeyemi. This is not the first time the party will be crying out over his government. Please continue…

“The PDP is urging the government to sell the helicopter Governor Aregbesola said was procured for the state and he should stop frivolous trips to Cuba.

“What this administration told us was that the helicopter was to be used for surveillance, but we have since discovered that the machine is only serving the traveling needs of Aregbesola and his family. 

This remains one draining pipe that must be blocked.

“The governor and his aides should also forthwith stop traveling in chartered aircraft around the world. If President Muhammadu Buhari could be traveling on British Airways, even when aircrafts in Presidential fleet are available, there is need for Governor Aregbesola to borrow a leaf,” the statement read.

The statement also went further to say;

“The people of the state now place their hope on the lawmakers to check the ‘excesses of the governor’ in the interest of the masses.”

“It is also fresh in our minds, the huge amount Ogbeni Aregbesola expended on the last Ekiti governorship poll, Lagos governorship poll, and the presidential project of the All Progressive Congress, APC.

“All these actions and many other wasteful spending led us to where we are now, which if they could be reversed, could bring financial reserves for the state.

“But if Ogbeni Aregbesola will not treat this advise with disdain, and henceforth, begin to act as governor of all, we believe at least, he will be able to pay few months of the backlog of salaries owed workers and retirees.
