OSUN GOVERNMENT SHUNS NEW PROJECTS - Osundefender

Despite increased allocation from the Federation Account, Osun State Government, in recent times has refused to embark on new projects or commission of completed ones, since its inauguration for a second term on May 29, 2007.

Recent OSUN DEFENDER investigation has revealed that the State Government, under Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, since May has decided to operate a low-profile lifestyle pending the final determination of its fate by the Election Petitions Tribunal sitting in Osogbo, the state capital.

The state governor and some party officials are also reported to be running up and down making consultations at all levels to save themselves from what many see as an imminent defeat at the tribunal.
