Southwest PDP urges Makinde to Audit Ajimobi’s administration, to set the records straight

The Southwest chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has urged Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State to conduct a proper audit of what transpired during the tenure of the immediate past governor of the state, Senator Abiola Ajimobi.

The party said the audit exercise would help the new government to ascertain all the initiatives carried out under the last administration.

The group’s position was contained in a statement issued on Tuesday in Ibadan by Mr. Ayo Fadaka, the South-West PDP Publicity Secretary.

The party was reacting to a statement allegedly credited to the former governor that the issue of missing government vehicles was a “minor” one.

”The Oyo State Government continues to maintain that many of the cars procured in February 2019 by the Ajimobi administration remain missing and such vehicles, in view of their age, cannot be classified and described as unserviceable.

”We, therefore, demand of Senator Abiola Ajimobi to take due cognisance of what posterity will say concerning him and his tenure and to immediately impress it on his appointees to return those vehicles, ” the statement said

The party, which called for proper investigation of the administration’s initiatives, lauded the giant strides already being recorded less than 100 days in office of Makinde.

It stated that the people of Oyo State are, indeed, under a new lease of life under Makinde.

”We congratulate Governor Makinde for bringing laughter back to the lips of the state workers, especially pensioners, through his administration’s payment of 100 per cent of their emoluments, which demonstrates his respect for the people he governs,” it said.
