"Alleged Sabotage at Olaiya Flyover: A Desperate Attempt to Discredit

The recent damage to the Olaiya Flyover appears to be a deliberate act of sabotage aimed at tarnishing the structure's integrity. This incident follows the APC's press conference, where they alleged that the state government planned to damage the flyover to justify the impending failure of their own projects at Oke-fia and LAMECO. The two flyovers under construction at Oke-fia and LAMECO have encountered significant technical issues, potentially jeopardizing their success. It seems that some individuals are attempting to preemptively discredit the Olaiya Flyover, which has withstood criticism and scrutiny.

Osun borrowed N10bn in 2023, plans more borrowings in 2024 By Adebayo Adedeji

Facts have emerged that the Osun State Government under the headship of Senator Ademola Adeleke received a loan of N10,022,382,348.40 ( N10bn) in Y2023. The loan, described in the 2023 Budget Performance report of the state as Capital Development Fund, was borrowed from international financial institutions purportedly to enhance the infrastructure of the state. This revelation has given the lie to the boast  of the state governor, Adeleke, that his government has not obtained any loan to execute its projects. Similarly, another document has also revealed that the state government is planning to borrow additional N50.4bn in Y2024. These borrowings are despite the big Internal Generated Revenue ( IGR) of N39.5bn and federal allocation of N141bn that accrued to the state in 2023 and for which the state governor has failed to account.
