Osun State governor, Ademola Adeleke has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state of spreading fake news over the allocations to his office.

Governor Adeleke’s spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, said it was not true that the governor made huge financial allocations to his office while university fees are exorbitant.

Earlier the APC in Osun State has fired the first salvo at the governor while calling on the Owa Obokun of Ijesaland, Oba Adesuyi Haastrup, Ajimoko III, to intervene over the hike in the tuition fees of students of University of Ilesa.

Addressing a press conference in Osogbo, the state director of Media and information of the party, Chief Kola Olabisi, accused the Adeleke-led administration in Osun State of attempting to frustrate the institution out of existence through underfunding.

“For instance, the state government only supported the newly established state university in Ilesa with a measly N60 million subvention from January to September 2024 as the whole funding for the period came from students’ school fees.

“The law students who are charged N1.5 million per session and nursing students N1.2 million are the ones running the university. How many civil servants can send their children to UNILESA considering the poor remuneration of the workers and cut-throat school fees in the institution?

“Universities all over the world are funded through government subventions, private endowments and corporate sponsorship, not through arbitrary high school fees as it has become the order of the day in UNILESA and other tertiary institutions in the state”.

The party alleged that the Adeleke led administration deliberately denied the institution fund to frustrate the institution out of existence because they see it as former governor Adegboyega Oyetola’s legacy.

The party also accused the state government of paying lip service to education through its failure to recruit teachers two years into the administration after the government sacked 1,500 teachers employed by its predecessor.

The party alleged Adeleke of voting monstrous allocation to his office, when an average Osun citizen is not well catered for adding that the Governor had spent N38 billion for his food, entertainment and lavish and luxury lifestyle and operation of  his office.

In his reaction over the governor’s allocation to his office, Governor Adeleke’s spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed described APC postulation as a show of illiteracy.

He said a governor’s office is not just Mr. Governor’s office, adding “It has more than 10 parastatals, agencies under it, General Services and others, and they execute projects. How can you now label all the expenses in that office as the office of the Governor? Fake news again”.
