The awards were bestowed on the governor and the state in Abuja, at an event tagged, “Federal Government of Nigeria/World Bank States Fiscal Transparency, Accountability and Sustainability (SFTAS) recognition dinner with Governors/Awards Night.”

The global bank said the Osun Governor clinched the award following reforms which he deployed and which have impacted positively on the fiscal transparency and accountability in public resource management of the state.

SFTAS is a programme that encourages and motivates Nigerian states towards improvement of their Public Finance Management systems, processes and institutions aimed at strengthening fiscal transparency to help build trust in government, facilitate accountability in public resource management and ensure sustainability in the participating states.

Speaking shortly after receiving the awards on behalf of the governor and the state, Osun State Finance Commissioner, Bola Oyebamiji, said Oyetola has been able to manage the debt situation of Osun in such a way that it has not affected the state’s present and future development.

“For me, the awards go further to show that all the accolades being showered on our boss, who prefers to call himself the team leader, is no fluke.
