Osun Deputy Governor’s Lodge was Looted, State Govt Insists

Our attention has been drawn to a statement credited to the former Deputy Governor of Osun State, where he claimed nothing was missing in the Deputy Governor’s lodge. We want to insist that the lodge was not only looted but that the pillaging was extensive.

We have documentary proof of the state of the lodge at the time of its inauguration. From the main house to the service flats, the place was stripped of all fittings and other movable items. The video in our possession was detailed and a physical inspection has confirmed the ransacking of the house.

The defence of the former Deputy Governor is spurious and contrary to the reality on the ground. We urge him to take responsibility as the Deputy Governor of Osun State, Prince Kola Adewusi spoke from factual reports which can be verified by a visit to the lodge.

Signed:
Mallam Olawale Rasheed,
Spokesperson to the Executive Governor
