The rumoured-underground withdrawal of N5b from Osun State’s treasury by Governor Ademola Adeleke has drawn his reaction.
The report had said there was a surreptitious withdrawal of the said sum for the reconstruction of the road leading to the Adeleke University in Ede.
Reacting via his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, through a statement on Wednesday ,the governor said the rumoured allegation was a mistruth.
It reads in part, “The public will recall that Adeleke had, during his inauguration, announced the freezing of all state and local government area accounts.
“That was done right at the venue of inauguration before he had any access to government’s records and finances.
“How can such amount be withdrawn from state account on the day of inauguration when the new leader had no access to state accounts?” he asked.
He appealed to members of the public to ignore the rumour.
