File: Former Deputy Governor of Osun State, Iyiola Omisore
Ex-Osun State Deputy Iyiola Omisore has claimed it would take more than 22 years for the state to clear the debts incurred by the leadership of Governor Rauf Aregbesola.
Omisore said this in Abuja on Monday after getting his Certificate of Return from the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
“The state is deplorable. It has no infrastructure, health services; salaries are being owed and we are the most indebted state in this country,” Omisore said.
“Our ISPO, that is, our debit from FAAC, is signed till 2040. That is 25 years from 2015.
“So, it is a peculiar situation and a task that cannot be given to a youth corps member or a mere politician. It is not a joke.”
He added that “Nigeria has evolved to voting people with experience, with qualifications who have done it before.
“It is not just about running for office. It is not about having a godfather who will sponsor you and be making money from Osun State through the governor.”
