My people, the wahala wey dey Osun State no be small matter oh! Dr. Bolaji Akinola wey be Special Adviser to Minister Adegboyega Oyetola don burst out to accuse Governor Ademola Adeleke of lie lie talk about wetin dey happen for local government for Osun.
Akinola yarn say Adeleke dey use propaganda and false story to cover im own failure as governor, plus say na dem dey hide the truth from the people. Him come add say Oyetola no get any hand for the wahala wey dey affect local governments for Osun and that if money no dey reach dem, na Adeleke government dey carry the cross.
Osun State Commissioner for Information, Kolapo Alimi sef don fire back dey accuse Oyetola of trying to twist wey dey happen. Him talk say dem no blame Adeleke for the crisis; rather, na una elected guys wey wan control the local governments wey no get any right again.
Akinola no gree bend, him dey insist say local government secretariats dey function well, workers don come back, and dey carry out their work. Him dey remind Adeleke say court talk say elected local government chairmen dey back, and the matter no get any appeal, so everybody must obey wetin court talk.
The matter no dey sweet when Alimi dey counter say wetin Akinola talk no get head or tail. According to am, even if court don talk, tenure na matter wey involve law and sentiment no fit hold water. If tenure don finish, court no fit bring am back.
Nobody dey reason this matter how e suppose be? Alimi dey shake table again, he talk say the Supreme Court judgement on local government autonomy no be to use am for tenure elongation or any kinda illegal occupation of office. Wetin dey happen be say all dem allegations of freezing funds dey raise serious dust about the politics wey dey play for Osun.
Para for the matter, Alimi dey call on President Tinubu make e call Oyetola to order because na federal power dey look like sey e dey punish state for political reasons. Both sides dey gather cases for court like sey dem dey play football for local government matter, wahala dey everywhere!
As e be now, the fight between Osun State Government and opposition APC don hot up the local government wahala; na wetin we go dey watch as dem dey kasa kasan dem way through court and political tussle.
