Agoola Ajayi, the Deputy Governor of Ondo State, has said that the Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu gets a security vote of N750million naira and an imprest of about N150 million monthly.
Ajayi, who is the governorship candidate of Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) also claimed he (Ajayi) earns N12 million naira and not the N13 million as claimed by Governor Akeredolu.
He was reacting to an earlier comment by Akeredolu claiming he (Ajayi) gets the highest running grant of N13m monthly.
But the Deputy Governor in a statement signed by his media aide, Allen Sowore, expressed surprise that Akeredolu could announce to the world the sum of N13m as what Ajayi gets as if it was a gift.
He said what he receives until the Governor stopped releasing same was 12million naira per month.
According to him, this includes the imprest of Deputy Governor’s office, allowances of staff, fuelling of vehicles, care of his residence and welfare of his aides.
“Huge as the amount may appear, it amounts to not so much when the heads and number of individuals it caters for are considered,” he added.
“The governor gets a security vote of N750million naira every month. He, Akeredolu, also gets an imprest of about N150 million”
The Deputy Governor further alleged that Akeredolu’s wife and son also collect millions of naira as imprest on monthly basis without occupying any constitutionally recognised positions.

Standard and corrupt practice as a governor. Sad!

ReplyDeleteThe deputy is about to be changed...
Hmmmmmmm, see Nigerians money shared like cake
ReplyDeleteLol. Small na.enugu governor receives 20million on any project he signs. If you're presenting anything for him to sign, you calculate the cost, then add 20million. Unless Oyo is your case.
ReplyDeleteLord have mercy
ReplyDeleteSee how people destroy their own house. Is something fundamentally wrong with leadership in this part of the world?
ReplyDeleteBoth leadership and followership. If some people don't steal, their family and people will call them mumu. We all need to change.

ReplyDeleteI have never seen someone as wicked and uncouth has the man, he shares contracts between his family and inlaws alone, he is owing salaries and he talks to civil servants as if they are his slaves, his wife and son nko? Story for another day, even his inlaws na enjoyment. Ondo state Polytechnic lecturers are being owed 8 months salary, he paid 3 months now that he wants to campaign, he pays salary in %, he once paid 31% now he is paying up to 70% cos he wants them to vote him back, I pray he doesn't come back. Enough is enough!
ReplyDeleteAgain a lot of governors do this but because the deputy is fighting with him all these things are coming out.
DeleteKaแป!
DeleteThis not right, and I was rooting seriously for him thinking that he would make a positive change, now this!!!!!
'Not surprised. To think that these are the same lawyers, some of whom form social critics when not in office.
