Stop Campaign Of Calumny Against Aregbesola, Famurewa Tells Opposition

A member of the National Assembly, Hon. Ajibola Famurewa, has cautioned the opposition parties to stop their campaign of calumny against Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, over the delay in the payment of workers’ salaries.
Famurewa said that Osun was not the only state owing its workforce.
Famurewa, representing the state Ijesa-South Federal Constituency, at a press conference in Osogbo accused the opposition of giving the crisis unnecessary media hype thus creating the impression that Osun was the only state where salaries were owed.

While describing the inability of the state government to pay the workers’ salaries as most unfortunate, Famurewa said it was sinful and despicable to accuse Aregbesola of financial recklessness.

Famurewa said that the resources of the state were being judiciously managed for people-centred development by the Aregbesola’s administration.
He condemned what he described as spurious allegations against Aregbesola and media hype of the financial incapacity of the state by members of the opposition parties, just as he warned them against disparaging the governor.
