The Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun, now known as[b] Emperor Amosun[/b], has named his commissioners that comprises mainly his business associates and three politicians in persons of Muyiwa Oladapo,Olu Odeyemi and Daniel Adejobi.

What many people didn’t know, however, is that Stanbic IBTC Bank railroaded him to give the institution juicy appointments to safeguard its investment in the governor. Gathered that before the last election, Amosun had approached the bank through one of his friends, Segun Adeoluwa who is now the Secretary to the State Government for N300m loan to help him prosecute the campaign.

It was alleged that after serious negotiation, the sum of N290m was given to the senator while some officials of the bank pocketed N10m, with the condition that if he eventually won the bank would produce the commissioner for finance and be in charge of budget, which used to be under the ministry of finance. This unholy agreement was why the new Emperor of Oke-Mosan created a Ministry of Budget, manned by the two staffers of the bank –– Kemi Adeosun, who is in charge of Finance and Oluwande Muoyo, who is in charge of Budget.

This arrogance and misuse of executive power didn’t go without causing rancour within the fold of the ruling Action Congress of Nigeria in the state who feel slighted over the way the governor is handling the affairs of the state without consulting the party hierarchy.

Further learnt that Amosun was confronted with this misdemeanour by the party leader in Ogun Central Constituency, Chief Segun Taiwo, who told him about what they were hearing about the list of commissioners. Amosun played a fast one him by showing to him a list that comprises those the party preferred.

However, when the governor sent the list to the House of Assembly for confirmation, it was not the same as the one showed to the party leader. This, we learnt, prompted Chief Taiwo to go back to Amosun but instead for him to offer an explanation, he simply told the man to go to hell and that he should be allowed to run his government the way he wanted. He allegedly stormed out of the venue of the meeting and reported back to Osoba.

The House of Assembly members also queried the list and asked the nominees to produce their party membership cards before the House could go ahead with their screening but they were unable to do so. The duo of Hon. Adijat Adeleye representing Ifo 2 Constituency and Hon.Allen representing Abeokuta South Constituency 2 made so much noise about the anomalies before other members of the House prevailed on them to allow the screening after serious negotiations.

The negotiation made the governor appoint some opposition party members in the newly constituted local government caretaker committee recently inaugurated by the governor.

Global News further learnt that[b] it is not only Stanbic IBTC that has its nominees in theOgunStatecabinet; billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote gave Amosun huge amount of money during his campaign and produced some of the commissioners. One of them is Barrister Segun Odubela, the former head of Rickey Tarfa Chamber who is now the Commissioner for Education in the state.

Right now, the centre can no longer hold within Action Congress in the state because the party is now polarised between two factions right from ward level: namely Osoba and Amosun groups. It is said that if anybody wants to do anything within the party, the question he would first have to answer is which group he belongs to. And if he/she doesn’t belong to the Amosun group he is doomed.

Wonders will never end!!!

@afam4eva u are a moderfuker my Gov still remain de best in ACN my Governor Adam oshomle

let's not forget that Amosun is not really ACN. The mistake ACN made was to allow an ANPP loyalist to run on the platform.
I'm not a politician and not in support of any particular party.

Balderdash!!! Global news ko local news ni!
