As a rejoinder to this publication: https://www.nairaland.com/2872621/aregbesola-inflated-airport-contract-n11.5bn#42080710

Femi Makinde, Osogbo

The Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has said he deserves commendation for building the Moshood Abiola International Airport at Ido-Osun, Osun State, for N11.5bn.

A consultant to the state government on information, Mr. Sunday Akere, who spoke on behalf of the governor, said this in a telephone interview with our correspondent on Tuesday.

He said the contract was not inflated to siphon the state’s resources as alleged by the Peoples Democratic Party.

He said the increase in the contract sum was necessitated by the inflation caused by the fall of the naira.

Akere said, “The PDP in Osun should be ignored, they are just seeking relevance. They should find out how much PDP states like Akwa Ibom, Gombe and others built their airports.

“When former President Goodluck Jonathan was in power, he said he added an additional airstrip to the Nnamdi Azikiwi International Airport, Abuja with N36bn. We should be commended for building an airport with N11.5bn.

“If we are building a complete airport with a hanger and other facilities for N11.5bn, then we should be commended. The governor deserves commendation.”

Akere also said the initial cost of the airport was underestimated.

But the PDP accused the governor of increasing unilaterally the contract sum of the airport from N4.5bn to N15.5bn.

The Director of Media and Strategy of the Osun PDP, Mr. Diran Odeyemi, said this in a statement on Sunday.

The statement read, “We are aware that Governor Rauf Aregbesola, on January 8, 2016 through a letter with reference number SP/S96/1/vi/348 re-awarded the airport contract to the same contractor and a payment of N472m was paid as take-off sum.

“The same company had earlier been paid N2.7bn for the same project without any serious work done on the project.

The PDP also accused the governor of inflating the contract sum in order to embezzle the bailout funds it got from the Central Bank of Nigeria.

The opposition party lamented that workers in the employ of the state were languishing in hunger as a result of unpaid salaries.

The party had said, “We are calling on the President and anti-graft agencies to send a secret team to the site of the so-called Moshood Abiola International Airport, Ido-Osun, to confirm what the government and the airport company had done with the N2.7bn taken from the purse of the state on December 14, 2012.


“Out of the amount, N2.5bn was sourced as a loan from a bank to be repaid monthly at N100m from the SURE-P funds. That loan is now part of the N88bn restructured for the state by the Central Bank for repayment till the year 2034 .”

And what are the criteria Hausa/Fulani use? They are high in poverty index and other social vices and low education in Nigeria, what are your leaders doing with all the stolen wealth

Yet not even a single good road in the whole of Abia State. Aba road....

U need to come to abia state to see the wonder the man has done in just few months. Compare with buhari that is juncketing all over the world begging for money, i preffer him.

No problem multiply the sum borrowed under a year by 4 years and you will know that by the time the man finishes his tenure,Abians will pity themselves courtesy of Supreme court official license for corruption unlimited. Good luck to the Abians

that's what wailers will care to know before they decide to face their own problems. Besides is Aregbesola the only governor in Nigeria? Why the fuss about him all the time?

At least they don't blame it on the FG in the name of marginalization.

ABIANS DON SUFFER FROM ORJI TO IKPAZU
THE SUFFERING CONTINUES

seacoast:
That's a PDP man with APC tendency...

Na pdp b baba for looting nw

buzquet:
borrowing for project is nt my problem. but borrowing for lootting is the problem

U r a learner, looting takes place thro inflated project costs ie digital looting

On the borrowing things.

While I know many of the governors are corrupt (and Ikpeazu is not my favourite governor....I backed APGA last year to win Abia).....the fact of the matter is that most states have to borrow money now to survive.

Oil prices have dropped, and that means state allocations drop too. So...your governor has to borrow....or he raises taxes (Which most Nigerians do not like).

jjay28:
Abia is a scam! No infrastructures,nothing! The state is dirtier than a pistry! Abia state is a far cry from modern reality! God alone can save Abia state! Because,this administration is more or less a recycled version of the T.A. Orji administration!

How is your own State. SMH for Igbos who specialise in praising their State and running their sister States down.

It is so disheartening that the Governors of this unworkable contraption keep selling the future of their unborn generations and enslaving the innocent people that found themselves in this dream united country by taking loans that would be mismanaged.

continue deceiving ursef and mortgaging the future of unborn generations of the alter of partisan politics.

Gov.Wike wasted over N120 billion in His 100 days in office and has so far borrowed over N70 billion with no commensurate development projects to show for it in the state.
Please Abia people should thank Dr.Ikpeazu for pitying them and borrowing this small money so far.
God is keenly watching our Governors, Senators and other politicians in 3D.

This is part of the problem of the SE, instead of him to tackle the issue, he is shifting to those in the SW. Why are we like this for God sake? This is something else.

Get back here when you are ready to answer my question. Thanks.

Must you always derail every thread with irrelevant post, grow up and stop posting nonsense on every thread.

DURING HIS CAMPAIGN HE TOLD ABIANS THAT HE IS COMING TO CONTINUE FROM WHERE HIS ROLE MODEL STOPPED.
OUT OF 78 BILLION NAIRA INDEBTED TO ABIA STATE HE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR 24 BILLION AND IT IS ONLY 11 MONTHS.
SO THE REMAINING 3 YEARS & A MONTH WILL TAKE CARE OF THE 54 BILLION AND POSSIBLY IT IS EXPECTED HE OUTDO HIS MASTER MEANING HE MAY BORROW MORE THAN 78 BILLION.
WE WEEP FOR A ONE TIME GOOD STATE CALLED ABIA STATE.
