Governor Ajimobi Reveals Why Government Will Not Spend Money On LAUTECH

The Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, has
revealed why the state government will not
spend a dime on the institution.
The governor made this known appeal while
acknowledging the receipt of an apology letter
tendered by the management of Emmanuel
Alayande College of Education, Oyo, on behalf
of the students.
Ajimobi also ordered the re-opening EACOED,
which was closed six weeks ago after violent
protest by the students of the institution.
On LAUTECH, Ajimobi said Oyo and Osun
states, the owners of LAUTECH, would not
spend more money on the institution until an
audit of the funds expended so far is carried
out.
Ajimobi said, “We appeal to the management
and academic staff of LAUTECH to allow the
consultants engaged to properly audit the
institution’s account.”
” We will not pay any money again until the
books are properly audited.”
” It is not by force, propaganda, mischief and
innuendoes that they will get result but by
positive engagement.”
“There is nothing wrong in auditing the school,
it is simply checking on what we have done
so far, particularly the amount we have
committed to the school.”
“Why are they afraid of audit? We appeal to
them to let the auditors do their job.”
” And if the audit report requires us to pay
more money, we will pay but the ones they
have collected so far, they must also account
for them.”
