Governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo state, Mr Seyi Makinde has accused the Oyo state government under the administration of Governor Abiola Ajimobi of reckless management of the financial resources of the state and enrichment of few government officials and their friends.
In a statement signed recently by his media aide, Mr Dotun Oyelade, Makinde said the state government misappropriated state funds in all sectors of government especially in health, education and agriculture.
In education, Makinde questioned last week’s announcement of the award of N5.7billion contract to renovate schools in the state, with some schools billed for completion on April 30.
Makinde called for explanations on how the state government would expend N5.7 billion on the renovation in 15 days.
He described the three model schools set to be commissioned as inadequate to address school infrastructure deficit, insufficiently motivated and inadequate teachers.
In health, Makinde said, in spite of N116 billion debt, hospitals remained pitiably underfunded, lacking in drugs, equipment, manpower and in a state of disrepair.
“Part of government propaganda to hoodwink unsuspecting members of the public was the announcement last week that N5.7bn contract has been awarded to renovate schools in the state and that a substantial part of the renovation will be completed before the resumption of schools on April 30.
“We want the government to explain how a large chunk of almost N6bn will be expended on the renovation in 15 days. The impression is being given that this arrangement is not only graft inclined but it is money that is already misappropriated,” the statement said.
OPPORTUNITY – GUNBOAT G4
Every G4 foiling catamaran was handmade in the factory in Lelystad, the Netherlands. A passionate team of craftsmen made the boats according to the individual wishes and requirements of the customer. With its extraordinary lines and performance, the G4 sailed its own course. It did not compete with other yachts suitable for coastal sailing. Light as a feather and very powerful, the G4 delivers the ultimate sailing performance with a touch of adrenaline.
It was built and delivered with an extensive package of hydrofoils. The pre-preg structure was state-of-the-art and there was a sea of space for six passengers with lots of comfort. The G4 foiling catamaran was designed as a junior racer with high cruiser content, not the other way around. The G4 was the more luxurious, practical, comfortable, and sophisticated view of every high-performance catamaran that existed until then.
The interior of the G4 foiling catamaran offered space and comfort according to the less is more philosophy. The extremely spacious cockpit could be used for the preparation and consumption of meals or even a party with 15 people. The cabin even gave full standing height at the entrance. The interior was completed with two queen-sized beds and a spacious sofa for 6 to 8 people. Thanks to the great panoramic views, this is a great place to eat, read or navigate. The comfort on board made the G4 suitable for long weekends, where you can travel distances of 300 nautical miles.
This Gunboat G4, Hull #1, is available for immediate sale from its dock in Fajardo, PR. The hulls and spars have recent new paint in the original colors.
