Osun State Accountant General quits Aregbesola Government

 

The Osun State Accountant General, Mr Alaba Kolawole, has resigned his appointment through a letter addressed to Governor Rauf Aregbesola.

Kolawole had notified Aregbesola in a letter of his intention to quit as Accountant General of the state starting from Monday, September 10.

He also informed all banks in the state of the development through another letter.

It was gathered that the Governor has earlier approved the extension of Kolawole’s service, whose last day in office was supposed to be July 31st, 2018.

There were reports that there was acrimony among top echelon in the Ministry of Finance, which forced the AG to resign his appointment.

He said some All Progressives Congress’ bigwigs, who are very close to the Governor have highjacked the control of campaign funds for the September 22 gubernatorial election, which the AG considered unethical, and an affront on his office.

Efforts to speak with the AG have, however, proved abortive, as his mobile line was switch off as at the time of filing this report.
