Oyo State governor, Engineer Seyi Makinde, said on Wednesday that his administration was ready to retrieve billions of the state’s funds looted by officials of the previous administration.
The governor, who made the vow while kick-starting the construction of the 21km Ajia-Airport-New Ife Expressway in Ajia town, said his administration was ready to put measures in place to retrieve all looted funds to develop the state’s infrastructure.
The 21-kilometre Airport- Ajia-New Ife Express Road, with spur to Amuloko, was awarded to Messrs Peculiar Ultimate Concerns Ltd, at a total cost of N8,520,919,776.41.
According to the governor, unlike the previous government, which, he said, preoccupied itself with how to corner the state’s funds on a daily basis, his administration would drastically reduce the infrastructure deficit in the state within the shortest possible time.
He added that it’s only in doing so that the state can be positioned on the path of economic growth.
