Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress on Sunday demanded the probe of Mr. Kazeem Akinleye, the Chief of Staff to the state governor, Ademola Adeleke, over alleged involvement in contract fraud.

The APC, in a statement by its spokesperson, Mr. Kola Olabisi, urged the governor to hand over Akinleye to the Code of Conduct Bureau for probe for allegedly using his office to corner a N297M Tertiary Education Trust Fund contract belonging to the University of Osun, to his company, Akinsas Interbiz Limited.

Olabisi emphasized that the allegation is weighty enough to warrant immediate investigation and action.

Reacting to the allegations, Governor Adeleke's spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, stated that Akinleye had resigned from the company before assuming office and had no involvement in the contract dealings.

The situation continues to generate discussions across the state, with both parties holding firm to their positions.
