Akoko progressive movement condemns Ilaje Youth allegations against Hon. Wumi Isaac, Says Finance commissioner working for Ondo State Progress
The president of Akoko progressive movement has condemned the recent publication by Comrade Igbalaye Enikanselu and a group of Ilaje youths, seeking to drag the name of Hon. Omowunmi Isaac, Ondo State’s Commissioner for Finance, into baseless controversy, is nothing but a deliberate attempt to distract the Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa-led administration from its commitment to the development of Ondo State.
Mr Kayode Ajigboni in a statement released to newsmen described the Ilaje youths claim
as an unfortunate conclusion, that instead of embracing progress and good governance, some individuals have chosen to fabricate lies and resort to blackmail in a desperate bid to derail the administration’s vision.
As stakeholders in the progress of our dear state, myself and the entire members of Akoko progressive movement finds it necessary to set the record straight: Hon. Omowunmi Isaac was appointed to do a job, and she must not be persecuted for upholding accountability and transparency.
It is evident that certain individuals, seeking to convert the state’s treasury into their personal purse, are frustrated by her unwavering commitment to fiscal responsibility.
Governance is about ensuring that public funds serve the people, not enriching a select few. The Ilaje youths and their sponsors must understand that Governor Aiyedatiwa was not elected to play “Father Christmas” with state resources.
It is worth emphasizing that Governor Aiyedatiwa remains fully in charge of his administration and has demonstrated exceptional leadership in managing the affairs of the state.
His focus on good governance, infrastructural development, youth empowerment, and economic growth has been evident in his policy directions. Rather than pandering to sectional interests, the Governor has chosen to prioritize the well-being of the entire state, ensuring that every decision taken aligns with the greater good of Ondo people.
We must also informed the good people of Ondo State that, Hon. Omowunmi Isaac is a dedicated public servant and our sister from our senatorial district who has shown an unwavering commitment to prudent financial management.
Her efforts to ensure judicious use of state resources must be commended, not condemned at any level
The attempt to tarnish her reputation is nothing but a politically motivated smear campaign designed by those who are bitter about her refusal to facilitate reckless spending.
I challenge the Ilaje youths to desist from being used as political tools by self-serving individuals who are more interested in lobbying for personal appointments and favors rather than the development of Ondo State.
If truly the Ilaje youths love Governor Aiyedatiwa and Ondo State as claimed, they should channel their energy into supporting policies that promote sustainable development, rather than fabricating baseless accusations.
Lastly, we urge the good people of Ondo State to disregard the misleading publication aimed at causing unnecessary confusion and disunity.
