Immediate past Osun Governor Adegboyega Oyetola has claimed his administration left N14bn in the State coffers.

Oyetola said his government successfully paid N97 billion from the total debt inherited in 2018 when he assumed office.

He said his administration didn’t borrow a dime anywhere in the world to finance the economy of the State, saying he successfully kept faith with his electoral promises since the assumption of office.

Oyetola spoke in his farewell message to the people of the State, indicating the expiration of his first term in office, The Nation reported. He was sworn in on 27th November 2018 taking over from his predecessor, former Governor Rauf Aregbesola.

Oyetola said his administration has put Osun’s economy on a surer footing through the myriad people-centered and masses-focused projects timely and promptly implemented to make life worthwhile for the people of the State, Vanguard report added.

According to him, Osun under his watch has been stable economically as manifested in the astronomical increment in the GDP of the State since he assumed office.
