Economic Hardships: Why Increased Funding Isn’t Improving Standard of Living in Ondo State

By Akinyose Ajibade

Despite a rise in the Federal allocations to various states of federation, we have seen some of the State Governors rolling out palliative to cushion the effect of Subsidy remover and make life more meaningful for the people of their various state. But the same can not be said of Ondo State under the leadership of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwaz the people of Ondo haven’t seen any improvement in their life, due to lack of transparency and accountability by the state Governor, whose only priority is the coming Governorhsip election.

The state has been in the news for wrong reasons, the Government has been accused of corruption as funds allocated to projects that can have impact on the people has developed wing, in fact the Governor in my own opinion, have no plan for the state, not now, not anytime soon.

The Ondo state Government, under Governor Aiyedatiwa lack a clear vision and efficiency implementation strategy on how to apply the huge allocation been giving to the state monthly.

While, I will always be an agent of peace, I will use this opportunity to urge the people of Ondo State, to ask question from their Governor as we deserve to know where our Governor is keeping the palliative been given to him by the Federal Government. I will also urge the federal Government to call the Governor to order, he should fave Governance and stop showing desperation over the coming Governorhsip election.
It’s sad and unfortunate that, the Governor that has not leave up to expectations, is sponsoring thugs to waylaid the hungry people of sunshine state a day, they are happy to welcome their President to the state.
