In a strongly-worded statement released on Monday, September 11, 2023, Tajudeen Lawal, the state APC chairman, accused Governor Adeleke’s government of failing to convene council meetings for approximately two months since assuming office, raising concerns about the state’s governance.
“It is strange for a democratic state government to refuse to hold executive meetings for about two months,” Lawal asserted. “The laissez-faire approach of Governor Adeleke to governance is a confirmation that he is only attracted to the glamour of the office without having any tangible program for the development of the state. Adeleke has been appropriating funds for the running of the state without holding the state executive meetings.”
Furthermore, the APC chairman expressed dismay over the relocation of the state Government House and Governor’s Office to the governor’s sister’s residence in Ede, where Governor Adeleke has resided for the past ten months since his inauguration.
