The outgoing governor of Osun, Rauf Aregbesola has said he did not earn
salaries throughout the eight years of his administration. Aregbesola
spoke during an interactive programme tagged ‘Ogbeni Till Day Break’ on
Saturday in Osogbo saying since it was the state that was feeding him,
fueling his cars and providing him with accomodation, there was no need
for him to be paid. He also said that he does not have any bank
account where he keeps money in any part of the world. ”I have not
collected salaries since I became the governor of the state. The state
feeds me, fuels my car and provides me accomodation. With all these, I
don’t need money.I have no money and bank account anywhere. I have no
house except the one I built before I became the governor. Anyone can go
out there to investigate if I have bank account”, he said. Aregbesola
who will be handing over to the governor-elect, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola
on November 27, said he would vacate the Government House by
Monday, November 19. He said the decision to leave the Government House
earlier, was to give his successor enough time to do necessary
renovations.The post 'I did not earn salary for eight years' - Outgoing Osun State governor, AregbesolaI did not earn salary for eight years' - Outgoing Osun State governor, Aregbesola
