The concerned citizens also alleged that another commissioner who authorised multiple payments and awards among key parastatals under his ministry is cited as having left the country. He was reputed to have awarded and paid contractors even before they secured award letters.

The group added that the head of a counterpart funded agency of government with multi-billion naira resources has also sneaked out of Osogbo. His friends said his destination is a European country.

Lastly, the concerned citizens said the Chairman of a notorious commission who blew almost one billion naira of government fund on an illegal programme is reported to be out of the country already. They said “Rather than face the indictment from fund sharing that is already within public domain, the lawyer has transited to a European country”.
