Former governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola said he did not leave any debts for Gboyega Oyetola when he left office in 2018.
A statement credited to Bola Oyebamiji, the former Commissioner of Finance under the administration of the Immediate past governor, Gboyega Oyetola, claims Aregbesola left debts in Osun state.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Sola Fasure, Aregbesola said the two major loans he took while in office have been liquidated.
He claims the other loans have a long spam repayment term and the deductions are minimal so it will not infringe on the finances of the state.
Reacting to the alleged debt of N18 billion from a loan collected by Oyetola’s administration, the minister said the Accountant General or Finance Permanent Secretary would be able to give an account for it.
“I will suggest that they look at all the loans and get to the Accountant-General or the Permanent Secretary (Finance) would have better information because it is the Accountant-General that raised a memo based on the query of Governor Adeleke.

“He is the most knowledgeable about the loans by the state as the custodian of the account of the state. They should leave Aregbesola out of it,” he said.
Aregbesola asked the current state governor, Ademola Adeleke, and Oyetola to leave him out of their debts discussions and accusations.
