Akure—THE opposition All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ondo State and the state government, yesterday, bickered over Governor Olusegun Mimiko’s request for a N7 billion loan to complete ongoing projects in the state.
Lawmakers in the state had approved the governor’s request to take the loan from Zenith Bank.
Surprisingly, opposition member of the Assembly, the Minority Leader, Mukaila Musa (Owo constituency 2), seconded the motion that the loan request be approved.
They cancelled the previous resolution dated August 4, which enabled the state government borrow N7 billion.
APC, through its Director of Media and Publicity, Steve Otaloro, said: “We would not have raised any eyebrow if the previous loans had been used to better the lot of Ondo State citizens.”
