Oyo state, Ibadan - The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo state has cried out over what it described as an alleged monumental fraud, which the party claimed it discovered in the partial execution of the Ibadan Circular Road Project.
In a statement made available to Legit.ng on Wednesday, March 27, Oyo APC warned that the unabated corruption being perpetrated by the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) under the administration of Governor Seyi Makinde could plunge the state into irredeemable doom in the near future.
At the commissioning ceremony, which took place at Badeku Junction on Ife-Ibadan Express Road last Friday, Makinde announced that the Ibadan Circular Road Project was the largest investment in Oyo state in 50 years. He noted that the project had cost a whopping sum of N300 billion.

Anambra state governor, Professor Charles Soludo, was the special guest of honour at the event.
Reacting to the above assertion, via a statement issued on Wednesday by its publicity secretary, Olawale Sadare, Oyo APC queried Governor Makinde on the rationale behind his government redesigning the road project to occupy 425 metres.
Sadare noted that the ongoing indiscriminate demolition of properties of poor citizens was to serve the interest of the governor and his cronies.
"Gov. Makinde mis-appropriates scarce resources to the detriment of the welfare of the people. This has to stop." APC said.

The APC chieftain disclosed that if the steps are taken, it will assist the federal government better in meeting the demands of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and its counterpart, the Trade Union Congress(TUC), and avert the proposed planned strike.
Sadare, looking at the development from a different perspective, revealed that Tinubu can fix the nation's issues in five simple ways, and Nigerians will smile, and the economy will be revived.
