The question, therefore is, how was N7 billion naira expended?

     International passports which are said  cost the Nigeria Immigration Service N4,900, per unit  are sold to Nigerians at N8,750.

Governor Rauf Aregbesola’s Alleged Plans To Seceded

The Federal Government has mobilized  security agencies in the country to put  ‘put an eye’ on Osun State governor, Engineer Rauf Aregbesola. The 24-hour surveillance was initiated  over an intelligence report generated by the Department of State Security (DSS) which accused the governor of  planning to seced from the Federal Republic  n of Nigeria using an  army of Islamic jihadists which he created.
    The security report addressed to the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. O.A Ihejirika  stated that “there are indications that Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State is nursing the ambition of islamizing the state. Already, he has taken control of the Jama’atu Ta’awunil Muslimeen Society of Nigeria (TA’AWUN) spearheading the use of hijab in all public schools in the state.
   TA’AWUN was founded in 1994 at Iwo by one Dawood IMRAN-MOLAASAN(Sheikh), has also spread its tentacles to Kwara, Lagos, Sokoto and Kaduna states”
 The reported further stated that presently, “members of the group serve as bodyguards to the governor and are making frantic efforts to dislodge conventional security operatives from the Government HouseTheir unprofessional conduct is a source of embarrassment to well-meaning indigenes of the state, especially at public functions attended by the governor.”
      To pursue its agenda, the report alleged that “the state government is planning to introduce a general uniform for all primary and secondary schools in the state that will be acceptable to the group, not minding the feelings of the Christian population. The governor has also changed the name of the state from ‘Osun State’ to ‘The State of Osun’ which is at variance with the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution.”
