The Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr Ismail Omipidan, raised the alarm in a statement in Osogbo.

The statement read: “We are compelled to raise this alarm as an early warning sign of the clandestine schemes being put together by some unscrupulous elements to tarnish the image and reputation of the Governor, Government of Osun and to cause distractions.

“Government remains committed to delivering on its campaign promises and nothing will make it abandon that responsibility.”
