‘No ₦11bn Was Looted in Osun,’ Commissioner Responds to EFCC Claims

The Osun State Government has denied allegations that **₦11 billion** was looted from the state’s coffers, with a commissioner responding to claims linked to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

CDA News Nigeria reports that the commissioner described the allegation as false and misleading, insisting that no such amount was stolen from the state treasury. The official maintained that the state government has managed public funds in accordance with due process and financial regulations.

CDA News gathered from the report that the commissioner urged the public to disregard what he described as unfounded claims, stressing that the government remains committed to transparency, accountability, and prudent financial management.

The response follows growing public interest in reports surrounding financial transactions involving the Osun State Government. While the EFCC has continued its investigations into alleged financial improprieties, the state government insists that the allegation of a missing ₦11 billion is without factual basis.

The commissioner also called for restraint in public commentary, urging all parties to allow the appropriate legal and investigative processes to run their course before drawing conclusions.

The exchange has added a new dimension to the ongoing debate over financial accountability in Osun State, with stakeholders awaiting further official clarification.
