Ondo State Acting Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has frozen the accounts of the 18 Local Government Areas and 33 Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in the state.
The Acting Governor made this known in a letter to the local councils. The letter said: “Distinguished HOLGAs, Your Excellency the Acting Governor of Ondo State had directed that all spending/ expenditure from local government account should be suspended, no signing of cheques, no change of signatories, n o withdrawal of any sort until further directive.
“Please adhere strictly to instruction and be guided.”
Earlier this week, Aiyedatiwa resumed as the acting governor of the state following a letter to the House of Assembly by Governor Rotimi Akeredolu in which he said he would be travelling to Germany for medical reasons.
