The Osun State House of Assembly has warned commercial banks operating in the state against granting access to unauthorised signatories to allocations meant for local government areas.
The warning was part of the resolutions adopted by the Assembly at its sitting on Monday.
SPONSOR ADThe resolutions said: “Any attempt by unauthorised persons to access local government funds is unlawful, unconstitutional, and of no legal effect.
The two federal government agencies insisted that the claim of the release of the funds to the disputed chairmen and councillors whose tenure would expire on October 22 was at the realms of rumour.
Meanwhile, the court has fixed October 16 for ruling on the jurisdiction to hear the suit seeking to stop payment of Osun State local government funds to candidates elected under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
