The President also instructed the anti-graft agency to discontinue all related actions connected to the freezing of the state’s accounts. However, he said the decision to freeze Osun State’s accounts at a time the state is preparing for its governorship election was ill-timed. “The timing is inauspicious because Osun State is only a few days away from its gubernatorial election,” the President said. The commission insisted that the action was taken to prevent the alleged looting of public funds and was not politically motivated despite the proximity of the governorship election. Tinubu’s intervention is expected to ease political tension in Osun, where the freezing of the state’s accounts had triggered controversy amid heightened political activities ahead of the governorship election.
