Oyo Assembly Explains N300bn Makinde's Loan, Says Saki West Lawmaker Least Active Member
... Says All Lawmakers Were Notified About Emergency Sitting
The Oyo State House of Assembly has issued a strongly worded rebuttal to the baseless claims made by Hon. Ibrahim Shittu, member representing Saki West State Constituency, over the recent emergency plenary session which he falsely alleged was used to secretly approve a N300 billion loan request from the Executive without proper notification to members.
In a statement jointly signed by the Majority Leader, Hon. Sanjo Adedoyin and the Chairman, House Committee on Information, Media, Public Affairs and ICT, Hon. Waheed Akintayo (Ilumoka), the Assembly described Hon. Shittu’s claims as not only misleading but a reflection of his complete disconnect from legislative responsibilities.
The statement clarified that the emergency plenary held on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, was duly and officially notified on the Assembly’s general platform.
