Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has challenged the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, to explain why he directed the freezing of the Osun State Government’s accounts.

Adeleke described the move as an illegality that was taken without any court order and declared that the action would not stand. He accused the EFCC of acting on the orders of Gboyega Oyetola, the APC candidate, over an election his candidate cannot win. The governor has instructed his Attorney General to challenge the action at the Federal High Court.

Key Points:

The EFCC froze the Osun accounts without a court order, the governor argues.
Adeleke accuses the EFCC of acting on political orders from the APC candidate.
The governor has directed his Attorney General to file a legal challenge.
The account freeze could disrupt government operations ahead of the August 15 election.
Adeleke insists the EFCC has no legal powers to freeze a state government’s account.

The legal challenge will determine whether the account freeze stands, and the outcome could significantly impact the Osun gubernatorial election.
