Osun State Governor Adegboyega Oyetola has directed the cancellation of the proposed foreign trip by local government chairmen to attend a workshop.
This directive was contained in a press statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Adeniyi Adesina late on Sunday.
The proposed trip has generated criticism from the residents of the state who alleged the government of planning to squander the State fund on unnecessary trip to Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
According to Adesina, “The governor said although it is desirable to continue to expose government officials to capacity building, the time is not auspicious for this trip, which was approved in September 2018.
The governor assures public officers in the state that they will continue to be given the benefit of training at the appropriate time as the financial situation of the state permits.
