OGUN GOOD GOVERNANCE DEMANDS VISIBLE, EVIDENCE ON ALL THE IMPLEMENTED PROJECTS IN OGUN STATE

●●●●● SAYS WHERE ARE THE PROJECTS ON THE GROUND

The Ogun Good Governance Forum (OGGF) has asked the ogun state government and the federal government to show the good people of Ogun State where the implemented and approved projects in the budget for Ogun State located too.

In a realese made available by the Public Relations Officer of Ogun Good Governance Forum (OGGF), Oluwakemi Ogunbiyi said citizens of ogun state must be vigilant. Ahead of 2027, that the state must not be turned into a budget ATM and our people must not allow fraudulent candidates to buy their future with borrowed money that never reaches them.

For accountability, we bring out four specific projects from the 2026 Appropriation Act that are marked "ONGOING" on paper, but with nothing to show on site.

1. THE ISAGA-ORILE DUPLICATION - ₦2.4 BILLION

ERGP20270579

ERGP30241483

Project: Establishment of Farm Estate for Wealth Creation at Isaga-Orile in Ogun State

Status: ONGOING

Allocation: ₦1,400,000,000

Same project description, slight change in wording, two different codes, two different amounts, total ₦2.4 billion, both marked ONGOING. Go to Isaga-Orile today. Speak to farmers, community leaders and youths. Ask them what ₦2.4 billion has built. There is nothing to show.

2. THE IBARA COMPREHENSIVE HIGH SCHOOL ROAD THAT LEADS TO NOWHERE - ₦1.4 BILLION

ERGP12239798

Project: CONSTRUCTION OF IBARA COMPREHENSIVE HIGH SCHOOL ROAD TO ILEWO ROAD IN ABEOKUTA, OGUN STATE (LOT 1-4)

Agency: Nigerian Building and Road Research Institute, Lagos

Amount: ₦1,400,000,000

Status: ONGOING - 2026 Appropriation Act

There is no school called "Ibara Comprehensive High School" anywhere in Abeokuta. Which school is this ₦1.4 billion road leading to? The small link road beside Catholic Comprehensive High School that leads to Oke Ilewo is less than 3 minutes walk, used only by passersby and okada riders. No contractor, no equipment, no asphalt has been seen.

3. THE ₦1 BILLION SOLAR BOREHOLES

Project: Construction of Ten Solar Industrial Boreholes for Cooperative Farmers in Ogun State

Agency: FEDERAL CO-OPERATIVE COLLEGE - OJI RIVER

4. THE ₦3.22 BILLION SOLAR GRID

Agency: ENERGY COMMISSION OF NIGERIA

Budget Year: 2026 Appropriation Act

Page: 1331

Amount: ₦3,220,000,000

Prior to this release, we called on the Senate Committee Chairman on Appropriations to provide BOQs, contractor names, completion certificates, project locations, and pictorial evidence for verification. Till date, no response has been provided, and nothing has been seen on site, despite being marked ONGOING.

This is why we warn Ogun State citizens: Do not accept a press release as a project. Do not accept empowerment rice and sewing machines as governance. Demand evidence.

Nigeria's public debt is around ₦159 trillion. A significant part of federal spending is funded with debt that future taxpayers will repay. Accountability is not optional.

We therefore demand from all concerned Federal MDAs:

1. Where is the Farm Estate in Isaga-Orile for ₦2.4 billion?

2. Where is Ibara Comprehensive High School and its ₦1.4 billion road (LOT 1-4)?

3. Where are the Ten Solar Industrial Boreholes for ₦1 billion by Federal Co-operative College Oji River?

4. Where is the 2 Megawatts Solar Powered Grid for ₦3.22 billion by Energy Commission of Nigeria?

5. Release BOQs, contractors, locations, timelines and completion certificates.

We call on Civil Society Organizations, EFCC, ICPC, Bureau of Public Procurement and Auditor General of the Federation to investigate and provide public details on these projects.

To Ogun people: Open your eyes. Demand evidence, not slogans. The budget has spoken. Now show us the projects.

We hereby requires verifying that public funds match physical results, relying only on paperwork opens the door to corruption,  ghost projects, and wasted resources where we don't want our resources to be wasted in ogun state, said Ogunbiyi
