APC New Media Questions Missing 1.1 Billion Naira Allocated for Edo Health Centers

In a recent press release, the APC New Media Directorate has raised serious concerns about the alleged mismanagement of funds allocated for health care projects in Edo State. According to the release, Governor Godwin Obaseki’s tenure is increasingly characterized by mismanagement and scandal, with a particular focus on the 1.1 billion Naira budgeted this year for establishing health care centers across all 18 local government areas in the state.

The APC New Media Directorate claims that despite the substantial allocation, there has been no visible progress or new health facilities, leaving the state with unfulfilled promises. The release highlights a troubling pattern of financial mismanagement, suggesting that Obaseki’s administration has a history of diverting funds intended for public welfare for personal and political gain.

The press release points out that Obaseki’s failure to appropriately manage federal palliative rice—repackaging it for campaign purposes instead of distributing it to those in need—is indicative of a broader issue. The APC New Media argues that this pattern of behavior suggests a willingness to exploit state resources for personal advantage, rather than addressing critical public needs.

The APC New Media Directorate’s statement urges the people of Edo State to demand answers regarding the missing 1.1 billion Naira and questions the whereabouts of these crucial funds. The release calls for accountability and transparency, emphasizing the need for leadership that prioritizes the well-being of the state’s citizens over personal and political interests.
