The All Progressives Congress, APC, Ondo State chapter has berated the state Governor, Olusegun Mimiko for failing to present 2016 budget after almost a month into the year.
The party, through a statement issued by its Director of Media and Publicity, Steve Otaloro, said the delay in the presentation of the 2016 Appropriation Bill by the governor might worsen the standard of living of people of the state.
Otaloro said, “We feel strongly that with the delay, the level of corrupt practices in this government might increase owing to the late implementation of capital votes.
“Surely capital projects will suffer and when this happens, the standard of living will fall because capital projects are what impact on the standard of living of the people.
