“In view of this, I came to submit my end-of-tenure assets declaration form
for the first term and declared assets for the beginning of the second tenure.”
“In the last four years, I am 12 percent poorer, because I have not really had the chance to look after my businesses. I have been looking after Oyo State business,” he posited.
