OSOGBO \u2013 Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State\u00a0 weekend said despite the strident calls against the removal of oil subsidy, Nigerians should never contemplate the coming back of the military.<\/p>\n

Giving a keynote address at the opening of a retreat by The Companion, an Islamic Organisation of professionals at the Fountain University Osogbo, Osun State, the governor linked all the controversies trailing the proposed removal of oil subsidy to what he described as the lack of transparency in the process of managing the affairs of the country.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWe must demand for openness in government.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aregbesola wondered why a country like Nigeria cannot boast of a single functional refinery, noting that this had led the country to its economic woes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truth of the matter\u00a0\u00a0 is that we have so much mismanaged our affairs that there is really no wealth to distribute.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow do we explain the fact that a nation like Nigeria doesn\u2019t have a functional refinery,\u201d Aregbesola stated.<\/p>\n

Warning against inviting the military as part of Nigerians\u2019 frustrations on the economy, Aregbesola reminded that the military destroyed the economic, political and social lives of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
