Way out of Osun economic crisis, by finance expert

•Akinsola

Deji Akinsola, a finance expert, reviews the economic situation in Osun State and suggests how it can get out of the economic crisis. He spoke with Basirat Buraimah. 
How did Osun State find itself in this financial mess?
I don’t think it is fair and it is not right to single Osun State out in the financial predicament enveloping the whole world.

It is a worldwide crisis. The financial meltdown is global. It cannot be felt equally though. In Nigeria, it will be unfair to single out Osun state to be in crisis and I know it is nationwide.

I know many states to be 23 months behind in salary payment. Almost every state is owing but then, when it comes to Osun, I think it is a peculiar case because of the giant strides that Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola came with in the first two years of his administration and it is that standard that people are using to measure him and that is why it appears that the impact is felt more in Osun.

“So many reasons why many Nigerian artists don’t last more that 2 years or after a few hits? Their poor personalities and horrible attitude.
“My manager contacted this artist 10 days ago. We spoke to his manager who happens to be his mum, asked for an interview and she referred us to some other person supposedly in charge of PR. We booked the appointment for the interview. This was 10 days ago or thereabout. The lady asked us to send an official email which we did right away with all details.
