Our Surveillance Helicopter Expensive To Repair – Oyetola

Osun State Governor Adegboyega Oyetola has announced that the state’s surveillance helicopter is now grounded and undergoing mechanical repairs.

Governor Oyetola made this disclosure while participating in the BBC Yoruba gubernatorial debate in Osogbo on Thursday.

The governor, who noted that the helicopter was undergoing technical overhaul, added that the State government’s difficulty was the sum that would be spent on its maintenance.

“The helicopter owned by Osun State for security surveillance is undergoing repair but the challenge we have is that the amount we will use to repair it can buy new one, so we are in the dilemma to take a decision on this,” he said.

The Osun State Government had under the administration of Rauf Aregbesola purchased the said helicopter with N500,000.000.00 for the purpose of tackling the insecurity in the State.

The helicopter purchase did not go without generating controversy across the State, as some people alleged that the helicopter was being put to personal use by the then governor and members of his family.

Some others were of the opinion that the helicopter had been sold immediately after the tenure of Rauf Aregbesola.
