The Osun State Government has urged people of the state to ignore rumour of a purported decision to pull down Oranmiyan House, a political office in the state capital, Osogbo used by loyalists of former Governor Rauf Aregbesola.

The government insisted that the administration of Governor Adegboyega Oyetola is committed to building and improving on what it inherited and transforming the fortunes of the state for good.

This reaction, followed allegations making the rounds that Oyetola took a decision with his cabinet members at a meeting of the State Executive Council to revoke the certificate of occupancy of the Oranmiyan House, and subsequently demolish it.

In a statement released by the Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, Mrs Funke Egbemode, yesterday, Osun government described the allegation as desperate falsehood, aimed at fomenting trouble.

The statement read in part: “The misinformation making the rounds about Governor Adegboyega Oyetola sitting in council to discuss plans to demolish the Oranmiyan House at the State Executive Council is both untrue and wicked.
