Oyo state governor, Oluseyi Makinde has tackled the administration of President Bola Tinubu on the claims that he received any portion of the ₦570 billion hardship grant purportedly disbursed by the Federal Government.

Makinde emphasised that these funds were not part of the alleged hardship grant but were reimbursements for pre-existing investments.

Tinubu, in his address to the nation had said his administration had disbursed more than ₦570bn to the 36 states to expand livelihood support to their citizens.

However, Makinde responded to the claims in a newsletter dated August 2024 and shared via his official X handle.

He said,” The Federal Government did not give Oyo State any money. We were reimbursed funds—₦5.98 billion initially and ₦822 million subsequently—that we had already invested in the three result areas of NG-CARES, including inputs distribution to smallholder farmers within our State.”
