Ojesina expressed concern that “there are no cabinet members to make decisions and conduct day-to-day running of government.”
Abiodun had only appointed Secretary to the State Government and seven aides, more than one month after he was sworn in for a second term.
Abiodun had also not appointed an official spokesperson for his government.
The SDP governorship candidate, in a statement issued on Monday, alleged that the governor has crippled governance in the state through his style of leadership.
Ojesina however, called on the governor to urgently address the poor waste management system, bad roads, and unemployment to alleviate the sufferings of the people.
He said “The current state of governance in Ogun state is unprecedented and unconstitutional.
“Ogun State is currently being run by a sole Administrator. There are no cabinet members to make decisions and conduct day to day running of government.
“It is preposterous to give this responsibility to Special Advisers to the Governor. Special Advisers are not statutory positions but are chosen by the governor without any screening and clearance by the House of Assembly as stipulated by law.
“Special Advisers however only do the bidding of the governor as the name implies, that is why their title is Special Adviser to the governor.
“This step ignores due process, transparency, and accountability a veritable tool for sincere and ethical governance.
“Without executive council resolutions, funds cannot and must not be allocated and provided for agencies of government, ministries, and parastatals to perform their daily duties, which include capital and recurrent expenditures.
“Complaints are on the rise daily by Ogun residents about the pain and suffering they are subjected to daily”.
Several attempts to get the state government’s reaction to the allegations failed as the Secretary to the State Government, Tokunbo Talabi had not responded to the message sent to him.
Several phone calls put to his mobile phone were not answered.
