Oba Falore used the opportunity to emphasize that the present Governor of the State, Mr Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji should learn from Engineer Segun Adebayo Oni on how he was able to govern Ekiti State during his own time with accountability and transparency without misappropriating public funds or involved in State Financial mess.

He went on to described Engineer Segun Adebayo Oni as the only Governor Ekiti State ever had in history who has never been accused of siphoning or stealing public funds or amassing State Resources or converting them to his own personal properties.
