By Mattew Adeleke

The students’ Union President of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Oyekan Ibukun Edward, Also known as Dr. IBK has made it known that he has written a letter to the Economic and financial Crime Commission (EFCC), to investigate the financial reports & dealings, on the controversial Purchase of the New students’ Union Bus.

He made this known at a Press briefing, held with him and some members of executives at the Students’ Union building some hours ago.

He also made clear the airing, on the issues surrounding the purchase of the bus by his administration at the press conference. The President said that he didn’t buy the bus for Executive use, but for transportation. Dr IBK, when speaking with the pressmen at the students Union building said ” the purchase of the bus is meant for easy transportation and that is why I have to buy a fine and moderate bus.”

The president also made it known that he purchased the bus for #2.5m and not #3m as said by some students. He said that he didn’t increase the price of the bus and is willing to give out the keys to anyone interested in knowing the actual price of the car to take it to the dealer and confirm it and if found worth less than the said price he would resign.

Mr President admitted his made in purchase of the bus but assured the students that a committee would be set up in purchase of the second bus in order for him not to repeat his mistakes.
