In a petition submitted to the Speaker of the House by Stop Corruption Now Initiative and signed by its President, Barrister Olakunle Omisade, Osun was accused of collecting the said illicit money from contractors who were awarded various contracts bordering on the environment by the last administration of which the sum was paid upfront against established rules.
