“We are constrained to draw your attention to the fraudulent activities, stealing, mismanagement of funds and sharp practices which is a very serious misconduct and a punishable offence according to Public Service Rules (PSR) being perpetrated by a staff Mr Idowu Samuel Olaleye.
“The officer who is the Chief Accounting Officer of FMC Femstaff Concept and Femstaff Progressive CMS has criminally embezzled and defrauding the members to the tune of over Five Hundred Million Naira of their hard earned salary.
“However sir, we strongly believe that you will use your good office to carry out a thorough due diligence investigation into this allegations which is tantamount to serious embarrassment to this Hospital and Federal Government Institution under your Supervision as the Chairman of the Board of Management as such officer is not expected to hold any sensitive position which he’s currently a Divisional Head of Budget, Finance and Accounts Department of the hospital, hence the law is no respecter of anyone, no matter how influential or highly placed”, the petition reads
Meanwhile, in his reaction, Olaleye denied any wrong doings, stating that the petitioners were once beneficiaries of the scheme.
“Those who gave you this sham of a write up were once beneficiaries of the system they are working hard to pull down.
” I already have a case of criminal defamation against them before the Commissioner of Police, Ogun State Command. They think I can be gagged by putting this in the public domain.
“They’re jesters and I don’t perceive you as one. He who asserts must prove”, he said
