Osun Assembly threatens Chams Plc with disengagement

By Joseph Akanbi

The State of Osun House of Assembly has threatened the disengagement of the services of Chams Plc, a provider of integrated identity management and payments transactional systems for the Government of Osun State.

The Speaker of the State Assembly, Rt. Hon. Timothy Owoeye, made this known at Tuesday’s plenary of the 7th Assembly.

Owoeye expressed displeasure of the House of Assembly with Chams Plc for refusing to furnish the Assembly with the details of its activities with the state.

He held that the House had written to the organization requesting for the detailed report of its dealing with the state for the fiscal year.

In his words, “It is quite disheartening that Chams Plc has failed to turn in the report of the company’s activities with the state despite several letters forwarded to the organization by this honourable House.

“We are hereby handling down our last warning to Chams as we might be wielding the big stick should the company failed to do the needful this time around.

“Should Chams feel to big, we as a House of Assembly will not hesitate to recommend that the state government disengage the services of the firm”. The Speaker stressed.
