The Ondo State Internal Revenue Service (ODIRS) has issued a response to a misleading report circulating online titled, “ODIRS HR Head, Jemilat Yusuf, Nabbed by Anti-Graft Agency Over Alleged ₦900 Million Fraud.”
ODIRS management firmly asserts that this report is entirely false and misleading, representing a deliberate attempt to tarnish the reputation of the Service and its dedicated officials.
To clarify:
No staff member of ODIRS, including Mrs. Jemilat Yusuf, the Head of Human Resources, has been arrested, detained, or investigated by any anti-graft agency for financial misconduct.
The allegation of a ₦900 million fraud is completely unfounded and lacks any basis in fact or financial records of the Service.
ODIRS prides itself on maintaining a transparent and accountable financial management system, which is subject to regular audits and strict compliance with the financial regulations of the Ondo State Government.
The Service operates under a clearly defined structure where staff appointments and promotions adhere to due process, merit, and civil service guidelines.
We urge the public to disregard this fabricated report entirely. This represents a calculated attempt by malicious individuals to undermine the ongoing reforms and significant progress being made under the leadership of Acting Chairman Mr. Bayo Rojugbokan, FCTI, FCA.
ODIRS is committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity, professionalism, and service excellence in revenue administration for the sustainable development of Ondo State.
Management is actively taking steps to identify the source of this false report and will pursue legal action against any individuals or platforms involved in disseminating such damaging misinformation.
Signed:
Management, Ondo State Internal Revenue Service (ODIRS)
