The governor has been facing public criticism over his inability to pay civil servants in the state for months.
Aregbesola stated this while speaking with State House correspondents after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari behind closed-doors at the Defence House in Abuja on Friday.
He said he was not happy the same way a head of a family would feel when he cannot meet the needs of his family members.
Aregbesola said those who want to be objective would readily admit that the Osun State of November 2010 when he assumed office and Osun of today are not the same.
The governor further explained that with the unexpected and sharp decline in revenue, his administration had a dislocation.
The result of that dislocation, he explained, is the sad experience.
The governor added, “Were it to be Osun alone, probably I would not have an excuse.
