The All Progressives Congress, APC consensus candidate in Ijebu North, Constituency II, Oduniyi Adelaja has debunked claims linking him with the dreaded Badoo cultists.

In a statement signed by the Ogun House of Assembly hopeful, he said the statement made by the group named ‘Concerned Indigenes of Ijebu North (diaspora)’ is nothing but a malicious one, made by faceless group, who are being sponsored in proxy.

Oduniyi Adelaja described the report as one being sponsored by his opponent, who has lost the people’s favour in the face of the consensus agreement. He said the aforementioned issue linking him with the Badoo terrorists, has no relationship with neither his person nor his hotel.

The lawmaker in embryo disclosed that the ousted terrorists, who have been terrorizing people around Ikorodu were linked with some hotels around Ikorodu. He disclosed that some reputable hoteliers around Ikorodu were just invited and advised to be sensitive to their environment, in case the terrorists patronize their hotels and were told to report such cases to the Police.

“My attention has been drawn to the statement by the faceless group, with fictitious names and no address. The group allegedly linked me with some terrorists that have been ousted by the Inspector general of Police Tactical Team. There is no doubt, this is the handwork of my political opponent. The terrorists have been arrested and convicted. I have been vindicated and I have no relationship with the terrorists. These allegations were made by sponsored fictitious group with no valid address or valid identity. We are on the look-out for the people behind this, the law would take its cause on the defamation of character. The case has been reported to the law enforcement authority and I believe they will investigate and bring persons behind this to book.” Oduniyi Adelaja added.

Adelaja however challenge anybody with evidence against him to hit the public space with such evidence. He described the allegations watery and lacks substance.

Oduniyi Adelaja urged his supporters to be calm and determined in the mission to attain victory in his aspiration to represent Ijebu North, Constituency II at the Ogun State House of Assembly come 2019. He further implored his fans and loyalists to ignore rumours, false accusations and allegations that are targeted at pulling down his political aspirations.

Alleged Corruption : El-Rufai denies allegations, vow to swear on Quran….

A former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has asserted that his entry into politics was driven solely by a desire to serve the people, not to amass wealth or siphon public funds.

 

El-Rufai made this declaration on Tuesday during a Hausa program aired on Freedom Radio, Kaduna.

 

Speaking candidly, the former governor dismissed allegations of financial misconduct during his administration, maintaining that he was already financially content before assuming office.

 

The Kaduna State House of Assembly had earlier indicted El-Rufai’s administration for the misappropriation of over N423 billion during his eight-year tenure.

 

 

However, El-Rufai and his associates have categorically denied the accusations, labeling them as politically motivated.

 

“I did not join politics to steal money or enrich myself. I was satisfied with what I had before becoming governor,” El-Rufai stated, adding that he is ready to swear on the Quran to prove his innocence if other former governors and current leaders do the same.

 

 

“I have always prayed for guidance in all I do, and I strive not to betray the trust of the people. Whenever the former governors of Kaduna State and other leaders are ready to swear with the Quran that they never misappropriated public funds, I will join them. I have no fear because I know I never took money that belonged to the people,” he said.

 

 

The former governor expressed dismay over the allegations, saying his administration has been accused without any clear evidence of where the money went missing or who took it.

 

He further claimed that his allies were being targeted and invited by the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission as part of a smear campaign against him.

 

“I have left everything to God’s judgment. I have prayed and will remain silent on the issue. I have instructed my lawyers to take legal action against those tarnishing my name, but for now, I’m focused on my activities like reading and writing,” he said.

 

 

El-Rufai emphasised that service to the people continues even after leaving office, stating, “You don’t need to hold a position in government to serve. We are still working with like-minded individuals who genuinely want to serve the people, not those seeking to enrich themselves.”

 

Looking ahead, El-Rufai revealed that he intends to return to politics in 2027 after completing his studies, remarking, “There is no retirement in politics. God willing, we will return and continue serving the people.”
