The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed allegations of a $20m fraud levelled against former Governor of that state, Adegboyega Oyetola, by the current Governor, Ademola Adeleke.
Osun APC Media Director, Kola Olabisi, said this to newsmen on Sunday, describing Adeleke’s petition as a politically motivated attempt to tarnish Oyetola’s reputation.
Olabisi accused Adekleke of using the fraud claim as a tool to settle political scores after failing to control the state’s local government councils.
However, Adekleke maintained that he would not be intimidated or blackmailed into silence, urging those implicated in the petition to prepare to defend themselves.
