Osun State governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, could not perform this year’s Eid-el-Kabir prayers at the Osogbo Eid prayer ground on Wednesday following arguments and pandemonium that ensued over the sitting position of the governor.

It was gathered that the immediate-past spokesperson for the Nigerian Senate, Ajibola Basiru, had arrived at the prayer ground located at Oke-Baale area in Osogbo, the state capital city and allegedly sat at the position reserved for the governor.

When Governor Adeleke arrived the prayer ground some minutes after, it was learnt that efforts at making Senator Basiru leave the front space for Adeleke proved abortive.

The situation became rancorous as some Muslim leaders quickly intervened to douse the tension so that the prayer for the Eid-el-Kabir festival could commence.

At that point, Governor Adeleke and his entourage left the prayer ground angrily and couldn’t participate in the religious event.

When contacted, the spokesperson of Governor Adeleke, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, who confirmed the incident, however, claimed that the governor escaped assassination attempt at the eid prayer ground.

Efforts to get the reaction of Senator Basiru, who represented Osun Central in the 9th Senate, proved abortive as at the time of filing this report.

Also, LEADERSHIP was unable to reach the Osun State Police Command for comment on the development.
