Submit Yourself To Security Agencies, Ogun APC Replies Adebutu

Ogun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) asked the candidate of Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) in the March 18, 2023 governorship election, Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu, to do the most honourable thing by submitting himself to security agencies over the allegations of electoral fraud levelled against him.

The party also  advised Adebutu to stop giving false hope to his followers, insisting that  his alleged offences  during the poll would be pursued to a logical conclusion in the competent court of justice.

In a reaction to a statement in the media credited to Adebutu, where he raised issues concerning the state gubernatorial election, the party said it was laced with intent to cover up certain atrocities and change the real narrative.

Adebutu had claimed Senator Gbenga Daniel ‘and others’ involvement in the electoral misdeeds.

The party’s state assistant publicity,  Olusola Ogunsanya Blessed, who issued the statement to newsmen, said going by the tune of the Adebutu’s statement, Daniel must have been embarrassed by the exposition of their alleged shenanigans and conspiracy during the last general elections.

The federal government has already filed charges of vote-buying, money laundering and other electoral offences against Adebutu and others before the Federal High Court ND Ogun State High Court in Abeokuta.

Olusola said, “While Adebutu, in his impoverished piece dripping with vile abuse, failed woefully to defend the fact that Gbenga Daniel, against good conscience, worked for him and his party, the PDP, and betrayed the party that gave him a ticket and even sponsored him to emerge as a senator, he tried to be clever by half by denying the allegation of bribery levelled against the former Ogun governor with overwhelming evidence.

“For every discerning political watcher, it is crystal clear that Adebutu and Daniel were seriously embarrassed by the exposition of their atrocities in the public glare, and so the bribery, criminal conspiracy and money laundering suspect currently hibernating in a foreign country resorted to defending the indefensible and further exposing the astounding degree of moral decadence and perfidy that defines their relationship.

“It is even more childish for the PDP guber candidate to ignorantly mention his father and Gbenga Daniel as benefactors of Governor Dapo Abiodun, astutely elevating gossip and clueless innuendos as tools of public engagement.

“On the issue of performance and reelection of Governor Dapo Abiodun, it is surprising that a man like Oladipupo Adebutu …could accuse any government of non-performance and corruption, when he lacks the intellectual stamina to do a thorough assessment of government policies and activities”.

The statement further accused Adebutu of stooping so low to be involved in alleged electoral malpractices and money laundering and brazenly comprised the electoral process.

It added that Governor Dapo Abiodun had the people solidly behind him and had since settled for governance, urging Adebutu to summon courage and come back home to face justice.
