Stop deceiving followers and honourably submit to security agencies. Ogun APC responses Adebutu

The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) candidate for governor on March 18th, Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu, was accused of electoral fraud, according to the Ogun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and it was deemed the most honourable for him to submit to security agencies.

The party urged Adebutu to cease giving his supporters false optimism and insisted that his alleged atrocities during the previous election would be investigated thoroughly and tried in the appropriate court of law to serve as a deterrence to others.

Ogun APC was responding to a statement in the media attributed to Adebutu, in which he highlighted concerns about the most recent gubernatorial election in the state, including the involvement of a former governor of the state, Gbenga Daniel, among others.

The party claimed in a statement provided to newsmen in Abeokuta, the state capital, and signed by the assistant publicity secretary of the party in the state, Olusola Ogunsanya Blessed, that the statement released by Adebutu was laced with an intent to conceal some atrocities and alter the truth.

The PDP chairman and Daniel must have been embarrassed by the exposure of their alleged shenanigans and plot during the last general election, the party asserted, going by the tone of Adebutu’s remark.

According to the statement, “While Adebutu, in his cognitively underdeveloped piece dripping with vile abuse, failed miserably to defend the fact that Gbenga Daniel worked for him and his party, the PDP, and betrayed the party that gave him a ticket and even sponsored him to become a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, he tried to be clever by half by denying the allegation of bribery levelled against the former Ogun Governor with overw

“For every astute political observer, it is crystal clear that Adebutu and Daniel were seriously embarrassed by the exposure 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.”Despite his age, Adebutu’s pattern of defence, in which he called Daniel “a very rich man in his own right,” clearly reveals how naive he is. His line of reasoning, which tragically defies careful analysis, is a mirror of his pretentious and false demeanour.

“It is even more impolite for the PDP guber candidate to carelessly identify his father and Gbenga Daniel as supporters of Governor Dapo Abiodun, deftly elevating beer hall rumours and foolish innuendos as means of interacting with the public.

“On the subject of performance and the reelection of Governor Dapo Abiodun, it is surprising that a man like Oladipupo Adebutu, who is well known for being utterly slothful and fatally afflicted with mental laziness, could accuse any government of non-performance and corruption, when he lacks the intellectual fortitude to conduct a thorough evaluation of government policies and activities,” the author writes.

The statement also charged Adebutu with shamelessly undermining the democratic process by allegedly engaging in money laundering and electoral malpractices.

Insisting Adebutu to muster the fortitude to return home to face justice, it went on to say that Governor Dapo Abiodun had the support of the people and had now settled into governing.

Adebutu’s discussion on the acceptability and popularity of Governor Dapo Abiodun is the most important subject he brings up in his essay. The crucial inquiry to pose to Adebutu is this: If, as he stated, Governor Dapo Abiodun was not well-liked and could not have won the election on March 18, why did Adebutu and his allies resort to widespread election cheating by working with Zenith Bank to issue 200,000 ATM verve credit cards with N10,000 preloaded on them?
