The leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), on
Thursday alleged that the life of its Osun State governorship candidate,
Senator Ademola Adeleke is in danger.
“It may interest you to know that certain desperate elements
of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who are unsettled that they cannot stop
Senator Adeleke from retrieving his governorship mandate freely given to him by
the people of Osun state, are now viciously plotting to use all means to put
him out of circulation”, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola
Ologbondiyan said.
He disclosed that the party has become apprehensive about plots
to silence Senator Adeleke as a way to terminate his efforts to retrieve his
governorship mandate in the court.
Speaking further, the National Publicity Secretary said “part
of the plot is to frame and arrest the Principal of his school, Ede Muslim High
School, Ede, Mr. Kadili Adejare Abass, on trumped-up charges that Senator
Adeleke’s School testimonial was forged with the aim of using such fabrication
as a basis to smear and clamp down on Senator Adeleke”.
The PDP stated that on Wednesday, April 24, 2019, Mr. Abass,
the Principal of the Ede Muslim High School, as well as the wife of the
school’s Registrar, Mrs. Rofiyat Oladepo and her nine month-old baby were
arrested by the police.
“It is most unfortunate that the Nigeria Police will allow
certain elements within its ranks to yield themselves as tools in the hands of
the oppressive APC in their desperation to thwart the mandate of the people of
Osun state, which they freely gave to Senator Ademola Adeleke.
It is clear that there is no way a school principal, who
duly signed and issued a school testimonial under his own hand and position,
can be said to have ‘forged’ the same testimonial”, Ologbondiyan said.
The PDP called on the Inspector General of Police, Adamu
Mohammed to call his men to order on issues related to Senator Adeleke’s
determination to retrieve his governorship mandate.
