Osun 2022: Tinubu offers Deji Adeleke $75.5m, asks him to drop his brother’s ambition.

                       Dr. Deji Adeleke

The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has contacted Dr. Deji Adeleke, the brother of the Osun State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ademola Adeleke over the July 16th gubernatorial election.

Tinubu asked Dr. Adeleke to stop spending on his brother’s ambition and ensure that his cousin, Alhaji Adegboyega Oyetola, the incumbent governor is returned for second term.

Tinubu who struck the deal before jetting out to Paris, the capital of France has already placed on the table a sum of $75.5million, an equivalent of N50billion and working document aimed at supporting his brother in the state governorship race coming up in 2026. 

                         Sen. Adeleke

An impeccable source told newsmen that in the meeting which took place at Banana Island in Lagos, Tinubu asked two friends of Dr. Adeleke, Alhaji Aliko Dangote and Mr. Femi Otedola to be part of the negotiation. 

He also brought into the picture, the governor of Kano State, Abdulahi Umar Ganduje while promising Dr. Adeleke that everything will be done to protect his business interests across the country. 

The APC presidential candidate who insisted Oyetola will win reelection was said to have told Dr. Adeleke that he wouldn’t mind if the Senatorial Candidate of APC in the Osun-East Mr. Amidu Tadese Raheem is replaced with his brother as an assurance that 2026 ticket is secured for him. 

Tinubu was quoted in the meeting as saying that “You are from the progressive family. Your father was one of us in the UPN and indeed a Senator when Baba Awolowo was here and we were together in the SDP back then with your late brother. I was a senator when Alhaji Isiaka Adeleke was the first governor in Osun state.

“When we needed second term for Rauf (Aregbesola) your family rendered all the support and we got it. And we offered him Senatorial ticket. We wouldn’t have had any problem with your late brother if not because of Rauf. The same Rauf and his people are causing problem for us in Osun. 

“My Chairman, the little I released is to cover some of your expenses. But you know my position in Osun state and I can’t afford to lose any state in the South-West. But we don’t need to go to war for that although I am a warrior. Tell Ademola that we will ensure we treat your people well”, he stated.

Dr Adeleke reportedly thanked Tinubu, telling him that as the Asiwaju Yoruba it will be difficult for him to say no to his request, while adding thay he will know how to handle the matter back at home because of the hundreds of supporters of his brother.

 O TI BURST! LOBATAN

HON. AKINLOYE, A MISIONARY AND VISIONARY LEADER It took me some time to really get my facts about Hon. Akinloye Simeon. It's been a concurrent point of discussion anytime i visited Gbongan, it's all about Hon. Akinloye. It took me a lot of time to conduct a study of this man called Man of the People. Hon. Akinloyes case made me belief that truely a leader is earned and not bought. You need to work hard, touch the life's of many before people can really call you their leader. Hon. Akinloye by my research has touched so many lives in Gbongan, Odeomu, Orile owu and it's suburbs. Hon. Akinloye is someone with great respect for both young and old. He is a man of the people.

BRING TINUBU AND AREGBESOLA TOGETHER. Comrade Samson charges Obas

 SOS. Osun State traditional rulers. BRING TINUBU AND AREGBESOLA TOGETHER.   Sequel to the lookout for President TINUBU'S visit to Osun State, I want to charge our traditional rulers to please as a matter of urgency call for amicable settlement of the crisis between the President and AREGBESOLA. Aregbesola is a name that can not be played with in Osun State as far as politics is concerned while the President is the architect of his success political story. Aregbe that I know has no problem whatsoever apologising to the President and it's also very easy for Tinubu to gladly welcome him back to his camp but there are some enemies that feed from their feud and will not want it settled. What we are currently witnessing in Osun is a case study. Who is Ajibola Bashir to refuse the governor have his sit at his rightful place if not for what is on ground. With peace among the two giants there will be utmost peace in Osun State. I have never read in the history of Osogbo for praye...
