Gov Aiyedatiwa Distances Self From Barrister Omolegbon’s Ordeal

News Update

RE: BARR. WALE OMOLEGBON’S ORDEAL

The attention of the Governor of Ondo State has been drawn to the petition which attempts to bring Barrister Wale Omolegbon Odusola’s Facebook criticism to serious scrutiny and prosecution for cyberbullying by the police authority.

It is necessary to state unequivocally that Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa has no hand in it. The Governor did not commission anyone to petition the police against any citizen who criticises him or his administration.

The decision to tolerate the pains of serving the people has been entered into since the day the Governor chose to be a servant-leader.

In retrospect, was there anything anyone didn’t say about the Governor before this time? Did he ever frown at even the most insipid narrative? He was everything to many people and he never begrudged anyone.

It is instructive to state that the Governor has expressly declined any assistance in fighting for him or on his behalf. Governor Aiyedatiwa is a democrat who understands the importance of discordant views in a democracy. He has not and will not commission anyone to fight his battles for him.

Mr. Governor has, therefore, asked the office of the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice to take over the case instituted against Barrister Omolegbon and work towards dropping the charges.

Prince Ebenezer Adeniyan,
Chief Press Secretary to the Governor of Ondo State.
