N20m request: Osun reacts to letter purportedly written by Oluwo

The Osun State Government has linked to the mischief makers, the circulation of a letter circulating on the social media, purportedly from the palace of the Oluwo of Iwo land, Oba Abdulrasheed Adewale Akanbi, requesting for the sum of N20million from Governor Adegboyega Oyetola to finance his proposed marriage to the daughter of the Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero.

Consequently, the State has implored the residents to ignore all insinuations targeted at maligning the governor and government, saying it could see through the thin veneer of those who out of desperation will do anythingto get the attention of Osun people.

“We know they are running out of oxygen, but we will not descend to their level” said the State’s Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, Funke Egbemode in a press statement.

The State Government said it was aware that Oluwo himself has denied writing the letter and as a government, it is important to stop those making negative insinuations in their tracks

Egbemode, alleged that the fresh attempt by mischief makers to bring the governor and the government on a collision course with the citizens did not come as a surprise especially as the state draws closer to its gubernatorial primaries and election, hitting that “the community of sadists are increasing the tempo if their shameless propaganda machine”.

Still, Egbemode declared that the scheming “is another dead-on-arrival plot”.

The statement read in part: “For starters, it is an established fact that this is a government that has put the welfare of its citizens ahead of personal or group interests. It is also established that Governor Adegboyega Oyetola is a prudent manager of resources, who is focused on the development of Osun and everything that translates to public good.

“Specifically, the people of Iwoland are happy with this government for looking in their direction after years of neglect and they eloquently expressed their pleasure with the governor when he visited Iwo Federal Constituency last week.  Of course,  we knew the unprecedented crowd that welcomed the governor would give the sadists sleepless nights but this resort to blackmail is low, even for them.

“These mischief makers have come up empty again and all their attempts will come to nothing. We will not  be disturbed or distracted by the noise of political miscreants whose only job is to grab their phones, get on social media every morning to cause bad blood”.
