Reacting to the development, the Director of Communications of the Akeredolu Campaign Platform, Soji Alakuro, berated Oke for allegedly harbouring armed thugs to terrorise innocent citizens in order to precipitate violence before, during and after the election
The supporters were arrested with dangerous weapons such as pump action guns, machetes and a camera
Reacting to Oke’s claim in a statement signed by the late Adefarati’s son, Gboyega Adefarati, the scions of the two political giants cautioned Oke against dropping the names of their patriarchs, stressing that the AD’s governorship candidate and their fathers had nothing in common in political orientation and moral principle

Aworele said: “Although, there is a pending suit before a Federal High Court in Akure, which I do not want to pre-empt, but as the national legal adviser of AD, I will challenge Oke’s eligibility to contest on the platform of our party in court anytime from now
