FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RE: AKINFOLARIN RECEIVED $1M TO STEP DOWN FOR GOV. AIYEDATIWA
The attention of the Mayowa Akinfolarin Campaign Organization has been drawn to another fictitious news making the rounds that our principal, Rt. Hon. Mayowa Akinfolarin, has received a humongous amount of money from HE Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the governor of Ondo State.
The organization would normally ignore these concocted lies by the media henchmen of Mr. Governor, who is desperately harvesting all opportunities to increase his chances and redeem his image amongst party faithful and Ondo State people. However, we emphatically debunk the news that Akinfolarin has traded his aspiration for money or in cahoot with Aiyedatiwa.
For the sake of clarity, Rt. Hon. Mayowa Akinfolarin has not spoken to, seen or interacted in any form with Governor Aiyedatiwa in the past one week.
Rt. Hon. Mayowa Akinfolarin has invested his time and funds, mobilized support from friends, families and networks, reached out to the members of the All Progressive Congress(APC) across the 203 wards in the state and committed all available resources to clinching the party’s ticket in Ondo State come Saturday. Those spreading these falsehoods and planting negative stories about Akinfolarin on blogs and pages of newspapers are only grasping at the last straw, after all indicators have confirmed party stakeholders, leaders and members, both home and abroad, have rejected Aiyedatiwa.
It is very irresponsible and uncharitable that such lies would be circulated against Akinfolarin to disrupt his good plans for the people and put in confusion his teeming supporters across the eighteen local government area of Ondo State.
We, therefore, urge our mobilizers and supporters to remain on the field as we go into the primary this Saturday. This is God’s own project and it shall be completed.
Oluwagbenga Ajongbolo,
Spokesperson, Mayowa Akinfolarin Campaign Organization.
