Osogbo, Osun state – Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun state has accused Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola of conniving with the Security Chiefs in the state to enforce a non-existing court order to return sacked local government chairmen to office.
Governor Adeleke said Oyetola’s move is against the dictate of the law.
As reported by Vanguard, the governor urged President Bola Tinubu to call Oyetola to order before he creates a crisis in the state.
Adeleke stated this while addressing journalists at the Government House, Osogbo, the state capital.
“I call on Mr. President, to instruct the National Security Adviser, and the Attorney General of the Federation, to personally verify the fact that the Court of Appeal judgement did not reinstate the sacked local government chairmen and councilors and the fact that, there is a subsisting judgement of Court that sacked the Chairmen and Councillors produced by the 2022 local government polls.
“It is unfortunate that the Osun state security chiefs are taking instructions from Mr Gboyega Oyetola just because he is the nephew of Mr. President.”
The governor said the people would not hesitate to protect themselves if Oyeola was not called to order.
“As much as we will do our best to maintain peace, we call on men and women of goodwill to intervene before it is too late.”
