Sunday Adeyemo, well known as Sunday Igboho, has hit back at Sen. Babafemi Ojudu, saying the Presidential Adviser lied in a published piece about him a day earlier.
Ojudu, who is the Special Adviser on Political Matters to President Muhammadu Buhari, had published on his Facebook page on Monday, had alleged that opposition politicians contracted Igboho to disrupt the 2009 Rerun Governorship Election in Ekiti State. Ojudu had claimed he and a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, met with Igboho to shelve the plan and the latter agreed to stay off the election.
But speaking with journalists during a briefing at his residence in Ibadan on Tuesday following a fire incident at one his buildings in the Soka area of the state, Igboho said he had no dealing with Ojudu, adding that all the President’s aide said were lies.
He said, “I have been hearing reports about a man called Femi Ojudu. I don’t know this man. He said the late Chief Adedibu contracted me in 2009 and we all know that Adedibu died in 2008. I think the man should undergo a mental test because the late Chief Adedibu did not train me for any job and I was not close to the late Adedibu.
“I have a relationship with my father, Senator Rasheed Ladoja, and I have never betrayed him in the years I was his follower.
“I don’t know Femi Ojodu and I didn’t have any business with him. All what he said are lies.”
Igboho also said no politician bankrolled him to issue and enforce a vacation order to the Fulani herdsmen accused of perpetrating crimes ranging from kidnappings, killings, rape to invasion of farmlands with their cattle in Igangan, Ibarapa Local Government Area of Oyo State.
Igboho, who said he was moved by the sufferings of the people of the town, lamented that politicians have begun to politicise his intervention.
