The death of Davido’s uncle is affecting his father- Gov. Aregbesola observes
By Rita Chioma,
The Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has said Davido’ father Dr. Deji Adeleke may be suffering poor mental health because of the death of his brother, Senator Isiaka Adeleke.
Aregbesola said this in Ede yesterday at the campaign venue of the candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the Osun West Senatorial District by-election holding on Saturday.
The governor’s vituperation was in reaction to allegation that he owed Deji Adeleke money.
But Aregbesola said he did not borrow any money from Deji at anytime, saying it was the Adelekes that had been collecting money from him.
He said, “Deji Adeleke is a business man, he is not a politician but it is like his brother’s death has made him run mad.” (O dabi pe iku egbon e ti da lori ru). It is a lie that I borrowed money from Deji.
It is to the glory of God that they got the Certificate of Occupancy of their university from our government.
Why didn’t those who are their new friends give them C of O of that university?
If Deji Adeleke had so much money, why did he beg me to waive the payable tax of his university? Why couldn’t he just pay? I am bold enough to say this over and over again, because I have never sought assistance from any member of the Adeleke family, even during the lifetime of Senator Isiaka Adeleke.
Nothing of such occurred. My relationship with the late Adeleke was cordial and beyond politics because we had known each other even before Osun politics, because our residences were adjacent to each other in Lagos State.”
He said political office was not by inheritance, saying if it was so, Bola Ige family would have been ruling the state, in reference to Ademola Adeleke, the younger brother of the late Isiaka Adeleke, who wants to replace him at the senate.
