Alao Akala

He was on admission at the hospital for 10 days.

Adedibu, who addressed journalists at his Ibadan residence on Monday, said that he had also deferred his overseas medical check-up till after the Appeal Court’s decision on the election of Alao-Akala.

Adedibu, who walked round his Molete premises unaided, said he called the press conference to show his teeming supporters who had been trooping to his house to ascertain his state of health that he was well.

He said, “I only want to show myself to you that there is nothing happening to me and I am hale and hearty.

“The hospital I went to (in Lagos), I even refused entirely to go there but the governor (Akala) persuaded me that I have to go and rest since the judgment was yet to be delivered.

“I said it is better for me to be at home than to attend to a thousand people everyday in Lagos.

“While in Lagos, the governor himself cannot do without seeing me everyday, Obasanjo will come there, Bode George, all these leaders are coming there everyday.

“They said I should be on bed for one month just to rest. I want to tell you this is me.”

Adedibu described as untrue, newspaper reports that he was quarelling with Senator Teslim Folarin, over the medical bill he incurred at the highbrow Lagos hospital.

He said, “They (newspapers) reported that I was even fighting with Senator Folarin for not paying my N2m hospital bill. The point is that we have three senators representing Oyo State.

“The three senators are from my bedroom, all of them. Why do I need to be particular on Senator Folatrin to pay? Why not the other two senators?

“Before I even agreed to travel to Lagos for the bed rest, Akala had sent his Deputy Chief of Staff, Mr. Razaq Gbadegesin, to go to Lagos and pay over N5m as deposit.

“Even the money I collected as gifts while I was coming back to Ibadan was more than the N2m you are talking about.

“Senator Folarin visits me at the hospital every morning from Abuja, he will leave in the night to Abuja and come again the next morning. They now said we have argument over N2m. What is N2m?”

Who is adedibu? anybody know him?

Name in Full- Adedibu Lamidi

A ruthless politician in Ibadan. Feared by many, and opposed by the godly. This man maybe in his 80s but he proclaimed openly that he will never quit politics even till his grave. Adedibu aka Baba Omolete is known for violence, corruption and tyranny over the Governors he puts to power; especially through rigging. Adedibu can be outspoken by many as simply "above the law".

During the Obasanjo administration, Adedibu was involved in a plot to outstrip the then Governor of Oyo State- Ladoja. He successful handed power to his deputy who betrayed the former Governor because of power and money. Throughout the violence, the president either pretended to be unaware or was supportive of the scheme Adedibu plotted. The claim then was that the former Governor failed in his duties (which is very unclear till date) and the legistators about 17 out of 30 voted him out.

Adedibu may not be properly educated but his fierce and arrogant manner that includes but may not be limited to this is the use of thugs called Area boys to terriorize the public. In Molete, during the last election, the machines used by INEC a electoral body in Nigeria, were placed in his compound. Anyone that had the right to vote in his constituency had to accept the PDP candiate- Alao Akala(who is now the Governor) or he faces the beating of his life. However, if you vote for PDP- N200 is guaranteed . Adedibu is also reported to be fetish.

Although he may have survived his illness, it is believed that he assumes he lives forever. Any man who supports this man either by donating his/her "taxes" to him or simply in a conversation should know that God is watching and God never likes corruptors!

@hey poster.Why open two threads of the same?

na wa 4 my country nigeria!
so a senator has abandoned his duties and prefers to keep vigil at the bedside of a useless old bully man. how do we justify the actions of the gov and senator? na wa o which way nigeria

Frizy:

Waooo! Frizy, what a comprehensive lecture. I think I should call this Adedibu 101. This should be a compulsory course for all political students.

LOL. I can imagine this being a course also. Darn, i got 2.1 in Adedibuism this year, even after all my hard work on the "practical" exam, i guess i have to take Adedibu 101 again. LOL.

**smiles**
This shouldn't be a course because anyone taking it including the lecturer(not me sha) may place his life at a high risk because of Adedibu's PDP sons in the university.

I will be quite willing to borrow money, even with hundred percent interest to pay for his coffin instead.

How could a normal human being faulted this much and still has the temerity to admit it in public, nay, boasting that he has done it? No morality among a people.

God save our country.
Gov paid N5m. . .
3 senators from his bedroom.
donations of N2m
lastly,the old man said "what is N2m "?
what wud N2m do for a struggling student?
what wud N2 do for the jobless graduate?
how far wud N2M go in the lives of babies dying daily of infant dieases in our hospitals?
what is N2m to a poor wretched farmer seeking a loan to improve his yields?
indeed,Adedibu,what is N2 m?
otito tokwa gi n'ike

As long as the Gov paid out of his pocket,no problem.

As long as the Gov paid out of his pocket,no problem.

and where is the governors pocket?
his very personal pocket indeed.

Fellow Nairalanders this is to inform you that that man called Adedibu is dead now. Only to meet his Lord with great disappointment, where is the money he was boasting of one month ago while we're discussing his arrogance? I knew as I know now that God is ever watchful.

5MILLION NAIRA THAT WOULD HAVE PUT A BIG SMILE ON THE FACES OF 5MILLION SUFFERING NIGERIANS

Instead the idiot of a Governor threw it down the well via Adedibu's mouth!

Basically the money is wasted becoz the man has kicked the bucket, the bucket that he has been eluding and dogding!
