The Adebutu's Ota Killing:ive Demonstrated My Law Abiding Nature. by impact231(m): 4:54am On Jul 07, 2017 |
THE ADEBUTU'S OTA KILLING: I'VE DEMONSTRATED MY LAW ABIDING NATURE. I've today been inundated with calls by journalists seeking clarifications over falsified narratives of the unfortunate but avoidable killing of an innocent citizen by Ladi Adebutu's security men at Ota yesterday. Most importantly, I sincerely commiserate with the family of the deceased over the painfully irreplaceable loss. It's nauseating that this dastardly act could be traceable to the conduct of those that seek to govern. May God grant the family that fortitude to bear the aching loss resulting from unguided exuberance by people of unearned eminence.. It's now public knowledge that on 29th June, my gubernatorial declaration at Ota was threatened by some suspected thugs. Despite the annoying provocation and attempt at eroding my fundamental rights, I endured. I refused to be pushed by unguided reflex to embrace chaos and breach of the peace despite the presence of my private police escorts; by promptly alerting the Nigerian police high command. It's on record and must be appreciated that the police responded swiftly and arrested what could have resulted, like this Adebutu's case, into multiple life losses and injuries. As is to be expected of law abiding citizens and importantly that of one given to subordination to the rule of law; I made formal report and fully assisted and supported police investigations leading to the arraignment of the suspects in court. I have thus fulfilled my responsibility as a good citizen by bringing presumed offenders within the arms of the law rather than encouraging crime under the pretences of politics. I'm aware that an accused is presumed innocent until otherwise proved in the courts. Consequently, I was certain that those accused would be admitted to bail which the court expectedly did. Normally, this issue shouldn't have involved Ladi Adebutu save for myopic political exploitation. Furthermore, it's very difficult for people with honour and integrity to flaunt giving assistance and/or backing to people accused of life threatening misdemeanours. When unavoidable, such assistance is extended discretely or through proxies. For Ladi Adebutu to turn the flaunting of such dishonourable gesture into life termination is highly unbecoming. Ridiculously, to now be linking such to me and my allies over a phantom assassination attempt is most unfortunate. This makes it imperative for the public to searchlight the characters that should be allowed to get into power and generally, positions of public authority administration. Since "the proficiency of a tool emanates from the mender"; I believe the conduct of Ladi's private securities is a function of his mien as their master, as it's him they would seek to impress. His dispositions to civil conducts prior to that incident, would invariably have reflected on the public carriage of those he controls. I have absolutely nothing to do; remotely or covertly, with the Adebutu's Ota killing. I deservedly, as of consequence, seek to be excused from this infamous story. One can only hope that this unfortunate occurrence would endear Ladi and his cohorts to a better and sober comportment, at least in public. Unlike as is the case for financial inheritance, inheriting good virtues have conditionality of self inputs. I'm not desperate by nature and this gubernatorial aspiration of mine is no exception. Mine is genuinely an offer to serve. Being a self made man with reliance on the grace of God and His endowments, my aspiration is predicated on qualifying capabilities for the job and not conceived in self aggradisement to latch on any inheritance. I bear responsibilities and know the odds of reckless indulgences. PSS. 1 Share
