The attention of the media team to the Deputy Governorship Candidate of the People's Democractic Party PDP in Ogun State, Hon. Adekunle Abdulkabir Akinlade, has been drawn to the vituperation of a confused interloper in person of senator Adeola Olamilekan, who in his frustration after the emergence of the Ota High Chief, Oluwo Ganiu Dada as the PDP Ogun West Senatorial candidate threw all decency to the dogs and resulted to name calling and shameful lies.

It must be noted for the records that as a true son of Ogun West extraction, Hon Adekunle Abdulkabir Akinlade only expressed his view that our “brother” from Ekiti attempt to buy his way into the Yewa linage was dead on arrival and an insult to their collective heritage as Ogun West indigenes. Rather than react to those simple and unambiguous clarifications, the undistinguished senator (pls note the “s” in small letter) because he is definitely small in character, chose to result to unfounded lies.

senator Yayi had alleged in his infamous and baseless opinion that Hon. Adekunle Akinlade has criminal charges in the UK thus will be arrested upon if he visits the UK. He also claimed that the name change from TAJU to Abdulkabir was intended to cover his criminal past. Well, unlike “Shawn Michael” and “Sulaiman”, Hon. Adekunle Abdulkabir Akinlade simply exercised his Constitutional right and backed same with sworn Affidavits which was published in the national dailies.

As the picture above will confirm, Hon. Adekunle Abdulkabir Akinlade was in the UK in March 2022 where he visited his brother and fellow Ogun State indigene, the Nigerian Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Alh. Sarafa Tunji Isola at his official residence. For the records, Hon. Akinlade is a resident of the United Kingdom.

That said, senator Adeola Solomon’s outburst clearly proves that he lacks depth, the comportment to handle himself under pressure and intelligence to relate in a civil manner when the tide is against him, vis-à-vis his Senatorial ambition in Ogun West. Our candid advise is that it is not too late for him to count his losses and exit Ogun West because it will not be a tea party as claimed by those deceiving him.

senator Olamilekan Solomon aka Yayi should at least respect the courage and boldness of Triple A for stating clearly why he considered and accepted the Deputy Governorship ticket of PDP. As a man of integrity, Hon. Akinlade stands for something at all times. In this instance, “stopping Prince Dapo Abiodun’s 2nd term bid and senator Olamilekan Solomon incursion into Ogun West to soil our honor. That is a MAN!!!

The struggle ahead in the next couple of months is clear, good against evil, truth against lies, uprightness against deceit. Hon. Adekunle Abdulkabir Akinlade obviously stands for good, truth and uprightness for his people. As he said despite all indications to contrary, “Lekan could not have authored this”. In spite of the aspersion cast at his person, he still believes that there is a good side of senator Olamilekan Solomon character. I doubt it though!
