The Coordinator of Oodu’a People’s Congress in Oyo State, Rotimi Olumo, on Tuesday, said he was no longer having anything to do with the national coordinator of the group worldwide, Gani Adams, noting that he has no reason for being with a leader that doesn’t trust him.
It was gathered that the National Executive Council and the National Coordinating Council of the group, on Sunday, announced the replacement of Osun State coordinator of the group, Adedeji Aladesawe, with another chieftain, Adeyemi Aboderin for allegedly collecting N35 million from the President-elect, Bola Tinubu to mobilise support for him in the build-up to the last presidential election.
Olumo, while stating reasons for distancing himself from Adams, in a press briefing in Ibadan, said the national coordinator of the group also alleged him of collecting N35 million from Tinubu to mobilise support for him during the election.
He said he had decided to part ways with Adams over unsubstantiated claims, adding that he was accused alongside his Osun State counterpart that they collected money from Tinubu to mobilize support for him.
“Aare Adams used to be my good leader who I trusted so much, he used to be someone I could do anything for, but it was quite unfortunate that my trust for him was betrayed.
“I actually don’t have anything personal against him but there is no point being with a leader that doesn’t trust someone. This is so annoying and painful!
“Trust is so important in any relationship! This is one of the most sensitive important and sensitive decisions of my life.” He stated.
