Senator Adelere Oriolowo has debunked allegations that he illegally took possession of items belonging to the Osun State Government.
Oriolowo, who is the Senator representing Osun West Senatorial District, described the allegations as a blatant falsehood, a naked display of recklessness, sacrilegious dereliction of truth and unjustifiable character assassination.
While denying the allegations in Iwo on Monday, the Senator also demanded the State government to apologise in written form and also to pay five hundred million Naira as compensation for the unquantifiable damage done to his name and integrity.
Track News recalls that the Asset Review Committee headed by Bashiru Tokunbo Salam had in a report indicated that Senator Adeleke Oriolowo was in custody of 130G Motor Grader (005132-A321), D6 Bulldozer (OS130-A32), Electric Transformer Feeder Board Panel and Soil Compactor Machine (OS137- A32).
The panel, which was set up by Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, also demanded that the Senator return the said equipment to the State government or face sanctions.
Oriolowo, who maintained the allegation has caused so much damage to his name, reputation and legacy stated that, “since the publication, many well- meaning people within and outside the shores of Nigeria have continuously reached out to me for clarification and solidarity
