ABEOKUTA— The leadership of Ogun State Park Management Services (OGSPAM), has debunked allegation by the chairman of Road Transport Employers Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), Alhaji Titilayo Akibu popularly known as Efele that its chairman, Alhaji Akeem-Bodunrin-Iyeru is planning to assassinate him.
The statement signed by trio of Alhaji Lukmon Ajuwon (Vice Chairman 1), Adisa Gadafi (Vice Chairman 2) and Gbenga Ajayi (member board of trustee) said it’s chairman is a law abiding citizen that knows its onions and will not involve in anything that will trauncate the peace Ogun state is enjoying under the administration of Gov. Dapo Abiodun.
Recalled that RTEAN in a press release on Friday had alleged Iyeru of planning to assassinate the RTEAN boss and also attack its members in Park and Garages across Ogun state this week.
“We are surprised that the Ogun state chapter of RTEAN could level such grievous allegation against our chairman, Alhaji Iyeru who is a father to Efele and other transport union leaders in the State.
“OGSPAM and RTEAN are not in anyway into any rivalry, our operation is one week off, one week on. By our record, it will be the turn of OGSPAM to collect tax on behalf of Ogun state government next week and not RTEAN. We don’t know what Efele-led RTEAN stand to gain in raising false alarm.
“We have also been informed of rumours that Alhaji Iyeru attacked Alhaji Efele and few others at the annual Itori day last week. This statement is not true. None of our members attacked anyone at the event. We only accompanied our amiable governor, Dapo Abiodun to the event.
“Finally, we urge the police and other security agencies to demand pictorial/video evidence (s) from Alhaji Efele. If he can produce any it will help the police in their investigation.
“Alhaji Iyeru has been working with transport union leaders in the state since the inception of the administration of Gov. Abiodun in peace and harmony. On no circumstance will he do anything that will threaten the existing peace in Ogun state.
“We commend our performing governor, Gov. Abiodun for repositioning Ogun state. His administration has brought massive development to Ogun state. As we approach the 2023 election we pray Allah grant him and other APC candidates victory at the poll, ” the statement read.
