Exerpts:
AlimoshoTv: For the records, may we know your name please?
Adekunle: I’m barrister Adekunle Sulaimon Adegunle.
AlimoshoTv: It is no doubt, there is a crisis rocking the Alimosho – APC – suprsingly, a new twist crept in lately. It was alleged that, Alhaji Abdullah Enilolobo berates Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and placed Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola above him for the 2023 Presidential Election. As an ally of Enilolobo, what was your reaction when the news broke?
Adekunle: Thank you for coming around. Like every human, as a loyal party man, and an ally of Enilolobo, I felt disturbed and sad at first, that is human and natural. I read the piece for close to five times but I concluded within me immediately – this is a fabricated story and well ochestrated plans to bring this man down. Even before I put calls through to our boss and other few allies of his, I told myself 2023 game has started but not on a good note. How can he say such against Asiwaju? it is nothing but a lie, he can’t stoop so low.
AlimoshoTv: You are sounding too confident on this. Do you spend your 24hrs with Enilolobo to have been this sure he did not say it, what if jokingly?
Adekunle: Smile! What a question to spur more debates? It will interest you that, I’m not not just a party person but we are more of a family. We have even stayed together for years and I know how he thinks, bahaves and speaks. Enilolobo is not a loose talker both privately or publicly. My brothers, he can’t say such and he will never say it. I do not know if you know how he becomes a leader today in Alimosho’ politcs? It is by the approval of Jagaban. How do I mean, if any recommendations from Ogbeni Aregbesola is not sanctioned by Asiwaju, such recommendations becomes null and void, that is the message.
AlimoshoTv: But it is normal you speak this way considering your relationship with him. What can you make of that…?
Adekunle: No. I’m being sincere and objective. He did not and can never say such. It is an attempt to rubbish his name and that of Aregbesola. You know all this did not start today. There are so many out there who does not just like the relationship between Aregbesola and Asiwaju and they would stop at nothing to ensure there is friction but I know the truth shall wins the ‘battle’.
Infact, our leader (Enilolobo) started a movement for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 2023 Presidential race before any other person in Alimosho. His team has long appointed foot soldiers for this mission in which I’m one of them. So, disregard the propaganda.
AlimoshoTv: Our observations shows Alimosho Federal Constituency is solely united on an agenda which is BAT 2023 but disagrees on so many. Do you have anything to say about this?
Adekunle: Well, like I said in our previous engagement, there is no crisis in Alimosho APC. All that is happening is a family affair that would be resolved at the appropriate time in which effort are ongoing to bring everybody together as one. I’m happy you said we all agree on an agenda which is BAT 2023, and it is this same BAT that would call all his children together soon. So my brothers, Enilolobo has paid his dues in this game, even beyond Lagos State and the paramount thing on his mind now is seeing Asiwaju becoming the President come 2023. Thanks.
AlimoshoTv: Thanks for your time.
Adekunle: My pleasure.
