After reading the rejoinder by Sunday Adedokun who claimed to be the Director of Media and Public Communication to Samuel Adebayo Adegbola, I burst into laughter.
The piece is not only misconceived and self defeating, it is a needless misrepresentation of facts.
Like Elders used to say, a drowning man will desperately cling to even a nylon of bread for a lifeline.
The rejoinder was occasioned by a story I wrote about the response of the office of the Attorney General of the Federation to a Petition written by the Olaribikusi Ruling House of Eruwa.
The Attorney General of the Federation had written to acknowledge the Petition written against Governor Seyi Makinde’s continued disobedience of series of layers of Courts in the case of the Eleruwa Stool, which in the face of the Law, is still vacant till as we speak.
He went further to say that he had forwarded the Petition to the Attorney General of Oyo state, who, he said is responsible for the enforcement of the Judgments in the Eleruwa matter.
My report specifically captured this position by the AG Federation and even, the letter from the office of the AGF was enclosed for public consumption.
I am surprised that an imaginary ‘ Eleruwa Palace ‘ would leave the office of the AG Federation and the Olaribikusi Ruling House and chose to jump on me for reporting the obvious.
The imaginary ‘ Palace ‘ didn’t deny the existence of the letter, but chose to wail louder than the bereaved.
The letter in question is not addressed to them but rather, it is a reply to the Petition by an aggrieved Ruling House.
The office of the Attorney General of Oyo state which is mentioned in the said letter have remained silent but some contemnors would want to pull the World down about it.
I am not surprised. There is always no peace for the wicked and usurpers.
Unfortunately, Adegbola can not be a Judge in his own case.
It is out of place for him and whatever ‘ Palace ‘ to affirm or reaffirm his status which is being challenged before a competent Court, saddled with the responsibilities to make such proclamations.
I don’t know when I claimed to be a Prince of Eruwa to the extent that the rabble rousers were dissipating unnecessary energy on such a topic.
However, I strongly disagree with the impostors that I am not a stakeholder in issues relating to the throne of the King of my town.
Unlike most of these clowns, I am a bonafide son of Eruwa.
My Father is not from some Compound in Igboora like most of them and if I may ask the Jesters, can there be a King without Subjects?
If a Subject is not a stakeholder, then who is?
My simple advice to them is to concentrate on the litigations against them in Court.
I will continue to report the truth even though the usurpers may continue to hit their heads on the walls.
Oh! I shouldn’t forget this, I think Adegbola should also be looking behind his shoulders because of the over #30 million Naira illegally paid to him by Makinde in 2019 and the Local Government vehicles illegally released to him.
There is no way he won’t face justice regarding those illegalities. It is just a matter of time.
Those who formed the barriers that are presently shielding him will also face justice at the appropriate time.
That, by the Grace of the one and only God Almighty, I can assure them.
The day of reckoning is not too far.
Sola Abegunde.
