A Group, Integrity Vanguard, has advised the Governorship Candidate of African Democratic Congress(ADC), Biyi Otegbeye to desist from spreading falsehood against the civil servants to malign their characters and painted them in bad light to Governor Dapo Abiodun.
Penpushing reports that the group made this declaration in a statement signed by its secretary, Duro Thomas, made available to journalists on Thursday, while dismissing a sponsored media report to cause rift between the workers and the Governor, that the former had resolved not to vote for the latter in the forthcoming Governorship election.
The group describing the news as fake, said the publication was comedy taken too far, pointing out that it is amazing that a failed and desperate politicians would hide behind disreputable online blogs to purvey falsehood against a performing Governor, pointing out that like all mercantile outfits thriving on falsehood, innuendo and hearsay, the blog gave itself away when it claimed that the dissatisfied Ogun State workers had resolved to vote for Biyi Otegbeye of African Democratic Congress (ADC) who it said had given them a clear plan to solve salary and pensions problems in Ogun State
Penpushing further reports that Thomas said checks on the ministries referenced by the said blog in its hatchet job against the Governor showed that the names of the purported civil servants speaking out against the Governor were entirely fictitious.
“Contrary to the falsehood by Jokotola McCarthy, the Eagles Times reporter, assuming that even the reporter’s name is real, there is no Liadi Salami occupying the post of Director in Ogun, and neither is there any Mrs Victoria Adams at the payroll of the Ministry of Finance. It is sufficiently clear that the Eagles Times story is a fabrication by a cash-and-carry blogger working for political desperadoes who thrive on misinforming the populace” he emphasized.
“It is interesting that the fictitious civil servants cited by Eagles Times concocted fiction against Governor Abiodun by claiming that he is owing workers 27 months deductions in 3 years with no clear plan to settle them, and that 97 percent of Ogun workers, the same Ogun workers that have already endorsed the governor’s second term bi, gave a not- satisfied rating!”, the statement reads
“If Mr. Otegbeye really wants to be Governor, he would not have endorsed fake news meant to take out a performing Governor. In case he does not know, Ogun workers are decent, forward-looking individuals who can never be deceived by political fraudsters whose stock in trade is fake news anchored by corrupt bloggers”,he stated
