The Ogun government has debunked reports indicating that it invited Sunday Adeyemo, a.k.a Sunday Igboho, to assist in curbing crimes in the state.

In a statement issued in Abeokuta, the State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Abdulwaheed Odusile, said the report was a miscontruance of an interview granted by the state governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun to his special adviser on public communication, Remmy Hazzan.

 

“The interview was twisted to achieve sensational effects.

 

“In the interview, Hazzan had said that the state government, in its usual inclusive approach to governance, would continue to work with all the stakeholders, both within and outside the state to ensure security of lives and property.

 

“Sadly, however, this statement was disingenuously twisted to mean that the state had invited Mr. Adeyemo (Igboho) to help curb insecurity.

 

“This is regrettable and totally misleading.

 

“The Dapo Abiodun-led Administration, since inception, has been known to be inclusive in its approach, collaborating and engaging with a wide range of stakeholders including security issues.

 

“This has resulted in the achievement of the enviable status and recognition we enjoy as the most secured state in the country.
