Come back to face criminal charges in Court, Ogun APC Challenges Adebutu
Come back to face criminal charges in Court, Ogun APC Challenges Adebutu
– The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State has called on the defeated People’s Democratic Party’s candidate in the last governorship election, Ladi Adebutu, to return to Nigeria and face criminal charges filed against him instead of turning himself to a “big bundle of contradictions”.
In a statement signed by the State Assistant Publicity Secretary of APC, Ogunsanya Olusola Blessed, the party begged Ladi Adebutu to “please come back home and face his criminal charges because he cannot run forever.
The statement read further: “We do not wish to join issues with Adebutu on his baseless petition against the duly elected Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun, but only to advise him to return home to face pending criminal charges against him and his cohorts. “Medical check-up” cannot be forever, just as he cannot run away forever from the law.
“At one point, the fugitive said his life “was being threatened”, at another point his lawyers, Ehi Uwaifoh and Co, wrote on May 2, 2023 to the police acknowledging police invitation to Adebutu to interact with the police same May 2, 2023. Surprisingly, as at yesterday, in some publications, the bundle of contradictions said he “was never invited by the police”
Ijo Uwaifoh and Co in its letter dated May 2, 2023 and addressed to the police wrote that: “we act for and represent Hon Ladi Adebutu and it’s on his instruction and behalf that we write you as follows: Our Client was informed on Saturday April 29, 2023 that he has a letter of invitation from your office inviting him for May 2, 2023.
Prior to the delivery of your letter, our client has left the country for his medicals and his return date is dependent on his doctors”
That is the same Adebutu, now at large, attempting to mislead the public via their pliable media smatterings that he was never invited by the police. He is nothing but a fugitive running away from the law. Ogun State would have become a laughing stock if an incompetent character like Adebutu had become Governor!
“In the reply he filed in response to our pleadings at the Tribunal, he falsely claimed he has never been invited for questioning by any law enforcement agency. Yet he is in court against the AGF and others and in the processes filed, he exhibited a letter of invitation! This is even enough to convict him for perjury!
“We call on the PDP to demonstrate obedience to the laws of the land, by persuading its defeated candidate, Ladi Adebutu, to come back home and face his criminal trial and stop blabbing from self-imposed exile.”
Rather than blame others for his travails, he should be manly enough to take advantage of the opportunity offered to him by the law to answer to the charges. He alone decided, on the 27th of February to apply to Zenith Bank for the issuance of the 200,000 cards. He alone, beginning from the 6th of March 2023, started to take delivery of the cards from his account officer. He alone, on the 16th and 17th of March 2023, on the eve of the Gubernatorial elections, decided to fund the 200,000 cards with the sum of 10,000 Naira each from his personal account at Zenith Bank! These were the same cards he distributed, through his agents, some of whom were arrested, to voters on Election Day! Neither Governor Dapo Abiodun nor the APC asked, aided or encouraged him to do any of these things. So why blame others now for his fool-hardiness?
APC as a law abiding party will use all possible legal means not only to defend the mandate given to His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun, by the good people of Ogun State, but will also ensure all those who flouted electoral laws are held accountable for their actions so as to serve as a deterrent to others who in the future might be tempted to tread the same ignoble path.”
Africa Set for Divine Visitation as SCOAN Holds Revival
Johannesburg, South Africa — South Africa is poised for a powerful wind of divine transformation as Johannesburg hosts the highly anticipated Holy Spirit Visitation with Pastor Evelyn Joshua. The event, set to take place on May 16 at the prestigious Expo Centre, is drawing thousands of attendees from across South Africa and beyond, each with a deep yearning for divine intervention, healing, and spiritual renewal.
Described by many as a life-changing opportunity for divine encounter, the event is being organized by The Synagogue, Church of All Nations (SCOAN), led by Pastor Evelyn Joshua, wife of the late Prophet T.B. Joshua. The revival has also been widely described as an avenue for divine restoration and supernatural transformation, resonating strongly with the faithful and spiritually curious alike.
Jan Matli, a Johannesburg resident, conveyed his strong belief in the impact the event will have. “We expect spiritual revival in the body of Christ as the Holy Spirit Visitation with Pastor Evelyn Joshua begins on the 16th of May. This revival will reveal God’s hidden power to destroy the deception that the children of God have been fed with. This visitation must bring total deliverance and transformation,” he told The SCOAN’s communications team.
Echoing this hope, Thato Mathibela, another resident, said, “I want to have an unforgettable encounter with God during this revival with Pastor Evelyn Joshua. I want to receive impartation and the baptism of the Holy Spirit.”
For many like Norah Dlomo, the event is not only about personal breakthrough but also about the spiritual welfare of families. “I want God to deliver and heal my family. I also want to grow spiritually with the guidance of our mother in the Lord, Pastor Evelyn Joshua,” she shared.
Among those looking forward to the revival is Abigail Fourie, who has a powerful testimony of past healing through The SCOAN. Delivered from a family curse during a visit to The SCOAN in Lagos, Nigeria, in 2006, she now seeks a deeper experience. “Since then, my life has been transformed. Now, I am expecting to be baptized by the Holy Spirit so that I can be all God has created me to be,” she said.
The event is attracting not only South Africans but also believers from across the continent. Anthony Victor, a Malawian residing in Johannesburg, shared his testimony of divine intervention. “My wife was barren but after ministering the Morning Water, which I received from a friend, she conceived and bore children for me. The God of Prophet T.B. Joshua is a miracle-working God. I am here to experience more of His blessings,” he said.
From the Democratic Republic of Congo, Patrick Isaka testified to the blessings he has already received through The SCOAN. “I have experienced a lot of positive changes through The SCOAN. I have witnessed many good things in my career as an infrastructure consultant. I am here to experience God and maintain the blessings I have received in the past,” he stated.
Among the most heartfelt expressions of hope came from Albert Ndhlovu, a South African resident who shared his personal struggles. “My life is messed up and I believe God will restore, renew and redeem me and my family during this revival with Pastor Evelyn Joshua,” he prayed.
As of the time of this report, the Gallagher Convention Centre, where attendees are registering for the event, is witnessing a massive influx of people. Crowds are arriving in their thousands, full of joy, hope, and expectation for a divine encounter that many believe will mark a turning point in their lives.
With the Holy Spirit Visitation set to commence on May 16, anticipation is mounting that Johannesburg will witness not just a gathering, but a genuine outpouring of the Holy Spirit that could ripple far beyond the city.
