Face your criminal charges and stop sounding like a broken record, Ogun APC tells Adebutu, PDP

Face your criminal charges and stop sounding like a broken record, Ogun APC tells Adebutu, PDP

 

 

 

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State has advised the defeated governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr Ladi Adebutu, “to be man enough to face the criminal charges preferred against him by the Federal Government and stop sounding like a broken record.”

 

 

 

Reacting to a press conference addressed by Sikirulai Ogundele, the Ogun State Chairman of the PDP in Abeokuta on Monday, the APC in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Tunde Oladunjoye, said: “The PDP has nothing new to say. We have gone through the porous press statement and we cannot find anything more than the trite excuses, false claims and contradiction of the defeated candidate who has been on the run from the law since his invitation by the Police.”

 

 

 

 

The party added: “By now, even the media would be tired of the monotonous noise of these losers. A party, whose candidate has shunned Police invitation, fled the country and attempted to stop his trial, is unabashedly making false accusations and preemptively blackmailing the Police.

 

 

 

“When the Police invited the suspect, he fled abroad and told the Police he was going for medicals and his return could only be determined by his doctor. Then he told the public that his life was threatened and he has therefore fled to an unknown destination.

“A few weeks after, he approached the court and filed a motion stopping Police from ‘inviting’, ‘interviewing’ or ‘detaining’ him over allegations of votes-buying through the printing and distribution of 200,000 pieces of Verve ATM cards. He also wanted the court to ask the Police to defer the trial till after the conclusion of his petition at the Tribunal in Abeokuta.

“In the process of serial lies and contradictions, Adebutu has even lied under oath, committed perjury and he certainly has a date to keep with the law. For someone who kept boasting that his father’s money can do anything, the recent meaningless press conference is perhaps an indication that money has failed him in buying the law.”

The party advised the PDP in the state and its defeated governorship candidate to stop wasting their time on a lost battle and rather concentrate their energies and resources on defending themselves from the weighty charges hanging around their necks.
