‘I am hale and hearty’ – Ernest Shonekan breaks silence

 

Taiwo Adeoluwa, secretary to the Ogun state government, has described as a “lie from the pit of hell”, the reports that Ernest Shonekan, former head of interim national government, is dead.

Adeoluwa debunked the rumour on Tuesday evening.

He said Ibikunle Amosun, governor of the state, has spoken with Shonekan who reportedly told the governor that he is hale and hearty.

Tributes have been pouring in for Shonekan on social media based on the reports.

Shonekan succeeded ex-Military President Ibrahim Babangida after his administration refused to hand over power to MKO Abiola, acclaimed winner of the June 12 1993 presidential election
