The Peoples' Democratic Party flag-bearer for the House of Representatives, Oyo Federal Constituency in the 2015 general elections, Hon. Arowosaye Saheed, this morning took to his Facebook page to blast the Honorable member representing Oyo Federal Constituency, Hon. (Prince) Adeyemi Akeem for making what he termed a 'malicious claim'.
Quoting Hon. Saheed, he wrote;
'My attention has been drawn to a malicious claim by Prince Adeyemi
Akeem Adeniyi Obasegun, the member representing Oyo Federal constituency
in the House of Representatives alleging that the ticket of the
People's Democratic Party (PDP) for the Oyo Federal constituency in the
2015 general elections which I validly contested and won was held in
trust for him pending his defection to the party which he further
claimed he rejected.
Ordinarily, I would not have responded to
Prince Adeyemi's baseless claims but I deemed it necessary to correct
that misinformation by the honourable member and to set the records
straight. It's on record that Prince Adeyemi won the All Progressive
Congress (APC) long before I contested and was returned as the winner of
the PDP ticket. At no point was any agreement reached for me to cede
the ticket to Prince Adeyemi should the event he returned to the PDP
which he claimed. I urge the good people of Oyo Federal constituency and
other members of the public to disregard Prince Adeyemi's deliberate
misrepresentation of facts. His claims can only be a figment of his
imagination,a failed attempt to salvage his troubled political career in
his trouble party.'
As at the time of this report, efforts are being made to reach the concerned Honorable member to hear his side of the story.
