Mrs Ajimobi speaks on Arrest Rummors,why i go to uk frequently

e of Oyo State Governor, Mrs FLorence Ajimobi yesterday attributed the rumour of her arrest to the handiwork of mischief makers who are latching on to dirty politics to tarnish her reputation, which she has kept as the wife of a politician in her marriage of over 30 years.
Speaking on arrival from London Wednesday morning at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos aboard a Virgin Atlantic Airways aircraft , which landed at 6.50 am, she described as laughable the rumour of her arrest affirming that she only travelled last Sunday to London to accompany her child, who returned to secondary school.
Mrs Ajimobi said, she was not surprised over the capacity of people to peddle rumour, as part of the dirty politics of Oyo, saying that has shown that the true test of any human being is ability to stand firm in times of crisis and controversy.
She said : ” I am here live as you can see, I have never had any encounter with the London Metropolitan Police , and I know I will never have.
It is just rumour like you said , and I think the time has come for us in Nigeria to stop playing dirty politics , we should be very objective , when we are giving information , in particular members of the press, we should verify the information we are giving , and I just want to use this medium to say that the ultimate measure of any man or woman , is where you stand in times of conflict , challenges and controversy and not in times of comfort.
I stand on the solid rock of Jesus Christ , and all other grounds is sinking sand .
It is a phase, it will pass over, this is because I am more than a conqueror.
It is the price I have to pay as the wife of a politician. In particular in Oyo State, where there is record of dirty politics . I do not have any blemish in my ward robe, and I am never going to have any.”
She further clarified that contrary to the rumour making the round that she was arrested two weeks ago, she travelled with her husband to Taipei, in Asia through Dubai for an official engagement.
She said : ” I went on an official visit to Taiwan with my husband, and we did not go to London, from Lagos, we went to Dubai, to Hon Kong , to Taipei, from there back to Hon Kong , to Dubai and back to Lagos .
My international passport is there for record, I could give my passport to you to photocopy and verify and return to me.
It was also alleged that I had traveled out of this country for 52 times , that sounds very ridiculous to me , it means I not even live in Nigeria .
Like I said, we can make photocopy for verification .”
On her mission to London, Mrs Ajimobi said : ” I have a 14 year old child , that has been in England since 2007, and every parent that has children over there , they know the system, she is still in secondary school ,they come home every three weeks, and you have to go and pick them up from school, there are no exemptions that that they are international students, you cannot say because my husband is a governor, because I am married to a governor , I should shelve my responsibility as a mother , I have to manage my home, take care of my children and play the role of a good mother, a responsible mother and a committed mother. That I will do no matter what any body says. My children need me , my child over there needs me and I will be there for her.”
On her advise to mischief makers spreading the rumour of her allege arrest over money laundering charges, Mrs Ajimobi said : ” For me, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, if they have the fear of God , they will stop being mischievous , they should think before they act, they should have the fear of God as well, in their mind, because at the end of the day, there is a judgement day , and all us will be accountable for our actions.
I don’t grudge them , but I just know they have God to contend with, because if you want to blemish my image, the reputation I have kept and maintained for over 32 years , I have kept that name , and for anybody to come at this moment to tarnish that name, they will have God to contend with and I know that they will pay it. Thank you very much . “
