Dear Compatriots,
Ladies and gentlemen on this forum, this story of my contending for the post of Deputy Governor hitherto occupied by Adunni my darling friend and sister is rubbish. I Senator Babafemi Ojudu want to categorically and emphatically state that I am not contending for the post of Deputy Governor. I have not shown any interest in it, I will not show any interest in it.
I personally brought Mrs Funmilayo Adunni Olayinka to Ekiti to come and run with Dr Kayode Fayemi in 2007. I was not interested then and I am not interested now.
It is even illogical. How could I abandon my high responsibility in the Senate and opt of the position of Deputy Governor. Most governors complete their assignments in their respective states and go to the Senate. Today there are about 20 former Governors and Deputy Governors in the Senate.
Besides , this woman was my friend, my sister and my confidant. Going by our traditional believes and practices I could even lay claim to our being family, all be it distant. I first met her in 1987 and she has since been very close to me and my family. Lanre , the husband is my very close to me. Whenever he is in Ado Ekiti and I happened to be around he stays more with me than with the wife who of course was always busy at work. The children also spend time in my house whenever they are visiting.
My intention was not to join issues on this matter but I have to do this because there may be people on this forum who may think this could be true.
Let me once again reiterate that I don’t want to be, I will not be, and I am not interested. I am satisfied with what I am doing now .
Babafemi Ojudu.
