Governorship aspirant in Ekiti, Prince Adedayo Adeyeye on Monday denied pitching his tent with the All Progressive Congress candidate Kayode Fayemi, in what was touted to be his latest decision to do the governor Ayo Fayose in in the next governorship poll.
Adeyeye said on Monday that there was no decision to that effect yet adding that members of the public should disregard all insinuation pointing to his defection.
A statement made available to the media by his Director of Media, Niyi Ojo, said “There is deliberate falsehood and blackmail trending on social media that Prince Adeyeye and his supporters have defected to APC with a promise of #200million to be sourced by Governor Amosun of Ogun State.
“The rumours emanated from Prime Reporters, a blog owned and managed by Governor Fayose’s Media aide, Lere Olayinka, whose life achievement as a journalist is to libel, blackmail and malign the integrity of any person apart from who is presently feeding him.
“We call on the general public to disregard the write up as the figment of the imagination of the author.
“Prince Adeyeye has the right to any political association of his choice and he knows how to unveil his new platform without recourse to yellow journalism as evidenced from the publication of falsehood to the general public.
“We assured all lovers and admirers of Prince Adeyeye that in a matter of days a broad based platform for the realization of him ambition shall be made known after extensive consultations and deliberations.”
