Ibadan-based publication, papermacheonline has quoted a source (a former Local Government Chairman) and one of Adelabu's boys to have alleged that the national secretary of the APC, Senator Iyiola Omisore received a brand new Mercedes Benz G-Wagon from Adelabu with a promise of supporting him and also getting him Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s backing.
The aggrieved ex LG boss, who claimed many people in their camp were furious when their principal, Adelabu lost the ticket and left the APC for Accord where he planned to actualise his ambition, have demanded for the return of the car gift from Omisore.
"It was obvious that the primaries were marred with irregularities. Folarin couldn’t have won, but they changed the names of the delegates, and Omisore who promised to help us present a good case didn’t do anything! He should just return the car gift, at least we’ve left the party for them", the man was quoted.
Days before his defection to Accord Party, Adelabu in a letter addressed to the leadership of the APC after the primaries voiced his anger at what he described a ‘daylight robbery’ that translated to the ‘jagba’ tactics of Senator Teslim Folarin and he vowed to seek a legal redress on the matter.
