Davido's Father Reveal What He Will Do to Adeleke If He Loots Osun State Treasury
Dr Deji Adeleke and Osun State Governor-Elect, Ademola Adeleke

Nigerian musician, Davido‘s father who currently serves as the Pro-Chancellor, Adeleke University, Dr Deji Adeleke has revealed what he will do to Osun state Governor-election, Ademola Adeleke if he decided to loot the state’s treasury in his administration.

Naija News understands that the academician is the elder brother of Senator Ademola Adeleke who defeated the incumbent Governor of Osun, Gboyega Oyetola in the recently conducted gubernatorial election in the state.

Dr Deji while speaking at the 8th undergraduate and 4th postgraduate convocation of the Adeleke University over the weekend said the governor-elect has no reason to fail the people who voted him into power.

He said Adeleke is not answerable to any god-father, hence is not under any pressure to loot the state’s purse to feed the political godfather.

The academician added that all that is needed is for the Governor-elect to focus on good governance, saying that he has counselled him (Ademola) and his team that anyone whose interest is to steal state resources must not be allowed to make the cabinet.

“I told the governor-elect (my brother) and his colleagues that they are lucky because they do not have any godfather to refund any money to, so whatever people contributed for the election is contribution and it’s a sacrifice for a better Nigeria, for a better State, so the governor-elect and his colleagues are not under any pressure, the only thing they need to do out there is to go and serve the people.

“And I threatened them that I will be the first to call the press conference if I see things going wrong with his government, I will be the first to alert the world that your governor has derailed. I’ve also told him and his team not to allow anyone that is not ready to serve, anyone that his focus is to come and look for money to steal from the poor people (Osun is a very poor state) into the team”, Vanguard quoted Dr Deji as saying.

While counselling the new graduates, he urged them to live an accountable life in order to hold leaders accountable for their acts in public offices.

According to him, we just held an election in Osun State, forty-five polling units disappeared, and young NYSC presiding officers did not show up in their designated polling units, meanwhile, people were waiting to vote but the material, result sheet and BIVAS machine were taken to somewhere else.

He added: “Untill a Director started calling to make sure that those people reported to where they are supposed to, otherwise my brother wouldn’t have been the governor-elect today. And those who allowed themselves to be used were NYSC young people, it’s not Commissioners in INEC, people blame INEC but forgotten that it is the young ones that have been entrusted in this responsibility are the one wrecking their (your) own future. Because if you cannot hold a government accountable then we don’t have any future in this country.

“So please our young ones, do remember what you’re taught here, remember that the future of this country depends on you, seize up that future, make sure you register to vote, make sure that any government you don’t want or that is not serving right in your constituency is voted out, do not participate in bringing down this country, participate in all things that will bring up this country to the desired country that you want”.

In his convocation speech, the Vice Chancellor, Professor, Solomon Adebola said 25 of the graduates bagged first class degree honours, 468 bagged second class upper, 260 had second class lower while only 9 graduated with third class. He added that the University graduated 28 Ph.D students, 55 with Master’s degrees, one with an MPhil PhD and three students of Post Graduate Diploma (PGD).
