Osun: Adeleke never bought me a car – Ex-Governor, Oyinlola

Former Osun State Governor, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, refuted claims made by the current governor, Ademola Adeleke, regarding the provision of a car to him. During an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Oyinlola debunked the assertion, stating that a law in Osun State mandates the replacement of a vehicle for ex-governors every four years.

He pointed out that he has been out of office for 16 years, which implies that the state would have had to replace his car multiple times. According to Oyinlola, this law was enacted by the State House of Assembly and is a factual development, not misinformation. He emphasized that the provision of the vehicle is not dependent on individual governors.

"That is far from the truth, and it is a sad development that a governor will continue to tell lies," Oyinlola remarked. He clarified that it was not Ademola Adeleke who bought him the car, but the Osun State government, as per the stipulated law.
