The 2 Adelekes Among Osun Governor’s Cabinet Nominees Not His Blood Relations- Media Aide

Professor Moruf Ademola Adeleke and Adenike Folashade Adeleke, who were among those on the list of Governor Ademola Adeleke’s cabinet nominees that was made public on Friday, are not the governor’s blood relations, a Government House, Osogbo statement, has clarified.

The governor’s spokesman, Mr. Olawale Rasheed in a statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com  submitted that while the two nominees are indigenes of Osogbo, they are not the governor’s blood relations.

‘The attention of Governor Ademola Adeleke has been drawn to the fake news alleging that the state chief executive has included his supposed daughter in person of Adenike Folasade Adeleke and his alleged uncle, Prof Maroof Adeleke among his cabinet nominees.

There is no truth, whatsoever in the media reports as the two nominees are not his blood relations, not his daughter or his uncle, Prof Adeleke was born in Ilesa and he hails from Osogbo, the state capital. Mrs. Adeleke is the daughter of Chief Omidiran of Osogbo Land and wife of the late Executive Governor of Osun state, Senator Isiaka Adeleke.

We had expected those pushing the fake news to engage in basic investigative journalism if they have any altruistic motive. If however the goal is to malign the state governor, the truth cannot be hidden as the nominees are bona-fide indigenes of Osogbo Land.

We therefore urge members of the public to ignore those merchants of fake news. No  blood relations  of the governor is included on the list of cabinet nominees. Governor Adeleke is committed to fair distribution of appointments based on competency, spread and sectoral representation’ he said-Team@orientactualmags.com
