Ex-deputy governor of Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore has faulted Abdulmumin Jibrin for describing him as godfather to Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Yakubu Dogara, saying Jibrin’s attempt to implicate him in the budget padding scandal is unfortunate.
Jibrin, former chairman, Appropriations Committee of the House of Representatives, had alleged that Omisore is the godfather of Dogara. Omisore, who spoke through his Media Adviser, Prince Diran Odeyemi, said “He (Omisore) is not a member of the House of Representatives and there is nothing wrong having friends across the country.
So, if he (Omisore) has friends across the country and somebody wants to rope him in in any issue, it is very unfortunate and it is very unfortunate.” Speaking further, he said “he (Omisore) is not a member of the APC and everybody knows that. As a senior colleague and former member of the Senate, he relates with virtually all politicians in this country. So, for somebody to accuse him (Omisore) of being a godfather to anybody, it is unfair.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
