...Breaks silence on EFFC's trial
One
year after leaving office, former Ogun Statet governor, Otunba Gbenga
Daniel on Sunday broke his silence over the administration of his
successor, Senator Ibikune Amosun, saying he is closely " watching" and
"monitoring" it.
"Everything
appears to be in utter confusion. I believe it is in midst of utter
confusion solutions normally come. Solution will come to our people.
This is the first time of speaking publicly since I left office. I
deliberately chose to keep quiet.
"Democracy
has made it possible for structure to be put in place. It is important
that the new structure is left to perform. I will keep my mouth shut,
we are watching and monitoring and Ogun people are monitoring. As I
have always said, God is in control," Daniel said.
Daniel
who made the remarks in Ijebu - Ode at the 50th birthday celebration of
his former Information and Orientation Commissioner, Mr. Sina Kawonise,
reckoned that his current unwarranted travails and "persecution,"
especially in the hands of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission(EFCC) may not be unconnected with his daring to "rights the
wrongs" in the Gateway State.
He
recalled that the pantheon of the yoruba politics, late Chief Obafemi
Awolowo, Chief Ayo Adebanjo were at one point in their lives persecuted,
even driven to either prison or exile because they summoned courage to
"right the wrongs in the society."
According
to him, despite the fact that his "administration faced the biggest
probe," he is yet to see "where the Ogun State kobo is either missing or
stolen."
