Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has taken a swipe at former governor of the state, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, describing him as a “paperweight” while recalling that he once gave the former governor a car.
Adeleke made the statement while reacting to comments by Oyinlola, a former military administrator and governor of Osun State.
The governor reportedly recalled his past relationship with Oyinlola, including his claim that he gave the former governor a car.
Adeleke’s comment has added a new dimension to the ongoing political exchanges involving prominent figures in Osun State.
The governor's description of Oyinlola as a “paperweight” has also generated attention, particularly given the former governor’s political experience and influence in the state.
The exchange comes amid heightened political activities in Osun State, with leading political figures increasingly engaging in public criticism and counter-criticisms.
Adeleke’s remarks are expected to attract further reactions from supporters of both politicians as political activities continue to intensify in the state.
