Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun and his rival during the March 18 2023 gubernatorial election, Ladi Adebutu, have exchanged brickbats over the performance of the present administration in the last five years in office. Abiodun and Adebutu are Iperu-Remo brothers divided by ambition and politics.
During the last election, Abiodun , who was declared the winner by the state returning officer of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Prof Kayode Adebowale, polled 276,298 votes to defeat Adebutu who scored 262,383. But the PDP’s candidate rejected the results on the allegations of malpractices and challenged it at the Ogun State Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal in Abeokuta.
“We understand governance, we are transparent and we are able to do well despite that the resource in Oyo State is relatively, comparatively small to what we have in Ogun State. “I feel ashamed, I covered my eyes because Dapo is from the same place that I am and he shows his diminished acumen,” he said. ' My brother from my town in Iperu, he now put bands on the road, that he was commissioning a resurface and expanded road or a baby of a few kilometres'.
