Allegations of impersonation, anti-party and fraud against Gbenga Afeni and Adesoji Adeleke (Masilo)

 

ALLEGATIONS OF IMPERSONATION, ANTI-PARTY AND FRAUD AGAINST MR GBENGA AFENI AND PRINCE ADESOJI ADELEKE (MASILO) OF THE BOOT PARTY, OSUN STATE.

 

The Osun State Chairman of National Rescue Movement Party in Osun State, Prince Adetona Abede has made a serious allegations against one Mr Gbenga Afeni a member and the senatorial candidate of Boot party in the February 25th national assembly election, masquerading as the National Rescue Movement (NRM) Chairman in Osun State with the active connivance of Prince Adesoji Adeleke (Masilo).

 

 Prince Adetona Abede has also accused the said Prince Adesoji Adeleke (Masilo) the Osun State Chairman of Boot party of collecting and pocketing  the sum of one million naira given to each political parties in alliance with the then ruling APC party in Osun state during the 2022 governorship election meant for his party NRM in Osun state.

 

 However,Prince Adesoji Adeleke (Masilo) refused to give the money to the authentic Chairman of NRM in Osun State Prince Adetona Abede despite supporting APC in the governorship election.

 

Prince Adetona Abede has further alleged that the Osun State Boot Party Chairman (Masilo) is known for fraudulent activities like this which has made the Boot party led by him to be considered as corrupt,and this has depreciated the value and glory of the Boot Party in Osun State with his record of anti party, electoral fraud, and political prostitution,as he was nicknamed as AGIP (Any Government In Power) because of his antecedents.

 

 Meanwhile in order to cover up this atrocities,Prince Adesoji Adeleke (Masilo)  therefore engaged his senatorial candidate,Mr Gbenga Afeni, a card-carrying member of the Boot Party, by parading him as the Chairman of NRM, even to the extent of taking pictures with the Osun Resident Electoral Commissioner claiming that the revered REC,Mr Mutiu Agboke is aware of their scam which the Resident Electoral Commissioner is not aware of. 

This act of impersonation and criminal activities of the duo of Adeleke and Afeni is against the law of the land and we therefore implored the National leadership of Boot party to wade in before it degenerates further.

 

The leadership of NRM has confirmed Prince Adetona Abede as the authentic Chairman of the party, and his name is in Osun state INEC record as the NRM state Chairman as at the time of writing this report. The said Gbenga Afeni is not a card-carrying member of NRM, but a member of the Boot Party where he contested as a Senatorial candidate  in the just concluded Senatorial election representing Osun East Senatorial district of the state.  

 

Afeni has a record of anti party activities in his former party before joining Boot party in Osun state.

 

Prince Adetona Abede has reported the impersonation case leveled against Gbenga Afeni to the Osun State Commissioner of Police and the Director of State Security. 

 

The allegations made by Prince Adetona Abede are serious, and they threaten the integrity of the political party system in Nigeria, particularly Osun State. 

The actions of Masilo and Afeni are illegal and against the law. It is important that the authorities investigate these allegations thoroughly and take appropriate action against them if found to be true.

 

Impersonation is a serious crime that is punishable by law. It is illegal to assume the identity of another person or to present oneself as someone else. Gbenga Afeni's actions of parading himself as the Chairman of NRM in the state with the support of Prince Adesoji Adeleke (Masilo) needs to be investigated and dealth with accordingly.

 

The political party system is meant to be transparent and fair, and it is important that the integrity of the system be upheld in our country- Nigeria.

 

Prince Adetona Abede claimed he is receiving threats and attempts on his life because he is fighting for his rights and sanity in the political party system of Osun State. It is important that he is protected and that the authorities take appropriate measures to ensure his safety.

 

The political party system in Osun State should be based on merit and not on fraudulent activities or anti party activities. 

 

The public should be aware of the actions of Masilo and Afeni, and they should not be allowed to continue their fraudulent and anti party activities.

 

The media should also play a role in exposing the actions of people like Masilo and Afeni and holding them accountable for their actions.

HOW SYNW ESTABLISHED DIGITAL LIBRARIES AND PAPERLESS BOOK CLUBS IN 15 SCHOOLS IN OYO STATE 

 

The Society of Young Nigerian Writers (SYNW) successfully established digital libraries and paperless book clubs in 15 secondary schools across Oyo State. This initiative was introduced during the second edition of the Read Across Nigeria project in 2017, which featured readings in 18 states of the federation.

The guest celebrant for the 2017 edition of the Read Across Nigeria project was Hadjia (Mrs) Hafsat Abdulwaheed, a Nigerian author who writes mainly in Hausa. Hadjia Abdulwaheed is also a poet and women's rights activist who has written more than 30 books, only five of which have been published.

The national headquarters of SYNW, under the leadership of Wole Adedoyin, used the occasion to establish digital libraries and paperless book clubs in St. Patrick Grammar School, Queens of Apostle, Oluyoro Oke Ofa, Oke Ibadan Boys High School, Oba Akinyele Memorial High School, Loyola College, Lagelu Grammar School, Islamic High School, Isabatudeen Girls Grammar School, God’s Blessing Comprehensive College, Bashorun Ojoo High School, Anglican Commercial Grammar School, Alegongo Community High School, Agugu Boys High School, and Adesina College.

The digital libraries contain a variety of e-books on different subjects, literature books (poetry, prose, and drama) and other relevant materials to aid students' learning. The paperless book clubs also provide a platform for students to interact with each other, share ideas and discuss literature, creating a community of readers electronically.

The Read Across Nigeria project, which began in 2016, is an annual event aimed at promoting the culture of reading among Nigerians, particularly young people. The project has become a popular event in the literary community, attracting renowned authors and intellectuals as guests of honor.

The establishment of digital libraries and paperless book clubs in Oyo State schools is a major milestone in SYNW's efforts to promote the culture of reading and improve access to educational materials in Nigeria.

The use of digital libraries and paperless book clubs also has environmental benefits, as it reduces the need for paper and other physical resources. This is in line with SYNW's commitment to promoting sustainable development and preserving the environment.
