The Chairman of All Progressives Congress , APC in Abeokuta South Local Government, Ogun State, Hon. Tunji Fagbenro, popularly known as Agbomola has debunked the report by one online news medium that he was rooting for removal of the State governor, prince Dapo Abiodun from the office.
The party chairman disclosed this to newsmen on Friday in reaction to what he described as fake news written by Alimoshotv.com to tarnish his image.
He submitted that the fake news was an attempt by some aggrieved members in the local to tarnish his image
Agbomola added that he didn't speak to journalists on anything against governor Dapo Abiodun, saying that the governor has done a great thing in the local government and the state generally.
He said, '' I didn't speak to journalists on anything against our hardworking governor, prince Dapo Abiodun, the man who has done great thing in the state as a whole, he is an outstanding governor who is very supportive and ready to take the state to a great height. He has been performing well In all the local governments, especially Abeokuta South Local Government, we are enjoying the dividends of democracy from his government.
"The news reported by the online medium is nothing but a fake news to drag my name in the mud.
Our correspondent who carefully listened to the recorded conversation between the chairman and the publisher of the news online confirmed that it was a fake news to tarnish the image of Agbomola.
In the recorded conversation, the publisher revealed that another person spoke with him who identified him self as the chairman of the party in the local government.
He then apologized to the party chairman where he immediately deleted the news from his site.
The chairman while speaking with newsmen said that his opponents are responsible for the fake news, saying that he didn't speak to any medium condemning the governor.
Fagbenro therefore called on the aggrieved APC members to stop tarnishing his image, adding that he is a friend of all.
