‘Wicked allegation’ against Uncle George
Chief Bode George bought our operational bus for us and stocked the vehicle with arms and ammunition whenever we were going on operation to confront our opponents.”
The above statement was the claim of one of the suspected thugs arrested by the police for the killing of a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Otun Azeez, in Isale-Eko area of Lagos Island last year.
The suspect, Adebayo Dipo, 30, and two others, Alade Ogbulu, 30, and Kofi Olumede, 21 – were paraded during the week by the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Kayode Aderanti, at the Command Headquarters, Ikeja.
Too bad, Bode George is out of the country as we speak but Nigerians are eager to hear his response to this ‘wicked allegation’ by some hardened criminals. George, who has been speaking on national issues from his base abroad, is yet to say anything on the matter.
But a very close aide, who craved anonymity, said it was a ploy to tarnish George’s name. He said: “Since Baba (George) started his political career, he has not bought gun or ammunition for any political thug to kill for him. “Baba has not come across anybody with the name Adebayo Dipo who claimed he (George) bought their operational vehicle and ammunition for them.”
Well, until we hear the familiar voice of Bode George, we will keep our fingers crossed hoping seriously that this is a case of mistaken identity, otherwise . . ..
