The political battle over the true ancestry of Senator Solomon Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, has taken a dramatic turn.
Hon. Abayomi Hunye, leader of Ogun West Concerned Stakeholders, has responded to a press statement issued by Chief Kayode Odunaro, Media Adviser to Senator Adeola (APC, Ogun West), threatening legal action over exposure regarding the Senator’s true ancestral origin.
In a strongly worded press statement released this morning, Hon. Hunye said he and other stakeholders welcome the lawsuit threat with open arms.

“The attention of Hon. Abayomi Hunye has been drawn to a press statement issued by Chief Kayode Odunaro, Media Adviser to Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Ogun West), threatening legal action over our patriotic exposure regarding the Senator’s true ancestral origin.
We want to state categorically that we welcome the threat of a lawsuit with open arms. We are more than ready to meet Senator Adeola in a court of competent jurisdiction. Interestingly, it seems they are not well informed that the matter is already in court. Threatening us with a lawsuit, therefore, is like a political jamboree designed to make noise in the public.
For far too long, the political space in Ogun West has been subjected to intimidation, high-handedness, and the suppression of truth through media propaganda and sponsored brickbats. Senator Adeola’s resort to a twenty-four hour ultimatum and threats of legal action is nothing more than a familiar diversionary tactic, a media gimmick designed to bully dissenting voices and evade public accountability regarding his true identity and eligibility to govern Ogun State.

The issue of a candidate’s origin and eligibility is a matter of constitutional concern, not a private affair. It touches on the integrity of our democratic institutions and the aspirations of the good people of Ogun State, who deserve a leader whose roots and allegiance are indisputably local.
We wish to remind the Senator and his media handlers that truth is an absolute defence against libel. Rather than engaging in empty threats and grandstanding on national television, Senator Adeola should save his energy and approach the court immediately.
We assure the public that we will not be cowed by intimidation or legal blackmail. In court, we will present robust, verifiable facts and documentary evidence substantiating our position, including INEC records, affidavit evidence, burial programmes, Oriki and other ancestral documents.

Let it be clear: Ogun State is not Lagos where identity can be traded. Ogun State is peculiar, semi-rural and deeply rooted in ancestry. The people of Ogun West in particular have waited for decades to produce a governor. That dream cannot be hijacked through identity manipulation.
We call on all well-meaning sons and daughters of Ogun State, especially in Ogun West, to remain calm, law-abiding and vigilant. The courtroom will separate truth from propaganda.
Let the documents speak.
Let the records speak.
Let the law speak.
And above all, let the truth speak.”
