Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke says he has not appointed his daughter in person of Adenike Folasade Adeleke and his alleged uncle, Professor Maroof Adeleke into the State cabinet as alleged by some news media.
Governor’s Spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed in a statement says there is no truth in the report as neither of the two nominees are daughter or uncle of the Governor.
The statement indicates that Professor Adeleke hails from Osogbo, the state capital while Mrs. Adeleke is the daughter of Chief Omidiran of Osogbo Land and wife of the late Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Isiaka Adeleke.
It therefore urges members of the public to ignore the fake news as no biological member of the Governor’s family is included in the cabinet list, adding that Governor Adeleke is committed to fair distribution of appointments based on competency, spread and sectoral representation.
