Bamidele, as learnt was flown to Lagos aboard a Air Ambulance Chopper with registration number 5N-BSW belonging to Flying Doctors Nigeria, which landed at about 3.05pm at Christ’s School, Ado Ekiti metropolis.

Though, Bamidele’s health has stabilized appreciably, but there was need for him to go for post surgery treatments to ensure quick convalescence for him to be able to join Dr. Fayemi’s campaign train, of which he has been playing a pivotal role.

Salami said, “We want to assure our teeming supporters to discountenance the misinformation by rumour peddlers that his health had relapsed”. The spokesperson added that he was in a stable condition and people were already having unfettered access to him at EKSUTH before he left for Lagos.

Dr. Fayemi and his wife, Erelu Bisi Fayemi, Aare Afe Babalola, Engr. Segun Oni, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, Dr. Wole Oluleye, Barrister Victor Kolade and several other bigwigs in APC circle including ordinary members of his party were allowed access to him on the sick bed confirming the appreciable level of his stability before being allowed to be taken out of the state.

“Let me put on records that his being taken to Lagos was caused by gross dearth of equipment and personnel at EKSUTH.

“As much as we salute the proficiency and commitments of the Doctors in the hospital, let me also added that many of the consultants and equipment used in performing the surgery were hired from other hospitals.

“To forestall a situation whereby we have to rely on bringing equipment that were readily available in other hospitals down to Ekiti to treat him, we decided to shift him to such hospital to fast track his recuperation”, Salami explained.

The Deputy Speaker, Lasun had claimed while addressing a press conference at the Constituency Relations Office, Osogbo through his Special Adviser on Constituency Matters, Dr. Ajala alleged that he had received a number of threats that have put his life in danger since he has signified intention to occupy the Abere Government House in 2018.

He stressed that the public utterances and actions associated with the chairman of All Progressives Party (APC) in the state, Prince Gboyega Famoodun and others in the government of Osun State serve as evidences of endangering his life saying that his concern is beyond the context of emotion.

On the contrary, as contained in a press statement issued and made available to newsmen by Barrister Kunle Oyatomi, the Director of Publicity, Research and Strategy of the All Progressives Congress (APC), the party labeled  Hon. Lasun and his cohorts as mere cheap opportunists.

The statement reads, “the attention of the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the State of Osun have been drawn to a release issued by one Dr. Aderemi Suleiman Ajala on behalf of the Deputy Speaker, House of Representatives, Hon. Lasun Yussuf on the threat to his life, among all other allegations of unfounded and baseless security concerns.

“We hereby state unequivocally that the Deputy Speaker and his band of delusional propagandists are mere opportunists clustering to the death of our late party leader and illustrious son of Ede, Senator Isiaka Adeleke to make smokescreen names and score undue political relevance for themselves. To all intent and purposes, the deputy speaker has once again demonstrated to the teeming populace that he is mischievous and a mere opportunist who lacks the deserving respect for the dead and cannot stand by the etiquette and traditional norms of our rich cultural heritage as Yoruba speaking people”.

“Setting the records straight, the executive of the Osun State APC in line with the tenets of democratic principles entrenched in the ideology of our great party, and in order not to distract the business of developmental governance and fulfilment of our electioneering promises as contained in our manifesto issued an advisory notice to all intending governorship aspirants for the 2018 elections to wait until there are clear guidelines and directives by INEC, as such the claim by Hon. Lasun Yusuf that himself and the late Adeleke were singled out and warned is a blatant lie and a template to deceit.

“Alas, without searching further, Hon. Yusuf has without any iota of doubt within us that he is the chief sponsor and promoter of the irritating blackmail against the government of the state of Osun that the late senator of osun west senatorial district was poisoned which was a resultant effect of his death. This in its entirety is illogical and irresponsible.

“We are poised to believe this outburst must be as a result of the outcast behavioural tendencies of Lasun Yussuf in OSUN APC after distancing himself from the activities of the party

“We equally stand in the position of the Adeleke family, having affirmed that they are still waiting for the comprehensive report of the autopsy carried out on the first civilian governor of osun state.

“In the spirit of this sorrowful loss, unfortunate death, mourning and more remarkably as a sign of respect to the soul of the deceased, we shall henceforth decline to join issues with self-seeking politician, who is presently arrogating undue popularity to himself.

“Its quite unfortunate that someone who rode on the popularity and acceptability of our party to get to National Assembly could fabricaopportunis of lies against the Government and Leadership of the Party. We only wish to advise the lawmaker to simply retrace his steps if truly he is still a member of the Osun APC.

“We are touched with the huge vacuum and irreplaceable role Senator Adeleke’s death has left in the progressive camp of Osun APC, we once again sympathize with the Governor and government of the State of Osun, the Adeleke family, the entire APC family, the people of Ede and Osun state in general, may Allah accept the repose of our beloved Serubawon”, the statement continued.
