Elulu Of Mopa Rebutes Claim Of Forged Letter Alleging His Support For The SDP Candidate In the Election Petition Tribunal/Appeal Court

Spread the love

My attention has been drawn to a letter paraded in my name and office as the Elulu of Mopa and Chairman Mopamuro Local Government Area Traditional Council of Chiefs.

The content of the malicious letter according to information reaching me claims that I have written to interfere in the ongoing November 2023 Kogi State Governorship Election Tribunal, not only to interfere, but to support the former candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Alhaji Murtala Ajaka in the case filed in Appeal Court against the victory of his All Progressives Congress counterpart (APC), His Excellency Usman Ahmed Ododo who legitimately won the election and now the Governor of Kogi State.

As an educated and civilzed fellow, I know the repercussions of interfering in court cases and one which is partisanly political for that matter.

I have written to rebute these claims, and say that I have never authorized such, neither sign such document, nor it came from my office as an individual, business person and monarch. Eventhough the letter is not in the media space, I have received information from different quartes concerning it.

I call on the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) and the Department of State Security Service (DSSS) to by all means, investigate the perpetrators of this criminal act as I am ready to by every legal means ensure that they get justice and reward for their inimical act.

Despite not partisan in politics and being a Monarch, as a sense of responsibility of a statesman, I have congratulated the Governor of Kogi State, His Excellency, Alhaji Usman Ahmed Ododo over his victory at the Tribunal.

For Alhaji Murtala Ajaka, I have neither met, spoken to, contacted taken from nor passed correspondence to him directly or indirectly. Again, I have never had any reason to deal with him.

As the newly coronated Elulu of Mopa and Chairman Mopamuro Local Government Area Traditional Council of Chiefs, the public should be aware that lots of ox has been gored over my divine emergence, and as such, before now, I have seen lots of pull down syndrome from persons from such camp.

I urge the public to ignore and not be carried away by it, as I also promise that the perpetrators will be brought to book as this will be thoroughly investigated till we get to the root of it for justice to be served.

Once again I congratulate His Excellency Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo on his emergence as Kogi State Governor and victory at the tribunal, I urge Mopa people in particular and Kogi State people in general to remain calm, to continue to join us in the development of Mopamuro and Kogi State with Governor Usman Ododo as we pray for his victory at both appeal and supreme court.

Signed:
His Royal Majesty,
(Oba) Dr. Muyiwa Ibeun,
Elulu of Mopa & Chairman, Mopamuro Traditional Council of Chiefs.
