Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has debunked reports that President Tinubu appointed him as political leader in Ondo State..
The Minister, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Alao Babatunde, on Wednesday, April 10, said Tinubu has blnof appointed him as a political leader in Ondo.
It partly reads: “It has come to our attention that a news article circulating on Blueprint newspaper, titled ‘Tinubu appoints interior minister political leader in Ondo,’ claiming that the Minister of Interior, Hon. (Dr) Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has been appointed as the political leader in Ondo state by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“We would like to categorically state that this report is entirely baseless and fictitious.
“The Minister of Interior, Hon. Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, completely disassociates and distances himself from the purported appointment, as it holds no truth whatsoever.
“There has been no meeting held with all the local government APC chairmen and leaders in Abuja, as alleged in the article.”
