‘Stop maligning my name’ – MC Oluomo reacts to sale of Tinubu’s stickers to ‘keke napep’ riders
Chairman of Lagos State Park and Garages Management Committee, Musiliu Akinsanya aka MC Oluomo, has reacted to a viral video where he was accused of raising funds for All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
In the video, keke napep riders were protesting after they were asked to pay for a campaign sticker which carries the pictures of Tinubu and Lagos governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu and MC Oluomo.
However, MC Oluomo has distanced himself from the sticker sale, calling on political parties to stop maligning his name.
“My attention has yet again been drawn to a video clip circulating online showing an altercation between two people as regards a sticker,” MC Oluomo wrote in Instagram.
“It came to me as a surprise seeing that people were attaching the video to me and were also quick to state that it was a campaign fee to support the election of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
“Naturally I would have just ignored knowing that it’s the handiwork of naysayers. Being in an election session, I also know their malicious intentions and the cheap political goal they aim to get with the video. I am however compelled for the sake of clarity to set the record straight.
“I did not know anything about the said sticker, neither did I sanction the sale. I would appreciate additional information as regards the location where the incident happened so that we can conduct thorough investigation.
“We are against anything that would hamper the free flow of business activities or bring hardship upon our people. May I also inform the public that the APC Presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has more than enough people willing to finance his campaign and such money would not come from me or my office.
“I want to urge our people to be vigilant and remember that we are in an election period, as such, political parties would be looking for ways, both ethical and unethical, to outsmart themselves. I however implore them to leave me out of their political permutations and stop maligning my name for the sake of cheap popularity.”
