Otunba Nurudeen Aina Alowonle has categorically dismissed ongoing rumors suggesting that he has filed a lawsuit against His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun, the Governor of Ogun State. Addressing the speculation in a statement, Alowonle condemned the allegations as “a complete fallacy” and the product of “misleading reports” circulated by individuals seeking cheap publicity.
Alowonle, who expressed his unwavering loyalty to the governor, emphasized that he could never sue “his beloved father and leader.” He stressed that Governor Abiodun has never been an obstacle to his progress, questioning the basis for such a lawsuit against a respected leader making significant contributions to the state’s development.
He further challenged the originators of the rumor, demanding they provide evidence of the alleged lawsuit, the court where it was filed, and the lawyer handling the case. “Filing a lawsuit against someone of such prominence and popularity, especially a governor known for his dedication to the people, is completely unreasonable,” he stated.
In addition to addressing the lawsuit rumors, Alowonle refuted claims that he has defected to the opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for financial support ahead of the 2027 elections. Pledging his unwavering allegiance to the All Progressives Congress (APC), he highlighted his active role within the party, including the launch of a campaign titled Alowonle PDA 4 Ogun East Senate, aimed at rallying support for Governor Abiodun’s political aspirations in the forthcoming elections. He revealed that he has distributed over 3,000 campaign souvenirs across Ogun East as part of the initiative.
Alowonle urged the public to disregard the false narratives surrounding his political affiliations, reaffirming his commitment to the APC. He questioned the logic behind abandoning a party that has been pivotal to his success to align with a less influential opposition.
“I urge the public to disregard these fabrications,” he asserted. “These stories are simply untrue, designed only to create division and stir baseless controversies.”
Concluding, Alowonle reiterated his dedication as a loyal member of the APC and his steadfast support for Governor Dapo Abiodun, reinforcing that any allegations of legal disputes or opposition alliances are nothing but falsehoods.
