The Senator
representing Ogun East Senatorial District, Senator Buruji Kashamu has hinted
that he would on Monday submit a counter petition against former Ogun State
Governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel who has accused him of sending assassins to kill
him.
Daniel, in a
petition to the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris had alleged
that Kashamu sent assassins to kill him in his Abuja home, but when they did
not meet him, they mishandled some of his aides who were at home.
But Kashamu,
who spoke to The Guardian through his Media Aide, Austin Onyokor also disclosed
that the petition would call on the Inspector-General to dismiss the allegation
in its entirety because it is fabricated and total falsehood.
Besides,
Onyokor who spoke to the reporter on phone said, Kashamu is calling on the
Police authorities to thoroughly investigate the two of them (Daniel and
Kashamu) “to enable them find out which of them has a record of violence”.
Onyokor
said, “We are submitting a Petition to the IGP and other Security agencies on
Monday asking them to dismiss the allegation on its entirety.”
Accusing
Daniel of playing “dirty politics”, he insisted “How can somebody just wake up
and make such wild allegation against his political opponent just to dent his
(Kashamu) image, such wicked behaviour smacks of desperation”.
He assured
that Kashamu had resolved to explore all peaceful, legal and civilised means to
clear his name.
