Governor Adeleke Suspends Aide Over Alleged Diversion Of 70 Bags (via Primetweets)

Comrade Emmanuel Adebisi

An allegation of diverting 70 bags of rice has led to the suspension of Comrade Emmanuel Adebisi, the Senior Special Assistant on Civil Societies to Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke.

The civil society coalition in the state, as represented by Comrade Olowu Emmanuel, claimed that the bags of rice intended for them were not delivered and that Adebisi was responsible for this diversion.

Following the accusations of dishonesty and misconduct, Governor Adeleke made the decision to suspend Adebisi, accusing him of misleadingly accepting the rice for delivery to the civil society coalition but failing to do so.

In a statement, Emmanuel mentioned:



“There has never been a time, since the coming of this administration that anything meant for civil societies delivered. Not even palliative meant to alleviate suffering or the people of the State.”

Despite denying the suspension on his official Facebook page, Adebisi shared:



“The claims suggesting I Emmanuel Adebisi have been suspended and removed from a WhatsApp group are categorically false. I continue to serve diligently in my capacity as Senior Special Assistant to the Governor of Osun State, with unwavering commitment to my responsibilities. Any insinuation of my involvement in misconduct, particularly relating to the alleged diversion of 70 bags of rice intended for Osun Civil Societies during the Eid-el-Kabir festival, is entirely baseless and without merit and the hand work of some bitter politicians and I challenge anyone with fact on this to bring it out”

However, Governor Adeleke’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, released a statement on July 3, confirming Adebisi’s immediate suspension. The Governor disclosed that the suspension will remain enforced while investigations are conducted under the supervision of his Chief of Staff, Kazeem Akinleye.

The statement cited:

“The Governor has directed immediate suspension of the Senior Special Assistant on Civil Societies, Comrade Emmanuel Adebisi, pending outcome of investigations by the Chief of Staff to the State Governor, Hon Kazeem Akinleye”
