Contrary to the report in one of the dailies, Osun People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in Saturday, August 9, 2014 gubernatorial election in the Home of the Living Spring, Senator Iyiola Omisore has denied any link to the alleged assault on Fuji king, Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde Anifowoshe, better known as K1 de Ultimate in Osogbo, a couple of days back, after performing at the campaign rally organized by All Progressives Congress (APC) flag bearer for the election, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.
An APC chieftain who spoke to ENCOMIUM Weekly said the famous musician was almost attacked by a group of people suspected to be PDP supporters who disguised as fans of the Ijebu Ode, Ogun born entertainer, but for his heavy security guards. “The crowd was too heavy at the rally ground. It was difficult to know who was who. I think some people disguised as APC supporters and fans of K1 actually wanted to carry out the havoc but their plan didn’t yield their desired result.
However, Omisore via his media man, Mr. Diran Odeyemi, the controversial politician expressed bitterness over the allegation, labeling those sponsoring it as mischief makers. He described the publication as not only false but malicious. “That’s not true, my brother. They are only looking for a way of making wrong the image of Otunba Omisore in order to distract him,” he said in an interview with newsmen.
Efforts to get the Oluaye of Fuji’s reaction failed as all the calls put through his mobile phone were ignored. We equally sent him a text message, all to no avail.
