DAILY POST
Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has knocked Timi Frank for alleging the inducement of judges in the petition by ex-Governor Gboyega Oyetola against Governor Ademola Adeleke.
Frank, a former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party, claimed some politicians are planning to bribe and intimidate Supreme Court judges.
The APC noted that the “self-acclaimed political activist” further alleged that the monetary inducement was $2 million per judge.
On Thursday, Osun APC acting chairman, Tajudeen Lawal, in a statement by Director of Information, Kola Olabisi, debunked the claim as “false and spurious [and] borne out of desperation of Frank and his sponsors.”
Lawal said he was trying to blackmail Oyetola from going to the Supreme Court and “deliberately blackmailing the revered highest judicial officers.”
The APC chairman lambasted the politician for “dragging the judiciary in the mud because of his own political interest.”
“When did it become a norm for a character like the loquacious and irritant former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC to be dictating professional pace for the judiciary?
