My attention has been drawn to a malicious publication and spread by mischief makers on social media hiding under a faceless name to smear the person of our benefactor, Hon. Babatunde Olaotan (HBO), the Special Adviser to the Governor on Government House and General Matters
With the hard work that governance comes with, I would have naturally not given the malicious publication by OGUN CHRONICLE a thought, but it has become necessary just to set the record straight due to the unrelenting efforts of the detractors to dent the good name HBO has built for himself over the years.
With all available information at my disposal especially as a loyal disciple of this great personality, I can unequivocally state that the issues raised are totally false and baseless fabrications from those whose job is to hide in the background to discredit personalities worthy of celebration due to envy and bad belle politics.
The desperate attempt by these attention seekers further proves that HBO is making a difference and setting the pace for others to follow. Going down memory lane till date, HBO stands as one of the most accommodating leaders in Ogun state. No wonder he has remained a blessing to his generation and younger ones since his adventure into politics dated year 2000 when he was appointed a Supervisory Councillor in Yewa South Local Government.
HBO as he is fondly called is not just a gift to his political constituency, he is, also, a gift to all the youths in Ogun state through his many contributions to youthful activities and engagements.
In thier failed attempt to bring the personality of HBO into disrepute, the lies told against him projects how desperate people can be in the show of ignorance and cynicism.
But being a man of integrity with unwaven focus to the development of Ogun state through his office and his assistance to the people of Ogun state in official and personal capacity, HBO will not be distracted by these obvious campaigns of lies and calumny.
As the flame of lies die even before it was started, all of the allegations against HBO in those publications are nothing but fallacy.
We urge the peddlers of the publication to identify themselves and make thier accusations public rather than being a coward.
But for the avoidance of doubt, the recent rise in people being paid to “peddle blatant falsehoods” against officials of the government is not enough to stop the good work that the Governor has started.
The publication is riddled with beer parlour gossips and mere speculations.
Over the years and even before his current appointment, HBO has proven himself as a man of integrity, honour, strong character and values
HBO is an exemplary Yewa son that the whole of Ogun state takes pride in. No wonder he's so loved among hundreds of thousands of ogun state youths.
Finally, the legacy of the man fondly called HBO is one that will be used as a yard stick to measure achievements in office and no matter how they try to discredit him, they will always fail.
