“Ojugbele was at home at the time she was alleged to be arrested by SSS” – Aides and Neighbors

Chief (Mrs. Basirat Olayinka Ojugbele to the media….’I am a strong Muslim, I don’t fight enemies I leave them to God to take on my behalf’

Some aides
and neighbors of the Ojokoro APC Woman leader, Chief (Mrs.) Basirat Ojugbele
equally spoke to this blog on her alleged arrest on Saturday March 28th
by men of the State Security Services
over procession of INEC materials.
They told Asabeafrika how they came about the news of her arrest on the
internet and how their leader who was at home at the time the news was trending
online reacted to it. The first person to speak with Asabeafrika is Mrs. Olayinka
Aderupoko, a very close confidant of Chief
(Mrs.) Basirat Ojugbele.

Chief (Mrs.) Ojugbele to Asabeafrika….’This election is a revolutionary election. People are in need of CHANGE

 She
told us how the entire drama began “On Friday March 27th we were together
at the LGA (Ojokoro ) secretariat, we later went to the market to buy food
stuff to be cooked for our people that are going for election the next day
(March 28th). After we left the market, Alhaja came home and didn’t come out again. I later left her and I
went for my ward meeting for preparation of the next day election. I am one of
the delegates for my unit at Ward B, Jankara
market in Ojokoro land. I can
tell you that Mrs. Ojugbele is a
very nice woman, yesterday; she went out to vote and later came back to the
house in the night. I want to tell Nigerians that there was nothing like her
being arrested by SSS with INEC materials at any given time. If you know her,
you will know that she is no nonsense person and she will never succumb to do
such a ridiculous assignment”

Ms. Yinka Adeyemi Arigbede…..’Somebody called me to inform me of my boss arrest but when i called to find out i discovered she was at home’

Ms Yinka Adeyemi Arigbede is the Personal Assistant to Chief (Mrs.) Basirat Olayinka Ojugbele.  She gave her own version of the SSS arrest
drama “On that Friday night they alleged that Alhaja was picked by the SSS, we were here cooking and preparing
for the next day election. In fact, it was like a vigil because all of us were
sitting here, gisting and cooking. We later slept and left in the early hours
of Saturday. But yesterday somebody just called me that ‘did you hear anything
about Alhaja Ojugbele?’ I said ‘no’
and she said ‘did you check your facebook account?’ 

Mrs Olayinka Aderupoko an APC female leader says ‘It is quite ridiculous for anyone to say Alhaja Ojugbele was arrested by SSS when she was actually sleeping at home’

At that time I was already
at the pooling booth because I am one of the agents of our party at pooling booth A at Ajegunle, Nikky Africana
section. I said I wouldn’t know anything about what you are saying, so I called
Alhaja and asked “Ma, where are
you?” and she said “Ah, I am at home o” and I said somebody just called to say
they saw you on face book carrying INEC ballot papers and that you have been arrested’
and she said she knows nothing about the matter. Later, one honorable member
living around called Honorable Victor
Okeyemi came to the pooling unit and
repeated the same question and I said ‘Sir, I was with her yesterday, we didn’t
even go out as we were busy cooking and preparing for the election, so, how
come?. And I later educated him on the issue and the man came home and saw her.
She was indeed at home and was never with the SSS, she was not even aware as we
were the ones who alerted her of the entire situation”
