Gani Adams accuses Igboho of collecting N45m from Sanwo-Olu's CoS to assassinate him

Gani Adams, the Aare Ona Kakanfo has accused Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, who is known as Sunday Igboho of attempting to assassinate him.

Adam alleged Igboho, who has recently been at loggerheads with authorities, collected N45 million from Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu's Chief of Staff (CoS), Tayo Ayinde, to execute the act.

In a report by The Punch, Adams claimed Ayinde was working for Tinubu to eliminate him and they had concluded plans with Sunday Igboho to take his life.

Gani Adams failed to confirm his claim when contacted by The Punch saying "No comment on that. No comment."

The lawyers of Ayinde and Igboho have in separate pre-action letters demanded that Adams withdraw his claim or face legal action.

Ayinde's lawyer, Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN), in a pre-action letter dated March 20, 2024, asked the Aare Ona Kakanfo to withdraw the allegation without the need from his client's side to "press you further on the subject," Legit reported.

Olumide-Fusika maintained that there was a need for the pre-action letter because of what was contained in the press statement issued by Sunday Igboho, which is titled: "I did not take part in killing Chief Bola Ige."

He went further to describe the statement of the allegation of Adams as a move to injure his client's character. He demanded that Aare Ona Kakanfo retract the statement immediately.
