It must be noted that the governor was represented at the said programme by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Hon Ifedayo Abegunde.
No other person could have spoken on behalf of the governor and nobody did.
I wish to make it clear that the governor, a gentleman with deep respect for culture and traditions did not at any time abused or cast aspersions on anybody.
Segun Ajiboye,
Chief Press Secretary to the Governor
