Two OSBC workers suspended for supporting Adeleke
The duo were alleged to have taken to the social media to celebrate the victory of the Peoples Democratic Party ’ s candidate in the Osun West Senatorial District by - election, Chief Ademola Adeleke, and hurled abuses at the governor at the same time .
Our correspondent gathered that Mr . Kunle Makanjuola and Mr . Gbadebo Adepoju were slammed with indefinite suspension on Monday by the management of the corporation , after officials of the corporation were shown the chats where the workers allegedly insulted the governor.
Makanjuola is said to be a level 12 officer at the OSBC Ventures while Adepoju is a deputy director at the corporation ’ s Marketing Department .
Adepoju allegedly wrote , “ Drama in Osun State as state government , under the leadership of Rauf Aregbesola , begins the payment of June salaries at exactly 1 am on Osun West Senatorial by - election day .
“ Local government and state civil servants from Osun West Senatorial District , please don ’ t be deceived by the alerts , the alert is your entitlement and not a gift . You worked for it, even though you deserve more. Don ’ t because you get your half salaries , unexpectedly behind the usual schedule, give your votes to the APC. They are full of deceit . Vote for liberation , vote Ademola Adeleke, vote PDP. ”
Another worker of the OSBC, Mrs. Folakemi Alonge , who is a journalist , was said to have been queried for allegedly insulting a member of the House of Assembly at one of the polling units during the election.
A source told our correspondent that the lawmaker accosted Alonge and asked her who she voted for but the journalist , who was said to have been angered by the question, asked the lawmaker to leave her alone or else she would embarrass him openly .
The source said , “The lawmaker reported her to the management and the management queried her but the issue has been resolved .
“ The two other persons were suspended indefinitely for allegedly abusing the governor, on a WhatsApp group . Those , who are loyal to the governor showed the chats to the management and they were given indefinite suspension on Monday . ”
When contacted , the Commissioner for Information , Mr . Adelani Baderinwa , said the suspension was an internal matter of the OSBC and not that of the state government .
