The group, therefore, warned Ibrahim against “trading the state into the hands of political merchants.”
In a statement issued by its president, Tomide Akinribido, the group warned Ibrahim against allowing himself to be used as “a tool in the hands of some people operating from the ruling APC government.”
The statement said it became necessary for it to talk because of what it called “unfolding dangerous situation in the state.”
It said: “It is of great importance to issue this press statement at this time, when our attention has been drawn to this revelation by an online newspaper on how controversial businessman, Jimoh Ibrahim, knowing full well that he cannot win an election, wants to cause distraction and commotion within the ruling party in the state, with intent to give way to the APC candidate, Rotimi Akeredolu.”
The statement said that Ibrahim has no good record either as public or private figure, alledging he was out to attract “cheap public attention not minding its outcome.”
