The Interim Management Committee of Association of Local Government of Nigeria, ALGON has disassociated itself from the recent comments made by Hon. Kolade in the nations newspaper publication of 10th July, 2023.

In a statement signed by the Director of Media, Victor Iwunor on Tuesday, the IMC described the statement as unguided and disrespectful while noting that Alabi lacks the right to make statement on behalf of the association as he isn’t righteous nor the rightful person to sit on the position of the National President of the association.

It said: “Alabi is not a chairman of any of the constitutionally recognized local government area, he is infact from a development area council in Lagos state, he lacks the grandstanding to lambast democratically elected Executive Governors of any state in Nigeria for whatsoever action they choose to take within the confines of their office.

“The IMC is totally shocked at the effrontery of Alabi castigating governors who recently suspended local government chairmen neck deep in corrupt practices, subterfuge, we wonder if it is now the case of spirit of godfatherism since his godfather is now the number 1 citizen in the country.

“Again, we have to reiterate, that Alabi lacks the morality to speak on matters after he; over the years, never addressed any media outfit as President of ALGON only to show face on mainstream media to drag working and committed State Governor while peddling confusion and deepening association’s crisis.

“The IMC under the able leadership of Hon. Abubakar U. Abdullahi, Chairman Abaji Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory, wishes to use this medium to restate and remind Alabi Kolade David, that the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is beyond any individual. What is even more mesmerizing being that Alabi, directed one of his cronies, Hajia Binta Bello whom he appointed Director General to write to the chamber of Femi Falana SAN, directing them to take affected State Governors to court for suspending corrupt local government chairmen, council chairmen. What legal right does a non-local government chairman who hijacked position as president have to criticize such action? Isn’t it crystal clear that his support to reinstate suspended chairmen, has given out the fact that he is also neck deep in corruption and fraudulent practices? Recall the Interim Management Committee has on several occasion served it out to the public that Alabi and his cronies diverted over ₦‎5.5-billion-naira local government funds, please note that the case is currently under investigation by the Economic Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.”

Meanwhile, in another statement signed by the Secretary General of the Association Hon. Mohammed Abubakar, he bemoaned the ill treatment he got from the DSS on order from Alabi and his cronies.

He said that regardless of occupying a position, he will be speaking as a concerned citizen who is privy to the issues besieging the association having been victimized for speaking up against the atrocities of Alabi, Hajia Binta, Enekwe, Okafor amongst others. He stated that he was clearly warned to desist speaking against the above mentioned after being handcuffed, beaten and thrown into an underground cell harboring Boko Haram and IPOB inmates in the DSS headquarter.

Mohammed emphasized that Alabi for the longest time, has continued to ride on the back of godfatherism and shadow parties, he stated that one who isn’t a lawyer cannot occupy the position of the NBA President, neither one who isn’t a doctor occupying the position of president in NMA.

According to him, Alabi comes from Barida local council development area which is even not among the 20 local government areas of Lagos State recognized by the binding constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria but because of access to enormous funds at his disposal, was able to mount the presidential position within the association.
He reiterated that the ALGON IMC is leading the sole battle to retrieving and salvaging the association from the hands of lawbreakers and usurpers regardless of whosoever is backing them.

“Mr. President before resumption into office, swore an oath to uphold the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I am beyond convinced that judging from his antecedents, he will not take supportive roles against the progress of ALGON. Also I am using this opportunity to call on the security and anti-graft agencies to utilize their good office in intervening for the restoration of the association.” Mohammed added.

Hehehe.

Nobody with good morals anywhere...chai
