2019: Osun PDP Senatorial candidate sells off fuel station
There are strong indications that Osun West Senatorial candidate of the People's Democratic Party , Akogun Lere Oyewumi has started selling his properties to fund his campaign.
An insider account on Thursday December 20, 2018 revealed that cash crunch hit the notable politician, and he has sold his fuel stations in Osogbo and Ikire areas of the state to fund his campaign. The deal, according to the source, was sealed for N40 million naira each.
This, the source disclosed further, was not unconnected with the cold shoulder the candidate was receiving from his supposed sponsors. The insider lamented that Lere should have known that his supposed financiers always keep their resources within their family and only interested in whatever favours their family.
The politician was said to have been running from pillar to post consulting, to ensure victory at the polls and also get off the hook of a suit slammed against him at a Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo, challenging his candidacy.
As at the time of filing this report, the fuel stations have been occupied by the buyer. Lere had bragged some weeks back that the deep pockets behind him would bank roll his election. But, it appeared that the hope of his lifeline has been dashed and he had now resorted to self help.
