Adeleke Snubs Journalists after Screening

A governorship aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the fast-approaching governorship election in Osun State, Senator Ademola Ademola Adeleke has turned down all entreaties by journalists at the National Secretariat of his party in Abuja to express his views on the screening exercise.

Credible eye witnesses at the secretariat informed the medium how the former senator was approached by the news hounds to have an insight into what actually transpired at the screening room and his programmes if eventually voted to lead the state.

They were however stunned as the governorship hopeful shouted at them, saying he was not at the venue to grant press interviews.

He was not helped by his supporters who also claimed they were not at the screening exercise to grant press interviews.

One of them was heard by our credible source also shouting on the pressmen to keep their distance, as their principal was not ready for any press interviews.

It would be recalled how Senator Ademola Adeleke had severally turned down requests by numerous broadcast media houses to feature on their programmes.

A popular example was during the 2018 governorship debates hosted by the BBC and Channels Television where he was deliberately absent.
