The wife of the Oyo State governor, Mrs Florence Ajimobi, who was allegedly arrested by London Metropolitan Police for money laundry, described the
report as a rumour sponsored by people playing dirty politics.
P.M.NEWS had reported on October 30, 2012 that the Met confirmed to them the arrest of Mrs. Ajimobi in London, with the
sum of 400,000 pounds and thousands of US dollars, valued at N500million.
However, during a telephone conversation with the First lady, she asid she was in London to take her 13 years old daughter to school.
The telephone encounter between her and the newsmen went thus:
Journalists: Good evening.
Mrs Ajimobi: Good evening. How are you?
We are fine. Is it true that you have been arrested in London?It
is a lie. I don’t know what they are talking about and where they got the
information from. I left Nigeria on Sunday, to take my daughter back to school
and hopefully I should be in Nigeria tomorrow (today). I don’t know where they
got that rumour from
Comments have also revealed that the elegant first lady has, since asumption of office, travelled abroad 52 times in 17 months.
Mrs Ajimobi has threatened to sued P.M.NEWS in the tune of N1billion Naira
Imagine that the money laundry and the numbers of travel are not correct, how will our educational system grow when the number one citizens of the state take their children abroad to school?
