The governor’s comments were contained in a statement released by his media aide, Lere Olayinka on Wednesday, March 30, 2016.
It reads:
“Aluko and his likes can continue to run from pillar to post, all their efforts will come to nought and like the Biblical Judas, we will all live to see how those treating him like their man Friday now will dump him.”

“Can Aluko be member of PDP by force even when PDP has said he is not wanted?” In saner climes, Aluko, who by himself confessed to have committed crime should be in jail by now.
“Finally, Aluko can continue with his journey of political perfidy. He can keep running while enjoying the proceeds of his political 419. But like the Biblical Judas, he can only run, he will be caught by his deeds one day.”
Aluko claimed that Fayose had gotten $37 million from Jonathan to rig the elections.
