BEVERLY HILLS, May 13, (THEWILL) – The Osun State Government Wednesday said there was no truth in a media report saying the son of the governor was arrested by security agents at the Lagos Airport for money laundering.
In a statement signed by Semiu Okanlawon, Director, Bureau of Communication & Strategy, Office of the Governor, Osogbo, the Osun Government said the son of the governor did not travel to anywhere on the said day and wondered how he could have been arrested.
The statement said: “It has become pertinent to inform Nigerians and others generally that there is no iota of truth in the story being peddled around by some misguided elements claiming that a son of Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun, Kabir Aregbesola, was arrested at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos Tuesday May 12, 2015, with a huge sum of money in foreign currencies…
“Aregbesola has maintained a life of a moderate family man with a set of highly disciplined children who cannot be found wanting on issues of morals and societal values.
“Members of the public are therefore urged to dismiss the falsehood because it is just another handiwork of mischievous minds.”
