Business mogul, Deji Adeleke, has debunked rumours that he is nursing an
ambition to run for the 2018 Osun governorship on the APC platform.
This is contained in a statement on Monday signed by Dele Adeleke.
It described the speculations as false, unfounded and ludicrous.
“Adeleke

talks/plot to make him the governorship candidate of APC or any other
political party,” the statement read.
“Adeleke is not a
politician and has chosen to continue to render his contributions and
service to humanity in his private capacity and through his foundation.
“We hereby appeal to the good people of Osun state and all Nigerians to disregard the mischievous publication in its entirety.”
