Olajide had pushed a false narrative on his Facebook account about some disinfecting machines bought by the Lagos State government of Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
He posted the picture of the machines accompany by a text in which he falsely proclaimed Makinde procured it and went to say Oyo State was battle ready for the scourge.
The disgraced aide’s defence that his account was compromised by alleged members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, did not save him from losing his job on Friday on the premise of feeding the public with misleading information, according to his termination letter issued by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Mrs Olubamiwo Adeosun.
It reads in part: “I wish to convey the approval of His Excellency, Governor Seyi Makinde, on the termination of your appointment as Special Assistant (Digital Media), with immediate effect.”
It could be recollected that one Akeem Olatunji a personal assistant to Gov. Makinde was sacked for financial misappropriation just few months into his administration.
The sack of Adigun Ibadan S.A on digital media did not go dowm well with majority of people,while some considered Gov. Makinde’s decision as being harsh ,saying that nobody is above mistake that he Governor Seyi Makinde too has made a lot of mistake since he became Governor and nobody plan any impeachment against him
Some of his adies on condition of anonymity described Gov. Makinde as a man with no forgiven spirit.
