“Very correct. He was not allowed in. Security details at the gate said,” Madam is with the key to the gate,” he said.

It was gathered that security men at the venue prevented them from entering the venue, which almost turned into an argument with security men attached to Olaniyan.

However, the Deputy Governor, Abdul-Raheem, and Ashamu left the venue after much effort to gain access into the venue failed.

Recall that both the state government led by Makinde and Ajimobi’s family had been at loggerheads since the demise of Makinde’s predecessor.
