March 25, 2025 The Alimosho GAC Member, Princess (Dr.) Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire (OFR), C/o OSSAP-SDG, Abuja. Your Excellency, Mama Abuja, MEMO TO MY LEADER 1: THE TRUTH TO THE PATH OF PEACE AND UNITY IN ALIMOSHO PROGRESSIVES THE PREAMBLE I should not pretend to believe that my colleagues in entire membership of our "Joke Orelope Camp" of the Alimosho Progressives would surely be surprised to hear me address you as 'Mama Abuja' in plausible interchange as 'Mama Foreign' or 'Mama Marina'.

Image
Razaq Adedeji Jimph The Onisheri of Isheri, HRM, Oba Dr. Ibrahim Olasunkanmi Lawal-Bello (COP), has described the publicised query given to him by the Executive Chairman of Egbe-Idimu LCDA as unwarranted and "baseless", noting that it had no other purpose than being a deliberate act of intimidation and intentional blackmail to coerce him for whatever the cause he could have premeditated. The monarch said this while giving his account of the issue surrounding the recent brouhaha over the stretch of land under the double Powerline in the Isheri Olofin corridor in Alimosho LGA.
