Senate Majority Leader, Opeyemi Bamidele has denies reports that he was involved in a fight with Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
On Wednesday, a report by Controversial Journalist, Jackson Ude, alleged that Bamidele and Akpabio exchanged heavy punches with each other at the Senate Cafeteria. In a swift reponse, Bamidele urged the general public to ignore the ‘fake news’.
The statement made available to the press read in part; “Our attention has been drawn to fake news currently being circulated on the X handle of one Jackson Ude, a known serial blackmailer and cash-and-carry journalist.”
“The post is about an alleged altercation and physical fight between Leader of the Senate, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele and President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio on Wednesday.”
“For the record, it is a verifiable fact that Senator Bamidele has never been involved in physical assault in over two decades of his political trajectory, not even when he was a young man leading the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) as President.”
Bamidele claimed that the report was formulated to create crisis within the Senate. “We are aware that the fake news is meant to cause disaffection within the Senate and by extension; heating up the political system.”
“To think that the Senate Leader, President of the Senate and other principal officers of the Senate together received the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. YU Dunhai and his delegation few minutes after leaving the plenary on Wednesday is a significant testimony against Ude’s imagination.”
“Further to this, photographs of the Chinese envoys with the leadership of the Senate were widely published in today’s major national newspapers. It is equally verifiable that the Senate Leader and the Senate President both drove out of the National Assembly premises in the same vehicle yesterday.”
