Former Senate spokesman, Senator Ajibola Basiru; and the spokesman for Governor Ademola Adeleke, Olawale Rasheed, traded blame over a commotion on seat arrangement at a prayer ground located at Oke-Baale area in Osogbo, the Osun State capital.
Basiru and Rasheed were guests on Channels TV on Wednesday hours after the disturbance at the prayer ground as officials of the state government clashed which led to claims of alleged assassination attempts on the life of Governor Ademola Adeleke from his camp.
Basiru claimed some thugs rough-handled him and ordered him to vacate where he was positioned for the Eid prayers.
The former lawmaker also said he did not see any seat reserved for the governor at the prayer ground.
He also said he did not see any armed strange-looking fellows at the Eid ground and the governor was not in any way threatened.
Basiru also said that there was nothing personal and political with what happened on Wednesday.
