Nigeria’s Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu, has been in the news lately for avoidable reasons. First, it was revealed that he had no NYSC certificate, secondly, he was recently screened out of APC’s governorship primaries in Oyo State.
In an interview on Channels TV’s “Sunday Politics” yesterday, he alleged that Ajimobi who recently indicated that he would be running for the Senate after his tenure as governor, does not possess NYSC certificate.
Adebayo Shittu blamed Governor Abiola Ajimobi for his ordeals, stating that the governor is trying to edge him out of the race to Agodi Government House. He revealed that he has “on good authority” that Governor Ajimobi also skipped the national youth service scheme.
He further stated that his disqualification was allegedly orchestrated by Governor Ajimobi, to get him out of the race because the governor knows that he will jail him if he becomes the next governor of Oyo State.
