A drama ensued yesterday night when the Ondo State Police Commissioner, Bolaji Salami, stopped the Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi, from leaving the Government House in Akure, the state capital.
NewsmakersNG learnt that the CP held Ajayi hostage for a long time and also prevented him from leaving with his official vehicle.
The deputy governor is currently at loggerhead with Governor Rotimi Akeredolu over the former’s plans to defect to the Peoples Democratic Party from the All Progressives Party.
A 41 seconds video that had gone viral shows the CP was seen standing in front of the deputy governor, telling him he will not allow him (Ajayi) to leave the government house.
“You have defected, your letter has been brought to my office,” the CP sternly said in the video.
Ajayi then lashed back, “If I have defected, what is your own? CP, are you the chairman of APC? Are you the chairman of PDP? What is your concern if I defect?
