The Ondo Ekimogun Association in the DMV area of the United States of America has expressed its support for the accountability project undertaken by the Ekimogun Roundtable in the community. They have described the group as embodying the ideals of the late Chief Gani Fawehinmi, a staunch advocate for probity, truth, and accountability during his lifetime.
The group of Ondo indigenes in the United States of America, known as the Diaspora group, conveyed this message in a statement sent to the press by its president, Mr. Omotayo Akinkugbe.
In the statement, Mr Akinkugbe says that with what is in the public glare, Ekimogun Roundtable is not asking for too much by demanding for accountability from Hon Abiola Makinde.
To us, Honorable Makinde is not helping himself and the community by evading his constituents’ enquiries, the core essence of leadership is accountability, hence, he should be honourable enough to present himself for public scrutiny. Instead of answering simple questions about his plenary attendance and commitment to effective legislative duties, he is busy chasing shadows and sponsoring all kinds of groups to attack the Roundtable who only ask him to confirm or deny all allegations against him.
The Ekimogun Roundtable is asking simple and basic questions about Hon Makinde’s legislative performance and how he handles constituency projects. Instead of responding to these questions, Hon Makinde resorted to cheap blackmail. This is a serious disservice on his part.
The Ondo Ekimogun Association DMV wishes to commend the Ekimogun Roundtable on the good works they are doing for the kingdom and encourage them not to relent on their efforts to ensure probity and accountability in Representation despite the attacks and campaign of calumny from Hon Abiola Makinde and his co-travellers.
