Oladipupo Adebutu, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the 2023 Ogun State governorship election, has been detained by the Department of State Services (DSS).
This was confirmed on Monday by the Ogun PDP Publicity Secretary, Kayode Adebayo, who disclosed the development in a statement.
“This is to inform members of our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party, that the leader of the party has indeed been detained by the DSS on charges yet unknown,” Adebayo stated. “However, our principal has called for calm and directed all members, supporters, and well-wishers to remain assured that this time shall pass. It is one of the prices of our democracy.”
