The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused Deji Adeleke, the brother of the state governor Ademola Adeleke and father of singer Davido, of being entangled in this web of contract racketeering, adding that his name has surfaced severally in the controversial borehole projects allegedly installed in selected wards in the state.

The accusation was contained in a press release made available to newsmen by the APC Director of Media and Publicity, Mogaji Kola.

According to Kola, the Adeleke family members and officials have used their closeness to government and privileged positions to corner undeserved contracts against extant laws abound.

He said Davido's father was alleged to have secured a borehole project for N14 million, many of which ended not being built.

"The similar borehole projects, but with all the ancillary facilities, were built in the health centres rehabilitated under our administration for less than N2 million each," he said.

"It is painful that imaginary and audio borehole projects were allegedly superintended by Dr Deji Adeleke for insanely N14 million while similar projects, which are still functioning till today, were built for less than N2 million each during the administration of Oyetola.

"It is not a gainsaying that Dr Deji Adeleke has been operating behind the scene as the unofficial Governor-General of the state; Mrs Dupe Adeleke-Sanni, the governor's elder sister has secured the role of the Governor-in-Charge of Administration for herself while the Governor who was elected has been titular and ridiculously playing the role of a Governor-in-Charge of Entertainment to the consternation of the right-thinking members of the society. The situation is that bad in our state.”
