Wife of the Oyo State Governor, Mrs. Florence Ajimobi has denied reports of her arrest by Metropolitan police in London.
Mrs. Ajimobi described the news of her arrest as the handiwork of the opposition trying to discredit the Ajimobi-led administration in the state.
She however explained that she only took her 14-year- old daughter studying in the states back to school after the holiday.
According to her; “I have a 14-year-old daughter who has been here since 2007. She came to Nigeria for two weeks; we left Nigeria on Sunday morning. That is my mission here.
“I read the report here in England. I was shocked. I read it but there is no iota of truth in everything they wrote. I’m sure it is the work of the opposition and I am surprised that some people can descend so low to write falsehood.
“I am expected back in the country tomorrow (today) morning.”
An evening newspaper had, on Tuesday in its online version, published a report of the alleged arrest in UK. An online agency, Newsleak, also claimed that the wife of the governor had been arrested in London for money laundering.
Meanwhile, the governor has instituted One billion Naira suit against the Independent Communications Network Limited, publishers of PM News for the report.
