Aminatu Abiola Defends Solomon Adeola's Origin Claims

Aminatu Abiola, the stepmother of Solomon Adeola, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Ogun State, has publicly dismissed allegations that her stepson is from Ekiti State. In interviews, Abayomi Hunye, a suspended APC member, and Folake Marcus-Bello of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) claimed Adeola has ties to Ekiti.

In a viral video, Abiola challenged these claims, stating that neither Adeola's father nor mother is from Ekiti and demanded that opponents provide evidence within 24 hours or face legal action. She clarified that she is from Iworoko in Ekiti and detailed her family background, asserting that Adeola's father, Oteko Ayinde, was buried in Lagos and that his mother, Alhaja Lamlatu, is from Owo.

Abiola emphasized that Adeola, whose birth name is Sule, converted to Christianity and changed his name to Olamilekan, and reiterated that he has no connections to Ekiti.
