A lot has been happening at the ongoing burial ceremony of Davido’s Uncle, late Senator Isiaka Adeleke, at his hometown in Ede, Osun State. According to reports and photos made available, it has been gathered that Ms Idiat Babalola, an ex-aide to the Governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola, was saved by the Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun.
She was saved from being lynched by a restive crowd of sympathisers at the Ede, Osun State country home of late Senator. It was gathered that the crowd of sympathisers, became restive when Babalola came in for the Islamic prayers, ahead of the internment of the two-time Senator and first elected governor of Osun State.
Angry sympathisers demanded that Babalola be made to leave the premises. Babalola who was seated among the dignitaries including the younger brother of the deceased, Deji Adeleke, was chased out by the youths who alleged that the former governor was poisoned by some APC leaders. .
The irate youths said Babalola was being touted to become the running mate of the anointed candidate of the APC. Despite pleas from family members of the deceased , the youths insisted and started shouting and raining curses on her. .
The youths started shaking the canopy where Governors Ibikunle Amosun, Rotimi Akeredolu, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola and Deji Adeleke were seated to chase out Babalola who they described as a betrayer.
Babalola was escorted outside the house by Amosun and his security aides as the youths threw sticks and mango fruits at her.
