There has been crisis between the governor ,Oluwarotimi Akeredolu and

It was also learnt that for several hours, the Deputy Governor argued with the police commissioner.

In the video , Agboola confronted the police commissioner saying “ that is what you are doing the CP ( not allowing me to go out ). Are you not a police officer ? If am leaving the state House, what is your concern about it ?
Are you an APC or PDP chairman ?

Do you know how many hours I have spent here ( at the gate ) ? I don’t understand. I personally paid for this vehicle ,not even government.

That is the reason you shouldn’t have put yourself in this mess because it is totally messed.

Why would police be used for God’s sake ? My brother , let me tell you, you people can not repeat what happened in 1983 in Ondo state and it is unfortunate that they want to use the police to cause this but Ondo state people will resist you with everything. ”
