Senator Femi Okurounmu Is A Frustrated, Unfulfilled Politician – Osoba

Ex governor of Ogun State, Chief Segun Osoba has disclosed that the attack on him by one of the leaders of Afenifere, Senator Femi Okurounmu was basically borne out of envy.

Osoba gave his response to a media interview granted by Okurounmu where he described Osoba was a double agent and one of the Yoruba leaders who betrayed the late MKO Abiola.

Speaking recently, Chief Segun Osoba blasted Okurounmu by calling him a frustrated and unfulfilled politician who did not succeed in his chosen profession.

His words, “I will not descend into using uncouth, insulting and gutter languages like Senator Okurounmu did by referring to me as a traitor, a security agent and a double dealer. In spite of his sustained attacks on me in the last two weeks, I was unruffled, unmoved as a tested fighter and warrior.

“As for Okurounmu, I will describe him as a frustrated, unfulfilled politician as well as a failure in his chosen profession. His relentless attacks on me are out of jealousy and the major factor is envy and wickedness.

“Yoruba language is highly proverbial and Yoruba will describe Okurounmu’s situation as somebody suffering from a proverb that says, ‘when you are envious, you carry that burden almost forever and an envious character cannot easily say the reason why he is envious, particularly if God has been too kind and generous to the person he is envious of’. That is the situation between me and Okurounmu.”

“My answer to that is I pray to God in heaven and our heroes, many who died in the course of the struggle, particularly those unsung, too many people that suffered that are unsung.

“But I will be specific with our leaders that wherever they are in heaven, I appeal to them to forgive Okurounmu at 80 because insinuation that the military government was after me because I was an agent is false.

“Sergeant Rogers was categorical when he was cross-examined by Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, a renowned authority in the Law of Evidence who was then the Attorney General of Lagos State. He mentioned names of those of us who were marked down and they were instructed to assassinate.”
