Mrs. Taiwo Obasanjo, wife of former President Olusegun Obasanjo has cried out loud alleging that her twin brother, Chief Kenny Martins wants her dead.
In a petition to the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, dated 4 April, 2017, she alleged that those assigned to kill her include her twin brother, Chief Kenny Martins, her future daughter-in-law, Tope Adebutu and future mother-in-law, Ms Rosemary Dacosta.
According to the petition, she said: “I was reliably informed that the three persons mentioned above have perfected their plans to assassinate me because I requested the court to shift the wedding date of my son from the month of May to June 2017.”
“They also have a plan to start smear campaign on my person using various media platforms such as newspaper, internet etc.”
“Their third plan is to frame me up on false charges and get me arrested and detained by the police from the 10th – 14th May, 2017 and also to involve the military police to achieve their plans.”
“Sir, this issue reported here is neither a small matter nor a figment of my imagination because sometime during the time of late Head of State , Gen. Abacha, when Daddy Obasanjo was in prison, the late Stella Obasanjo got the military to detain me at DMI Apapa by Frank Omenka on false charges.”
“Sir, what is unfolding now is not a wedding preparation but a desperate attempt to kill me because I told Rosemary Dacosta and her daughter Tope Adebutu to allow the wedding to hold after the month of May 2017.”
“Chief Kenny Martins is the leader of the planned assassination on my life. Sir, I am reporting this issue so that you can please use your good office to step into the situation because there is a deep strange desperation attached to the wedding of my son which is now do or die wedding ceremony for them.”
You will recall that Mrs Taiwo Obasanjo filed a suit at an Ikeja High Court, seeking to stop the wedding of her son, Olujonwo Obasanjo, scheduled for May 11, 2017 and her husband, ex-President Obasanjo and the father of the bride, Sir Kessington Adebutu (Baba Ijebu) were respondents to the suit.
According to her, wedding invitations had been sent out and she has been excluded from the preparations for the ceremonies. She said she also received prophesies and warnings from men of God that Olujonwo, her son, who turns 34 on June 1 should not do or be involved in any elaborate celebration before his birthday.
Meanwhile, she wants the court to compel Adebutu and Obasanjo to shift the wedding to a date after June 1 after she had appealed to Adebutu and Mrs Rosemary Dacosta, the mother of the bride, Tope Adebutu, the bride-to-be as well as Chief Kenny Martins. Hence, Justice Lateefa Okunnu has fixed April 10 for hearing of the Suit No: ID/262FPM/2017.
