Ighodalo slammed the former governor with a N20 billion lawsuit.
The governorship candidate, through his counsel, Ayo Asala ,SAN, & Associates, also sought an immediate retraction and apology for the false, defamatory, and malicious comments which should be published in at least two National Television Networks and three nationally circulating newspapers.
He noted that the allegations by Oshiomhole were baseless, false, and malicious, describing them as another of such defamatory fabrications and statements made by the Senator representing Edo North Senatorial District in the recent past.
According to him, the fabrication of the unfounded and false story is a figment of Oshiomhole’s imagination intended to denigrate his good character and reputation for the political purpose of advancing the sinking fortunes of Oshiomhole’s party and candidate in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Edo State.
