Ekiti Origin Allegation: Senator Adeola Threatens Lawsuits Against Hunye And Marcus-Bello 

Posted on September 15, 2026
Senator Solomon Adeola, the Distinguished lawmaker representing Ogun West Senatorial District District and the All Progressives Congress, APC governorship candidate for Ogun State, has threatened to institute legal action against Hon. Abayomi Hunye, a suspended member of APC from Tube, Ipokia LGA and Ambassador Folake Marcus-Bello of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over libelous and false statements made on national television stations about him and his family.
Both Hunye and Marcus-Bello have granted interviews on Channel Television programmes where they claimed that Senator Adeola is an Ekiti State indigene among other libelous claims without presenting any evidence of their allegations.
Senator Adeola has therefore, given the two characters 24 hours to publicly present evidence of their allegations on his state of origin or face lawsuits on their false and libelous allegations on national television that was widely circulated on other media platforms.
“I watched in utter disbelief as these characters that I hardly know utter assertive and outrageous lies about my origin without any proof. One falsely claimed on TV that I am from Ekiti and when asked where exactly in Ekiti went moronically blank and could not provide an answer. The other one was lying about the locations of the graves of my parents as if she was part of the undertakers at the burial all in a futile effort to justify an unsustainable falsehood. Enough is enough. They should produce their evidence in 24 hours or be ready for my lawsuits ” the senator stated.
It will be recalled that the rumour of the Senator’s alleged Ekiti State origin was initially used as a propaganda tool to prevent his emergence as Senator representing Ogun West senatorial district but the gimmick failed to prevent the people of the district voting massively for him at the 2023 National Assembly Elections. This resurrection of the falsehood is pursuant of his seemingly unstoppable move to a victorious outing in the 2027 governorship race in Ogun State.
