MC Oluomo said: “My attention has yet again been drawn to a video clip circulating online. It came to me as a surprise seeing that people were attaching the video to me and were also quick to state that it was a campaign fee to support the election of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
“Naturally, I would have just ignored it knowing that it’s the handiwork of naysayers. Being in an election session, I also know their malicious intention and the cheap political goal they aim to get with the video. I am however compelled for the sake of clarity to set the record straight.
