Charly Boy and the OurMumuDonDo group
According to SaharaReporters, the pressure group OurMumuDonDO says
it is immediately launching a ‘formal inquiry’ into the allegations of
bribery rocking Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa ‘Charly Boy, convener of the
group.
An audio exclusively obtained by SaharaReporters on Wednesday
showed Charly Boy acknowledging he collected money from Festus Keyamo,
spokesperson of President Muhammadu Buhari Presidential Campaign
Organisation in the 2019 presidential election.
Responding on Thursday in a statement by Adebayo Raphael, its National Secretary, the movement vowed to get to the root of the matter.
“Fellow Nigerians, I wish to say that it has become extremely
important that I react to the sordid developments that have recently
emerged in the OurMumuDonDo Movement,” read the statement.
“Firstly, I must confess that I am utterly disappointed by the
audio recording that went viral between last night and this morning, of a
conversation between the present Chairman of the group; Mr. Charles
Oputa, and a former member, Mr. Deji Adeyanju, where the former is
alleged to have confessed to his dealings with the regime of General
Muhammad Buhari and the APC while the latter was languishing in Kano
Central Prisons.
“It is with a heavy and pertinent heart that I offer an
unreserved apology, on behalf of myself and the other members of the
OurMumuDonDo Movement, to the Nigerian people who we have hitherto
proclaimed to represent in all our actions and activities as a pressure
group for the last three years. My sincere hope is that you all will
view this development as a necessary event needed to sanitise our civic
space and reinvigorate our collective commitment to the struggle for
social change.
“Secondly, I must inform the general public that the
OurMumuDonDo Movement will now commence a formal inquiry into the body
of allegations that have been made public in recent days, and the most
appropriate decision will be determined by the Board of Trustees in line
with the group’s constitution.
“In conclusion, I would like to emphasise that the purpose for
which OurMumuDonDo Movement was founded has not changed. If there are
black sheep in the group, working against the group’s objectives, we
will find out and deal with them accordingly. Thank You.”
