The famous Onagoruwa family of Odogbolu in Odogbolu Local Government of Ogun state, has dissociated itself from a write up purportedly written by one of the family members attacking the personality of Governor Dapo Abiodun.
In a letter signed by its head, Onagoruwa and Baba Oba of Odogbolu Kingdom, Emeritus Professor Tola Atinmo and the Secretary of Onagoruwa Descendants Union, Rev. Wale Onagoruwa, described the write up as fake and fictitious.

An acclaimed member of Onagoruwa Family, AOO Olu-Onagoruwa had written against Governor Abiodun tagging him a governor without honour and with dirty secret.
But in a statement by the Onagoruwa Family, the faceless AOO, who claimed to be a writer and vegetable farmer based in Ilishan-Remo, was disowned, saying such a person does not exist in the family.
While asserting that, there is no person in the family with such a name and based in Illishan-Remo, the family therefore urged Governor Abiodun and members of the public to disregard such a write up, describing the writer as “not only a coward, but a con artist with or without sponsors who wants to deliberately bring our cherished family name into disrepute, controversy and dishonour”.
The family’s letter reads in part: “The attention of the Onagoruwa Descendant Union (Home and Abroad), has been drawn to a write up purportedly written by a member of the family named “Dr AOO Onagoruwa,” the Onagoruwa Family hereby states that the name is fictitious and also that no such person exists in our family. We further state without any fear of contradiction that, there is no Onagoruwa (living or dead), who lives in Illishan-Remo, an author, writer and public analyst.

“The writer of the article deliberately decided to use our family name to lend credence to his write up thus drawing public opinion/attention to the article. The public is hereby notified, particularly the office of His Excellency, the executive Governor of Ogun state, that we the Onagoruwa family (home and abroad), therefore declare that the author is not and has never been a member of our family, and that no such person with that name or details exists in our family or in reality.
“The writer is a coward and a con artist who whether by him or herself, with or without sponsors wants to deliberately bring our cherished family name into disrepute, controversy and dishonour.”
