Kashamu Denies Assassination Accusation By Daniel
ABUJA—Senator Buruji Kashamu, PDP, Ogun East, has denied the claim by former Ogun State Governor, Gbenga Daniel, that he sent assassins after him.
In a letter addressed to Inspector-General of Police, Idris Ibrahim yesterday, Kashamu said:

He merely wants to turn the heat on his perceived political opponent and perpetuate the illegal caretaker in Ogun State.”
