Adeneye said: ”The voice in the forgery which they paraded as that of Governor Amosun is not that of His Excellency and a simple search on the internet for any speech by him would convince those who are not familiar with his voice that the producers of the audio recording did a poor and unintelligent imitation.
“The peddlers of such falsehood appear to have a wild scheme which appears to be part of what may be turning out to be the wider script, by some unpatriotic elements, aimed at further causing divisions in Nigeria.”
Alos, Isa Gusau, who spoke on behalf of Governor Shettima accused a yet-to-be identified presidential aspirant from northern Nigerian as being the mastermind of the phoney tape.

“The peddlers of such falsehood appear to have a wild scheme which appears to be part of what may be turning out to be the wider script, by some unpatriotic elements, aimed at further causing divisions in Nigeria.
”It is meant to feed into, as well as further exacerbate the already highly combustible wave of agitation in the land. This evil plot will not work.
”Indeed this is not the first time some unpatriotic and vile individuals would spread falsehood about the person of Governor Amosun.
Gusau, Governor Shettima’s spokesman, similarly debunked the audio. He said the voice purported to be Shettima’s was not his.

Gusau supplied a video of Governor Shettima’s interview with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) as further proof that the voice in the audio tape was that of an impostor.
”The caller who is being presented as Governor Shettima speaks very fast as against the relatively slower tone of Shettima.
‘’The caller had at the opening of his 20 minutes conversation with a so called Governor Amosun, first introduced himself as a PDP member whereas Governor Shettima is known to be in the APC.
“The caller went ahead to contradict himself as he promotes and at the same time castigates Buhari while also insulting National Leaders that include the Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar, Minister of Transport Rotimi Amaechi, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State and also insulting people of the entire southeast.
“The entire aim is to set up the leaders against Governor Shettima and also incite Nigerians from the southern part of Nigeria against him,” Gusau explained.
Shettima’s spokesman noted that the latest plot was part of series of strategies being deployed by a particular northern Nigerian who aspires to contest the 2019 Presidency and is waging war against some Governors including Shettima.
