Taiwo Obasanjo Petitions Police over Alleged Plot to Assassinate Her

Taiwo Obasanjo

Recall that last month, Taiwo Obasanjo, wife of Former President Olusegun Obasanjo sued her husband and Baba Ijebu Founder, Kessington Adebutu over her son Olujonwo Obasanjo‘s wedding to Tope Adebutu. 

Taiwo Obasanjo is seeking for the postponement of the wedding. She said she had received warnings and prophesies from men of God that her son should not be involved in any elaborate celebration before his 34th birthday on June 1.

Taiwo has now alleged that her twin brother Kenny Martins and Tope are planning to assasinate her.

In a petition to the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, dated April 4, 2017, Taiwo Obasanjo alleged that her would-be mother-in-law, Rosemary Dacosta was also involved in the plot to kill her.

She claims they all have a plan to get the police to arrest and detain her on trumped up charges between May 10 to 14, 2017 when the wedding is scheduled to take place.

The petition reads:

I was reliably informed that the three person mentioned above have perfected their plans to assassinate me because I requested the court to shift the wedding date of my son from the month of May to June 2017. They also have a plan to start smear campaign on my person using various media platforms such as newspaper, internet etc..

Their third plan is to frame me up on false charges and get me arrested and detained by the police from the 10th -14th May, 2017 and also to involve the military police to achieve their plans.

Sir, this issue reported here is neither a small matter nor a figment of my imagination because sometime during the time of late Head of State, Gen. Abacha, when Daddy Obasanjo was in prison, the late Stella Obasanjo got the military to detain me at DMI Apapa by Frank Omenka on false charges.

Sir, what is unfolding now is not a wedding preparation but a desperate attempt to kill me because I told Rosemary Dacosta and her daughter Tope Adebutu to allow the wedding to hold after the month of May 2017.

Chief Kenny Martins is the leader of the planned assassination on my life. Sir, I am reporting this issue so that you can please use your good office to step in to the situation because there is a deep strange desperation attached to the wedding of my son which is now do or die wedding ceremony for them.”
