There was anxiety in the camp of the Ogun State governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun over the alleged infiltration of 'black sheep' who were described as the loyalists of Senator Olalekan Adeola that leaks the government's secrets to him.
Amosun was said to have uncovered one suspect, his Special Assistant on Media,Ogunpola Damillola and has reportedly sacked him.
Damoche as fondly called had been defending Amosun's government since he became governor of the state.
But, his loyalty was suspected and was reported to have been caught allegedly hobnobbing with Senator Adeola, popularly called Yayi.
Senator Adeola is a Senator representing Lagos West, but eyeing governorship seat in the coming 2019 election in Ogun state.
Yayi as fondly called has pouched some supporters of Amosun in many local government areas in Ogun state two years to the election.
PLATFORM TIMES gathered that Amosun camp has reportedly launched a secret detective measure to uncover anyone who is still in government, but, has loyalty for Yayi.
Damoche became number one scape goat as he was acussed of having serious relationship with, Yayi, who is marked as a perceived government enemy.
It was gathered that after caving into the pressure by some party bigwigs and top government officials, the governor who had reportedly ordered the sack of Damoche changed his mind and accepted his resignation letter .
Confirming his resignation , Damoche while responding to a post on a Facebook account, said he had already resigned.
He said "I have already resigned and moved on. It's an honour to have been part of the success story of Senator Ibikunle Amosun.
"He's one of my greatest benefactor and I will always hold him in high esteem. I have no regrets defending and promoting his government".
Further findings have shown that his problem with Amosun emanated from a report from a driver in the government house who exposed Damoche of romancing with Yayi.
Inner source reported that, the driver saw Damoche lodging in the same hotel with Yayi and raised the alarm.
According to the source, Damoche did not go to the hotel to meet with Yayi. He had never been disloyal. He went on a separate mission to a hotel where coincidentally Yayi was lodging.
"But, a governor House driver saw him and told high authority.
"He was summoned and questioned over the allegation and he narrated his own side of the story to the governor , but, the governor chose to believe that driver story.
"The governor was not happy at all and left for him Damoche should be sacked but, pressure was too much on him which prompted him to ask the former media aide to resign".
