“Baba Ijebu” Lottery Owner Kessington Adebutu In Undercover Moves

Charles Oyelesi

Kessington Adebutu, the chief promoter of Premier Lotto the lottery business better known by the street name Baba Ijebu is engaged in an undercover mission.

Sources disclosed the billionaire is making this move concerning the political ambition of his son Ladi Adebutu.

Ladi is unrelenting in his ambition to become the Governor of Ogun state.

Societynow.ng learned his wealthy father has initiated steps behind the scene to give the ambition another chance.

Insiders disclosed that the lottery king has taken it upon himself to cement political ties with those alienated by his son, especially former Governor Gbenga Daniel.

Daniel has emerged as the clear leader of Ladi Adebutu’s party, People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with the death of Kashamu Buruji as a result of complication from Covid-19.

And his support is extremely vital to the ambition of the billionaire’s son.

But there is an issue, Ladi is not really in the good book of the former governor of Ogun state.

The gubernatorial aspirant was a willing tool in the scuttled ambition of Gbenga Daniel to become the National Chairman of PDP.

Outside of this, Kessignton Adebutu convinced Gbenga Daniel to support the gubernatorial ambition of his son in the last general election in Ogun State but ladi “messed up” the arrangement in an unchecked aspiration to have total control of the PDP in Ogun state.

His scheme to edge out Daniel and late Kashamu blew up in his face and left his gubernatorial ambition for the 2019 general election in ruins.

Daniel eventually worked for the victory of the incumbent governor – and rival party, All Progressives Congress candidate – Dapo Abiodun.

Societynow.ng gathered that things have not turned out well for Daniel and his supporters after Dapo Abiodun took power.

“This is what Baba Kess (Kessington Adebutu) is working hard on behind the scene to get Daniel’s support for his son’s gubernatorial ambition” a source stated.

Sources disclosed that though he has deployed his wealth and influence to get other political players estranged by his son’s antics in the last general election to side with him, billionaire Adebutu is working hard on Daniel to make “things easier and guarantee a higher chance of success”

Insiders insist outside of his excesses and inadequacies ,Ladi Adebutu remains the most visible gubernatorial aspirant on the bill of PDP, with a wide range of support base in Ogun State.
