Informants claimed she is being labelled a mole of the Ekiti state governor very much up in arms against the leadership of the APC.

According to talks from the grapevine in Oyo state ‘there is a belief that Folake defected to the APC because Fayose needed someone he can trust within their rank..someone with potential to play politics at the national level and provide inside information for him to manoeuvre in his engagements with the APC leaders in and outside his state… and Folake fits the bill. Folake, her husband, Teddy Shine and Fayose go way back…they were together during his ill fated first term and remain one of the select people he retain close rapport with in his current regime’.

According to a keen observer ‘it is a big status downing for not only Folake, but her husband Teddy Shine as well…for his wife to go and be waiting upon Fijabi.

‘You need to understand the class difference between them before now…scandalous best defined it’

Sources however claimed based on the fact that defection back to the PDP looks out of it- and need to stick to alleged plan, Oshinowo is currently exploring means to make something out of the seemingly disgraceful affair.
