In an exclusive interview recently, he said “There were series of complaints against Abiodun by stakeholders in the music industry. The petitions attached to this story were brought forward to the Special Fraud Unit, SFU, Ikoyi in Lagos for investigation, because after this impostor had collected all the money from multinational companies, he paid no salaries to the staff for over one year.”
Iseli explained further, due to his craftiness, inconsistency and fraudulent activities, “Admiral was impeached by a National Executive Committee, (NEC) meeting 3 weeks ago. He shunned his legal impeachment and went to Oshogbo to elect himself PMAN President again in the most ‘kangaroo election’. I can assure you that those he gathered for the election were no registered members, because my Secretary General Dike has the authentic register of all registered members. I want Nigerians to know that Abiodun is not the legal PMAN President. He should immediately stop to parading himself and collecting money by deceit from members of the public. There is a case in the Appeal Court (PMAN versus Dele Abiodun) and until the Appeal court decides otherwise I am still the elected PMAN President. We shall call in proper elections and the united PMAN (without Abiodun) will elect a credible, acceptable leader.”.
Efforts to reach the embattled faction PMAN President failed at press time, as he refused to pick his mobile phone. Also, investigation by our correspondent showed that employees of the music union are ready to hold Abiodun to ransom any time he enters the national secretariat. In short, Abiodun allegedly operates the daily activities of the union from his sitting room in Ogba, Lagos.
