In a statement titled “Rigging claim, letter to Britain: Obasanjo not responsible – Aide,” Akinyemi maintained that the “viral trending story on the alleged plan by the former president to collude with the electoral body in the presidential election of February 25 is completely false.”

He said apart from the open letter dated January 1, 2023 and the one addressed to the renowned historian, Prof. Toyin Falola, on his 70th birthday, there had been no other public or private letter written to anybody by the former president.
