Omisore storms Senate, keeps mum

Former deputy governor of Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore, who was recently discharged and acquitted by an Ibadan High Court over alleged complicity in the murder of former Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Chief Bola Ige reappeared in the senate Tuesday after over a year of absence.

Omisore, presently vice chairman, senate committee on Industries, arrived the National Assembly complex late Tuesday morning, accompanied by a few aides and a mobile policeman.
At the lobby, the lawmaker was seen pumping hands and exchanging animated pleasantries with a few senators present, including Senator David Brigidi.

Perhaps to familiarise himself once again with the chamber which he left in unsavoury circumstances last July, the former deputy governor went inside, accompanied by Brigidi, dusted his seat and surveyed the environment for a few minutes.
When Omisore emerged from the chamber, he headed straight to his office at room 223, second floor of the main complex, dubbed the white house.

At his office, Omisore was said to have been given a rousing welcome by his staffers, who had not see their boss for well over a year.
When Daily Sun visited the office, the atmosphere was quite electrifying as everyone around spotted wide smiles.

Although efforts to get a one-to-one chat with the Senator failed, his private secretary, one Adebowale assured that Omisore would "talk another day, but certainly not today. He is just trying to settled down."
Omisore, who later left the Assembly, accompanied by Senators Ogunwale and Folarin, looked calm. He equally calmly and politely turned down pressures from senate correspondents to speak on his trial and acquittal.
"Gentlemen, kindly excuse us today. I would certainly talk with you latest Thursday, this is a promise," the Senator assured, as he pumped hands with newsmen who chorused "you are most welcome, sir."
