himself illegally as the state Governor and illegally empowered to do so by one
Casmir Obi who has since been expelled.

The letter signed by the Association's General
Secretary, Boniface Itodo reads in part,
"The attention of the Performing
Musicians Employers Association of Nigeria (PMAN) ably led by Mr.Pretty Okafor
has been drawn to a publication linking one popular Fuji musician in person of
Maroof Alujo, accused of raping a 15-year-old Girl in Kwara State where the
said musician resides. We must inform the general public that Maroof Alujo has
been operating illegally as PMAN Governor of Kwara state chapter, illegally
empowered by one expelled Casmir Obi (Uncle
P) and his cohorts to perpetrate illegality in Kwara State. The PMAN leadership
headed by Pretty Okafor do not have representation of persons with questionable
character across state chapters.
We learnt Mr Maroof Adebayo is currently in Police net
for raping a 15year old girl name withheld in Kwara State.
Meanwhile, a close source to Alhaji Maroof Alujo, name withheld said, "Maroof Alujo isn't the state's governor, rather he is the PMAN chairman in Offa, Kwara state. There has been misunderstanding between him and some people over the association's politics, and this could have facilitated the problem he has found himself, but it's hard for us to believe that he could have done such."
All efforts to speak with Maroof Alujo proved abortive as his number given to us was not available
