Daniel's media team characterized Abiodun's assertions as an attempt to distort historical facts, emphasizing that Daniel's electoral successes were achieved through his own efforts and popular support rather than any alleged assistance from the governor. The statement highlighted Daniel's significant political mobilization during his campaigns and criticized Abiodun's claims of having influenced the outcomes of the elections, asserting that Daniel's recent senatorial victory was clear and uncontested. Furthermore, the media team called into question the governor's narrative of political support, citing instances where Abiodun's administration reportedly discouraged participation in Daniel's campaign events.
