Olufemi Atoyebi, Ibadan
The Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Bayo Adelabu, was recently involved in an accident which nearly claimed his life.
An Ibadan based online news medium, PMParrot, said on Thursday that the accident happened on September 25, 2017, while the CBN Deputy Governor was on his way to Lagos to catch a flight to Abuja.
Adelabu is being touted as being interested in contesting the 2019 governorship election in Oyo State. Although he had yet to associate himself with any political party or declare his intention publicly, some are already speculating that he is the preferred candidate of Governor Abiola Ajimobi as his successor because of their closeness and the financial facility that Adelabu has attracted to the state from the CBN.

A source close to the Adelabu family also confirmed the accident to our correspondent, saying that it occurred around 6pm at a spot close to Redeemed Christian Church of God on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
According to the source, Adelabu was travelling in a convoy of a few vehicles when a vehicle suddenly collided with the Sports Utility Vehicle that was conveying Adelabu to Lagos.
