The Osun State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress ,APC, has called out Senator Ademola Adeleke-led Government in Osun State over plot to harass, kidnap and kill some of its leaders and members.
The Party Chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal made this call during a press conference held on Monday at the Party secretariat in Osogbo, disclosing that the plot was in order to silence the voice of the opposition.
Lawal alleged that a “Task Force has been secretly set up by Governor Adeleke and it’s populated by the PDP thugs and notorious criminals on the wanted list of the police” have been billed to forcefully retrieve some vehicles duly approved for past government functionaries.
He said the decision of the government is to further provoke the law-abiding citizens, injure them and precipitate violence in the state.
The APC Chairman said, “On the threat to lives and properties of the leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress, Security reports available to us revealed that the handlers of the state government will anytime from now carry out the evil plan by hiding under the excuse of implementing the White Paper recently issued by the Osun State Government.
“This is even as members of the opposition frowned at the protracted shutdown of the courts in the state by the Senator Ademola Adeleke led-government, describing the action as “inhuman” and security threat given high number of lawsuits that would have been adjudicated and disposed off for justice.
“The APC also called on the Chiefs of the security agencies in the country, particularly Inspector General of Police, IGP, Kayode Egbetokun to come to the aid of its members who have been arbitrarily blacklisted for series of violent attacks by the state government.”
