The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Osun State has decried the alleged use of some police officers by the state governor, Ademola Adeleke to hunt, intimidate, humiliate, arrest and dehumanise the major opposition party members in the state.
The APC also alleged that at the prompting of the state governor, many of the leading lights of the party in the state have been invited and investigated by the police over frivolous reasons.
In a statement by the party chairman, Tajudeen Lawal and obtained by DAILY POST on Friday, the party alleged that the actions were carried out with the intention of caging the members of the opposition.
According to the statement, Information has it that Mr Akin Adeyi, a chieftain of the APC and respected socio-political commentator on the social media platforms, has been invited copiously within a couple of days by the Zone 11 Command of the Nigeria Police, with its headquarters in Osogbo, based on some frivolous petitions written by an appointed political functionary in the administration of Governor Adeleke.
Further investigation also revealed that strange telephone calls from police officers from both Zone 11 and the Osun State Police Command have been needlessly extended to some of the APC chieftains and members, inviting them over frivolous petitions by the governor and his cohorts.
