Ekiti Commissioner Of Police Redeployed Over Fayose’s Impeachment Drama by bamidell(m): 5:25am On Apr 09, 2015
Taiwo Lakanu, the commissioner of police in Ekiti state,
has been redeployed after he reportedly connived with
thugs affiliated with Governor Ayodele Fayose to attack 19
state legislators who were on their way to the legislative
assembly to begin impeachment proceedings against the
governor.
Our police source disclosed that Mr. Lakanu personally
selected some rogue policemen led by one divisional police
officer (DPO) on Mr. Fayose’s payroll to carry out the
assignment of escorting the lawmakers to the state
legislature to commence the process of impeachment.
However, the state commissioner of police also made
covert plans with a controversial army officer in the state,
Brigadier-General Aliyu Momoh, to ambush the lawmakers
at an army checkpoint in the town of Itawure. Our sources
said that, as soon as the 19 lawmakers arrived at the army
checkpoint, General Momoh had them arrested and
detained. General Momoh was the officer implicated in a
scandal captured on an audiotape in which several PDP
officials, including then Minister of State Musiliu Obanikoro
and Minister of police Affairs Jelili Adesiyan, ordered the
officer to unleash troops on supporters of then Governor
Kayode Fayemi who was squaring off with Mr. Fayose in a
governorship election.
Shortly after General Momoh’s detention of the Ekiti
legislators, a group of thugs reportedly hired by Governor
Fayose arrived at the scene and began assaulting the
lawmakers. Our sources said the legislators managed to
scamper into their vehicles and flee to Osun State,
escaping what could have been a brutal attack by Mr.
Fayose’s thugs.
SaharaReporters learnt that the Inspector General of Police,
Suleiman Abba, this evening ordered Mr. Lakanu relieved of
his job after he investigated a petition detailing the
connivance of the state commissioner of police with
Governor Fayose.

The commissioner didn't hear that "parade has changed gear" when he decided to support Fayose and the thugs.

Parade has indeed changed gear!

The commissioner was redeployed because he had refused to take side with fayose and his thugs any longer, he arrested some of his aides, commissioner and relatives with weapons and voodoo two days ago.

The commissioner also followed the changing gear.
