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.

Naija politics always interesting

SAHARA REPORTERS reporting anything that is against PDP and their supporters, as they they claim to be incorruptible, they should make haste in reporting APC flaws should they go wrong.
Though, I have this strong belief that one day we NIGERIAN's will celebrate GMB more than the way SOUTH AFRICAN's are celebrating Nelson Mandela.








All these high ranking politicians defecting to APC at this last minute should be told that it's not good for our democracy, cos if we have two strong political parties, anyone in power will be forced to deliver in order to retain the post, but if it's one dominant party as our politicians are trying to turn APC into, if they choose not to represent the interests of the people there will be no strong opposition party to compete with them.



Heard Nuhu Ribadu is now on its own.
Shame on Aliyu Idi Hong

Please leave fayose alone

Obasanjo is the master planner. GMB can easily forgive him and move on but obj would not rest until he sees him outside the government house.

Fayose is not a good politician, a good politician would never take stuffs personal but reverse is the case for fayose.

There's no permanent friends/enemies in politics but fayose has successfully created permanent enemies for himself, i don't see him bowing for obj in the next 20yrs.

I don't pity him, i only pity the woman who agreed to have him as husband, anyways love they say is blind.

One day bushmeat go catch the hunter

In case
