Offa Robbery: Police asked me to implicate Saraki – Suspect


Some suspected armed robbers that attacked banks at Offa in Kwara State, during their appearance at the Kwara State High Court in Ilorin yesterday
FILE PHOTO: Some suspected armed robbers that attacked banks at Offa in Kwara State, during their appearance at the Kwara State High Court in Ilorin.

A suspect in last year’s robbery attacks on commercial banks in Offa, Kwara state, Ayoade Akinnibosun, on Friday told an Ilorin High Court how the police asked him to implicate the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki.

Akinnibosun and two other suspects, Ibikunle Ogunleye (2nd accused person) and Adeola Abraham (3rd accused person) narrated before the court how police extracted statement from them by force during the course of investigation of the incident.

The suspects also disclosed that the principal suspect in the robbery incident who was a dismissed police officer, Michael Adikwu was shot dead by one Inspector Vincent attached to the police Intelligence Response Team (IRT).

Akinnibosun, Ogunleye and Abraham were examined and cross-examined by their counsel, Mathias Emeribe and prosecution counsel, Razaq Gold, in a trial within trial on how they were tortured and threatened by the police to make confessional statements.

The prosecution witness, Inspector Hitila Hassan, had on Thursday told the court that the suspects voluntarily gave their statements under his supervision.

Lead Prosecuting Counsel, Prof. Wahab Egbewole sought to tender the statements as exhibit but the defence counsel, Mathias Emeribe objected.

Emeribe argued that the statements were not voluntarily taken, noting that they fell short of the provisions of the Evidence Act particularly sections 28 and 29.

At the resumed hearing today, Akinnibosun said “Abba Kyari told me to mention the name of Senate President Bukola Saraki that he gave me the guns for the operations. But I declined to do that contending that my life is at stake.

“He (Abba Kyari) promised that they would reward me handsomely and set me free if I can indict Senator Saraki. When I disagreed they called some policemen to take me back to their cell. During this time, my hands were tied to my legs in the back.”

The suspect added that he was the leader of Kwara South Liberation Movement mobilizing young jobless graduates for the Senator representing Kwara South district in the upper legislative chamber, Dr Rafiu Ibrahim.

“The essence is to secure government jobs for the boys,” he said.

Ayoade Akinnibosun, Ibikunle Ogunleye and Adeola Ibrahim gave graphic details of their horrifying experience allegedly in the police custody in Abuja.

During one of their encounters at the police IRT ‘theatre room,’ they said in their presence Inspector Vincent allegedly shot dead five Fulani men.

‘The theatre room,’ according to them is the generator room of the IRT’s office and it also doubles as where suspects are extra-judicially executed.

They added that it was in the same ‘theatre room that Inspector Vincent otherwise known as ‘Mr. Torture,’ allegedly shot dead Michael Adikwu for failing to indict them in the robbery incident.

According to Ibikunle Ogunleye “they brought the late Adikwu to implicate us and he said he had not met any of us in his life that is why Mr. Torture shot him to death.”

The trial Judge, Justice Halimat Salman adjourned the case to March 25, 2019 for continuation of trial within trial.

Obviously you don,t knw the role of party agents or how election results are collated. Agents of each party at any level is given a copy of the result signed by other party agents and returning officer. The agents report to a central point called situation room for the party. They even keep personal copies if they like.
Let him be living on fool paradise.

No wonder up till now AAC had not press t a single polling unit result from his agents...na that one want to be governor

Some of you can't think again, you depend on nonsense writing by Wlke. How will INEC ask party agent to submit copy of results? Is the agent that conduct election or INEC? Also how reasonable it sounds in your ear that fact finding committee suddenly become election collator.
Stop thinking with your Anus.

INEC have their results sheet from their Ad.hoc staff.

The result need to be corroborated with each the parties as submitted.

Is that clear

I have read lots of commentaries on the rivers state governorship elections. Most of them are disjointed and leaves me wondering what really happened.
Has the popularity of Nyesom Wike waned in rivers?
Did the last election reflect the popular will of River state residents?
Who and Who is behind the AAC that is giving APC and PDP a nightmare in Rivers ?

Given a free and fair playground, what will likely happen is the previous election is cancelled and a fresh election ordered ?
What is the tentative result so far declared in Rivers ??
You want to know what is going on.

Result so far declared is unbelievable, out of 10 LGAs, the AAC candidate is leading in 9 and Wike just One. INEC will have no option than to declare AAC candidate governor elect. New election can't be held in Rivers state now as it will be worst than the former.
When was it announced. Keep decieveing yourself

The Independent National Electoral Commission in Adamawa State has dismissed a Yola High Court ruling on Thursday which restrained it from conducting a rerun of the governorship election in 40 polling units in the state.

A Yola High Court headed by Justice Abdul-Aziz Waziri had on Thursday ruled that INEC should not conduct a supplementary governorship election in the state on March 23, 2019 following a request filed by counsel to the Adamawa State chapter of the Movement for the Restoration and Defence of Democracy, Mr Mustafa Shaba, over absence of the party logo on the ballot papers used for the first round of the election which INEC declared inconclusive.

Justice Waziri had ruled that after going through two affidavits submitted in support of the motion, the request had merit.

He said, “After careful perusal of the annexure one to five of the MRDD, alongside written address of counsel urging me to grant the application, I am of the view that the application is pregnant with merit and must be granted.

“I hereby grant the following order. The defendant herein, the INEC, is restrained whether by themselves, their executives, servants, privies, representative nominees or any other person or persons from proceeding with the supplementary election in respect of Adamawa State Governorship pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice.”

But when contacted by one of our correspondents, the Resident Electoral Commissioner in the state, Kashim Gaidam, said the court lacked jurisdiction over the federal establishment, describing it as possible undue influence.

He said, “It is an order of a state High Court which has no jurisdiction over federal establishments. It is very surprising indeed. Could it be undue influence? Section 87 (10) of electoral law is also relevant. I am sure the commission will issue an official statement on the matter.”

After the first round of election on February 9, 2019, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Hamadu Fintiri, established a lead margin of 32,476 votes over the All Progressives Congress candidate, Jibrilla Bindow, who is seeking a second term in office.

Whether elections have been conducted or not doesn't matter as far as it was done in error and illegal.a court ordered inec not to conduct elections last Saturday and they obeyed.
Tribunal had already been constituted.

The order had no effect on the election

Let the go to the tribunal and stop wasting their time.

APC got this wrong

Oga,a high court restrained inec last week and they obeyed,thats ajeromi constituency.the action is to delay inec until the tribunal is ready and then another order can be secured from them
The election had not been conducted in the said constituency

So this case is different
