Auxiliary you mentioned here is no where to be found in Oyo State politics. Power is transient. No form of oppression in Oyo State

- Osun APC Tells Police

...Condemns Adeleke's Govt, PDP For Defending Criminal Suspect

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has commended the state command of the Nigeria Police for its proactive approach in ridding the state of criminal elements who have been hiding under the canopy of the government to disturb the peace of the state.

It would be recalled that the police acting on information arrested one Wakeel Nurudeen Alowonle, the chairman, Osun State Transport Management System (OSTMS), together with other suspects accused of sundry crimes ranging from robbery, kidnapping and serial murder, in Osogbo, the state capital, on Monday.

The police disclosed that a British Barretta Pistol, six rounds of 9 mm live ammunition and an expended empty shell were recovered from the vehicle belonging to Alowonle which he openly confessed in a video recording to have been given to him by a police officer.

Further information from the police disclosed that Alowonle, a close associate and appointee of Governor Ademola Adeleke, was shot at while trying to escape after he had successfully escaped from the police grip on the way to the police station, initially.

It is not a new thing that a suspected criminal is arrested by the police. What however, is bizarre and worrisome is that the state government and the state chapter of the PDP would find it expedient, tactical and necessary to make a statement in support of the suspect who has a history of unresolved crimes hanging on his neck.

This hasty defence of a suspected criminal by Governor Adeleke's government has provoked some fundamental questions about the government's commitment to protecting the citizenry of Osun State which is the uppermost duty of any government which is alive to its constitutional responsibility.

A situation where a government and the ruling party have turned themselves to the megaphone of a hardened criminal is a pointer to the abysmal low level to which the government of Governor Adeleke has been ridiculously and shamefully reduced to.

That the ruling PDP could descend so low to be defending a suspected gunrunner and contrabandist go a long way to accentuate the maxim that an organization cannot be better than the quality of those running its affairs. The Osun PDP is a classical example of an irredeemable disaster which management is unfortunate to be in the hand of a certified bibulous personality while the government is being tendered to by some opportunistic caretakers due to the verifiable pathological challenges of the supposed number one man in the state.

In a sane society, the government should genuinely partner with the law enforcement agencies in combating crimes and not brazenly aiding and abetting same as it is the case with the close associate of Governor Adeleke.

There have been cases of fugitives and wanted criminals of the PDP extraction taking an undue advantage of the statutory immunity of Governor Adeleke who have been suspiciously hiding in the state Government House and his convoy to evade arrest. The list of such wanted suspected criminals is endless.

This unsavoury development is pointing to the suspicion that the PDP government of Senator Adeleke is harbouring dangerous criminals ahead of the 2026 governorship election. It is our conviction that the people of Osun State deserve better than a government that is glaringly and brazenly prioritizing the interests of criminals over the expected constitutional safety and well-being of its citizens.

It is a high level of absurdity and preposterousness that the PDP-run government in Osun State which is bereft of the nitty gritty of the iron-cast information in the possession of the police is acting the role of a meddlesome interloper to the consternation of the right-thinking members of the society instead of assisting the police in a case of a suspected criminal found in possession of firearms which he had openly confessed to.

Was it an omission or a deliberate act on the part of the state Commissioner for Information, Mr Kolapo Alimi, who issued the statement on behalf of the state government in the defence of the arrested associate of his paymaster for refusing to tell the whole world what a private citizen was doing with the instruments of death found on him at the time of his arrest, assuming the suspect is one?

Haven't we been vindicated with our previous allegation that the PDP-run government in Osun State is piling up arms and ammunition with which they intend to harass, maim, kill the members of the opposition APC in the state with a view to rigging the 2026 governorship election?

We, as a party, commend the efforts of the police in making the state unhabitable for the criminals and are enjoining the proactive statutory force to continue to work in tandem with the other sister security agencies in the state in order to restore the lost glory of the state as the hitherto most peaceful in Nigeria before the coming of Governor Adeleke and his goons into the political theatre of the State of the Virtuous.

With the efforts of the Police so far, the constant beating, attacking and maiming of Osun citizens in broad daylight has been reduced to the barest minimum. Therefore, the Police must not, under whatever guise, succumb to the blackmail from the State Government over the arrest of Alowonle.

It will interest the discerning members of the society why Alowonle rejected the earlier invitation of the police over a petition alleging threat to life written by one Ido-Osun Prince Nurudeen Ademola Jimoh, a businessman, whose cars, house and shopping mall were destroyed at the Oke-Baale area of Osogbo in a rift over an allegation that the businessman snatched Alowonle's girlfriend.

It will also satisfy the curiosity of the peace-loving members of the society for the wounded and hospitalized Governor Adeleke's associate to disclose the identity of the police officer he said gave the British Barretta Pistol to him as reflected in the recorded video message that has gone viral.

It was appalling that the PDP-run government in the state could callously choose an option of clandestinely promoting a commercial drivers' protest yesterday whereby all the commercial vehicles were prevented from operating their business without considering the avoidable pains and inconveniences caused to the commuters who were left with the option of having to trek long distances to and from their destinations in Osogbo, the state capital.

If the state government wasn't behind the protest where some innocent inhabitants were harassed, beating up and wounded, it would not have been possible to make it a reality with the resultant effect of punishing the inhabitants of the state capital.

PoliticsOsun NURTW Hails Arrest Of Wakeel Nurudeen Iyanda Alowonle by Truths9ja(op): 8:14am On Nov 21, 2024
The Osun State chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, NURTW, led by Kazeem Oyewale, has backed the Police over the arrest of Wakeel Nurudeen Iyanda Alowonle.

Alowonle, the Chairman of the Osun State Transport Management System, was arrested and shot on the stomach by the Anti-Kidnapping Squad of the Osun State Police Command late on Monday.

Oyewale, who cleared the air that members of the union were law-abiding citizens and not criminals, implored the Police and other security operatives to fish out the killers of NURTW members murdered in November 2022 by unknown persons.

In a statement released on Wednesday in Osogbo, the Osun NURTW chairman described Alowonle as an impostor and mere political appointee of the State Governor, Ademola Adeleke.

Oyewale also disowned Alowonle and his group, saying they are not members of the NURTW in the state, noting that the alleged criminal conduct.

According to him, Alowonle’s alleged criminal conduct was against the union’s principles and ideals.

“The arrest of Alowonle and the recovered dangerous ammunition in his possession were clear indication of what he was appointed for by the state government.

“The apprehension of Alowonle by the Police is a confirmation of the fears of the Union over the last 24 months, when the state government brought him and other criminal elements to disrupt transport activities in the state.

“The gun is a service pistol designed for the police. Alowonle must be asked where he came about it?

“On the arrest of a notorious Nurudeen Wakili Alowonle, a self-appointed Leader of the road transport workers in Osun State, who was found with guns and ammunition on Monday, 18th Day of November, 2024.

“First of all, we want to state that Wakili Alowonle is an impostor. He is not a member of our Union, the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW). He is a mere appointee of the state government imposed on the road workers.

“We are law abiding citizens. We don’t move around with guns and ammunition. We believe only armed robbers, kidnappers and assassins go around with guns and ammunition as Alowonle was found to have done.

“The arrest of Alowonle is a confirmation of our fears over the last 24 months, when the state government brought him and other criminal elements to disrupt transport activities in the state and we believe that with the arrest, the Police authority will do the right thing by fishing out the bad eggs in the Police who Alowonle said they supplied him with guns and ammunition.

“The trending video shows it is a police gun and it is important to find the source. Since the gun is a service pistol for the police, he must be asked where he came about it? The Police must find out which policeman supplied him the gun and ammunition.

“We also want to use this medium to appeal to the Police to fish out killers of 7 members of our Union killed in November 2022 immediately after the inauguration of Governor Ademola Adeleke as Osun State Governor, among whom Wakili Alowonle, has been severally mentioned. The killers of these innocent souls must face the full wrath of the law without further delay.

“We don’t support crime in the NURTW because we believe only criminals support criminals,” the statement said.

Students, Residents, Others Stranded As Transportation Activities Suspended In Osun

There was palpable fear in Osogbo, Ile Ife, Ilesa, and other towns in Osun State on Wednesday morning, as commercial transporters suspended their operations, leaving students, residents, and travelers stranded.

The move, which resulted in the disruption of economic and social activities, was in response to the directive from the Osun State Transport Management System (OSTMS) leadership.

Osun Defender reports that the OSTMS Secretary, Alhaji Mukaila Popoola, announced the strike in a statement issued on Tuesday in Osogbo, citing solidarity with the union’s Chairman, Mr. Iyanda Alowonle, who was allegedly shot in police custody by Superintendent of Police, SP Moses Lohor.

Alhaji Popoola condemned the act, describing it as an attempted assassination and demanding justice.

Meanwhile, in Ile Ife, the Great Ife Students’ Union alerted students and the public about the disruption of the Town Gboro bus services, which usually cater to transportation needs within the university town.

The union attributed the shutdown to the ongoing strike by commercial drivers across Osun State.

In a statement signed by the Union’s Public Relations Officer, Aka Daniel, said, “The leadership of the Great Ife Students’ Union wishes to inform all Great Ife students and the general public that Town Gboro buses will not be in operation tomorrow, Wednesday, November 20, 2024.

“This development is due to an internal conflict within the leadership of bus drivers in Osogbo, which has resulted in a directive for all public transport across Osun State to observe a 24-hour strike.

“In light of this, the Union has made arrangements for the Union buses to assist students in reaching their various destinations during the period of the strike. Additionally, commercial motorcycles [okada] will also be available for transportation.

“According to the leadership of the “Town Gboro” drivers, bus services are expected to resume operations by Thursday, November 21, 2024.

“We regret any inconvenience this temporary disruption may cause and urge all students to plan their movements accordingly. Thank you for your understanding.”

However, the strike has left many struggling to commute between major towns like Osogbo, Ilesa, and Ile Ife. Markets, offices, and schools across the state reported low turnout due to the transportation crisis.

To gauge the extent of the disruption caused by the suspension of commercial activities, Osun Defender spoke with several affected individuals, including students, traders, and workers stranded in key areas like Osogbo, Ile Ife, and Ilesa.

Mrs. Abiodun Adeola, a trader in Osogbo, expressed frustration over the lack of transportation. She had planned to transport goods to the market but was forced to stay at home.

“This strike has completely disrupted my business for the day. I rely on commercial buses to carry my goods to the market. It is only Okada riders and private cars that are operating. Now, I’m stuck, and my customers will have to go elsewhere. This is a huge loss for me,” she lamented.

OAU Students Speak

At Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), the disruption of Town Gboro buses left many students struggling to move around Ile Ife. While some managed to use the Union’s buses, others resorted to commercial motorcycles.

Tosin Ajayi, a 300-level student of Economics, said, “The Union buses are helping, but they can’t meet the demand of all the students. Many of us are left waiting for hours or paying extra for okadas. I hope the drivers resolve their issues quickly.”

Another student, Bukola Adeoti, added, “I appreciate the Union for stepping in, but this situation has exposed how much we depend on these buses. If this strike continues, we’ll face more challenges.”

Mr. Adekunle Adebayo, a civil servant in Ilesha, described the situation as chaotic.

“I was at the bus stop for over an hour, hoping to find a vehicle to Osogbo for a meeting. Eventually, I had to use an okada at triple the usual fare. The government must intervene to prevent a repeat of this situation,” he said.

Calls for Peace

Residents and commuters called for dialogue between the OSTMS leadership, the state government, and the police to resolve the crisis.

“I understand their grievances, but this method punishes ordinary citizens more than anyone else. The authorities must ensure that justice is served while protecting the livelihoods of citizens,” said Mr. Munirudeen Jamiu, a resident of Osogbo noted.

Alowonle: Osun Transport Workers Reportedly Unleash Havoc In Osogbo

There was palpable fear in Osogbo, Osun state capital on Wednesday morning, as members of the Osun State Transport Management System (OSTMS) reportedly took to the streets, leaving scores injured and properties damaged.

It was gathered that the transport workers stormed Ọlà-Ìyá, Oroki Estate, Òkè-fíà, Old Garage, and other parts of Osogbo and injured scores of people, who had made it out early for their normal businesses.

The unrest follows the controversial shooting of their Chairman, Mr. Iyanda Alowonle, who is currently on life support after being shot by a police officer.

Osun Defender also gathered that passengers were disallowed from accessing public transport, due to today’s strike by OSTMS officials.

However, Governor Ademola Adeleke, in a statement on Wednesday issued by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, has called for calm and urged transport workers not to take laws into their hands.

The Governor assured residents that justice would be served, revealing that the Inspector General of Police had ordered the arrest and prosecution of Superintendent of Police Moses Lohor, who is alleged to have shot Mr. Alowonle in police custody.

Meanwhile, the Police authorities are yet to confirm the arrest of Lohor, with multiple reports claiming the affected officers are on their way to Abuja for interrogation.

According to the statement, “Amidst tension in Osun, Governor Ademola Adeleke has called for peace to allow the authorities to investigate and deliver justice on the attempted murder of Mr Alowonle Iyanda, the state motor transport system chairman.

“The Governor particularly pleaded with transport workers statewide not to take laws into their hands and allow state and federal authorities to address the issue for justice to prevail.

“The Governor noted that he had spoken to the Inspector General of Police and that immediate actions have been directed by the police authorities to bring to book those who shot the State Park Management System chairman.

“I call on Osun transport workers to maintain peace and not to take laws into their own hands. I have acted on this sad incident. I spoke with the police Chief and I had a closed-door meeting with the Commissioner of Police. Justice will be served.

“We will not allow agents of violence to destroy the peace and stability of our dear state. Do not be provoked to violence. Go about your normal duties while we handle this serious threat to the peace of our state”, the Governor was quoted as saying.

“Meanwhile, following the fatal shooting of the Chairman of Osun State Motor Transport System, Comrade Iyanda Alowonle, the Inspector General of Police has ordered immediate arrest and prosecution of Head of Police Anti-Kidnapping Squad in Osun State, Moses Lohor and members of his team for attempted murder.

“This was confirmed by the Special Adviser to the Osun State Governor on Security, Samuel Ojo Esq after a closed door meeting between the Governor and the State Commissioner of Police.

“Moses Lohor had shot Mr Alowonle in the abdomen at the police station after his arrest over a domestic brawl with a neighbor. The park chairman is currently on life support at the Intensive Care Unit of the Osun State Teaching Hospital, Osogbo.

“Mr Ojo narrated that the police authorities frowned at Moses’ conduct as unprofessional, illegal, unauthorized, and against operational code, noting that Moses and his men are about to be moved to Abuja this morning.

“We can confirm that the police authorities at the highest level have acted decisively on this matter. A clear punitive directive was issued by the IG. Mr Governor has directed we follow up to ensure that justice is served”, Mr Ojo noted.”

Elon Musk is the Top Partner of Rhapsody of Realities, Says Apostle Femi Lazarus

Apostle Femi Lazarus recently responded to growing inquiries about whether Elon Musk, one of the world's richest men, pays tithes. In his statement, Lazarus emphasizes the partnership between Musk and the Christian daily devotional Rhapsody of Realities, refuting criticism over the issue of tithing often directed at Nigerian pastors.

Apostle Femi Lazarus, a prominent Nigerian cleric, recently responded to questions about the practices of billionaire Elon Musk, particularly whether he pays tithes. Lazarus, speaking during a service, highlighted the irony in criticisms directed at Nigerian pastors for emphasizing tithing, noting that Musk, one of the world's wealthiest individuals, is one of the top partners for Rhapsody of Realities

Rhapsody of Realities, which has been endorsed by Musk as a top partner, has drawn significant attention for its widespread distribution and influence within Christian communities globally. While Lazarus did not delve deeply into Musk's personal giving habits, his remarks were meant to challenge those who criticize pastors for their teachings on tithing.

The Osun State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of the Chairman of Osun Park Management System (OPMS), Nuruden Alowonle.

Alowonle was appointed OPMS Chairman by the Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke.

News of his arrest was shared on social media by Prince Aderemi, an aide to the former governor of Osun State and current Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Gboyega Oyetola.

He said Alowonle is “accused of armed robbery, kidnapping, multiple murders,” adding that he had “earlier fired gunshots on police before he was apprehended.”

The second spokesperson for the Osun State Police Command, ASP Giwa Alade Emmanuel, confirmed the arrest to our correspondent.

He said, “According to what I know about the case, it was reported at the Oja Oba division and the CP directed that it should be transferred to the anti-kidnapping squad for discreet investigation. The case is still under investigation.”

He said Alowonle and others were intercepted and arrested on Sunday along Ring Road in Osun after receiving credible information about their planned attack on a complainant.

Despite resistance, the police successfully overwhelmed them and conducted a search on them which led to the recovery of a Berretta pistol, he said.

He added that Alowonlo is facing a case of unlawful possession of firearm, malicious damage and attempted murder.
