A 31-year-old man, Oluwaseun Fakoyejo, was on Wednesday arrested
by men of the Ogun State Police Command at the main bowl of the MKO Abiola
Stadium, venue of the inauguration ceremony of Ogun State Governor Prince Dr Dapo
Abiodun.
The Command’s spokesman, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi stated that “the
arrest of the suspect followed an intelligence report at the disposal of the
Command that some hoodlums were going to be at the stadium purposely to foment
trouble which made the police to be more vigilant during the ceremony.
Not quite long after the departure of the Governor and some
other dignitaries, the SARS operatives deployed at the venue got information
about the hoodlums’ fomenting trouble and threatening people with dangerous
weapons”.
Oyeyemi said the policemen succeeded in arresting one of the
miscreants while others escaped. One locally made single barrel pistol and four
live cartridges were recovered from the suspect.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Bashir Makama ordered a
