Adeleke Orders Arrest After Ally's Murder in Osun
Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has mandated the immediate arrest of individuals allegedly involved in the murder of his close associate, Comrade Olamilekan Oyeyemi, known as Emir Ajagungbade, who was shot dead on Sunday at Mayfair Garage in Ile-Ife. The shooting reportedly stemmed from a dispute over the control and leadership of a motor park.
Oyeyemi, a member of the Accord Party, was actively engaged in transport and motor park management in the state. Following the incident, Adeleke directed Osun State Commissioner of Police, CP Ibrahim Zungura, to apprehend all suspects linked to the killing.
The governor emphasized the need for law and order, stating that no one would be exempt from accountability. He also ordered rival groups to vacate the motor parks involved in the dispute and announced plans to reintroduce the Park Management System to mitigate future conflicts.
Oyeyemi had previously faced legal issues but was granted bail in April 2024.
