Osun Amotekun Corps Aids Police in Oyeyemi Murder Probe

The Osun State Amotekun Corps announced that it voluntarily handed over four of its operatives to the Osun State Police Command to aid in the investigation of the murder of Olalekan Oyeyemi, also known as ‘Emir,’ who was killed at a motor park in Ile-Ife. This incident occurred on September 13, during a clash at Mayfair motor park.

Oyeyemi was preparing for an appointment as the Chairman of the Park Management System, which is intended to replace the National Union of Road Transport Workers in managing public motor parks in the state. The Corps, through its spokesperson Yusuf Idowu, clarified that the police did not arrest the operatives, but rather, the Corps Commander, Adekunle Isaac Omoyele, handed them over for the sake of transparency and thorough investigation.

The Corps emphasized the importance of distinguishing between arrest and voluntary cooperation and reiterated its commitment to professionalism and accountability in security matters.
