NURTW Chairman Nurudeen Alowonle Wanted for Murder
The Osun State Police Command has declared Nurudeen Alowonle, the factional chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), wanted for the murder of Olalekan Oyeyemi, also known as Emir. Commissioner of Police Ibrahim Zungura announced this on Monday, detailing that six suspects have been arrested in connection with Emir's death.
The police are actively pursuing Alowonle, Adeyemi Ojo (also known as Sibi), and other individuals linked to the crime. Preliminary investigations suggest that the arrested suspects were allegedly mobilized by Alowonle and Ojo to carry out the attack.
One suspect, Hammed Olalekan Dauda, was reportedly found with a locally made firearm and identified Alowonle as the supplier. The investigation is ongoing, with the police working to clarify the roles of those in custody and those still at large.
The Osun Amotekun Corps has also contributed to the investigation by handing over four operatives to assist the police.
