Our attention has been drawn to a news item published on page 9 of The Punch newspaper titled “Reopen Ige murder case,Aregbesola, groups tell FG ”
Ordinarily, we would not have bothered to respond to this jaundice views by Aregbesola and his cohorts parading as human rights, but in order to set the records straight and stop these falsehood, We make bold to say that Senator Dr. Iyiola Omisore (PhD) who was persecuted for almost three and half years and made to suffer unjustly has reopened the case at Federal High Court, Ibadan, seeking N2billions as damages for malicious prosecution.
We therefore wish to advise Ogbeni Aregbesola that if he has new evidence, he should apply to be joined in this case so that the truth will unfold.
It is disheartening that Aregbesola and his ilk have chosen to dance on Ige’s grave several years after his gruesome murder purely for political gain.
When last was Aregbesola seen at Ige’s anniversary for genuine concern for Ige?
Was it not Aregbesola and Tinubu who connived with MIC to parade empty casket all over Lagos as Ige remains which they kept away from Afenifere headquarters upon request as part of conspiracy to play politics with Ige’s death?
If there are fresh facts why didn’t they appeal the judgement on Ige’s murder over these years, why now that election timetable was released by INEC?
Ironically Ogbeni Aregbesola’s first assignment when he was sworn in as Osun State governor was to pardon those who were sentenced to death over the murder of Hon. Odunayo Olagbaju.
Is Aregbesola saying he does not have faith or confidence in the Judiciary that discharge and acquitted Senator Omisore? Why is the judiciary always wrong when things did go according to their wish but the best when judgment is in their favour?
Aregbesola who claimed he has done so much for Osun state to qualify for re-election ought to have presented his so called achievements to the electorate for scrutiny instead of wiping up unnecessary sentiment whenever election approaches.
We want to advice Aregbesola to concentrate his effort on how to reverse the mess he created through the school merger and re-classification that is causing untold hardship and crises in the state.
His policy summersault , ill conceived, ill timed and misguided projects have become his albatross.
