Ganiyu Oyebanjo, the Special Adviser on Boundary Matters to the Kosofe Local Government chairman, Moyosore Ogunlewe, has accused his boss of orchestrating his illegal arrest and detention for 15 days as a retaliation for exposing alleged financial misappropriation and corruption within the council.
According to him, his arrest was a clear abuse of power and a violation of his human rights.
Speaking exclusively with our correspondent on Wednesday, the aide insisted that his arrest by the police was a diversionary tactic to silence him and prevent the truth from coming out regarding the corruption allegations he raised against the Kosofe council chair.
He narrated that he was arrested in his home on March 11, 2025, by officers of the Zone II Police Command, allegedly on the orders of Ogunlewe. (Punch)
