The Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, Timothy Owoeye has condemned the killing of Ebenezer Alaro, a member of the All Progressives Congress
The Speaker in a statement by his Media Aide, Kunle Alabi also called on the Nigeria Police to leave no stone unturned in unravelling the circumstances leading to the murder of the deceased.
“The Police and other relevant security agencies must be seen to be alive to their constitutional responsibility of protecting the lives of citizens. A quick investigation into the murder will serve as a deterrent to people who are hell-bent on distrusting the peace of our society. “I want to appeal to our people to allow for peace with the hope that Police will in no distant time resolve the case of Ebenezer Alaro’s killing, the Speaker emphasised.The deceased was trailed to his home and shot dead after he participated in the early morning rally organised by the Speaker to shore up support for the candidates of APC in the forthcoming February 25th election.
He also accused the Osun chapter of the PDP of injecting violence into the body polity of the state, warning the Osun PDP that such ungodly conduct would earn them no good in the long run. The attacks, according to a statement signed by the PDP, Akindele Adekunle, is a continuation of the APC’s pattern of violence to intimidate members and supporters of the PDP from active participation in the upcoming elections.
