Youth Ambassador of Ogun State in addition to house and cash gifts.
I relayed this development today, when I played host to Olamilekan Moshood Agbelesebioba AKA Laycon in my Oke-Mosan office in Abeokuta.
We invite the public to monitor the following criminal cases against defendant police officers in Ogun State:
1. The State v. Inspector Wasiu Lawal - Murder trial coming up for hearing on 10 November 2020 at the Ipokia Division of the High Court of Ogun State.
We congratulate and rejoice with a proud daughter of Ogun State, whom I adopted some months back to support her career, Ms. Tobi Amusan on her world record-breaking (12.06sec) gold victory in Women's 100M Hurdles.
I am not an emperor by any chance and this is not my family inheritance.
I am holding this position in trust for all the people of this state and I have vowed to be fair, just and equitable and this is the solemn agreement I made between the Almighty God and myself.
With a deep sense of gratitude and a heart full of appreciation, we sincerely say a BIG THANK YOU to the good people of Ogun State for entrusting us with yet another four-year mandate.
I have however instructed the Commissioner of Police to ensure the quick release of detained protest organisers today, and only investigate those apprehended while directly committing the acts of vandalism.
On my instruction, the Attorney General has reviewed the evidence in the investigation case file in respect of the three suspects that were remanded in a custodial centre on 12th October, 2020, Ogun State has decided not to charge them with any offence.
