Arrested 21 Yoruba Nation Fighters Will Be Tried For Treasonable Felony, Say the Police
Twenty one suspected Yoruba Nation Agitators who attempted the takeover of the Oyo state House of Assembly and governor’s office, at Ibadan, are likely to be charged for treasonable felony.
The Oyo state police commissioner, Ademola Hamzat, made this known on Monday, while parading the suspects at the state police command headquarters at Eleyele, Ibadan.
The police chief said the suspects committed treasonable felony by their acts.
He said no one died as being reported during their exchange of gunfire between the separatists and the police, Amotekun Corps and soldiers.
He, however, said an officer of Amotekun Corps was injured.
The police commissioner said some of those arrested had been listing the names of their sponsors and that police had visited some locations within Oyo state where some incriminating items were recovered.
