There is a case of Emir Ajagungbade, an Appointee of the governor, who is facing criminal charges of murder, terrorism and kidnapping at a federal high court. The case of another appointee of the governor, Nurudeen Alawonle, arrested recently with a service pistol and ammunition, is yet to settle,” a commentator explained.

In the evening of 10/10/2010 when the PDP wanted to do the primary election of councilors, one of my friend Adepoju Siju visited me at my home and told me that he wanted to visit his girl friend Tosin who is a daughter of one Alhaja and he said that he would sleep at my house at night because I am the only one that is living in a six bedroom flat. When it was 8’0 clock in the night, my friend Adepoju Siju called me on my phone. He said I should help him to call one Sunday and his group to my house for a business. I delivered the message to the boys and they followed me obediently to my house. On getting to my house, Siju Adepoju told those boys that we are all going to guide one councilor till day break in the following morning because of the primary election that was going to hold on the following day.
When it was midnight Adepoju Siju called all of us together and said that we are going to Alhaja’s house, the mother of his girlfriend to rob her of some certain amount of money. He said Tosin the daughter of Alhaja will open the door for us when we get there. He also said that he has arranged with Tosin to make sure that she open the door for us.When it was exactly 12 0’clock midnight, we left my house.
