Ife/Modakeke: Osun Police Arrest Five, Parade Other Criminals, Urge Residents To Be Cautious

Posted on September 22, 2021

 

 

The Osun state police command in its effort to make sure that Osun state is secured for all has counted another success achieved in the recent time.

 

 

This was publicized through a statement released by the command during a press briefing that was done today, Wednesday, 22nd of September 2021, VAM News report.

 

 

Here is the statement released in Details:

PRESS BRIEFING BY THE COMMISSONER OF POLICE OSUN STATE POLICE COMMAND, CP OLAWALE T. OLOKODE AT THE COMMAND HEADQUATERS, OSOGBO OSUN STATE.

 

 

Gentlemen of the press, I am delighted to welcome you all once again, to another great success the command has recorded. The command will continue to work tirelessely to ensure the state is free from all kinds of criminal elements. Below is the brief of the success recorded:

 

 

1. MURDERER FROM IFE/MODAKEKE
11/05/2021 AND 20/08/2021
Suspects: – (I) AKINGBALA OLAKUNLE ‘M
(II) OWONIYI SEGUN ‘M’ A.K.A AGBEDE
(III) DARAMOLA MUIDEEN ‘M’ A.K.A EDE
(IV) SHINA ADEVEMI ‘M’
(V) AWOTINDE ELIJAH ‘M
EXHIBIT: –
(I) ONE DOUBLE BARREL GUN
(II) FIVE LIVE CATRIDGES
(III) ONE KNIFE
(IV) ONE UTC CUTLASS
(V) ONE AXE

 

 

The event that led to this murder incident as a result of land / farm disputes between the two communities viz:

 

 

Modakeke/Ile-Ife, It would be recalled that11/05/2021, two people were murdered on their way to their farmlands. These people were from Modakeke indigenes. This incident generated anger in the mind of Modakeke youth, and some hooligans from modakeke armed themselves with different weapons to take revenge against Ife indigenes for the killing. The police arrested the situation and obstructed their ugly attempts.

 

 

Similarly on 20/08/2021 at Alope village, five men whose names are: (1) Oladele Ismaila ‘n’ (2) Oladele Afeez ‘m’ (3) Taye Animashaun ‘m’ (4) Shina ‘r’ and one other, were going to their farmland. Unknown gunmen ambushed and killed them.

 

 

This unwarranted and barbaric murder provoked the Modakeke indigenes, because they presumed that the people killed were their people. They decided to take revenge on the Ifes, their efforts were thwarted by the Police. I would like to add that the five deceased were not from Modakeke as presumed by the people of Modakeke.
