Principal of Ede Muslim High School, Ede, Mr Khalid Abass by Police
detectives from the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID),
Alagbon, Lagos.
Sourced say Mr. Abass was apprehended over the issuance of result
and testimonial to the flag bearer of the PDP for the September 22
gubernatorial election, Senator Ademola Adeleke.
The
source explained that the detectives on Wednesday laid siege around the
Principal and eventually got him arrested around noon.
He was
said to have been whisked away immediately to the State Criminal
Investigation Department in Osogbo before he was later transferred to
Lagos.
“Yes, it is true that the principal who issued
testimonial and statement of result to our standard bearer, Ademola
Adeleke was arrested yesterday by detectives from Alagbon in Lagos.
“I
gathered that the arrest has to do with discrepancy on date of the
testimonial authorised by the school principal, and the actual date the
Senator finished from the school.
“We thought it was a matter we
could settle here in Osun since there is a reconciliation move in the
party already, concerning every issue relating to our primary election,
unfortunately, he was taken to Alagbon, in Lagos.
“Well, I believe everything is politics, definitely, we shall come out of this without any blemish”, the source said.
Meanwhile,
the Osun State Commissioner of Police, Mr Fimihan Adeoye, when
contacted said he was not aware of the arrest, adding that he was far
away in Abuja on official assignment.
