    Ex- Minister, Adesiyan Calls For State of Emergency Declaration in Osun State

    Former Minister of Police Affairs, Jelili Adesiyan, has called for declaration of state of emergency in Osun State.

    Adesiyan, in a statement yesterday in Osogbo, hinged his call on Section 305 of the Nigerian Constitution.

    He said: “As a watcher of events in Osun State in the last few months, we could see breakdown of law and order in the state. Beginning from local government crisis where the governor of the state refused to obey the pronouncements of the Court of Appeal and sought to glorify the state High Court above Court of Appeal in a case already decided and un-appealed at the highest court of the land”.

    “Where the chief executive indulges in disobeying the law, the resultant effect is a state of anarchy. This single event leads to the deaths of scores of innocent people, including reinstated Chairman of Irewole Local Government, Remi Abass.

    “With the political instabilities in Osun State and having incompetent governor to handle the situation in the fragile state, I think it is better to invoke the relevant portion of the constitution to restore peace to Osun State.”

    Adesiyan lamented that people were killed during the control of council crisis, adding that during the recent communal clash, scores of people were also killed and displaced.
