Dr Akin Ogunbiyi, frontline governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP in Osun State has called on Police Command to effect the immediate release of three clerics abducted last Sunday and bring perpetrators of the unholy act to book.
Dr Ogunbiyi who noted that the state has relatively been enjoying peace, wondered why the abductors have chosen this period of political campaigns and consultations to perpetrate the criminal act, urging that the command must not leave any stone unturned in identifying people behind the terrorism and promptly make them face the rigour of the law.
The Governorship aspirant observed that the Police in the state under the dynamic leadership of the Commissioner of Police have been widely commended for effectively policing Osun State and believed that the command will rise to this challenge which may have been engineered to test their resolve and dent their good record.
Dr Ogunbiyi charged that the perpetrators of the act must not be allowed to get away with the devilish act which he believed is loaded with sinister motives arguing that they must have had certain agenda in mind for their selective abduction and for choosing “Father’s Day “to perpetrate the crime.
He also appealed to the State Government and all security units in the state to rise to this challenge and unravel those behind the heinous action as it stands to logical conjecture that the kidnappers may be up to some plan to disrupt the entire peace in the state and cause religious tension.
Ogunbiyi is also appealing to the good people of Osun State to pray to God that those behind this unholy act be apprehended while remaining calm believing that the police would be granted the divine empowerment to live up to expectations.
“Indeed, it is a most dishonourable and blasphemous act to abduct people who are responsible fathers and men of God on Fathers Day :and this is why this desecration must not go unpunished. “he added.
