Wives of some personnel of Osun Amotekun arrested by the Nigeria Police following the killings of Akinlalu have protested over the continued detention of their husbands.
The women during a protest on Monday in Osogbo, called on the governments, Nigeria Police, former state governors and eminent politicians to intervene.
One of the wives, Ajiboye Olusola asked the Federal Government and Nigeria Police to release their husbands.
She revealed that ever since their arrest and detention in Abuja over four months they have not heard from them.
She said, “They should release our husbands for us. It is high time they released our husbands. Since over four months that they have been arrested, we have not heard from them.
“We have been patient enough. The suffering is too much. They did not do anything at all. We are pleading with the Federal Government and Nigeria Police to release our husbands for us.”
Another protester, Mrs Idayat Oladokun, echoing the same appeal asked those in authority to ensure the release of their husbands because they are the breadwinners of their different families.
“Our husbands are our breadwinners and since their incarceration, our families have been suffering. We are suffering and we cannot endure this anymore. They should release our husbands.
“Our husbands have been arrested since October without any reason. The day my husband was arrested, he left home feeling me he was going to work but he never came back.
“I am begging and pleading to those in authority to intervene, help us and release our husbands.”
