Chief Olu Falae

A group known as the Defence for Yoruba Peoples Right has also condemned the alleged attack on the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

The police authorities in Ondo and Osun states have jointly resolved to identify the policeman who shot at

This is coming after Falae reported that a policeman, who was escorting a bullion van, shot at his car.

Speaking to Punch, the Osun state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Femi Joseph, said “What I can say for now is that the case has just been officially reported to the command (Ondo) and we have started investigation; even though the incident is outside our jurisdiction, we will still investigate it.”

Also, Falae’s Personal Assistant, Capt. Moshood Raji (Rtd.) confirmed the development.

Raji said “The Ondo police commissioner invited his counterpart from Osun to decide which command should handle the matter. So, Osun CP asked his Ondo counterpart to go ahead with the investigation since Chief Falae resides in Ondo and if there is a need to transfer the case to Osun, they would know later.”
