The Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN) on Wednesday clarified that the arrested terrorism suspect, Idris Ojo, was not one of the perpetrators of the June 5 attack on St Francis Catholic Church, Owo, but an escapee from the Kuje correctional facility in Abuja.

In a statement signed by Richard Olatunde, his Chief Press Secretary (S), obtained by POLITICS NIGERIA, Akeredolu said there was a ‘mix-up” in the statement issued by the Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor.

Governor Akeredolu acknowledged the confusion the statement has created in the public space, considering that the ugly event of June 5 attack in Owo preceded the unfortunate incident on Kuje prison.

The Governor said there was a mix up in the announcement by General Irabor.

Governor Akeredolu explained that Ojo, who is number 14 on the wanted list of Kuje Prison Escapees was arrested in his brother’s house in Akure, Ondo State capital.

“The announcement of the arrest of Idris Ojo as one of the perpetrators of the June 5 attack on St Francis Catholic Church, Owo was a mix up from the Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor.

“Idris Ojo, who is number 14 on the wanted list of the Kuje Prison Escapees was arrested in his brother’s house in Akure.

“His brother, Jimoh Rasheed Ibrahim, received and accommodated him after his escape from Kuje prison.

“He was thereafter moved and kept in the custody of the security operatives at the same time the attackers of Owo Catholic Church were arrested and brought into custody. Hence, the mix up,” the Governor said.

Government of lie

this baba should've just resisted this unnecessary urge to shalaye.
We can easily connect the dots and see the true picture.

Waiting for Buhari to express shock on hearing this news

I was telling one agbados and cassavas urchins on here yesterday that those arrested were audio and fake but the mofos deh abused his ancestor at home smh...

APC and lies are inseparable.

Better.

This man told us that the attackers are from Mali and trained in Libya, then that they're Ebiras and then this again? Oga, I no believe you.

When you tell one lie, you tell many other lies to cover up that initial lie.

That has been the legacy of the APC and their cohorts since 2014.


And until the APC apologises to Nigerians for their misrule, lies and propaganda, nothing for them.

A senior government official will release a statement in English, another government official will release another statement explaining what the former said in English. These dudes are not fit to run a primary school.

Who vetted the the statement released by Irabor? So Irabor is not in tune with the true situation?

This apc government is not sincere from head to bottom.

The attack in Owo is a political game, it looks like they did that evil in Owo to create bad impression about Atiku in Southwest. The only song they told their ers to be singing for people now in Lagos and other Southwest is don't vote for Atiku because he is a Fulani man but Peter Obi is putting them in confusion now.

Lol... Clowns

Ok n, tell us the names and pictures of the actual suspects.

All progre rhieves congress

This government know what they are doing, posterity will judge them. The arrested terrorists don't have pictures?


Meanwhile we buy your Pi at a good rate.

The nerves and confidence these ppl have is what I find baffling. Na see finish they make dem do these things and no worry about what we think becos they know they've gagged everyone. Imagine the kind of stories that we are being fed

The way the military came up
so quickly to show that the massacre
wasn't perpetrated by Fulani made me
suspicious & now my suspicions have
been vindicated.

Yes, an Ebira could have been amongst
the terrorists to show them the way, but
by the viciousness of the attack, nobody
can tell me Fulani weren't involved.

Most reports from the government
concerning insecurity are usually fake and
just created to make a failed government
look good.❌❌❌❌

They go & bomb a whole village of
innocent farmers and will tell us that they
have killed 50 terrorists and later the
true story comes out.☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

They will always cover up their lies.

Nothing ambiguous in what the CDS said initially....na lazy youths chose not process the correct information for reasons best known to them.

Listen from 8min....to about 13min...CDS never said Idiris OJo was part of Owo attack.

Hmmm

Tinubu is a PLACE HOLDER for gov Shettima, the earlier you people realize this the better oo.

Most of this people pushing this Drug Lord doesn't know there's an agenda to just install him by fire by force and when he is tired and sick before 2 years, Shettima will be swear in as president and more kabiru sokoto will be hiding in his house.

Even Yaradua was way stronger than him before he became president

Affliction shall not rise the second time
