Ejigbo Pepper Women Assault Update: OPC Begins Hunt For Suspects
The manhunt was instituted today after the founder of the group, Dr Frederick Fasehun, ordered his members to hunt for the culprits and turn them over to law enforcement agents.
You recall in the last update, husband and father to the women who were assaulted had claimed members of the O’odua People’s Congress (OPC) were involved in the brutalization.
But in a statement released today, Dr Frederick Fasehun, urged members of the public to discountenance insinuations that members of the OPC had a hand in the incident.
According to him:
The treatment meted out to them violently contradicts everything OPC stands for. OPC is an organisation specifically dedicated to promoting the corporate interest of the Yoruba nationality and upholding the dignity of the Yoruba man or woman. Authentic members of OPC could be easily recognised through identity cards bearing their personal signatures, and issued by the group’s national headquarters.”That even the police can testify that OPC vigilante operatives never resort to extra-judicial treatment, torture or killing of apprehended offenders irrespective of the nature of the offence.
He urged relevant authorities to bring the criminals and their godfathers to book.
