Killers of Afenifere leader’s daughter arrested
Suspected killers of Afenifere leader’s daughter have been arrested.
The National Secretary of the pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Mr Yinka Odumakin, revealed that the killers of the daughter of their leaders Pa Reuben Fasoranti, Mrs Funke Olakunrin, have been arrested.
Odumakin said this in a statement released on Monday that the killers were arrested by the men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Ondo State Police Command.
Odumakin also said the four suspects mostly northerners were arrested in Ondo State by the police.
He also said that the driver of the deceased had also been arrested.
“We commend the dedicated officers who made the arrest just as we wait for a thorough investigation to follow.
“We have resolved to encourage the police to do their job properly.
“We appreciate all Nigerians who have encouraged our 94-year-old leader in this troubling season. It is our prayer that criminals will not go unpunished again in our country.”
Olakunrin was killed by armed men on Ore-Sagamu Expressway, last year July.
