The State of Osun Police Command has invited Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) governorship aspirant in the state Mr Iyiola Omisore, to respond to allegations of physical assault brought against him by the recently deceased Mr Isiaka Adeleke, a senator and member of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The invitation was made via a letter dated 20th October. Signed by Mr Umege Uzochukwu, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in charge of the State Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Department, the letter requested Mr Omisore to meet with the DCP on 27 October.
The physical attack took place in April 2014 and was reported to the Police by Mr Adeleke the same year, while he was a member of the PDP and a rival to Mr Omisore for the party’s governorship ticket. Mr Adeleke had said that the attack took place during a PDP stakeholders’ meeting at Ideal Nest Hotel, Oshogbo, capital of Osun State. The deceased senator had claimed that he was set upon by Messrs. Omisore, Jelili Adesiyan, then Minister for Police Affairs; and one Mr Sogo Agboola, a PDP stalwart.
