Police detain three of my men for arresting Fulani warlord, Iskilu Wakili – OPC leader

The Oodua Peoples Congress, on Sunday, said the men of Nigeria Police Force in the Oyo State detained three OPC operatives for arresting notorious Fulani warlord Iskilu Wakili, who has been accused of sundry crimes in the Ayete area of Ibarapaland in the state.

The PUNCH had reported that farmers and residents of Ayete lived in perpetual fear of Wakili who was accused of displacing them from their farms.

It was gathered that Wakili, who is said to be the leader of the herdsmen in Ayete worked with dozens of herders who are his disciples. Together with his battalion, they allegedly seized hectares of farmlands at Ayete, raped the women in the rustic town, and kidnapped their rich men for ransom.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with The PUNCH on Sunday, Adedeji Oluwole, the OPC sector coordinator who led his operatives and other vigilante groups to arrest Wakili, said the suspect was nabbed on Sunday morning.

Oluwole, the Federal Capital Territory OPC coordinator, who is also an indigene of Igboora, said he relocated four months ago to Ayete to bring Wakili to book after security agencies failed to arrest him.

The OPC leader said it took over four days of continued operations and surveillance to nab Wakili and three of his accomplices.

According to Oluwole, more than 10 OPC operatives went on the mission. He said Wakili’s men shot fiercely at the OPC operatives before they were eventually nabbed.

He, however, expressed shock that the police detained three of his men after they handed over Wakili.

“We took Wakili and the three others from Igangan to Igboora and handed them over to the DPO at Igboora. The name of the DPO is Ajayi Mark. As I am talking to you, they have taken them to Iyaganku at the State CID in Ibadan with three of my boys,” Oluwole told The PUNCH on Sunday afternoon.

Continuing, he said, “When we took Wakili to the police this morning, the police said we should take Wakili to the hospital first which we refused because we are not in a position to do that. We told the police that they have been complaining all these days that they wanted to arrest Wakili and now we have brought Wakili to their doorstep, they should take over.

“Nobody touched Wakili, nobody hurt him, there are no traces of any hurt on him. He is an old man and we had promised the whole world that we won’t hurt them but we would arrest them for the whole world to see who is Wakili because all these while, he has been a faceless person, nobody knows him. We didn’t beat him or harm him. When we nabbed him, we put him inside a vehicle and handed him over to the police.

"The DPO then said he got a signal from the (Commissioner of Police) in Iyaganku. They have taken three of my men to Iyaganku now.”

When ed, the Police Public Relations Officer in Oyo State, Olugbenga Fadeyi, did not respond to calls put to his line. A text message sent to his phone was also not replied to as of the time of filing this report.

You have no right to arrest anyone so release him

Well expected

Gani Adams and Igboho should start warming up for some jail time too. When Ojukwu was warning all the south about this doom, they thought he was joking.

My country
I fear who no fear Nigeria security

Nigeria jagajaga if buhari hand over Fulani will suffer. But he will not hand over to south something is going on. Nigeria media are stupid why can they demand for interview whit so call buhari. I don't understand that useless country of yours their will be a meeting tomorrow in Kaduna after that one they will known have one in Aso Rock. I'm following them I will do what it take to get some information from that meetings I'm scared of them they just rat to me. Fork DSS I'm all ways whit them from nest month people should avoid traveling whit air plane use your car or public transport. I have some information which I will not give up here. There is dangerous meeting going on and that meetings is only Fulani no Hausa man there. From known please avoid air plane and political public gathering. I don't have mosh time known to give some other things

No be say them kill am. o.Na wa o. Anyway police is your friend, maybe they want to have a little discussion with your boys

You see why killing him on the spot was the best Idea..??

BuhariAPC Nigeria.....?? Forget...it

I am tired of this country, how can a police man lap criminal inside keke?

I knew it. It's a good development. On our way to anarchy and subsequently division. Thanks to Buhari and his Federal security. Why are you the one sharing this news with us though sarkki? What's happening. Where's helinues, tunjiajayi, uptimum123 and your fellow Yoruba one Nigeria/Buharist compatriots?

The reality is wakili is not guilty of any offense.

But the media and rumour mongers have spread lot of fake news that makes him and his clan a scape goat.

Wakili is a clan leader not a warlord.

Lands were bought in some part of Oyo state by fulanis. When rumour mongers encouraged by the media comes to attack you, aren't you going to protect your asset by fighting back.

These yoruba people went to carry an old man labelled him a warlord, parade him in front of their media and now they are having a chestbeating orgasm.

It is now crystal clear that this government is the one sending these terrorists to terrorize us on yoruba land. God will never forgive buhari for this and those ing him, this country is dead and disintegration is the solution to this problem.
God destroys the bastard and cow brain president

Well I don't blame the Police, if an old man and his three malnourished looking accomplices were the spearheads of a campaign of terror that saw to the annexation of ancestral homelands etc... I'll personally lock up all the OPC for such embarrassment. We were all expecting Wakili to be one young and tough looking motherfuc*ER for goodness sake!

loopman:


Some of you Igbos are really silly!!

Nooooo, don't hold the fulani that is killing you into extinction, start attacking Igbos.

Go ahead.!

Always going about saying nonsense. What useless south and who the f*** is ojuku? It's Yorubas' war and no one needs your nonsense contribution. Such trash.

why hand him Over to security operatives when they could have just wasted them without no one noticing?
They wanted glorification of press, media and the populace but they also forgot the head terrorists lives in aso rock and he won't be pleased with them[b][/b]

Shut up

Who sold land to him?

Weren't you boasting that Wakali is the most Powerful Fulani man alive that no Yoruba man alive could touch him just last week?

So you are disappointed that an ordinary OPC operative captured him like a chicken.

Next time he won't be so lucky to be alive.

Boasting.

No problem, let Wakili tell the police same thing when they are interrogating him even with glaring evidence

This will teach OPC a lesson not to hand over next time...... just do the needful without no trace and media

Was it not the son of the idiot Fulani herdsmen that was evicted in igangan that boasted about Wakali's strength on social media.

Is that not where people like yourself picked his story from and started boasting with him?

Calling him the Sunday Igboho of Fulanis.

Like I told you, the idiot won't be so lucky next time.


I bet it with you.
