Okota Polling Violence: Ademola not Our member - OPC Gani Adams


 Reaffirms group's commitment to democracy. Publicity Secretary of the Oodua Peoples Congress,(OPC) Barrister Yinka Oguntimehin, said the man killed by the mob yesterday at Okota, Lagos, is not a member of the Aare Gani Adams - led members of the OPC.

 "I need to say it clearly that Ademola is not a member of our group. Ours is a group of professionals,and well educated members.We have our structure across the country, and everybody can attest to the fact that the Aare Gani Adams- led members of the OPC are not vagabonds or thugs. For a very long time now, we have transited into a brand new OPC, with a clear-cut ideology. And part of our ideologies is to ensure peace, across the country,most especially, in the south west." Oguntimehin, urged Nigerians to remain peaceful till the end of the election process. "From the turnouts of people across the country, I think Nigerians are committed to this democracy. We have started well, and I will urge all the electorate to remain peaceful,by cooperating with the police, so as to ensure a free, fair and credible election." he said. Signed: Barrister Yinka Oguntimehin Publicity Secretary Oodua Peoples Congress.
