File photo: Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke

Osun State Government and the leadership of the All Progressives Congress, on Monday differed on the expected outcome after the meeting the state governor, Ademola Adeleke, had with the Inspector General of Police, Olatunji Disu.

The PUNCH reports that the visiting IG had told the governor that the Commissioner of Police in the state, Ibrahim Gotan, informed him that some wanted suspects have been found to be hibernating in the Government House.

Adeleke, however dismissed the allegations, saying Gotan had acted unprofessionally by deliberately refusing to arrest criminals that are reportedly hiding behind the political shield of the APC.

Reacting to the IGP’s comment during his visit to the governor, the state Commissioner for Information, Kolapo Alimi in a video circulated through the social media on Monday, said Disu’s remarks may embolden criminals in the state.
