The Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has demanded the immediate arrest and investigation of Senator Francis Fadahunsi over a viral video in which the lawmaker was allegedly heard calling for the killing of Accord Party leaders, supporters and their family members ahead of Saturday’s governorship election.
Addressing journalists in Osogbo, Adeleke said he had reported the matter to the Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, and demanded Fadahunsi’s investigation and arrest, adding that the IGP confirmed the existence of the video and assured him of immediate action.
“The second issue has to do with the viral video of a serving Senator, Francis Fadahunsi, who today called for the killing of Accord Party leaders, supporters and their families. In the video, the Senator even threatened that where they cannot get Accord Party leaders, they should kill their wives and children,” Adeleke said.
“This is now beyond politics. This is now a national security threat that requires the attention of Mr President through the Office of the National Security Adviser.”
