FILE: Senator Francis Fadahunsi
Senator representing Osun East Senatorial District, Francis Fadahunsi, has left the Osun State Police Command headquarters in Osogbo after hours of questioning over alleged inciting comments made at a campaign rally.
Recall that Fadahunsi honoured a police invitation on Wednesday, reporting to the State Criminal Investigation Department for questioning over a campaign video from an All Progressives Congress rally in Ilesa, in which his remark was interpreted as urging his supporters to “kill” members of the rival Accord Party.
The Osun State Police Command had on Tuesday directed the senator to appear before the SCID, describing the alleged remarks as threatening, inciting and capable of heightening tension ahead of the Osun State governorship election scheduled for Saturday.
After hours at the police headquarters, Fadahunsi was seen leaving the facility with an entourage in a video shared by News Central.
