The National President of Oro Community in Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, Bode Alayoku has described as false and misleading media reports suggesting that one of the arrested gang leaders of the recent bank robbery in Offa, Kunle Ogunleye, aka ‘Arrow,’ is a native of the community.
In a statement released to newsmen, Alayoku said the suspect is not a native of Oror but from Etan Aiyegbaju in Ekiti State.
He explained that the suspect was nabbed in Oro by the Police while he was allegedly trying to escape from justice.
Meanwhile, the Speaker, Kwara State House of Assembly, Dr. Ali Ahmad, has reiterated the commitment and dedication of the House to supporting the State Police Command to achieve success in its bid to rid Kwara State of crime and criminality.
He also enjoined the Police to ensure that its officers and men operated within the ambit of law and continue to discharge their duties professionally.
