Tinubu orders withdrawal of police escorts from VIPs
Obesere was attacked on Friday by suspected thugs while he and his band were performing at a burial ceremony attended by dignitaries.
According to the statement, about 253 people are still in captivity.
It was learnt that the armed thugs stormed the venue and launched a violent attack, destroying the band’s musical equipment and assaulting members.
The current government seems more intent on weakening parties than strengthening our democracy—seeking to fragment the PDP, Labour Party, SDP, and others,” Mr Obi alleged.
The CAN president noted that the pattern of violence “points unmistakably to a Christian genocide.’’
Mr Agbese, 81, died on Monday in Lagos, according to a statement by the family.
Mr Ayanlade said the suspects, led by one Ifeoluwa Julius, had long been on the command’s watch list for alleged involvement in violent crimes.
“These acts of barbarity have no place in a civilised society,” said Mr Abubakar.
The meeting is scheduled to take place on Tuesday at the NEC Hall, PDP National Secretariat, Wadata Plaza, Abuja, between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
