OFFA Descendants Union (ODU), an umbrella association of indigenes of Offa ancient town, has asked police authority to be thorough in the investigation of robbery incident which occurred in Offa in April to ensure equity and justice.
Reacting to claims by the police at a press conference in Abuja that some of the suspects arrested in connection with the robbery incident had implicated the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, the ODU president, Alhaji Najeem Yasin, and the secretary general, Hadjia (Chief) Mrs Wosilat Tinuke Macarthy, in a statement said that Saraki had always considered Offa as a second home.
Alhaji Yasin, who said that the community would not want to prejudice the ongoing investigation by the police on the robbery case, added that the Offa people are well-bred citizens and are always appreciative of a kind gesture and immeasurable benevolence.
“The community, therefore, holds the Senate President in high esteem, however, this is not to distract or disturb the investigation by the police.
Considering the sensitive nature of this matter, the community will appreciate if all the social media and media outfits would validate all reports before dissemination.
