The Osun State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), a Superintendent of Police, Opalola Yemisi Olawoyin, while confirming the arrest, said: “The police Command frowned and condemned the act in totality as the erring police officers are currently in detention since Thursday, 10th of August and are m undergoing investigation and eventual disciplinary procedure of orderly room trial for their unprofessional conduct while the senior officer among them has been queried accordingly.
