By Sodiq Lawal

As the local government election holds in the State of Osun, the Police have arrested a notorious PDP thug popularly called Oluremo of Iremo in Iremo, Ile Ife.

An eye witness, Mr Rasheed Adegoke said the cultist was arrested for using harmful weapons such as gun and axe to threaten the lives of party agents and voters who had arrived at the polling unit.

Adegoke said the notorious cultist nearly created panic at exactly 8:15am at Iremo road leading to Ooni’s palace, a development which triggered some party agents to call the attention of the police.

It was learnt that the cultist ran away when the police arrived but was later apprehended by the combined effort of the residents of the area and the Police.

As at the press time of filling this report, normalcy has been restored to the area as the men of the police force were seen trying to maintain peace.
