Ogun police confirms arrest of blogger over publication against Amosun's wife

The Ogun state police command has confirmed the arrest
of Emmanuel Ojo, a blogger, for allegedly publishing a
Facebook post where he accused the first lady of Ogun
state, Oufunsho Amosun of allegedly laundering $300,000
in London. Ojo did a story a while back, alleging that the
wife of the Ogun State governor was quizzed in London for
money laundering, a story the state government has
described as false. Mrs Amosun also denied the
allegations.
The police public relations officer in the state, Muyiwa
Adejobi, while confirming Emmanuel's arrest, said the
police command received a complaint from the state
government over what they termed a false publication.
He said Emmanuel is currently being detained at the
command’s headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta, for
questioning.
“We received a complaint from the state government
on the suspect, and he was arrested. Presently he is
with us at Eleweran, we are still conducting our
investigations. If he is found wanting he will be
charged to court accordingly.” he told Vanguard.
Meanwhile the Secretary to the State government, Taiwo
Adeoluwa, confirmed that the state government indeed
lodged a complaint to the police against the blogger but
however claimed the governor was not involved.
